⁠What €1M Buys You in Marbella in 2025

One million euros still goes a long way in Marbella—if you know what you’re looking for. It’s not just about square metres or a postcode. It’s about finding a home that fits your rhythm, your routines, and the kind of life you want to build.

In a market where demand remains strong and quality is key, one million euros still opens the door to some genuinely compelling opportunities.

So what can you expect to find in 2025? Let’s take a closer look.

A Market That’s Still Moving

Marbella’s property market continues to gain ground. Prices are steadily rising, driven by limited supply, high international demand, and the enduring appeal of Costa del Sol living. According to recent reports, the average asking price in Marbella is now around €5,160/m², with prime zones like the Golden Mile or Sierra Blanca climbing closer to €12,000–€16,000/m².

That said, a €1M budget still opens plenty of doors.

What Can €1M Really Get You?

While €1M may not place you in a beachfront villa, it can still secure a high-quality property that balances style, location, and lifestyle.

Here’s what that might look like:

  • Modern 3 Bedroom Apartment
    Expect open-plan layouts, private terraces, shared pool access, underground parking and a location near golf courses, restaurants, and services. Think Nueva Andalucía, San Pedro, La Quinta.
  • Penthouse with a View
    You might need to compromise on size or walkability, but you’ll gain sweeping sea or mountain views and a terrace built for sunset dinners.
  • Townhouse in a Gated Community
    For those looking for more space and a residential feel, €1M can secure you a home with communal gardens, a sense of privacy, and room for family life.
  • A Plot with a Plan
    In areas like Benahavís, La Quinta and Elviria you’ll find land between €400,000 and €1M—leaving you space (and budget) to build something uniquely yours.

It’s Not Just What You Buy—It’s Why

Most of our clients in this range are looking for something with more meaning. They’re buying a new life. A healthier routine. A sunnier outlook—literally and figuratively.

Whether it’s a second home, a functional base for remote work, or a long-term move for the family, a €1M property in Marbella is often about shifting pace, not just address.

Areas like Nueva Andalucía are popular for a reason. You’re close to everything: golf, beaches, international schools, shopping, walking trails—and just enough of a buzz, without the stress.

And for investors? Well-located apartments that perform well on the rental market, both short and long term.
