Marbella has an extremely diverse real estate market known worldwide for its extravagant and exclusive properties. Some of Marbellas unique duplex penthouses are worth almost 10 million euros, however, individual and very private villas with extremely large plots prevail in the most luxurious segments of Marbella’s real estate market. The majority of the upscale properties are located in the most exclusive enclaves, named “The Golden Triangle”, encompassing Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona.

Some of the most beautiful real estate jewels can be found in Sierra Blanca, Guadalmina Baja or the privileged La Zagaleta, with plots that range between 3.000m2 and 10.000m2 and prices from 5 to 25 million euros plus.
