The feel

Ojén sits in the hills above Marbella, a white village of narrow streets, a church and views down to the sea. It has a strong international community, a handful of good restaurants and access to the Sierra de las Nieves, while Marbella and the coast are only 15 minutes away. It is a rare combination of village life and coastal convenience.
