Are you looking for a villa for sale in Marbella?
Are you looking for a villa for sale in Marbella, on the Costa del Sol in southern Spain? Welcome to the property catalogue of Rendez-Vous Immo, your estate agency on the coast since 2013.
Marbella is the benchmark municipality for villas on the Costa del Sol, and it is also the most demanding on budget: our selection starts at around €850,000 and half of the properties are above €1.9 million, with exceptional homes reaching ten million and more on the Milla de Oro or in Sierra Blanca. Backing onto the Sierra Blanca and facing due south, the town enjoys a well-known microclimate: more than 320 days of sunshine a year and winters milder than anywhere else on the coast.
The municipality extends over twenty-seven kilometres of coastline, from Cabopino to Guadalmina, and each area has its own logic. The slopes of Nagüeles and Sierra Blanca offer the widest plots and the most open views. The Milla de Oro, between the centre and Puerto Banús, lines up gated developments and direct access to the beach. Nueva Andalucía, in the golf valley, and Guadalmina, on the boundary with Estepona, round out the offer with villas on the courses.
Whether you dream of a modern villa with contemporary lines, a pool and sea views, of an authentic Andalusian-style villa, or whether you are planning a medium-term project on an off-plan villa, we will support you at every stage: assessing your project, finding financing with Spanish banks, assembling the preliminary documents and signing at the notary's office.

Discover Marbella
Marbella holds a place of its own on the Costa del Sol. The Sierra Blanca that towers above it stops the northerly winds and gives the town its microclimate; La Concha, its emblematic peak, rises to 1,215 metres just above the town. It is this setting that made it, as early as the 1950s, Spain's first luxury seaside resort.
Its old quarter has nonetheless kept the look of an Andalusian village: whitewashed lanes, orange trees and terraces around the Plaza de los Naranjos, the former town hall square. Going down towards the sea, the paseo marítimo runs along the town beaches as far as the Alameda park and the Avenida del Mar, where a dozen Salvador Dalí sculptures are on display.
To the west begins the Milla de Oro, which links the centre to Puerto Banús between villas set back from the road and historic hotels. The marina, opened in 1970, is where the shops, the restaurants and the nightlife are concentrated. Just behind it, the valley of Nueva Andalucía lines up its golf courses. At the other end of the coastline, Cabopino protects the Artola dunes, listed as a natural monument.
There is no shortage of things to do: golf all year round on the many courses in the municipality, the hike up to the summit of La Concha, diving and sailing from the marinas, and a cultural life that is rich for a town of this size.
Living in Marbella means combining a level of services that is rare in Europe with the authenticity of an Andalusian centre that has stayed pedestrian.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a villa for sale in Marbella cost?
In our current selection, villas start at around €850,000 and half of them are above €1.9 million. Exceptional properties on the Milla de Oro or in Sierra Blanca reach ten million and more. Contact us for a tailored selection.
Can you buy a villa off plan in Marbella?
Yes. Buying off plan lets you customise the property and stage the payments. We check the bank guarantees and follow the project through to completion.
Modern villa or Andalusian villa?
Contemporary villas appeal through their large glazed openings and their design; Andalusian ones offer charm and authenticity. We will show you both.
Which area should I choose for a villa in Marbella?
Nagüeles and Sierra Blanca for wide plots and open views over the bay; the Milla de Oro for immediate proximity to the beach in a gated development; Nueva Andalucía and Guadalmina for a villa on a golf course. Tell us what matters most and we will focus the search.
What are the formalities for a non-resident buyer?
An NIE, a Spanish bank account, financing from a local bank if required, then signing at the notary's office. Our multilingual team handles the whole process.
What costs and taxes should I plan for when buying a villa in Marbella?
For a resale property, allow around 7% property transfer tax (ITP) in Andalusia, plus 1 to 1.5% for notary, registration and professional fees. For a new-build property, VAT (10%) and stamp duty (AJD, 1.2%) apply instead of ITP. We give you a full breakdown of the costs before any commitment.
Can a non-resident get a mortgage for a villa in Marbella?
Yes. Spanish banks generally lend to non-residents up to 60-70% of the property's value, compared with 80% for residents. We work with local banks and brokers who are used to dealing with international buyers.
Why invest in a villa in Marbella?
Marbella remains the benchmark for the villa market on the Costa del Sol: its microclimate, its international reputation, around fifteen golf courses and a limited supply of land between the sea and the mountains. It is also the segment with the highest budgets on the coast — our villas for sale in Estepona offer a more affordable alternative, twenty minutes away by road.
