“the Coast’s weather is unrivalled in Europe, enabling residents and visitors to enjoy excellent outdoor living throughout the year”
Costa del Sol
Chic contemporary living… and the allure of traditional Mediterranean charm
The enduring appeal of living on the Costa del Sol has never been a mystery. For discerning people seeking a new home, or holiday residence, away from chilly northern climes, the Coast’s weather is unrivalled in Europe, enabling residents and visitors to enjoy excellent outdoor living throughout the year. But that is just part of the story of the Sun Coast’s pre-eminence as a welcoming home away from home for buyers from all parts of the globe. Spain joined the European Union in 1986 and over the past two decades the Costa del Sol’s infrastructure has been radically transformed, becoming among the most sophisticated and advanced in Europe, including a state-of-the-art new terminal and recently completed second runway at Málaga international airport; a dual-system coastal highway and tollway between the Coast’s eastern and western extremities (meaning motorists can travel from one end to the other without passing a traffic light); and a high-speed rail network to Madrid (less than two and a half hours) and other Spanish major cities. In addition, families are well catered for with an excellent choice of highly-regarded international schools.
Also popularly known as the “Costa del Golf�, the Costa del Sol is home to the highest concentration of golf courses in Spain, more than 60, including such venerable clubs as Valderrama (venue for the 1997 Ryder Cup) and Las Brisas (host for the 1973 and 1989 World Cups). For those not yet bitten by the golfing bug, the area also offers an extensive and varied choice of other sporting amenities, from the sedate to the more vigorous: horse-riding, mountain hiking, tennis, paddle tennis, lawn bowls, cricket, rugby, water-skiing, rafting and ballooning, with the famous Sierra Nevada ski pistes just a two-hour drive away.

“The Costa del Sol is renowned both for its traditional Mediterranean cuisine and its fusion of international gastronomy�
During summer, at the Coast’s luxury beach clubs it is not uncommon to find a visiting celebrity relaxing on a sunbed near yours, checking out the latest collections at Puerto Banús’s chic boutiques, or savouring a cocktail in Marbella’s über-fashionable bars and nightclubs. Or enjoying a picture-postcard al fresco lunch or dinner by the sea… The Costa del Sol is renowned both for its traditional Mediterranean cuisine and its fusion of international gastronomy, from Michelin-star restaurants to tapas bars, and beach chiringuitos to inland ventas. The Coast is also the ideal base from which to explore Málaga’s quaint white villages and Andalucia’s culturally diverse historic cities (Sevilla, Granada, Córdoba), as well as being Europe’s main gateway to the exotic attractions of northern Africa.
Los Monteros Marbella’s definitive luxury setting
In many ways Los Monteros is a microcosm of the privileged charms and attractions of Marbella. Extending from what are generally considered to be the municipality’s finest beaches, with lavish penthouses and frontline beach mansions offering seaside living at its best, through the meandering fairways of Rio Real Golf and low-density villa, townhouse and apartment developments, up into the sweeping sierra mountains of Marbella’s picturesque outskirts, with breath-taking views over the Mediterranean… Los Monteros beach and Los Monteros heights offer a wide and varied portfolio of high-end homes for the most discerning property buyers.

Los Monteros was Marbella’s most prestigious address well before the city’s dramatic growth, with the wealthy and famous (including, most recently, Antonio Banderas) attracted to its serene, natural location just a few minutes from the city centre… a pleasant walk along the beach to Cabopino marina and a convenient drive to Málaga international airport and other key coastal centres.
With its meticulously maintained communal gardens and elegant homes, Los Monteros Playa is a haven of opulent – yet discreet – living, in a rigorously guarded secure environment. Divided by the main coastal highway, the beach and mountain halves of Los Monteros are linked by the Rio Real golf course, opened in 1965. Since then two other courses have been developed in the area, Santa Clara and Marbella Golf Country Club, with several others situated nearby.
