Dear R

Personally, I think you need to come and wander around all the areas for yourself.  If you dont know people urbanisations are a great way to meet people and not so lonely.

I have holiday apartment in La Maestranza, Nueva Andalucia, we lived there for 6 years and it was great....but in the end I was fed up living where many people came on holiday.

Marbella along the golden mile -  more people living there rather than on holiday.  If you can find a nice urbanisation which isnt too close to the Port will prbably be best.  La Maestranza is great and lots of people live there but come summer it can be noisy like many others.

Come, walk around and get a feeling for yourself.

Regards
