This completed detached villa is situated in Guadalmina Baja, a low-rise beachside residential area within San Pedro de Alcántara, west of Marbella. The property offers 1,303 m² of built space on a 3,112 m² plot, with eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms, and was completed in 2000 (indicative). The house includes a heated private pool, air conditioning, a gym, spa and sauna, and is oriented south-west with sea, garden and pool views. Amenities such as a supermarket (200 m) and pharmacy (146 m) are within walking distance, and the nearest beaches lie approximately 1.7 km away. Asking price: €9,900,000.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Guadalmina Baja lies on the coastal side of the A-7, between San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona. The villa sits in an established urban environment with shops, restaurants and services on foot or by bicycle. Marbella is 9 km away and Puerto Banús roughly 4.5 km. The terrain is flat (0.2% slope to the beach), with several golf courses within 3 km.
The property functions as a large family residence or entertaining house: eight ensuite-oriented bedrooms, multiple living and dining areas, a designer kitchen, cinema/lounge, gym and spa. Outdoor space includes covered terraces, a heated pool and landscaped gardens. Practical needs such as pharmacies, banks and sports centres are within a 1.5 km radius.
This is not a new-build project. The villa was completed in 2000 (indicative) and is listed in excellent condition. There is no construction phase or delivery schedule; the property is available in its existing state. Renovation status, technical installations and maintenance history should be verified through survey and documentation during due diligence.
The property does not offer direct beachfront access; the nearest beach is approximately 1.7-1.8 km away. It is a single resale villa, so there is no community of new-build amenities or developer warranty scheme. Málaga airport is 47 km away, requiring a car or transfer for air travel. No plot data indicate direct frontline golf positioning beyond proximity claims.
This property is positioned for buyers seeking a large, completed villa in an established coastal community rather than a new-build apartment. Recognisable situations include: a family relocating permanently to the Costa del Sol who need eight bedrooms and proximity to international schools within 3-9 km; a buyer hosting guests or multiple families simultaneously, where the bedroom count, spa and cinema room absorb high occupation; owners who want walking-distance amenities, supermarket at 200 m, pharmacy at 146 m, rather than total car dependence; and golf players, with El Campanario, El Higueral and El Paraíso within roughly 3 km. The property suits those prioritising space and privacy over frontline beach positioning, accepting a 1.7-1.8 km distance to the sand. It is less suited to buyers wanting a lock-and-go apartment, a new-build warranty structure, or a lower-maintenance property, given the garden and pool of a 3,100 m² plot. Buyers should also factor airport access: Málaga (AGP) is 47 km, roughly a 40-45 minute drive, while Gibraltar is an alternative at about 52 km. The flat terrain and 8 public transport lines with 50 stops in the area make the location manageable without a car for daily needs, though a vehicle remains practical for regional travel.
The villa is listed in excellent condition with contemporary architecture, natural wood panelling, stone finishes and a double-height entrance hall. Interior features include open-plan living areas, formal and informal dining spaces, a designer kitchen with premium finishes, and a principal suite with dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Technical installations comprise hot and cold air conditioning, a heated swimming pool, and fitted wardrobes throughout. The image material shows a modern staircase with designer lighting, landscaped grounds with mature trees, and living rooms with wood panelling and direct outdoor views. Given the 2000 completion date (indicative), buyers should verify the age and service history of core systems, air conditioning units, pool heating, plumbing and electrical installations, through an independent technical survey. Energy performance data are not provided in the listing; an energy certificate should be requested, as it is legally required for resale properties in Spain. Renovation works, if any, since original construction should be documented with permits and warranties. The covered terraces, chill-out areas and mature planting indicate an established garden, which typically requires ongoing maintenance contracts; buyers should budget for garden and pool servicing on a plot of this size.
The asking price is €9,900,000 for the completed villa, equivalent to roughly €7,600 per m² of built area. Pricing at this level reflects the land value in Guadalmina Baja (3,112 m² plot), the scale of the residence (1,303 m² built, 8 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms) and the amenity package including heated pool, spa and gym. As a resale property, the price is a single figure rather than a from-price range; negotiation, notary costs, transfer tax (ITP) and registration fees apply additionally. Availability is immediate subject to the sales process.
Guadalmina Baja is a consolidated, low-density residential area characterised by villas, mature gardens and quiet internal streets. Daily life here is oriented around the house and garden: morning use of the pool and terraces, short walks to the supermarket 200 m away and the pharmacy 146 m away, and bicycle or short car trips to the beaches at San Pedro and Atalaya (1.7 km). The flat terrain makes walking and cycling realistic options for most errands. Within a 2 km radius there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks and 3 pharmacies, which reduces dependence on the car for dining and services. The area is residential rather than touristic, so activity levels are steadier year-round than in resort zones closer to Puerto Banús. The villa itself supports a multi-generational or hosting lifestyle: eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms allow simultaneous occupation by family and guests, while the gym, sauna and cinema room provide indoor options during cooler months or midday heat. Sport facilities such as the Apolo sports centre (0.8 km) and Polideportivo San Pedro (1.5 km) are nearby, and three golf courses lie within roughly 3 km, including El Campanario and El Paraíso. For schooling, The International School of Estepona is 3.1 km away and the British International School 8.6 km. Marbella (9 km) and Estepona provide wider retail, healthcare and cultural options. The nearest hospital is 3.1 km from the property.
Daily life in Guadalmina Baja combines residential quiet with short-distance convenience. The supermarket at 200 m and pharmacy at 146 m make routine shopping a walking matter, and the flat terrain (0.2% gradient toward the coast) supports cycling. Within 2 km there are 69 restaurants, 10 cafés, 4 banks, 3 pharmacies and a dentist, so dining out rarely requires a long journey. Healthcare is anchored by a hospital 3.1 km away. Sports facilities include the Apolo centre (0.8 km), Polideportivo San Pedro (1.5 km) and a climbing wall (Rocodromo, 1.6 km). The area has 8 public transport lines and 50 stops, which is substantial for a suburban coastal zone, though services are less frequent than in central Marbella. Beaches at San Pedro, Atalaya and Isdabe lie 1.7-1.8 km away, reachable by bicycle in under ten minutes. Puerto Banús marina (4.4 km) provides mooring, dining and retail. Road access runs via the A-7 coastal road and the AP-7 toll motorway, linking Marbella (9 km) and Estepona in each direction.

The site lies at 9-16 m above sea level with a flat gradient, meaning no stairs or slopes between house and coast. Historical climate data for the area record approximately 3,856 sunshine hours per year, an average annual temperature of 19.3°C, and a monthly range of 12-26°C. The sea temperature reaches or exceeds 20°C for about six months of the year, defining a swimming season from roughly late May to October, extended in practice by the villa's heated pool. Winters are mild by Northern European standards, with average lows around 12°C, which reduces heating demand, although the listed hot/cold air conditioning covers both seasons. The south-west orientation of the property favours afternoon and evening sun on terraces, relevant for outdoor dining and pool use in summer evenings. Microclimate effects along this section of coast are limited by the low elevation and absence of mountain shelter, so conditions follow the general western Costa del Sol pattern.

At €9,900,000, this villa occupies the upper segment of the Costa del Sol resale market, and it is not directly comparable with new-build apartment projects in the region. Developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000) serve a different buyer profile: smaller units, phased delivery, developer warranties and community facilities such as shared pools and gyms. This property, by contrast, offers land (3,112 m²), internal volume (1,303 m²), private wellness facilities and immediate availability, attributes that in this price bracket are typically found only in consolidated villa areas such as Guadalmina Baja, Los Flamingos or the Golden Mile. Within Marbella municipality, Guadalmina Baja is positioned between the high-density luxury retail environment of Puerto Banús (4.4 km) and the quieter residential sprawl toward Estepona. Land values in this pocket have historically been supported by plot size minimums, golf adjacency and beach proximity without direct frontline exposure. Buyers comparing options should weigh three trade-offs: resale versus new-build (warranty, energy certification, maintenance history), villa versus apartment (privacy and space versus services and security staffing), and location within the western corridor (Guadalmina versus Nueva Andalucía versus Estepona, each with different price points per m² and different rental demand profiles). For rental yield considerations, large villas in this segment typically trade on capital preservation and lifestyle use rather than income, as nightly licensing in Marbella is restricted and management costs for properties of this scale are substantial.
