Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, which have significantly lower starting prices (from €418,800 and €320,000 respectively), the Atalaya villa positions itself in a higher market segment at €1,495,000. This price difference is attributable to the larger scale of the property (377 m² living space vs. typically smaller in the mentioned projects), a larger plot (830 m²), its rural location offering more privacy and space, and the recent, high-quality renovation. Alba Benalmadena, with a starting price of €699,000, falls between these two price points. The Atalaya villa distinguishes itself from apartments or smaller houses in the mentioned Estepona projects by being a detached villa focused on a quieter, residential environment, less centered on immediate beach access and more on a luxurious, private experience with amenities like a private pool and barbecue. While the Estepona projects may appeal to a broader audience seeking more accessible properties near amenities, the Atalaya villa targets buyers willing to invest more for space, tranquility, and a more exclusive setting, albeit with the consequence that a car is essential for mobility.
