Property for sale in Marbella Old Town

For foreign visitors and property buyers in particular, the main focus has traditionally been on the frontline beach areas, residential zones and hillside country clubs that fan out from Marbella town. In essence, greater Marbella consists of four areas: the coastal stretch, with its resort hotels and apartments; the villas and apartments in suburban areas and lining golf courses just inland to the west and east of the town; the country club environments in the foothills of the coastal mountain range; and finally, the town of Marbella itself.

Much loved by visitors, locals, foreign residents and homeowners alike, Marbella town is primarily seen as a wonderful place to shop, dine, partake in café society, access professional services and enjoy the beaches and nightlife along the Paseo Marítimo seaside walkway. The Casco Antiguo, or historic quarter, is particularly well loved, with its picturesque (largely car-free) cobblestone streets, quaint little squares and excellent range of shops, cafés, tapas bars, antique stores and first class restaurants, as well as a small but elegant selection of boutique hotels.
