The lay of the land
Nueva Andalucía is the Costa's golfing soul — Las Brisas, Aloha, Los Naranjos, La Quinta and Magna Marbella all sit within a 5km radius, and the resulting urbanisations have grown up around the fairways. The valley sits 10 minutes from Banús and the beach but feels mountain-quiet, framed by La Concha's 1,200m wall.
Residentially it's mature and varied: 1970s Andalusian villas with private pools, modern minimalist new-builds, gated front-line-golf complexes, and clusters of low-rise apartments around the Centro Plaza commercial heart. Buyers tend to be families and active retirees who want golf-on-the-doorstep and the Banús lifestyle without living in the marina.

What buyers are doing
Nueva Andalucía sits between San Pedro and Banús on price — €5,500–6,500/m² average, with front-line-golf villas in La Cerquilla regularly above €5M. New-build supply is rising: several boutique 8–20-unit developments are completing, mostly contemporary villas in the €3–8M bracket targeting the international family buyer.
Long-term yields are modest (3–4%) but holiday-let demand for golf-week packages is strong April–October, pushing 6%+ on well-presented villas during the season.

Schools + healthcare
Safety + practicalities
Quiet, gated, and very low-crime — the valley's mostly-residential layout means almost no through-traffic and good security infrastructure on most urbanisations.
