Properties for sale in Altos de los Monteros

Living in Altos de los Monteros

Altos de los Monteros sits on a hill in Marbella Este, above the Los Monteros urbanisation, and its big selling point is the views: from almost anywhere you look out over an open panorama of the Mediterranean that, on clear days, reaches as far as Gibraltar and the coast of Africa. The area has mainly been developed in recent years, with modern sea-facing apartment complexes, spacious terraces and well-kept communal areas, in an unspoilt hillside setting where nature still has the upper hand. The centre of Marbella is about ten minutes away by car, and the Los Monteros and Bahía de Marbella beaches, among the best in the municipality, just over five.

It is a location for those who put peace and quiet, the outdoors and sunrises over the sea ahead of walking down to the beach: you will need a car for day-to-day life. In return, the balance between quality of home, views and natural surroundings is among the most attractive in Marbella, and the proximity of Hospital Costa del Sol, the schools of Marbella Este and the A-7 means everyday logistics are taken care of in a few minutes.

Buying property in Altos de los Monteros

Supply in Altos de los Monteros is concentrated in recently built and new-build apartments and penthouses, with modern specifications, energy efficiency and sea views as the common denominator. When comparing developments, it is worth looking closely at the exact orientation, the position within the complex and the fees payable to the comunidad (community of owners), as both day-to-day enjoyment and resale value depend on them. The occasional villa or plot also comes up for those who want to build to their own design. At EVS PROPERTY GROUP we follow every development on the hill and help you choose the specific unit with the best potential: write to us and we will prepare a clear comparison for you.

Frequently asked questions about Altos de los Monteros

What views does Altos de los Monteros offer?

The best panoramas in Marbella Este: the hill rises above Los Monteros and offers open views of the Mediterranean, the bay of Marbella and, on clear days, Gibraltar and the African coast. Most of the recent developments have been designed precisely to make the most of them, with spacious terraces and a sea-facing orientation in almost every unit.

Do you need a car to live in Altos de los Monteros?

Yes, it is advisable: supermarkets, schools and services are in the lower part of Marbella Este, a few minutes away by road. In return you gain quiet, elevated natural surroundings, with Hospital Costa del Sol and access to the A-7 very close by, so any everyday errand can be dealt with in a short trip.

Which beaches are close to Altos de los Monteros?

Los Monteros and Bahía de Marbella, just over five minutes away by car: wide sandy beaches, low dunes and some of the city's best-known beach clubs. They are among the most highly rated places to swim in Marbella and tend to be less crowded than the beaches in the centre, even in high season.

Is Altos de los Monteros a good place to work remotely?

An excellent one. The recent complexes have fibre-optic broadband, and the quiet of the area, surrounded by unspoilt hillside, makes it easy to concentrate. Working from a terrace facing the Mediterranean, with the sea as a backdrop, is everyday life here. When you finish for the day, the centre of Marbella and its cafés are about ten minutes away by car. Quite a few of today's buyers are, in fact, remote professionals looking for exactly this balance.

What is the best type of property for buying into Altos de los Monteros?

The area has been developed with modern complexes of apartments and penthouses with large terraces, pools and resort-style communal areas, which are the natural way in. Compared with the villas in the lower part of Los Monteros, they offer easy maintenance and active communities. An apartment with a good orientation and unobstructed sea views is the property that resells and rents best within the urbanisation.
