Tourism trends have changed, when organizing our holidays we no longer only look for hotels, but we usually book tourist apartments, as much for economic reasons as for freedom in schedules.

Marbella’s Casco Antiguo, or Old Town, is one of the town’s most famous destinations. It is beloved by many for its authenticity and charm, its winding, cobbled lanes and its architecture. As a place to live it is unequalled, thanks to its position in relation to a wealth of amenities such as hospitals and schools, as well as restaurants and boutiques. Furthermore, it is only a few minutes walk from the Old Town to Marbella’s bustling seaside paseo walkway and the beach.
When talking about the property market in Spain it is important to realise that this is a large country with rather distinct sub-markets. For ease of reference these can broadly be classified into 1) the main urban centres, 2) the towns and rural regions, and 3) the ‘Costas’, as the coastal tourist areas have been known since the 1960s.
Given Marbella’s enduring up-market appeal, it is small wonder that many of its most popular neighbourhoods start with the word ‘Golden’.
