Marbella’s Golden Triangle encompasses three highly desirable residential areas: Marbella, Benahavís and Estepona. If you want to be sure that you are buying a property in a location that will always be desirable and therefore easy to sell should that need arise, then this ‘Traingle’ is the place to start your search.
Marbella
This may be the best-known name out of the three. From a real estate perspective, there has been a shortage of new properties here due to the lack of availability of building licences. As a result, there were few new build properties in this area. However, this has been resolved recently and the Marbella area, which extends to Cabopino in the east and Guadalmina in the west, is now delivering several new developments of the high class one would expect to find in Marbella. The advantage of choosing anywhere within the Marbella municipal area is its wealth of amenities, whether for education, healthcare, shopping or leisure.
Benahavís
The area of Benahavís extends beyond the picturesque village of the same name to include the exclusive enclave of La Zagaleta as well as that of La Quinta. It is one of the wealthiest municipalities in Spain, but this does not mean that all the properties available here are in an exorbitant price range. The area is popular because of its proximity to excellent amenities, including some fabulous restaurants and local schools. It is also favoured by many buyers for its elevated position, as well as its landscape and panoramic views.
Estepona
Estepona, with its New Golden Mile, has become the location of choice for a growing number of new developments, both apartments and villas, in a broad price range. Its established urbanisations, such as Los Flamingos and La Resina, are sought after for their high quality properties and proximity to golf courses, while the beachside of this stretch of coast road is renowned for its select handful of upmarket complexes. El Paraiso is another well-established residential area where the properties range from grand mansions to studio apartments. It is popular thanks to its great golf course, its numerous green zones, and its wealth of shops, restaurants and bars.
