Enjoy Elviria, Marbella’s most popular suburb…

Situated just a 15 minute drive east of Marbella’s bustling city centre, Elviria is an oasis of calm and tranquillity that supports a community of largely international residents. If your idea of heaven is receiving all the benefits of Marbella’s balmy microclimate while enjoying some particularly excellent views of La Concha – the town’s instantly recognisable mountain – then Elviria is definitely the place for you. Not only is this leafy area the location of some of the finest real estate on the Costa del Sol, but its beach is among the best in the region and it also supports the type of facilities that its demanding residents deem essential for a happy life in the sun.

If you choose to settle, or even just to spend a holiday in Elviria, you will soon find that you’re not too far from anywhere. The two local shopping centres are convenient and pleasant, with boutiques, several major banks and a branch of one of Spain’s major supermarket chains. Locals use the area’s various cafés and restaurants as ideal meeting points to catch up with friends and hear all the latest gossip! Not only is Elviria a wonderful place to relax, but it also incorporates a wide range of amenities for fans of sporting activities. Nearly everyone is aware that the Costa del Sol’s alter ego is the Costa del Golf, and in Elviria there is plenty of evidence to support this view. The Santa María and Santa Clara courses are both close at hand, while the Golf Club Marbella and Golf Rio Real are only a short drive away. Tennis, especially paddle tennis, is also a very popular sport in Andalucía and courts are available at Elviria’s El Casco Tennis Club. Beach clubs, chiringuito cabana bars, fine dining, luxury hotels, spa facilities, international schools and medical centres complete a long list of amenities on hand, and with La Cañada, Marbella’s largest and most popular shopping mall only minutes away by car and all the sights and sounds of central Marbella and Puerto Banús within easy reach, Elviria really is an ideal spot to enjoy life on the Costa del Sol. MJ Liggan of Altavista Property Spain says, “Over the years we have noticed that the quality of property in this area has maintained its consistent excellence, which is probably why it has remained such a popular choice.
