A south-facing terrace of 68 m² provides panoramic views over the Mediterranean and the surrounding mountains. The asking price is fixed at €1,545,000. Two private underground parking spaces and a storage room are included. The residence benefits from a communal swimming pool and proximity to El Lago Club within the resort.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in Real de La Quinta, a residential resort area in the hills above Benahavís, roughly 10 km as the crow flies from Marbella. The setting is characterised by greenery and elevation, with golf courses nearby and coastal towns within driving distance. Marbella, Nueva Andalucía and Puerto Banús are the main reference points for shopping, dining and beaches.
The layout serves households needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with an additional guest toilet for visitors. The 68 m² south-facing terrace extends the living area outdoors for most of the year. Practical needs are covered through fitted wardrobes, a laundry area with washer and dryer, air conditioning and two underground parking spaces plus a storage room.
The building was completed in 2021 and the apartment is key-ready, meaning no waiting period or construction risk applies. The property is in excellent condition and can be occupied directly after purchase. Interior features such as underfloor heating in both bathrooms and pre-installed air conditioning reflect a recent construction standard.
The property does not include a private pool; swimming facilities are communal. There is no private garden. A car is required for daily errands, as shops and services are not within walking distance in this hillside resort setting. The data provides no information about pets, rental permission or community fees, so these points require verification.

This apartment matches several recognisable situations. A household seeking a second home with generous outdoor space will find the 68 m² south terrace and communal pool directly relevant, since terrace living defines much of the year in this climate. Families needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a guest toilet, can use the property for extended stays or school holidays. Buyers relocating permanently benefit from the key-ready status, the completed 2021 construction and practical features such as underfloor heating in the bathrooms, a laundry room and two parking spaces. Purchasers prioritising views and tranquillity over walkability will recognise their preference here: the resort setting is quiet and green, but daily errands require a car. Golfers and country-club users value the proximity to courses and the presence of El Lago Club within the resort. Conversely, buyers who want to walk to the beach, restaurants or shops, or who depend on public transport, should weigh the hillside location carefully. The property also suits those who prefer an existing, finished home over an off-plan purchase, avoiding construction delays and phasing risk. Finally, households with two cars and a need for storage will use the second parking space and separate storage room rather than viewing them as surplus.
The apartment was completed in 2021 and is documented as being in excellent condition. Interior images show a contemporary finishing standard: a modern bathroom with a freestanding tub and a second bathroom with a fitted vanity and mirror unit, both equipped with underfloor heating. The open-plan living and dining area is finished with large glazing that frames the sea view and provides direct access to the covered terrace. Climate control is covered from several angles: air conditioning is pre-installed as well as operational for both hot and cold air, a fireplace adds an additional heat source for cooler evenings, and the underfloor heating in the bathrooms raises comfort during winter months. Practical elements include fitted wardrobes, satellite TV and WiFi readiness, plus a dedicated laundry room with a stacked washer and dryer. The building has a lift, which matters given the first-floor position and the underground parking level. Outdoor finishes centre on the 68 m² south-facing terrace, part of which is covered, allowing use in both full sun and shade. Technical data on insulation values, energy performance or construction specifications beyond the completion year is not provided, so buyers wishing to verify build quality should arrange a technical inspection.
The asking price is fixed at €1,545,000 for this existing, completed apartment. This is not a price-list project with variable unit pricing; the figure applies to the specific 150 m² three-bedroom unit with its 68 m² terrace, two parking spaces and storage room. At approximately €10,300 per m² of built area, the price reflects the Benahavís hillside market segment, where views, resort facilities and recent construction date carry weight. Availability is immediate, since the property is key-ready and was completed in 2021. Additional purchase costs such as transfer tax, notary and registry fees are not included in the asking price.
Daily life at this apartment revolves around the contrast between the quiet hillside setting and the accessible Costa del Sol coastline. Mornings can begin on the south-facing terrace, which receives sun throughout the day and looks out over the sea and mountains. The open-plan living and dining area connects directly to this outdoor space, so the terrace functions as an extension of the interior rather than a separate add-on. Meals outdoors remain practical well into autumn, given the regional average annual temperature of 18.8 °C and a swimming season of roughly five months. Within the Olivos development, residents share a communal swimming pool, and El Lago Club operates as a social and leisure venue inside the resort. For groceries, schools and healthcare, residents travel by car towards Benahavís, San Pedro de Alcántara or Marbella. The apartment's own infrastructure supports year-round residence: a laundry room with stacked washer and dryer, fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, air conditioning for hot and cold use, and underfloor heating in both bathrooms. Two underground parking spaces and a separate storage room accommodate a household with two vehicles and seasonal belongings. Evenings tend to be quiet, as the resort sits away from through-traffic and nightlife, while coastal destinations such as Puerto Banús remain available for dining out.
Real de La Quinta sits in the hills between Benahavís and the coast, a position that shapes daily logistics. Marbella lies about 10 km away as the crow flies, and the road route to its beaches, shops and old town takes longer than the straight-line figure suggests. The nearest documented beach, Playa de la Misericordia, lies 2.3 km in a straight line from the reference point in the dataset, though reaching the coast from the resort itself involves a drive down through San Pedro de Alcántara or Benahavís roads. Within a 2 km radius of the dataset reference point, amenities are abundant: 49 restaurants, 81 pharmacies, 27 banks and 26 cafés indicate a well-served urban fringe, but residents of the hillside resort should expect to use the car for most of these. Public transport exists in the wider area, with 8 lines and 50 stops recorded, and train stations such as Barbarela at 1.2 km straight-line distance, however, these figures relate to the Malaga-side reference point rather than the resort itself, underlining that a car remains the practical baseline here. The setting is flat near the coast (a 0.7% gradient to the beach) but the resort occupies elevated, sloping terrain, which is what produces the panoramic views.
The map shows the apartment's position in the hills of Real de La Quinta above Benahavís, with Marbella roughly 10 km to the south-east as the crow flies. Note that all distances shown are straight-line measurements; actual driving routes through the hilly terrain are longer. Use the map to judge the relationship between the resort, the coast and the road network towards Marbella and San Pedro de Alcántara.

Real de La Quinta occupies the hillside zone above Benahavís, one of the most elevated residential positions between Marbella and Estepona. Marbella, 10 km away as the crow flies, anchors the region with 147,958 inhabitants and the full urban offer of the western Costa del Sol. Málaga city and its airport connect the region nationally and internationally. Within this geography, the resort belongs to the quieter, view-oriented segment of the market rather than the beachfront or town-centre segments, with Puerto Banús and Nueva Andalucía as the nearest lifestyle hubs.
Accessibility is defined by the car. Marbella, at roughly 10 km as the crow flies, is the nearest large town with 147,958 inhabitants and a full range of services. Málaga city lies 56 km in a straight line and Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport approximately 5 km from the dataset reference point, though the actual drive from Benahavís to the airport takes considerably longer than the straight-line figure implies. Gibraltar Airport is about 101 km away as the crow flies. Golf is a structural feature of the area: the dataset lists Club de Golf Málaga Parador at 6.0 km, Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 6.4 km and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 8.6 km straight-line, while the property itself is documented as close to golf. Beaches within the dataset include Playa de la Misericordia and Playa de San Andrés, both 2.3 km straight-line, and Playa Sacaba at 3.2 km. Marinas at 4.0 km offer mooring and waterfront dining options. Road distances are longer than these direct figures; buyers should test the routes themselves.

The regional climate data records average monthly temperatures between 12 °C in the coldest months and 27 °C in summer, with an annual average of 18.8 °C. This supports outdoor use of the terrace for most of the year and a swimming season of about five months, during which sea temperatures reach at least 20 °C. The elevation of the dataset reference point is 21 m above sea level, but Real de La Quinta itself sits considerably higher on the hillside, which explains the panoramic sea and mountain views from the apartment. The gradient towards the coast is gentle at 0.7% near the beach, though the resort terrain itself is sloped, relevant for anyone with mobility considerations, despite the building's lift. Sunshine hours in the region support the south-facing orientation, which receives light throughout the day. The mix of mountain and sea views is a direct product of this intermediate elevation between the Sierra and the Mediterranean.

Coastal recreation is reachable by car, with Playa de la Misericordia and Playa de San Andrés both 2.3 km in a straight line from the dataset reference point and Playa Sacaba at 3.2 km. The dataset does not specify Blue Flag status for these beaches, so this should be verified separately. Golf is the closest recreational theme: the apartment is documented as close to golf, and three courses lie within roughly 6 to 9 km as the crow flies, Club de Golf Málaga Parador, Club de Golf de Guadalhorce and Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez. Sports facilities in the wider dataset include tennis and football venues, with Escuela de Tenis Cortijo Alto just 0.3 km from the reference point. Marinas at 4.0 km provide waterfront dining and boat access. Within the resort itself, the communal pool and El Lago Club offer recreation without leaving the community, which matters given the drive required for coastal trips.

Within the Costa del Sol market, this apartment occupies the upper-mid segment. At €1,545,000 for 150 m², the price per square metre sits well above the regional new-build benchmarks: comparable projects such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar start from €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €321,000. The difference is explained by three factors: location within the Benahavís hillside belt, view quality and plot of the Real de La Quinta resort, and the fact that this is a completed, immediately available home rather than an off-plan unit. Benahavís and the Nueva Andalucía, La Quinta corridor consistently rank among the western Costa del Sol's higher-priced zones, alongside Sierra Blanca and the Golden Mile, while Torre del Mar, Mijas and Estepona represent the more accessibly priced eastern and central segments. Compared with other properties in its own area, this unit's 68 m² terrace and dual parking provision are competitive features; buyers comparing options should weigh terrace size, view orientation and resort amenities against asking price, since hillside properties in the same resort can vary substantially depending on floor level and aspect. Marbella's market, 10 km away as the crow flies, recorded strong transaction volumes in recent years, with the wider province registering around 3,916 housing transactions per year in the dataset. Buyers prioritising walkability or beachfront access may find better fits elsewhere on the coast; buyers prioritising views, quiet and recent construction will find the pricing structure of this segment coherent.
