Compared to other projects in the region, such as Acqua Gardens in Estepona (from €418,800) and Aby Upper in Estepona (from €320,000), this apartment in Benalmadena Pueblo positions itself in a more accessible price segment with a starting price of €270,000. While Alba Benalmadena in the same city of Benalmadena represents a significantly higher price bracket (from €699,000), this project offers a comparable living experience on the Costa del Sol. The location in Benalmadena Pueblo, at a certain altitude with views, distinguishes it from projects situated directly on the coastline. The proximity to amenities and Málaga Airport is a consistent advantage within this popular coastal region, but the specific elevation and the steeper slope to the sea give this project its own character compared to lower-lying areas.
