Nueva Andalucia Area Guide

Nueva Andalucia, Welcome to the Neighbourhood

Nueva Andalucía is the largest neighbourhood in Marbella, and extends over several square kilometres. Nueva Andalucia is relatively quiet in the winter, but in the summer this neighbourhood bursts to life with many seeking an escape or holiday. It was created by Madrid developer José Banús Mas, who came to Marbella in 1962 and acquired the land. Construction of Puerto Banús began in 1965, it was inaugurated in 1968, and the main infrastructure of Nueva Andalucía was installed shortly afterwards. The area of Nueva Andalucia is perfectly situated with one of its biggest attractions being a large residential estate, with reasonable access to the highway and Marbella, as well as, only a short taxi ride home from the Puerto Banús. There is no shortage of commercial centres, restaurants and shops either. Visitors love the privacy Nueva Andalucia can provide, yet adore the easy access to the rest of the popular hot spots on the Costa del Sol.
