Nueva Andalucía has a unique charm of its own. Although it’s technically a suburb of Marbella it exudes glamour, offering a peaceful retreat from the lively atmosphere of nearby Puerto Banús. This makes it one of the most desirable areas to live in. Much because of its location.

Nueva Andalucía is a green oasis, with low-density housing and wide, tree-lined streets weaving through a tranquil community. Located just north of Puerto Banús, it stretches from the Guadaiza River in the west to Rio Verde in the east, and follows the foothills of the Sierra Blanca mountains up to the AP-7 toll road.

Locally known as ‘Golf Valley’, Nueva Andalucia lives up to its name with six golf courses in and around the area. These include the famous La Quinta course, along with Aloha, Las Brisas, Los Naranjos, and the 9-hole courses of Magna Marbella and Dama de Noche. 

There are tennis and padel courts, along with gyms for Crossfit and boxing. For a more relaxed activity, nature lovers can enjoy a walk along the trails through the pine forest at Turtle Lake (Lago de las Tortugas).

Is it family-friendly?

Nueva Andalucía is one of the top areas for families on the Costa del Sol. 
It offers easy access to Spanish, English, and bilingual schools, including Aloha College, one of the most prestigious international schools in Andalucía, catering to students from nursery to school-leaving age. Additionally, German and Swedish schools are just a short drive away.

There are countless after-school activities available, such as martial arts, dance, boxing, and golf. Language schools are also nearby for those who want to improve their Spanish skills.
