Sky Marbella is a new development featuring 50 apartments and penthouses in Benahavís, Málaga. The project is situated inland at an elevation of approximately 238 meters above sea level, on the southern edge of El Madroñal and overlooking La Quinta. The development is currently under construction with an indicative completion date in Q3 2027. Residences vary in size and feature a private swimming pool on the terrace. The location offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and the surrounding mountains.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is located in the municipality of Benahavís, known for its mountainous landscape and rural character. The setting is inland, providing a secluded environment. The distance to the coast is approximately 5.7 kilometers as the crow flies. Due to the distance to amenities and the elevation changes in the terrain, a car is essential for daily mobility.
The residences are designed as luxury apartments with a focus on outdoor living. Each unit includes a private pool and spacious terraces, orienting the lifestyle towards the climate. The inclusion of underfloor heating and air conditioning allows for year-round occupancy. The layouts are open and modern, intended for permanent residence or long-term stays.
Construction is ongoing with a target delivery in Q3 2027. The project comprises 50 apartments and 16 villas within the same gated community. Architecture features organic shapes and extensive glazing. Specifications highlight high-quality materials, including finishes by brands like Gunni & Trentino and Corian on the façade.
The location is 'car dependent', meaning a private vehicle is required for mobility. The beach is approximately 5.7 km away as the crow flies, but due to the mountainous location, driving distance is significantly longer. The immediate surroundings offer limited facilities; daily groceries require travel to supermarkets over 3 km away.
This project suits residents prioritizing luxury, quiet, and views over immediate walking access to amenities. It fits families or couples leading an active life who do not rely on walking. The proximity of multiple golf courses makes it attractive for golf enthusiasts. With full climate control, the homes are also suitable for those spending winter in Spain. The secured environment offers extra privacy for those who value it.
The finish is described as high-end with specifications focused on durability and design. Floors are large-format porcelain (Inalco, model Pacific or similar), installed without cuts for a seamless look. Kitchens are finished by Gunni & Trentino. Façades use organic forms with materials like Corian. Interiors feature wooden slats and plasterwork. Technical installations include aerothermal systems for climate control, underfloor heating in bathrooms, and sound insulation around machinery rooms.
Prices for the apartments start from €1,495,000. Prices shown are indicative and vary based on apartment size, floor, and views. The project offers a range of types, from 2- to 4-bedroom units. Prices are always stated in euros.
Living at Sky Marbella means residing on a hilltop with a focus on privacy and tranquility. The environment is defined by the Benahavís mountains and the extensive La Quinta golf courses at the foot of the complex. Since the project is inland, the direct bustle of the coast is absent. The rhythm is dictated by car dependency; visits to the beach, supermarkets, or restaurants require planning and transportation. Common areas are designed for comfort, with amenities like a gym and wellness areas accessible daily without leaving the gated community.
The immediate area is dominated by nature and golf courses, specifically La Quinta Golf at 700 meters. Benahavís is a mountain village with 9,472 inhabitants (2025) and a rural feel. For beaches, one travels to San Pedro or Marbella. The 'Golden Triangle' offers a mix of luxury and culture. The elevation of 238 meters ensures cooler nights compared to the coast.
The map shows the inland position in Benahavís, south of El Madroñal and north of Nueva Andalucía. Distances to the coast and airport are measured as the crow flies.
Sky Marbella is located in the northwest part of the region, in the hills above Marbella. It is part of the 'Golf Valley'. It is not directly on the sea but overlooks the coastline. The position is strategic for those wanting to be near Marbella but not in the busy center.

Golf: La Quinta Golf is 700 meters away. Shopping: The nearest supermarket is 3.4 km away. Public transport is limited; a car is essential. The AP7 motorway is reachable within a 5-minute drive.

Compared to coastal projects in Marbella or Estepona, Sky Marbella offers more privacy and quiet but requires more driving. Similar projects like 'Be Lagom' or 'Tiara' share the 'Golf Valley' location. Sky Marbella distinguishes itself by offering apartments with private pools, a feature not standard in this price range nearby. Pricing starts higher than average new builds in Benahavís, justified by specifications and unit size.
