About this property
Situated right in the middle of trendy Puerto Banus, this lovely two-bedroom apartment enjoys stunning views across the harbour whilst being just a few minutes walk to the wonderful golden beaches that stretch for miles up and down the coast.
Arranged over a single level, Vista Banus is the perfect place for couples or small families, with two double bedrooms and a spacious living area that looks out over the water. Tastefully decorated, the apartment has a contemporary feel with a neutral palette and carefully chosen furnishings. The open-plan living room features a well-equipped kitchen with Bosch appliances and stylish countertops, whilst a smart dining table sits in the centre, where you can share meals or entertain guests. Positioned in front of the terrace doors, a large sofa and armchairs form a comfortable seating area, perfect for sitting with a drink whilst enjoying a view out to the boats and harbour beyond.
The two bedrooms are tucked to the rear of the apartment, with large double beds and lovely timber joinery fronting built-in wardrobes. A spacious bathroom has been carefully finished with quality materials and fittings, whilst an additional WC offers added convenience.
Practically arranged, the charming apartment offers an ideal base to make the most of the surrounding area and ensures guests have a stylish yet comfortable space to retreat after a long day beside the sea.
Enjoying an enviable position on the edge of the harbour, Vista Banus is just a few seconds' walk from the waterfront, where you wander between the impressive yachts and sailboats. Once an old fishing port, the town was developed in the 1960s and now plays host to glamorous restaurants and bars, as well as some of the area's most exclusive hotels. Enjoy a walk through the streets lined with fashionable boutiques and galleries, or take a leisurely lunch beside the water and soak up the lively atmosphere. For those looking to party, the town has a buzzing nightlife, with bars and clubs open until the early hours, or head up to the Sky Lounge, where you can sit on the roof terrace and admire the wonderful views out to the mountains in the distance.
Situated in the middle of the Costa del Sol, the surrounding coastline is lined with long golden sands, offering plenty of options to spend a relaxing day beside the sea. To the east of the marina, Playa Puerto Banus is a popular spot for families with a gentle shore and calm waters, whilst to the west, Playa San Pedro de Alcantara fits a long stretch where you can walk along the sand and enjoy a refreshing swim. For an afternoon snack, a handful of chiringuitos are located nearby, or you can sit in the evening and watch the sunset over the sea whilst sharing a delicious plate of fresh sardines.
From Puerto Banus, the Paseo Maritimo runs along the coast to Marbella, where you can join the local joggers and walkers and take a healthy stroll along the seafront. Alternatively, hop on the Banus-Marbella ferry to enjoy a boat trip up the coast and take in the scenery from a different perspective. Marbella itself has plenty to offer, with its lively streets composed of traditional barrios and chic avenues. Explore the Old Town to discover its charming architecture and shaded squares, and be sure to stop in Plaza de los Naranjos to enjoy a drink on one of the terraces and soak up the daily activity. Plenty of tapas bars dot the streets where you can stop for a bite to eat or seek out some shade and head to the wonderful Parque de la Constitucion. Once part of a private residence, the leafy setting offers a respite from the city, inviting you to escape the heat and enjoy a picnic beneath the trees. The Parque del Alameda is also worth visiting, with its shaded avenues adorned with colourful tiles, or wander along the Avenida del Mar and discover a series of bronze sculptures designed by Salvador Dali.
Whilst known for its glorious beaches, you can also explore the region's beautiful countryside and visit the majestic Sierra Blanca mountains that rise up away from the coast. Take a gentle walk through the foothills and enjoy a peaceful afternoon exploring the shade pine groves, or opt for a more challenging route and climb to the summit of the impressive La Concha to be rewarded with spectacular views down to the sea. There are plenty of well-marked trails, making it easy to spend a day discovering the rocky slopes or take a more gentle walk along the Guadalevin River, where you can follow an undemanding path that winds through the picturesque canyon. Dip your feet in the natural pools to be refreshed by the cool water, or be daring and join the locals for a bracing swim.
