Request Information

Location: Benahavís

Living & Surroundings

The villa is located in a rural, quiet area in Benahavís, approximately 4 km from a supermarket and 6.7 km from a hospital. The proximity of 14 restaurants, 3 banks, and 4 cafés within a 2 km radius offers local amenities. Although the immediate surroundings are peaceful and rural, the distances ensure that the coastal amenities, such as beaches (approx. 7 km away) and marinas (Puerto Deportivo José Banus at 8.7 km), are easily accessible by car. The limited public transport (1 line, 1 stop) underscores the necessity of a private vehicle to make the most of the area and the wider Costa del Sol.

Map & Location

This map displays the villa's location in Benahavís, a municipality in the province of Málaga. Its inland position, surrounded by hills and nearby golf courses, is visualized.

Location in the Region

Benahavís is strategically located in the province of Málaga, between the well-known coastal towns of Marbella and Estepona. It is a mountain village just about 7 kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea, offering a unique position: the tranquility and nature of the hinterland combined with the proximity to the dynamic Costa del Sol. This makes it an attractive base for those wishing to experience the region's diversity, from the luxury of Marbella and Puerto Banús to charming old towns and the natural beauty of the Andalusian backcountry.

Accessibility & Amenities

Accessibility to amenities is a key aspect of this location. The villa is located 48 km (as the crow flies) from Málaga Airport (AGP), a considerable distance that necessitates travel by car. Beaches like Playa del Saladillo are approximately 7 km away as the crow flies. The nearest supermarket is 4 km away, and the hospital is 6.7 km away. For golf enthusiasts, several courses are within a 3.1 km radius, including La Zagaleta Country Club. The presence of only one bus line and stop suggests that public transport is not a primary option for most journeys. A car is therefore essential for daily needs and exploring the broader region.

Regional Comparison

The villa in Benahavís, priced at €4,895,000, positions itself in the upper segment of the Costa del Sol market. Compared to Sky Marbella Villas and Gate 3 Villa, also in Benahavís, with prices starting at €5,995,000 and €5,950,000 respectively, this property offers a slightly more accessible entry price within the luxury segment, while still providing considerable space and exclusivity. Acqua Gardens in Estepona, with prices starting from €418,800, represents a completely different market segment, focusing on apartments or smaller villas with an emphasis on coastal proximity and communal facilities. The location in Benahavís, inland and surrounded by nature and golf courses, distinguishes this villa from projects directly on the coastline. The emphasis on privacy, plot size, and sea and mountain views characterizes this type of residence, making it attractive to buyers seeking a quieter lifestyle away from the immediate coastal bustle, yet retaining the benefits of the Costa del Sol. The existing build status ensures immediate availability, which can be a differentiating factor compared to projects under construction.
