Reasons to buy a property in Marbella

Marbella is one of those internationally renowned destinations that simply never goes out of fashion. Blessed with one of the best climates in Europe it attracts sun worshippers, celebrities and even world leaders to its shores on the Costa del Sol each year.

Nestled under the watchful eye of La Concha Mountain, the town is also home to the glamorous resort of Puerto Banús, where a dazzling array of super yachts, designer shops, sports cars and trendy restaurants compete for space. So the all-important question is, should you invest in a new home or holiday rental here? To help you decide we’ve compiled a quick top ten.

1-Climate

Marbella on average has 320 days of sunshine a year, making this one of the best places in Europe to enjoy a healthy, al fresco lifestyle. You are also guaranteed to get a good all-year round suntan.

2-Celebrities and famous faces

This resort town has so many visiting celebrities it can often feel like you are walking around a Hello Magazine photo shoot. In the past years we’ve had George Clooney, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, David Beckham, Eva Longoria, the BBC Top Gear team and countless reality TV stars, not to mention Sergio Ramos, Vicente del Bosque and the cream of Spanish celebrity and their luxury properties.

3- Property opportunities

Marbella’s appeal is reflected in its property market, which was among the first to recover in Spain and is now looking increasingly buoyant again.

4-Attractive town

Marbella boasts several beautifully kept parks, a stunning beachfront, views of the Mediterranean, Moroccan coastline and Gibraltar, and the iconic La Concha Mountain to the North. Towns don’t come much prettier than Marbella.

5-Proximity to nearby cities and towns

On Marbella’s doorstep you’ll find some of Andalucía’s top destinations, including Ronda, Tarifa, Seville and Málaga. Granada and Europe’s most southern ski-resort, the Sierra Nevada, are also just a two and half hour car drive away.

6-Lifestyle change

When the sun is shining everybody slows down and appreciates life a little more. You will have plentiful opportunities to play golf, go for an evening stroll, eat al fresco or spend the day at the beach.

7-The Old Town

Although Marbella is a very modern town, many visitors are unaware on their first visit that there is a charming Casco Antiguo (old quarter) in the heart of Marbella. Its narrow, cobbled streets are filled with bustling tapas bars, trendy restaurants and some of the most attractive buildings in the town.

8-Distance from the rest of Europe

It really doesn’t take that long to get home to Europe’s capitals. Less than an hour away is Málaga’s International Airport, where a flight back home can take as little as two and a half hours.

9-Puerto Banús

Fancy doing a bit of celebrity spotting? Here’s the place to do it. Sit yourself in a café opposite the eye wateringly elegant super yachts and do some people watching, you’ll be surprised to see how many famous faces are lurking behind oversized sunglasses.

10-Wining and Dining

Thanks in part to the number of international visitors, Marbella has a culturally diverse, thriving restaurant and bar scene to suit all tastes and budgets.

These are just some of things that make Marbella special. But don’t take our word for it – come and experience it for yourself! Reasons to buy a property in Marbella with Nevado Realty
