Andara Villas: The best luxury Marbella real estate projects 2025

BY ANDARA VILLAS

There are few things quite as exciting as finding your dream home in a sun-drenched location, like southern Spain’s coveted Costa del Sol.  Since way back in the 1950s, Marbella has been a magnet for people looking for a property for sale on the Costa del Sol, and its pull is still as strong today. The supply is constantly overrun by the demand for apartments, penthouses and villas in Marbella, not only due to the outdoor lifestyle, superb amenities, infrastructure and endless days of sunshine, but due to a perfect storm of lack of available land, labour issues and higher demand from both local and international buyers.

Why buy property in Marbella, Spain?

When you buy property in Marbella (or its environs) you get access to a gilded lifestyle of beaches, beach clubs, gastronomy including Michelin starred restaurants, marina, water sports, designer boutiques and of course a healthy outdoor lifestyle, including world-class golf. There is also a palpable feeling of the region’s history and rich Andalusian culture, creating a unique mix of modernity and tradition, which is hard to resist.

The Golden Triangle

However, it isn’t only Marbella that savvy investors have in their sights, they have now widened their hunting ground to include Marbella’s immediate neighbours; Estepona and Benahavís. Together these three areas are known as the Golden Triangle due to the high price, demand and quality of properties, including some of Europe’s (if not the world’s) most exclusive gated communities.

To help you, we’ve put together a snapshot of the range of luxury property sales currently available in this beautiful part of the world. Here are three examples of favourite properties, starting with an ultra-exclusive La Zagaleta villa for sale, one of the superb mansions in Marbella’s El Madronal, and a duplex furnished by Italian fashion icon Fendi on the Golden Mile Marbella.
