Gardener on the Golden Mile (Milla de Oro)
Between Marbella town and Puerto Banús, we care for some of the largest and most mature villa gardens on the coast, quietly and reliably.
The Golden Mile, or Milla de Oro, is the stretch of Marbella between the town centre and Puerto Banús, along the Bulevar Príncipe Alfonso von Hohenlohe. It is home to the Marbella Club and Puente Romano hotels, and to villas from the beachfront plots of Casablanca and Rocío de Nagüeles up to Las Lomas del Marbella Club and Altos Reales.
Many gardens here are large and have grown for decades. Tall palms, old olive trees, wide lawns, pools and long hedges for privacy are typical. Garden maintenance on the Golden Mile means keeping all of these in balance, so the garden looks natural and well cared for at the same time.
A lot of owners spend only part of the year here. We offer villa garden care on a fixed schedule, palm tree pruning, height pruning for big trees and hedge trimming, and we prepare the garden before you or your guests arrive. We work discreetly, and you get photo updates via WhatsApp.

Golden Mile gardens: palms, privacy and mature trees
Mature gardens bring their own tasks. Tall palms need regular pruning and checks for red palm weevil, and old trees can grow over roofs, pools and neighbouring plots. Privacy hedges must stay dense without taking over paths and driveways.
- Plan palm tree pruning on the Golden Mile once a year and check the crowns on every visit.
- Have tall trees over the house or pool looked at by a tree surgeon before the winter storms.
- Trim privacy hedges in spring and again in late summer.
- Prepare the garden a few days before you arrive, not on the day itself.
- Check the irrigation zones for lawns and beds before the summer heat.
