Guide to Sierra Blanca
Living in Sierra Blanca is literally hitting the heights in terms of luxury living in Marbella. A secure gated community, comprising some 250 luxurious villas and luxury apartment complexes, Sierra Blanca nestles into the foothills of La Concha mountain creating a dramatic, protective backdrop while providing an elevated position from which to appreciate breath-taking, panoramic sea views. With wide, spacious palm-lined avenues, and eye-catching luxury mansions, this desirable address is Marbella’s equivalent of Florida’s Beverly Hills. Large neo-classical mansions sit alongside avant-garde masterpieces, and luxurious high-end apartment complexes with signature interior design, in lush, sub-tropical gardens with infinity pools, staff quarters and an infinity of luxurious details.
A secure, gated community, everything about Sierra Blanca exudes wealth and prestige. You can expect to see a wide range of luxury vehicles circulating in Sierra Blanca in keeping with the elevated mood. Even the street names – in homage to great composers, such as Mozart, Vivaldi – help to set the sophisticated tone of the neighbourhood.
