The sale figure is the Flat Spain Price Benchmark city average scaled by this barrio's rent premium, not a researched per-barrio sale price. It is labelled an estimate because that is what it is.
Who Nueva Andalucía suits
The consistent expat-family favourite: the "Golf Valley" of Aloha, Las Brisas and La Campana, with international schools close by and Puerto Banús a few minutes away without its noise. Modern urbanisations, pools and space per euro the old town cannot match.
What to watch out for
You need a car, the urbanisations sprawl and quality varies block to block, so the exact complex matters far more than the barrio name. Summer traffic down to Banús is genuinely bad.

Very safe, with a gated-community feel; quiet and residential year-round.
The Flat Spain Neighborhood Score rates Nueva Andalucía 9/10. The score compares barrios with each other — it is not a verdict on any particular street, and no barrio in Marbella is uniformly one thing after dark.
