Regional Comparison

Compared to developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (€269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (€205,000), and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (€259,000), this penthouse duplex in Benalmádena Pueblo represents a significantly higher price point, reflecting its premium location, size, and specific features. These comparable properties, situated in various coastal towns, offer entry-level to mid-range options, often with fewer bedrooms or less expansive views and amenities. The Benalmádena Pueblo property distinguishes itself through its elevated position, direct views of the Stupa, and the inclusion of substantial furnishings, positioning it within the luxury segment of the Costa del Sol market.
