13th December 2023

It’s no secret that Marbella is the leader in luxury Spanish holidays. With the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle, an ample amount of ultra-safe and secure communities, as well as an extensive range of private and exclusive venues for socialising, dining and shopping, Marbella is the destination for the rich and famous on the Costa del Sol.  

So well-renowned for its luxury and lavishness, whether you’re taking a stroll on the paseo, or you’re stopping for a spot of lunch in Puerto Banús, you may very well rub shoulders with some of the world’s most famous faces whilst you’re out and about.

Let’s take a look at some celebrities who have invested in luxury properties in Marbella over the years.

Antonio Banderas

The Málaga-born actor may have been in some of Hollywood’s most popular movies, but Antonio Banderas is still very much involved in his hometown. During Semana Santa (Easter Week in Spain), you may find him participating in some of the many processions in Málaga City, alongside members of his family who still reside in the area. He currently owns a gorgeous beachfront residence in the Los Monteros area of Marbella.

Eva Longoria

Having discovered her love for Marbella through her friend Melanie Griffith, Eva Longoria has long been a part of the Marbella community. Until May 2023, the Desperate Housewives star had previously stayed in various luxury residences across Marbella, including Villas de Aloha, the Meliá Don Pepe Hotel and Puente Romano during her trips to the area. However, she has now committed to investing in Marbella, purchasing a property close to the prestigious Puerto Banús. 

Simon Cowell

Love him or hate him, British TV star Simon Cowell previously owned a stunning property in the leafy Sierra Blanca area of Marbella. Referred to as the ‘Beverly Hills of Spain’, Cowell would bring his X-Factor contestants to his luxury abode as part of the ‘Judges Houses’ stage of the show to perform for him.

Rod Stewart

International music icon Rod Stewart is said to own a property within the ultra-luxurious La Zagaleta community. Nestled in the hills of Benahavís, La Zagaleta is one of Spain’s most exclusive communities in Spain, famed for its stunning mansions, premier golf courses and unparalleled privacy. Having performed at Starlite Marbella over the summer of 2023, Rod Stewart can often be found enjoying quality time with his family at the beach.

Lord Alan Sugar

Apprentice TV star and businessman Lord Alan Sugar has owned property in Marbella since the 1970s. In 2015, Luxury Villa Sales had the pleasure of helping him sell his prestigious beachfront villa on the renowned Golden Mile. Speaking of his experience with our team, he commented, “I have found LVS to be very professional, conscientious and can highly recommend them for all your Marbella property requirements.”

En tant que personne qui a eu généralement de mauvaises expériences avec les agents immobiliers à Marbella et qui n'a pas hésité à le dire, je voudrais reconnaître le travail superbe que LVS a fait pour moi en vendant notre villa récemment.

J'ai choisi LVS en raison des personnes qui y travaillent, j'aimerais nommer David en particulier comme la personne la plus compétente et la plus rassurante, son attention méticuleuse aux détails combinée à l'excellent marketing et aux commentaires constants ont été une agréable surprise et ont dépassé mes attentes. dans tous les sens.

Tout ce que je voudrais dire à LVS, c'est merci d'avoir fait le travail, continuez votre bon travail et j'espère que cette critique amènera plus d'acheteurs et de vendeurs chanceux à votre porte.

Je suis très heureux de la façon dont LVS a pris soin de moi et de ma famille pendant nos processus d'achat de maison à Marbella. Elle a écouté attentivement ce que nous voulons et ce dont nous avons besoin, et elle a suggéré des propriétés dans lesquelles nous pouvons vraiment nous voir vivre.

Elle n'est jamais arrogante et ne vend jamais trop. Pourtant, elle est ferme dans ses conseils. Sa connaissance de la propriété est également excellente. Carin répond également rapidement à toute question ou préoccupation.

Je trouve que elle croit sincèrement que la chose la plus importante est que nous trouvions la propriété qui nous convient. Elle me met vraiment en premier en tant qu'acheteur. J'apprécie tellement cela chez un agent.

Je peux fortement recommander LVS comme votre agence préféré et de confiance sur le marché de Marbella.
