About Nueva Andalucía — Marbella’s Golf Valley
Nueva Andalucía is the largest residential district in Marbella, covering approximately 10 km² of rolling valley, golf fairways, and low-density residential communities. Situated immediately inland from Puerto Banús and west of the Golden Mile, it occupies a uniquely central position on the western Costa del Sol — close to everything yet retaining a tranquil, suburban character unlike the coastal strip.
The area takes its name from the urban development promoted by José Banús in 1964. The 1965 construction of the iconic bullring (now Marbella Arena) marked one of its early landmarks, but it was the arrival of Las Brisas Golf in 1968 and Aloha Golf in 1975 that cemented its identity as Golf Valley. Today, Nueva Andalucía is Marbella’s most complete residential neighbourhood — a place where Scandinavian families, international professionals, golf enthusiasts and luxury buyers from across Europe have chosen to put down roots.
Golf — The Heart of Nueva Andalucía
Four championship courses define the Golf Valley and give the area its identity:
- Real Club de Golf Las Brisas: Opened 1968, designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. A par-72 course with a rich history of hosting European Tour events. Widely regarded as one of the finest courses on the Costa del Sol.
- Aloha Golf Club: Opened 1975. Designed by Javier Arana, the legendary Spanish golf architect. A traditional, tree-lined parkland course with mountain and sea views. Borders some of Nueva Andalucía’s most desirable villa addresses.
- Los Naranjos Golf Club: An 18-hole course adjacent to Aloha, also designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. Known for its orange tree-lined fairways and excellent playing conditions year-round.
- Magna Marbella Golf: A 9-hole course within the Magna Marbella complex, popular with residents seeking quick rounds. Also features Dama de Noche — a floodlit 9-hole course for evening play.
In addition, La Quinta Golf, Guadalmina Golf, and Atalaya Golf are all within 10 minutes of Nueva Andalucía, giving golf residents access to more than 8 courses within a short drive.
