About Marbella
The Costa del Sol's most upscale town, with a glamorous Puerto Banus marina, a charming old town, and a massive international expat community (Scandinavian, British, and increasingly American). Prices are higher than inland Spain but the year-round sunshine, international schools, and English-friendly infrastructure make the transition easy. The Golden Mile and Nueva Andalucia are the main expat hubs.
