San Pedro de Alcántara sits just west of Puerto Banús and has grown into a lively, attractive town in its own right. Once seen as the quieter neighbour to Marbella, it now combines a strong Spanish character with modern infrastructure and a fast-growing international community.
The transformation of San Pedro has been significant. The underground bypass tunnel removed through-traffic from the centre, allowing the creation of the now-iconic Boulevard — a landscaped space with walking paths, cafés, playgrounds, and cultural areas that have helped redefine the town’s feel and flow.
Beachside San Pedro has also been upgraded with a wide paseo marítimo (promenade), modern apartment complexes, and a selection of chiringuitos and restaurants that make the most of its relaxed coastal setting.
San Pedro offers a great mix of property types — from contemporary developments to traditional townhouses and larger family homes. It’s especially popular with buyers looking for walkability, local charm, and proximity to both Marbella and the coast.
To the north, the landscape opens up to the Los Arqueros Golf Resort, offering elevated views and high-quality homes. Further inland lies the ultra-exclusive La Zagaleta, widely considered one of Europe’s most secure and prestigious residential estates.
