Marbella’s seaside jewel — where golden beaches, pine forests, and vibrant lifestyle converge.
Elviria is a laid-back coastal neighbourhood on the eastern edge of Marbella. Sitting about 10 km east of central Marbella and 45 km from Málaga Airport, it offers sandy beaches, golf courses, pine forests, and family-friendly residential zones. The area rises gracefully from the Mediterranean shoreline into lush hills toward La Mairena, commanding panoramic sea views while offering a refined sense of privacy and tranquillity while staying connected to Marbella’s vibrant lifestyle.
The main stretch of golden sand is Playa de Elviria which is one of the most expansive and scenic beaches on the Costa del Sol, ideal for long walks, family beach days, water sports, or sunset cocktails.
Elviria’s beaches stand out with their wide golden sands and gently shallow waters, creating the perfect setting for families and relaxed swimming, while offering an elegant blend of laid-back chiringuitos and vibrant beachfront venues that capture the essence of Mediterranean luxury living.
The iconic five-star Don Carlos Resort has been a true landmark in Marbella’s luxury hospitality scene for decades. Following its recent renovation, the resort now showcases a refined blend of contemporary luxury and traditional Andalusian design, highlighted by elegant Mediterranean architecture, whitewashed facades, handcrafted details, lush tropical gardens and carefully curated outdoor spaces that create a timeless and sophisticated atmosphere.
Guests also enjoy a prime beachfront location and access to world-class spa and wellness experiences, as well as prestigious tennis and paddle facilities developed in collaboration with Rafa Nadal’s elite tennis academy concept, all perfectly complemented by its immediate proximity to the beach and breathtaking panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea.

Expect stylish décor, chic music, DJs, daytime parties, themed seasonal events and a glamorous crowd with a true Mediterranean party-by-day vibe.
This is where the beach lifestyle meets social glamour, perfect for sunbathing, cocktails, seafood lunches, and views of the sparkling Mediterranean.

Located in the hills above Elviria, La Mairena is part of the wider Elviria area, situated within the municipality of Ojén, and sits around a 10-minute drive from the coastline. The area is known for its elevated position, open Mediterranean views, low-density developments, and a quieter residential environment.
La Mairena is home to El Soto Golf & Country Club and offers close access to natural surroundings while remaining well connected to Elviria’s beaches, amenities, and services.
Elviria offers a diverse range of properties, from stylish apartments to exclusive luxury villas. Prices naturally vary depending on factors such as size, property type, location, and views.
Entry-level apartments represent an accessible point into the market, while villas sit in the upper segment and extend into the premium and high-end luxury bracket for the most prestigious properties.
Elviria has a rich and eclectic food scene, ranging from relaxed beachside dining to refined culinary experiences. The beachfront reflects a unique social mix — from the refined setting of Nikki Beach Marbella to more casual beachgoers, the area welcomes a diverse mix of visitors.
With its wide stretch of white sand, Elviria’s beach remains a point of interest for everyone, offering space for both vibrant beach club energy and laid-back Mediterranean simplicity.
Nightlife here is more relaxed and social than in central Marbella, think seaside appetizers and lounging rather than late-night clubbing.
Elviria perfectly combines coastal leisure with an active outdoor lifestyle, offering a wide range of sports and recreational opportunities. Golf enthusiasts will find themselves in a true golfer’s paradise, with renowned courses such as Santa María Golf & Country Club, Greenlife Golf, El Soto Golf & Country Club, as well as nearby favourites including Santa Clara Golf Marbella, Cabopino Golf Marbella and Río Real Golf.
Along the coastline, residents and visitors can enjoy a variety of water sports and beach activities, including paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing, sailing, and jet ski rentals during the summer months. Popular beach venues such as La Cabane and La Plage Casanis add a refined beach club atmosphere, while traditional chiringuitos preserve an authentic, down-to-earth character that remains distinctly part of Marbella.
Nature lovers are equally well catered for, with cycling routes and scenic hiking trails winding through the surrounding pine forests, while families can enjoy Aventura Amazonia Marbella.
For sports and wellness enthusiasts, Elviria also offers excellent tennis and paddle facilities at the Don Carlos Resort & Spa and the prestigious Hoffmann Tennis Academy in nearby La Mairena, further enhancing the area’s reputation as a premier destination for active Mediterranean living.
Elviria has everything for daily needs: supermarkets like Mercadona, Carrefour, Lidl as well as banks, pharmacies, salons, and boutiques. A premium shopping and lifestyle destination is just a short drive away at La Cañada Shopping Centre with 150+ stores, restaurants, cinema, and more.
Elviria offers a versatile property market, catering to a wide range of lifestyles. Coastal residences provide the quintessential beachfront experience, with contemporary apartments and luxury villas offering direct access to the sand and sea. In contrast, hillside homes combine privacy and tranquillity with panoramic Mediterranean views, ideal for those seeking a more serene living environment.
The area includes both established properties and new developments, making it suitable for permanent residence, holiday homes, or investment opportunities such as short- and long-term rentals. Low-density layouts and carefully planned communities ensure a sense of space and exclusivity, while the variety of architectural styles — from modern minimalism to classic Andalusian design — reflects the eclectic yet harmonious character of Elviria.
Elviria is not simply a beach destination. It is a complete residential environment where golden coastline, mature pine forests, world-class golf, and vibrant social life converge within one of Marbella’s most balanced neighbourhoods.
This is Marbella’s seaside jewel.
Where lifestyle and landscape exist in harmony.
