Isla Bela
Project lifecycle
Isla Bela, in context.
Isla Bela occupies a quiet position in Nueva Andalucía, the broad valley behind Puerto Banús that Marbella has long called its Golf Valley. It is a gated complex of 107 homes, from 80 m² apartments to 375 m² penthouses, priced between €785,000 and €2.4 million, aimed at buyers who want the Banús postcode without the noise that comes with the marina itself. Construction is under way, with completion set for the first quarter of 2028.
The architecture takes the old Andalusian patio and reworks it, so each block opens around a central void that draws light and air deep into the plans. Floor-to-ceiling glazing does the rest. Large-format floors run from the living rooms straight out onto the terraces, which blurs where the house ends.
Kitchens are open, fitted with integrated energy-efficient appliances and bathrooms use vitrified porcelain with solid mineral washbasin tops.
Communal space is where the project makes its argument. An outdoor pool sits in gardens with loungers and indoors there is a heated pool, a gym and a spa run to five-star hotel logic. There is also a coworking room and a social club with a cinema. Ground-floor homes come with private gardens and pools, while the penthouses have rooftop solariums. Fifty of the 107 have already gone, leaving 57 available, which narrows the choice of aspect and floor considerably for anyone who waits.

The off-plan discount, stage by stage
Off-plan entry typically offers the largest pricing headroom at the earliest stages. The advantage narrows as construction progresses — at completion the unit is priced at market. Isla Bela currently sits in the Under construction band.
Isla Bela is already out of the ground, which removes the planning risk that shadows earlier-stage launches, yet delivery in Q1 2028 leaves time to pay in stages rather than in one go. Nearly half the scheme is gone and what remains, 57 homes, will thin fastest at the extremes: the ground floors with private gardens and pools and the penthouses with rooftop solariums. Buying now also preserves the customisation options that close as construction advances. Set against a Marbella resale market averaging €4,731 per m² and 235 days on the market, a new-build in the Golf Valley with this level of communal specification is a different proposition entirely.
Why buyers reserve at this stage
Personalisation window
Reserving during the Under construction phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover, a window that closes as the build advances.
Scarcity and specification
57 of 107 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.
Risk-managed entry
Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.
The premium, contextualised
Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.
Isla Bela is not priced against average Marbella resale stock. It is a premium new-build product with the specification, plot quality and amenity package that the broader resale market typically does not match. At €9,813 per built m² the relevant question is whether the premium is justified against comparable new-build completions, not whether it beats the area's median of €4,711/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Marbella
Daily life here is unusually easy. A Mercadona and a Supercor sit within 400 metres, the nearest pharmacy is a three-minute walk and there are cafés such as Zest and Yanx inside a kilometre. Mamma Lina and Il Clandestino are close enough for a Tuesday supper rather than an occasion. HC Marbella International Hospital is three minutes by car, which matters more to buyers than brochures usually admit.
For golfers, Real Club de Golf Las Brisas is under a kilometre from the door, with Magna Marbella a further minute or two and the valley's other courses fan out around them. Puerto Banús and its marina are four minutes away, so lunch on a boat or an evening in the port needs no planning.
The nearest sand is at Ventura del Mar, four minutes, with San Pedro at six and Nagüeles, below the Golden Mile, at nine.
Then there is the weather. Average daily highs of 21.6°C and lows of 15.2°C across the year mean the terrace is a room you actually use in February, not simply one you photograph in July.

Understand the full picture
Spanish purchases involve taxes and fees that catch first-time international buyers off-guard. We surface every figure that matters.
Typical off-plan payment schedule
Spanish new-build purchases are typically paid in three staged instalments, with every euro held under bank guarantee until completion.
Total cost of ownership
Spanish mortgage scenario
Indicative non-resident mortgage on the slider price above. Spanish banks typically lend 60–70% LTV to non-residents over 20–25 years.
Investment outlook
Three scenarios our analysts model on every Costa del Sol off-plan deal.
Residency planning for non-EU buyers
Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025. Non-EU buyers acquiring property at this value still have residency routes — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, and case-specific options — depending on circumstances. We introduce regulated immigration counsel before any commitment.
