One of the top-ranking Marbella property types is a luxury apartment, and for good reason. These high-quality and highly sought-after properties offer plenty of unique benefits, from penthouses with elevated sea views to beachfront apartments with direct access to the beach.

As the prime resort region of southern Spain, this section of the Costa del Sol has everything you could ever want. From beautiful architecture to beaches with kilometres of golden sand, delicious cuisine to designer shops, plus a range of outdoor activities – Marbella truly has it all.

When it comes to buying property in Marbella, there are numerous luxury apartment complexes to choose from. Traditional or contemporary, private pool or community pool, off-plan or key-ready, there are many choices to make – but Altavista Property can support you through them all.

If you’re hoping to purchase a Marbella apartment as a primary home, the buoyant property market here ensures that it will be a solid investment. As holiday apartments in Marbella are in such high demand, it would also be a smart investment to snap up a second home here as soon as possible, ensuring you get your pick of the best Marbella apartments available.

The extensive range of styles and sizes of apartment developments in Marbella means there’s something to suit every individual’s or family’s preferences. Apartments for sale in Marbella typically come with 2-3 bedrooms and bathrooms, though 4-bed apartments in Marbella are also available in some developments.

These types of residential complexes tend to span several blocks of apartments with communal facilities, such as pools, gyms, spas, gardens, and social areas. You could opt for a large-scale development with 100-200 apartments, a mid-scale development with around 50-70 apartments, or something smaller and more exclusive, with 10-40 apartments.

You’ll have a wide choice of Marbella apartments in resort-style or boutique developments, which have every modern convenience without compromising on aesthetically pleasing architectural finishes. What sways your decision may be an additional feature such as a private sun deck, quick access to the beach, a quieter local atmosphere, or simply the view from the apartment.

Apartments in Marbella are often in privileged locations – if they aren’t directly by the beachfront, they’ll be just a 10-15 minute drive from the action, allowing you to enjoy a more peaceful setting in the greenery that Andalucía also has to offer – giving you the best of both worlds.

There are apartments for sale in the Marbella region both close to central Marbella and further along the coast in either direction, offering easy access to Marbella just a short drive away. High-end property in Puerto Banus is highly requested, while there are more luxury apartments available a little further east in exclusive communities like Elviria and Los Monteros.

Some Marbella apartment buildings are also right next to prime golf courses, and ownership may even give you access to country club perks. Why not browse for golf view apartments in Cabopino, La Cala de Mijas, or the Nueva Andalucía golf valley?

Many prospective buyers are casting their eyes towards the opportunities afforded by the ‘New Golden Mile’. This new hotspot is considered to run just west of Marbella from San Pedro Alcantara to Estepona, forming a ‘Golden Triangle’ between these two areas and upscale Benahavis.

There are plenty of new modern developments to be found in Cancelada, Selwo, and Atalaya Alta. It’s much easier to find a prime beachfront apartment in Estepona Bay, while still being close to Marbella itself. Meanwhile, there are also developments near prestigious golf resorts in this area, such as Los Arqueros near Benahavis and El Campanario near Estepona.

It could not be easier to reach Marbella thanks to its proximity to key transport links on the coast.

Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is around 50km from Marbella centre, so you will be just a 35–45 minute drive away from relaxing at your luxury apartment when you arrive at the international airport – which offers flights to and from over a hundred destinations and two dozen countries.

You can drive directly from Malaga to Marbella along the A-7 motorway or the AP-7 toll road that connects most towns and urbanisations along the coast. Marbella is also around 80km from Gibraltar International Airport across the border, which operates flights from several major UK airports, and is an hour’s drive away along the coastal road from the southwest.

One of the biggest draws for buyers of property in this area is the paradisal beaches. As a central coastal town, Marbella is the biggest jewel in the region’s crown, with long stretches of golden sand to the east and west of the Puerto Deportivo de Marbella marina.

The Marbella area boasts access to more than 20 beaches along 27km of shoreline, from western San Pedro de Alcantara to eastern Cabopino. Many of these are Blue Flag beaches, recognised by the Foundation for Environmental Education for the safety and quality of their facilities.

There is truly something for everyone – you will be spoilt for choice when selecting a section to visit from your beachside apartment, from peaceful sunbathing spots and sophisticated hotel restaurants to family-friendly water sports hubs and beach clubs hosting decadent parties.

It is no wonder, then, that beach apartments in Marbella are consistently in very high demand. Not only for those seeking a second home in a waterside haven, but also for investors looking to build their own portfolio with highly marketable apartments for sale in Marbella.
