The place
The villa streets around the first course in the valley
Las Brisas is the neighbourhood around the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas, in the middle of the Nueva Andalucía golf valley and about five minutes inland from Puerto Banús. The course came first, in 1968, and the houses were set out around and between its fairways over the decades that followed, so the address and the golf club are the same piece of ground.
The land register shows villa country almost without interruption here, and the Catastro records about four hundred and twenty plots on the streets around the course, more than three quarters of them a thousand square metres or larger, and nearly all carrying a single house, most of one or two floors. The few apartment and townhouse communities that use the name, Las Brisas del Golf, Country Club Las Brisas and Pueblo de Las Brisas among them, stand on four plots out of the whole.
This guide sets out how a golf course drawn for a tourist city became one of the settled residential addresses of Marbella, what the streets and the club are like to live beside, and what the numbers say, including the running costs that no official body publishes and that we hold ourselves.
We are not selling you a golf membership or a postcode, and the club decides the first of those for itself. What we can do is tell you which streets look across a fairway and which look at a neighbour’s wall, what each costs to hold, and where a house of the eighties is priced as the plot it stands on.

Where exactly it is
The middle of the Golf Valley
Las Brisas read west to east across the floor of the Nueva Andalucía valley, a little over two kilometres from the nine holes of Magna Marbella to Aloha. The course fills the centre of the frame with the villa streets around it, Los Naranjos lies off its north western corner and La Campana off its south western one. Puerto Banús is out of the frame to the south, about two and a half kilometres away.

Farmland with two streams through it
Fields and two streams, then fairways with houses between them
The same frame of valley floor was flown twice, seventy years apart. In 1956 it is fields, tracks and the lines of two streams, the ones that now feed the ten lakes of the course. The golf came in 1968 and the houses after it, most of them between the early seventies and the end of the nineties.
Nothing was added to these frames and nothing was moved, and the golf holds the middle of every frame after the first while the houses fill in around it. Historic and current imagery © Instituto Geográfico Nacional de España, both rendered through one frame at one scale.
How it came to be
A course first, and a neighbourhood around it
The golf course at the centre of this neighbourhood was the first thing built in the valley behind Puerto Banús. José Banús founded it in 1968 as the Club de Golf Nueva Andalucía, took the presidency himself and kept it until 1981. For the design he went to Robert Trent Jones, the American who had just finished Sotogrande and who went on from here to Los Naranjos next door and to the course that became Valderrama.
Trent Jones gave the valley floor ten artificial lakes fed by two streams, raised most of the greens and ringed them with bunkers, and sowed Bermuda grass on the fairways and Penncross bent on the greens, both unusual in the Europe of the sixties. Banús then commissioned an Englishman, Gerald Huggan, a specialist in subtropical plants just back from designing gardens in Nairobi, to plant it as an arboretum, with trees brought from Africa, Asia, the Americas and Australia.
The official opening came in 1970, on the same occasion as Puerto Banús, with the Spanish Open played here that year. The club’s own history records Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco and the Aga Khan at the gala, and a young Julio Iglesias singing at it. Three years later the World Cup came, won for the United States by Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller, and Miller’s 65 that week is still the course record. The World Cup returned in 1989 and Australia took it, with Spain’s José María Cañizares and José María Olazábal second.
The houses followed the golf, and the Catastro dates them one by one. A single building on Calle París is recorded from 1966, the next from 1971, and eighty three of today’s buildings were standing by the end of the seventies. The eighties were the busiest decade, with a hundred and thirty five more, and by 2000 four fifths of what stands now was in place. Los Naranjos opened to the north west in 1977, and in 1982 the two clubs were sold on and went their separate ways.
On 23 May 1995 King Juan Carlos granted the club the right to call itself Real, his father Don Juan de Borbón having been its honorary president for life. The course was rebuilt in 2015 under the architect Kyle Phillips, and in 2023 it hosted the Women’s Spanish Open.

Living here
A quiet address with a town five minutes below it
Daily life in Las Brisas runs on short drives rather than on foot, because the streets are residential from one end to the other and the plots are large. Puerto Banús and its beaches are about five minutes down the valley, San Pedro de Alcántara about ten minutes west and the old town of Marbella about fifteen minutes east. The Saturday market sets up on the Centro Plaza esplanade at the foot of the valley, and La Campana, immediately to the south west, is where the everyday shops and services of this part of the valley are found.
Families who settle here usually have a school in mind before they choose the street. Aloha College, founded in 1982 and among the first schools in Spain to offer the International Baccalaureate, is on the eastern side of the valley in El Ángel, a few minutes from any house in Las Brisas. Private healthcare is close as well, with a 24 hour home doctor and ambulance service run from Puerto Banús since 1988, Quirónsalud Marbella and Hospital Ochoa in the town, and the public Hospital Costa del Sol on the A-7 on its eastern side.
The golf club shapes the neighbourhood whether or not you play, and it keeps itself to itself. Real Club de Golf Las Brisas is a members’ club with about eleven hundred members of thirty nationalities, guests go out only in the company of a member, and the course is a par 72 of 6,464 metres from the back tees. Los Naranjos and Aloha, both a few minutes away, and the nine holes of Magna Marbella on the western edge make four courses inside one valley.
What the course gives every resident is the planting and the open ground, an arboretum that has had close to sixty years to grow. The fairways keep the middle of the neighbourhood unbuilt, the houses sit low among the trees at one or two floors, and the mountain of La Concha stands over the valley to the north east.

What things cost
What is asked, and what was paid
Two numbers both get called “the price” here, and they are kept apart on this page. Registered sale prices are published by postcode only, and 29660 covers Las Brisas together with the rest of Nueva Andalucía and Puerto Banús, apartments by the marina included, so the deed figure below is the whole postcode read as one. The asking prices are those of Las Brisas alone.
Asking prices, per square metre
The bar is the middle half of what is being asked for each type in Las Brisas right now, from the cheapest quarter to the dearest. The number in the row is the typical figure. Nothing here has necessarily sold at these prices; that is what the panel beside it is for.
Asking prices per built square metre, resale stock listed in Las Brisas, 136 properties in total, as at 8 August 2026. From our own records.
What buyers actually paid
Registered sale prices are only published by postcode, and postcode 29660 covers Las Brisas together with the rest of Nueva Andalucía and Puerto Banús. So the deed figure below is for the whole district rather than for Las Brisas alone. Across it, homes completed this year at a typical €4,739 per square metre, 2 per cent above Marbella as a whole. Houses went for €5,273 over an average 354 square metres, against €4,924 for a house in Marbella as a whole.
Read the two panels together and the lesson is the usual one: asking prices run over standing stock, which quietly accumulates every overpriced home that never sells, while deeds count only what traded. The gap between them is mostly that selection effect, not a discount waiting to be claimed. The full postcode picture, by property type, is on the Nueva Andalucía page.

No official body publishes what is available to buy, only what has already sold, so this part comes from our own intelligence. Through our network memberships we see every resale property listed through an agency on this coast, which means we know both what is genuinely on the market in Las Brisas and where the same home is being advertised more than once. This covers resale stock only, not new construction sold directly by developers.
The shape of what comes to market here is the shape of the land register. Around nine in every ten homes for sale in Las Brisas is a house on its own plot, with a small number of apartments and duplexes from the few communities beside the course and almost no bare land. Inside that there are two quite different houses on offer. One is the villa of the seventies or eighties, often on one of the larger plots and sold on its position, and the other is the house rebuilt or newly finished in the last ten years, of which the Catastro records twenty one since 2015. The asking price per square metre moves a long way between the two.

What it costs to own
The figure nobody official publishes
Every buyer eventually asks what a house here costs to hold, and no public body answers it. We can, because we record it. Across the Las Brisas listings that publish their running costs, the median annual property tax, the IBI, is €2,622, and the median community charge is €1,272. Together that is €3,894 a year before utilities, garden, pool and staff.
The balance between the two halves of that bill is the opposite of most of the valley. Aloha, where far more of the stock is apartments in communities with shared gardens and pools, runs at €4,800 a year on the same measure, Nueva Andalucía as a whole at €4,400 and Puerto Banús at €5,052, in each case mostly community charge. Los Naranjos, the other villa neighbourhood, runs at €3,336. In Las Brisas the larger share is the property tax, which follows the size of plot and house, and the community charge is small because a villa on its own street shares very little with its neighbours.
The garden, the pool and the house itself are therefore the real running costs of a home in these streets, and they belong to the property rather than to the address. Ask us for the figures on the actual house before you make an offer, including what the present owner spends on the grounds, and you will have them in front of you when you view.

Las Brisas compared to nearby areas
Las Brisas and the rest of the valley
Las Brisas, Los Naranjos and Aloha are three neighbourhoods around three golf courses inside one valley, and most buyers who look at one are shown all three. They share a postcode, a school and a marina, and they differ in what stands on the land and how old it is.
| Address | Typical asking, per m² | Listed | Running costs, per year | Character |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Las Brisas | €9,559 | 123 houses and villas | €3,894 | The first course, 1968, and villa plots on streets named for palaces and cities |
| Los Naranjos | €8,682 | 85 houses and villas | €3,336 | The second Trent Jones course, 1977, and the villa streets to the north west |
| Aloha | €7,436 | 108 houses and villas | €4,800 | Arana’s course to the north east, with far more apartments and penthouses in the mix |
| Nueva Andalucía | €8,246 | 1542 houses and villas | €4,400 | The valley as a whole, from the coast road to the hills |
| Puerto Banús | €8,653 | 454 apartments | €5,052 | The marina at the mouth of the valley, same postcode, a different life |
Typical is the median asking price per built square metre for the type of home most listed in each area, named beside the count (houses and villas, or apartments), as at 8 August 2026; running costs are the median annual IBI plus community charge where enough listings publish them. From our own records.
The choice between the three golf neighbourhoods is mostly a choice of building. Las Brisas is the most consistently a street of detached houses, on the oldest and most mature ground in the valley, and its villas ask the most per square metre of the three. Aloha gives you the widest range, from a two bedroom apartment to a villa on the course, and the school on the doorstep. Los Naranjos is the younger Trent Jones course, a little further up the valley, and is also mostly houses. Puerto Banús is where all three go for the beach and the evening, and it is a different way of living altogether.

Who buys here
Three buyers, and what Las Brisas gives each of them
The year-round home.
Most of the plots here hold one house behind its own hedge with a golf course for a horizon, and the daily errands are a few minutes down the hill. Aloha College is across the valley, the Saturday market is at Centro Plaza, and La Campana is next door.
The golfer.
Las Brisas is a members’ club where guests play only alongside a member, and Los Naranjos, Aloha and the nine holes of Magna Marbella are all inside the same valley. Few addresses on this coast put four courses this close to the front door.
The buyer of a plot with a house on it.
More than half of the dated buildings here went up in the seventies and eighties, on plots of a thousand square metres and more, and the Catastro shows twenty one completed since 2015. A purchase in these streets is often a decision about the land and its position on the course as much as about the house standing on it.
Common questions
Questions we are asked about Las Brisas
Where is Las Brisas in Marbella?
Las Brisas is in Nueva Andalucía, in the middle of the Golf Valley, about two and a half kilometres inland from Puerto Banús and roughly five minutes from it by car. It is the neighbourhood around the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas, whose address is Calle Londres, with Los Naranjos to the north west, Aloha to the north east and La Campana to the south west. It shares the postcode 29660 with the rest of Nueva Andalucía and Puerto Banús.
Can anyone play golf at Las Brisas?
Real Club de Golf Las Brisas is a private members’ club, and the club’s own rules say guests are permitted on the course only in the company of a member. To join, an applicant buys a share in the company that holds the club, is proposed by two members and pays an entry fee and an annual subscription. Owning a house in Las Brisas does not carry membership with it.
Who designed the Las Brisas golf course?
Robert Trent Jones Senior designed it for José Banús, who founded the club in 1968 as the Club de Golf Nueva Andalucía. The landscaping and arboretum were the work of the Englishman Gerald Huggan, and the course was rebuilt in 2015 under Kyle Phillips. It has hosted the World Cup twice, in 1973 and 1989, and three Spanish Opens, and it was granted the Royal prefix on 23 May 1995.
What type of property for sale in Las Brisas is most common?
Houses on their own plots make up nearly everything that is offered here. Of the 136 resale properties currently listed in Las Brisas, 124 are houses and villas and 6 are apartments, with a handful of duplexes and townhouses beside them. The Catastro shows the same thing on the ground, with a median plot of 1,150 square metres on the streets around the course and nearly every building holding a single home.
What does it cost to run a home in Las Brisas?
Across the Las Brisas listings that publish their running costs, the median annual IBI is €2,622 and the median community charge €1,272, together €3,894 a year before utilities, garden and pool. Aloha runs at €4,800 and Los Naranjos at €3,336 on the same measure. No official body publishes this figure. It comes from our own records.
How old are the houses in Las Brisas?
Most of them date from the first thirty years after the course opened. The Catastro gives a construction date for 382 buildings on the streets around the course, of which 83 were built before 1980, 135 in the eighties and 89 in the nineties. A further 49 date from the 2000s and 26 from 2010 onwards, so a share of the neighbourhood is new or rebuilt.
