Choosing where to stay is the single biggest decision when planning a Marbella villa holiday. Each area has its own character, clientele and rhythm. Here is our concierge team's honest comparison.
The Golden Mile
The most prestigious address in Marbella, running between the old town and Puerto Banús. Expect manicured gardens, beachfront estates and walking distance to legendary beach clubs and the Marbella Club hotel.
Sierra Blanca
An exclusive gated community on the slopes of La Concha mountain, offering panoramic sea views, privacy and 24-hour security — yet only minutes from the beach.
Nueva Andalucía & Golf Valley
The choice for golfers and night owls. Surrounded by championship courses and a short hop from the bars and restaurants of Puerto Banús.
La Zagaleta & Benahavís
For total seclusion, nothing beats the hills above Marbella. La Zagaleta is Europe's most private estate, while the white village of Benahavís is famous as the area's gastronomic capital.
Whatever you value most — beach, golf, dining or privacy — there is a Marbella neighbourhood built for it.
