Compared to projects like Acqua Gardens (€418,800) and Aby Upper (€320,000) in Estepona, and Alba Benalmádena (€699,000), this villa is positioned in a significantly higher price bracket and segment of exclusivity. The starting prices of the comparable projects mentioned range from €320,000 to €699,000, which is considerably lower than the €4,500,000 for the villa in Benahavís. This price difference is attributed to the larger scale of the villa (354 m² living area on an 888 m² plot), its prime location in Benahavís, its proximity to exclusive golf courses such as La Zagaleta, and its private amenities like a heated pool and panoramic views. The projects in Estepona and Benalmádena appear to cater to a broader market, possibly focusing on apartments or smaller villas, whereas this villa targets the high-end segment for spacious, luxurious detached homes in an exclusive and serene environment.
