The history of luxury Marbella began here – the Golden Mile, one of the most desirable addresses in the world, alongside Monaco or Saint Tropez! Find out why major investors are scrambling for properties to buy right here.
The Golden Mile, an investment vein of gold
“The Golden Mile is one of the most beautiful and luxurious avenues in Spain. The road itself has been running along it since Roman times, when it acted as a route from Rome to Cadiz. However, it only became a popular address in the 20th century. Not long after Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe, passing through the small settlement, came up with the idea of turning it into a luxury resort. It was then that the first hotel was built in Marbella. The Marbella Club is still open today and continues to attract celebrities from all over the world. Another luxury hotel on the Golden Mile is the Puento Romano, which hides inside its courtyard the remains of an ancient Roman bridge
Residences not of this world
It is no wonder that the Golden Mile, also known as the Milla de Oro in Spain, is home to some of the world’s richest people. Here, for example, is the residence of the late King of Arabia, a scaled-down replica of the White House, which cost hundreds of millions of dollars to build. If you buy a house in this area, you can be sure to have politicians, successful businessmen, Spanish and European aristocrats and even Kings as neighbours!
It is a district of beautiful villas and gardens, flats overlooking the sea, furnished to the highest standards. Today, the Golden Mile is more than 6.4 kilometres long, with classic and modern villas immersed in green gardens, with terraces or swimming pools, attracting the attention of investors looking for luxury homes in Spain. If you are looking for a house on the Costa del Sol, located in this district, then you should definitely draw your attention to the two proposals below:
