Nagüeles, a combination of modern and classic Marbella

Rocío de Nagüeles is peaceful villa suburb that is part of the Golden Mile; a place where you will find private villas set within large gardens within minutes of Marbella town and the beach.

Turn off the palm-lined avenue of the Golden Mile that connects Puerto Banús and Marbella town, and as you wind your way inland you come to the leafy suburb of Nagüeles. In spite of its proximity to Marbella town, Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía’s Golf Valley, it has a tranquil, secluded feel about it – which is exactly why it was chosen as one of the first villa suburbs in Marbella.

Now well-established and consolidated as one of Marbella’s prime luxury residential areas, Nagüeles is home to a collection of both older villas on expansive private plots and modern homes whose slightly elevated position provides them with fantastic sea views. Look back and you notice you’re midway between the beaches of the Golden Mile and Marbella’s beautiful La Concha Mountain, surrounded by the greenery of mature gardens.

Having always been a favoured area in Marbella, Nagueles has become very sought after, particularly in the past five years, attractive because some of the older properties are ideal for modernisation. Also, from here everything is close by, including the golf courses of Nueva Andalucía, the beaches of the Golden Mile, shopping and eateries in downtown Marbella and its historic Old Town quarter, as well as the beach clubs, top brand boutiques and nightlife of Puerto Banús, not to mention its yacht harbour. For shopping there is the large El Corte Ingles department store and La Cañada mall, both just a few minutes away.

Closer by are the renowned therapeutic Buchinger Clinic, the Swans International School and the open nature of the protected nature reserve surrounding the Sierra Blanca mountain range. Right on your doorstep are the Parque Nagüeles and a dedicated dog park, with the Istán Lake, the Manolo Santana racquet club and also the glamorous Olivia Valere nightclub within easy reach. In all, Nagüeles stands out for being such a secluded, private living environment right in the midst of Marbella’s lifestyle offering.

Modernising opportunities
