Initially developed as a retreat for European aristocrats in the 1950s, Marbella has blossomed into one of Europe’s premier vacation and residential communities. Situated in Spain’s Andalusian region, Marbella looks out upon the clear blue waters of the western Mediterranean, a fact that has made its Puerto Banus marina the anchorage for many of the world’s fastest, largest, and most elegantly-appointed yachts. The sea’s fortuitous nature does not end with the many boating excursions it allows, however, as the Playas de la Bajadilla and de Fontanilla are beloved for their warm and welcoming waters as well as the many happy, beautiful people who have made a science out of expending their youthful energy under the golden sun that touches their sands. The greater metropolitan area, which includes the Marbella Golden Mile and the ‘Old City’, also has its share of attractions, as the settlement’s history spans back to the time of the Phoenicians and their Carthaginian successors. For this reason, the area hosts several landmarks and architectural wonders that have been left by civilizations that include the Romans, Visigoths, and Moors, as well as fine churches that were erected following the ‘Reconquista’ of southern Spain. Today, the many luxury estates that have sprouted up in the area, both near the foot of the nearby mountain range and closer to the sea, draw from a mixture of modern, especially Minimalist, and traditional Mediterranean styles. Whatever type of property someone is looking for, however, Marbella East, given its other amenities, which include a fine culinary tradition and international flavor, is sure to have numerous properties that anyone would love to call ‘home’.EXCEPTIONAL GROUNDS IN AN EXCELLENT LOCATIONSOUTH FACING VILLA IN PRESTIGIOUS LOS MONTEROS UNIQUE DUPLEX PENTHOUSE DELIGHTFUL CONTEMPORARY SOUTH-FACING VILLASUPERBLY SPACIOUS VILLACOMPLETE PRIVACY AND VIEWS OVER THE MEDITERRANEANBEAUTIFUL VILLA WITH ALL THE EXTRASBEAUTIFUL MARBELLA EAST HOME
