The ‘Hanging Gardens’ of Marbella
Though it is not an official name, this is the rather exotic sounding way local people describe what is one of the most elegant and exclusive parts of Marbella.
Situated below Ricardo Soriano, the ‘hanging gardens’ area extends between Marbella’s main avenue and its sandy beaches; in reality, the area forms an extension of the famous Golden Mile, and is a continuation of its air of opulence and sophistication.
Here beautifully styled, timelessly elegant apartment complexes border attractive avenues lined with palm trees and delightfully devoid of heavy traffic. It is an area that is a delight to walk around in, as you make your way to one of the pretty cafes or eateries, or indeed en route to the sandy beaches and the beautifully styled ‘Paseo Marítimo’ promenade that skirts the shoreline.
The area is dotted with excellent restaurants, elegant cafes and cake shops, as well as quality shops and beach clubs, as this is an exclusive area with luxurious modern style apartments and penthouses situated between the Golden Mile and the amenities and diversions of Marbella town, with its pretty historic quarter also within walking distance.

The timeless architectural styling, first-class amenities, exclusive ambience and also large private gardens, swimming pools and concierge service make this one of the finest real estate options in and around Marbella, and with the town, beaches and all other facilities within easy reach, these luxurious beachside penthouse apartments in Marbella offer tasteful jet-set living.
Parks, beach walks wooded areas and classic, magnificent views either to sea or of the majestic La Concha Mountain that towers of Marbella make this an iconic area – and one that you should became acquainted with if you are looking for a first-class pied-à- terre in Marbella, a convenient permanent home close to all amenities, or a beachside holiday property with great rental income potential.
