The area known as the Marbella Golden Mile stretches between the western edge of Marbella city and Puerto Banus, and is considered one of the most exclusive locations of Marbella and the Costa del Sol.
The Heart of the Golden Mile
The Marbella Club Hotel, established around 1953 by Prince Alfonso Hohenlohe, lies at the very heart of this famous stretch which became the centre of social life for the “Jet Set” in the 1960´s and the home of some of Spain and Europe´s most wealthy families. Today still you will see famous international faces in the shops and restaurants of this hot spot. The area is very exclusive and commands higher prices, with some Golden Mile beachfront properties exchanging hands for many millions, and it boasts some of the most impressive Golden Mile villas and estates on the Costa del Sol.
The Marbella Golden Mile is divided into two parts by a motorway that runs through it. Along the motorway are strings of business centres, five-star hotels (including the Marbella Club Hotel mentioned above, and also the famous Puente Romano Hotel), golf course and other services. The beachside of the motorway is fully developed, while on the mountain side there are some areas that are still undergoing development or that offer brand new complexes with properties yet to be occupied. Investment opportunities in this area include properties with spectacular views of mountain and sea.
