Villa rentals · San Pedro de Alcántara
West of Banús, flatter and greener, with the biggest plots for the money anywhere near Marbella. Where you go when the group is large and the garden matters more than the postcode.
One house here, from €464 a night in low season. Staffing, transfers and provisioning are handled with the booking.
San Pedro is a town rather than an urbanisation, which changes the week more than people expect. There is a working high street, a boulevard, and restaurants that are full of locals in February as well as August.
It is minutes west of Puerto Banús, so the port is there when you want it, and the land is flat, so children on bikes and anyone who dislikes hill driving both do better here than up in the hills.
One, and it is the clearest illustration of why people choose the area. Villa Verdant sits on a 3,000 square metre plot with 480 square metres built, five bedrooms sleeping ten, and an infinity pool. From €464 a night in low season, it is the lowest entry price in the portfolio, on the largest garden.
That combination is what San Pedro gives you and the Golden Mile does not.
Groups of eight or ten who want outdoor space. Families with young children. Anyone staying a fortnight, where value per night adds up.
If you want to be inside the Marbella bubble, the Golden Mile or Nueva Andalucía is the trade. For something bigger still, Benahavís.
