Apartments for sale in Nueva AndalucÃa under €1.5 million span a meaningful slice of inventory across the area’s main residential clusters. These include Aloha, Centro Plaza, Magna Marbella, and the streets between Las Brisas and Los Naranjos. Two-bedroom apartments typically start at €450,000 to €600,000. Three-bedroom apartments typically run €750,000 to €1.4 million depending on building, finish, and amenity proximity. This is the most active segment of the Nueva AndalucÃa apartment market. Enquiry velocity and inventory turnover are both highest at this band. This guide covers what’s available under €1.5 million, what’s within walking distance, and how to weigh the price-versus-location trade-offs.
Nueva AndalucÃa is the area immediately north of Puerto Banús, with four golf courses (Las Brisas, Los Naranjos, Aloha, Magna Marbella) anchoring its character. The apartment inventory clusters across several sub-areas, each with its own price band and walking-distance profile. For the full area context, see our Nueva AndalucÃa area page.
The commercial heart of Nueva AndalucÃa, sometimes called Centro Plaza, sits on the road running between Puerto Banús and the Aloha Golf Club. The area is pedestrian-friendly with cafés, restaurants, supermarkets (Mercadona, Carrefour Express), pharmacies, and the central commercial cluster within walking distance.
Apartments here are predominantly two- and three-bedroom units in low-rise complexes built across the 1980s and 1990s, typically priced €450,000 to €1.2 million. The strongest fit for buyers prioritising walkability over plot size.
The streets around Aloha Golf Club include apartment complexes set across landscaped grounds, often with shared pools and gardens. Aloha is the cluster closest to Aloha College and tends to attract the strongest family demand.
Aloha-cluster apartments typically run €600,000 to €1.4 million for two- and three-bedroom units. Many complexes back onto the golf course or have partial course views, with premiums on frontline-golf units.
The streets surrounding the Magna Marbella nine-hole course are predominantly apartment territory, with mid-tier pricing for two- and three-bedroom apartments typically running €500,000 to €1.2 million. Good fit for golf-focused buyers wanting course views without paying the frontline-golf premium of Las Brisas or Aloha.
The residential pockets between Las Brisas and Los Naranjos golf courses include apartment complexes with strong amenity access (shared pools, gardens, security) and easy walking to either course. Apartments here typically run €700,000 to €1.5 million.
The entry tier sits in this band.
Typical inventory:
Specification: Variable. Many properties at this band are in original or partially renovated condition. Expect to budget €30,000 to €100,000 for refurbishment if you want to bring the unit to current standards. Newer-build units at the upper end of this band (post-2010) typically have modern kitchens, AC throughout, and current bathroom specifications.
Walking distances: Most properties in this band sit within 10 minutes’ walk of Centro Plaza commercial centre, 15 to 25 minutes’ walk to Puerto Banús, and 10 to 20 minutes’ walk to one or more of the Golf Valley courses.
Who this tier fits: First-time Nueva AndalucÃa buyers, entry-level investors targeting short-term rental yield, retirees downsizing to a lock-and-leave apartment with manageable maintenance, peak-summer holiday-home buyers wanting Golf Valley access at a manageable budget.
The mid-tier of the Nueva AndalucÃa apartment market.
Typical inventory:
Specification: Stronger than the entry tier. Most properties in this band have been renovated within the past 10 years, with modern kitchens (often with Bosch, Siemens, or higher-tier appliances), AC throughout, and current bathroom specifications. Smart home features (lighting, climate control) are increasingly common.
Walking distances: Properties in this band cover the full range from Centro Plaza-adjacent (5 minutes’ walk to commercial centre) to the slightly further pockets near Las Brisas and Aloha (10 to 15 minutes’ walk).
Who this tier fits: Family buyers prioritising space and school access, working-age remote-working couples, more committed full-year residents, and investors with stronger appetite for capital appreciation alongside yield.
The upper end of apartments for sale in Nueva AndalucÃa under €1.5 million.
Typical inventory:
Specification: High specification typical at this band. Pedro Peña-style interiors are not yet typical at this band (those start at the next tier up), but full Gaggenau or Miele kitchens, underfloor heating, smart home integration, and contemporary bathroom specifications are common in well-presented properties.
Walking distances: Properties at this band include some of the best-positioned addresses in Nueva AndalucÃa, with several complexes within 5–10 minutes’ walk of both Centro Plaza and one of the Golf Valley courses. Aloha College is within walking distance (15 to 20 minutes) for some addresses but most families will drive (5 to 10 minutes).
Who this tier fits: Established Nueva AndalucÃa buyers wanting a primary or substantial secondary residence, families committed to the area for school years, buyers downsizing from a larger Marbella or wider Costa del Sol villa, and golf-focused buyers wanting strong proximity without entering the frontline-golf villa price tier.
The walking-distance map matters for daily life. Five anchor destinations and the typical times from a central Nueva AndalucÃa apartment address.
5 to 15 minutes’ walk from most apartment addresses across the area. The Centro Plaza shopping centre, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, pharmacies, and small commercial businesses concentrate here. For daily life (coffee, groceries, dry cleaning, banking, casual dining), Centro Plaza covers most needs.
10 to 25 minutes’ walk from most Nueva AndalucÃa apartment addresses, depending on starting point. Apartments at the southern edge of Nueva AndalucÃa (closer to the AP-7) sit closest. The walk crosses the AP-7 via pedestrian overpass and runs through the commercial streets of Puerto Banús to the marina. For more on the destination, see our Puerto Banús area page.
5 to 15 minutes’ walk from most apartment addresses, with the specific course depending on starting point. Las Brisas and Los Naranjos sit at the northern end of Nueva AndalucÃa; Aloha is central; Magna Marbella is southern. Many apartments sit within a 5-minute walk of one course and a 10-minute walk of two more.
10 to 25 minutes’ walk depending on starting point, or 5 to 10 minutes by car. Most family buyers with children at Aloha College drive rather than walk, though the school is genuinely walkable from a portion of Nueva AndalucÃa addresses.
15 to 30 minutes’ walk depending on starting point. The beach is accessible via pedestrian routes through Puerto Banús or via the direct route past the Marbella Arena. Many residents drive (5 to 10 minutes) rather than walk.
Three quick comparisons for buyers cross-shopping Nueva AndalucÃa against neighbouring areas.
Versus Puerto Banús apartments. Puerto Banús apartments typically price 30–50% higher than equivalent specification in Nueva AndalucÃa. The trade-off is marina lifestyle and beachfront proximity against a more residential, family-friendly character. For our take on choosing between the two, see our Puerto Banús vs Nueva AndalucÃa guide.
Versus Marbella Golden Mile apartments. Golden Mile apartments typically price 50–80% higher than equivalent specification in Nueva AndalucÃa. The trade-off is the prestige and density of the Golden Mile lifestyle against the space and school proximity of Nueva AndalucÃa. For more on Golden Mile apartments specifically, see our Marbella Golden Mile area page.
Versus San Pedro de Alcántara apartments. San Pedro apartments typically price 20–30% below Nueva AndalucÃa for equivalent specification. The trade-off is the more authentic Spanish-town character of San Pedro against the international and amenity-led character of Nueva AndalucÃa.
Three practical considerations specific to the Nueva AndalucÃa apartment market.
Community fees and what they cover. Apartment complexes in Nueva AndalucÃa range widely in fees, from approximately €120 per month for smaller older complexes to €600 per month for the largest gated complexes with full amenity infrastructure. Verify what is included (pool, garden, security, lift, building insurance, reserves) before committing.
Short-term rental rules. Some apartment complexes restrict short-term tourist rental at the community level. If rental yield is part of your purchase thesis, verify rental rules with the community administrator before purchase. Long-term rental (3+ months) is typically less restricted.
Building age and major works. Apartment buildings built in the 1980s and 1990s sometimes require major works (lift replacement, façade renovation, roof works, plumbing upgrades) that can result in extraordinary community-fee assessments. Verify the building’s reserves position and any known upcoming works before committing.

Nueva AndalucÃa apartments typically run from approximately €450,000 for older two-bedroom units in entry-tier complexes through €1.5 million for the best three- and four-bedroom apartments and penthouses in prime complexes. Above €1.5 million, the inventory continues to €2 million-plus for larger penthouses and frontline-golf apartments backing onto Las Brisas or Aloha.
The entry tier sits in the older Centro Plaza and Magna Marbella complexes, with two-bedroom apartments starting at approximately €450,000. These complexes are typically 1980s or 1990s builds in walking distance of the commercial centre, often requiring some renovation to bring to current standards.
Yes. Most Nueva AndalucÃa apartment addresses sit 10 to 25 minutes’ walk from Puerto Banús marina, with the southern edge of the area (closer to the AP-7) sitting closest. The walk crosses the AP-7 via pedestrian overpass and runs through the commercial streets of Puerto Banús. Most residents walk for casual visits and drive for evenings out or shopping with bags to carry.
Family buyers in Nueva AndalucÃa typically prioritise proximity to Aloha College, the area’s main international school. The strongest family fit sits in the Aloha and Centro Plaza-adjacent complexes, which offer the shortest commute (walking or 5-minute drive) to the school. Complexes with shared pools, gardens, and 24-hour security add to the family appeal.
For investors targeting short-term rental yield with appropriate tourist licensing, well-presented two- and three-bedroom apartments in the €600,000 to €1 million band typically deliver among the strongest yield-to-price ratios in the wider Marbella market. The combination of year-round demand from international families, golf tourists, and corporate visitors makes Nueva AndalucÃa rental yields more stable across the year than peak-summer-dependent areas like Puerto Banús.
Yes for buyers prioritising family infrastructure, golf access, and a balance between residential calm and amenity proximity. Nueva AndalucÃa has Aloha College within the area, multiple supermarkets and pharmacies, restaurants and cafés, and easy walking or short-driving access to Puerto Banús for weekend amenities. The full-year resident base in Nueva AndalucÃa is one of the strongest in the wider Marbella market. For more context, see our Nueva AndalucÃa buyer’s guide.
