A four-bedroom semi-detached villa of 317 m² in Costalita, on the New Golden Mile between Marbella and Estepona. The property is fully furnished, recently renovated and stands in a front-line beach complex approximately 150 metres from the Mediterranean. It offers four double bedrooms, three bathrooms, a glazed terrace, a private garden of around 60 m² and access to a communal pool. The asking price is fixed at €1,700,000. Construction dates from 2005 and the home is key-ready, allowing immediate occupation.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Costalita sits in the Saladillo-Benamara area between Marbella (15 km as the crow flies) and Estepona, with Puerto Banús roughly an 8-minute drive away. The nearest beach, Playa del Sol Villacana, lies 0.4 km straight-line from the property, and the Coastal Path runs directly along the shore. Three golf courses and several tennis and padel clubs sit within 2.5 km.
The home is designed for year-round coastal living: four double bedrooms each with a private terrace, two en-suite bathrooms, a guest toilet, air conditioning for hot and cold use, underfloor heating and a glazed terrace functioning as a second living area. A private garden of some 60 m² and a large communal pool cover outdoor needs, while the property is delivered furnished and equipped for immediate move-in.
This is an existing property, completed in 2005 and subsequently renovated and refurbished, with a construction status of key-ready. There is no building phase or delivery waiting period; the home can be occupied directly after purchase. The plot measures 150 m² and the living area 317 m², distributed over multiple levels with terraces connected to each bedroom.
The property is a semi-detached house rather than a detached villa, on a compact plot of 150 m². Parking arrangements are not specified in the available data. The pool is communal, not private. There is no elevator listed, and the complex has a limited number of neighbours, which restricts on-site social facilities. Data on storage rooms and energy performance is not provided.

This property fits several recognisable situations. Relocating professionals and executives who need a high-standard home without the delay of furnishing will find the turnkey delivery relevant: the house comes fully equipped, including fitted wardrobes, a walk-in closet and a furnished living room. Families with children have one primary school within 2 km and international schools at 2.3 km (The International School of Estepona) and 7.7 km (Creators International School); the four double bedrooms accommodate a household of five or six. Buyers seeking a second home for extended stays benefit from the flat 2.5% gradient to the beach, no steep coastal walk, and from the year-round maintenance of the complex. Golf and racquet-sports enthusiasts are within 2.4 km of three golf courses and three tennis or padel clubs. Owners of electric vehicles can charge at the Estepona Supercharger, 0.9 km away. The property is less obvious for buyers wanting a detached villa on a large private plot, given the 150 m² plot and semi-detached construction, or for those requiring a private pool. Households dependent on public transport should note that eight bus lines and fifty stops serve the area, but a car remains the practical mode for most journeys here.
The house was completed in 2005 and has since been renovated and refurbished, with the current condition described as excellent. Interior features documented in the source material include a spacious living room furnished with Stressless recliners and an 86-inch curved television, and a glazed terrace converted into a climate-controlled second living area facing the gardens and pool. Storage is well provided for: all four bedrooms have large lined wardrobes and one includes a walk-in closet. The bathrooms are finished with generous countertops, ample storage, bidets and large bathtubs; the master bathroom combines a separate shower with a large bathtub. Climate systems are comprehensive: air conditioning for both hot and cold operation, plus underfloor heating, which is a meaningful comfort factor during the cooler winter months when average temperatures drop to around 12 °C. The south-facing orientation supports passive warmth and light across the main living spaces and terraces. Externally, the property includes roughly 60 m² of private garden with maintenance included, set within a complex of tropical gardens and a large communal swimming pool that is maintained year-round. Each bedroom opens onto its own terrace, extending the usable living area well beyond the nominal 317 m². No data is available on the insulation standard, window glazing class or energy performance certificate, so buyers wishing to verify thermal quality should arrange a technical inspection. The overall picture is of a finished, equipped home delivered in move-in condition rather than a project requiring further works.
The property carries a fixed asking price of €1,700,000, this is an existing home, not a new-build development with a price list, so no "from" pricing applies. The price reflects a 317 m² living area with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, recently renovated and delivered fully furnished, in a front-line beach complex on the New Golden Mile. Compared with new-build alternatives in the wider region, such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950) or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), this property sits in a substantially higher segment, justified by its beachside position and turnkey condition. The local market records around 711 housing transactions per year. Availability is immediate, as the home is key-ready.
Daily life at this address is shaped by its position within a low-density, front-line beach complex. Mornings can begin on the glazed terrace, which overlooks the tropical gardens and communal pool and serves throughout the day as a second living room, a practical arrangement given the south-facing orientation and the mild average temperatures of 12 to 26 °C across the year. The beach and the Senda Litoral coastal path are a short walk away, roughly 150 metres from the door, which makes seaside walking a routine rather than an excursion. The surrounding urbanisation is suburban in character: eighteen restaurants, three pharmacies, a bank, a café or two and a park all lie within 2 km, so basic daily errands are manageable on foot or by a short drive. The layout of the house, four double bedrooms each opening onto its own terrace, two of them with en-suite bathrooms, suits both permanent residence and extended stays with guests. The complex itself is described as quiet with few neighbours, and the pool area is maintained year-round. For sport, the Racket Club Villa Paderna is 0.3 km away and three golf courses sit within 2.4 km. An electric-vehicle Supercharger is 0.9 km from the property. In practical terms, this is a home for buyers who want beach proximity without isolation: Marbella, Estepona and Puerto Banús are all within easy reach by car, while the immediate setting remains residential and calm.
The immediate environment is beachside and suburban. Within 2 km, residents have access to eighteen restaurants, two cafés, three pharmacies, one bank and one park, which covers everyday needs without leaving the urbanisation. For leisure and sport, the density of facilities is high: the Racket Club Villa Paderna lies 0.3 km away, Club de Tenis at 1.6 km and the RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club at 2.1 km. Golfers can reach Club de Golf El Coto de la Serena (1.5 km), Flamingos Golf (1.9 km) and Tramores Golf (2.4 km) within minutes. A public swimming pool at Parque Antena is 1.1 km away. Beaches are the defining feature: Playa del Sol Villacana at 0.4 km straight-line, Playa de Guadalmansa at 0.6 km and Playa del Saladillo at 0.8 km. The terrain is flat, with a gradient of only 2.5% to the shore, at an elevation of 16 metres above sea level. Public transport consists of eight lines with fifty stops in the area, sufficient for local connections, though most residents rely on a car for regional travel. The setting remains quiet outside the summer season, as the complex is low-density with few neighbours, while the broader area between Marbella and Estepona is permanently inhabited rather than purely seasonal.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Costalita occupies a position on the New Golden Mile, the coastal strip between Marbella and Estepona that developed as a lower-density residential alternative to central Marbella. Marbella, with roughly 148,000 inhabitants, lies 15 km to the east as the crow flies; Estepona forms the western anchor of the area. Málaga city and its airport are approximately 55 km straight-line to the east, while Gibraltar is about 43 km to the west, giving the location two airport options within an hour by road. Within the Costa del Sol as a whole, the area trades the intensity of Marbella and Puerto Banús for a quieter, suburban beachside character, while keeping both within a short drive.
By car, the property is approximately 8 minutes from Puerto Banús and lies midway between Marbella (15 km straight-line) and Estepona. The marina Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 9.4 km away as the crow flies. Airport access is split between two options: Gibraltar (GIB) at roughly 43 km straight-line and Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) at roughly 55 km straight-line, road distances and travel times will be longer than these direct figures. Alicante-Elche airport, at approximately 446 km, is not a practical option. Day-to-day accessibility is strong: the nearest beach is 0.4 km away on foot, an EV Supercharger sits 0.9 km from the door, and shopping, dining and medical needs are covered within the 2 km amenity radius. Public transport is available through eight lines and fifty stops, which supports car-free living locally, though journeys to Marbella, Estepona or the airports are more practical by car. The coastal position at 16 metres elevation and a flat 2.5% gradient to the sea mean the beach is reachable on foot without stairs or slopes.

The climate data points to a typical western Costa del Sol pattern: average monthly temperatures range from 12 °C in the coolest months to 26 °C in summer, with an annual average of 19.4 °C. The swimming season lasts six months, during which sea water stays at or above 20 °C, a practical indicator of how long beach and pool use remains comfortable, roughly May through October. The elevation of 16 metres above sea level and the flat terrain mean no hillside exposure to wind and no steep walks; the microclimate is maritime and stable. The Senda Litoral coastal path, accessible about 150 metres from the property, offers walking and running directly along the shoreline year-round. Rainfall concentrates outside the summer half-year, so outdoor living on the terraces and in the private garden is realistic for most of the year, supported by the south-facing orientation of the main living spaces. For residents used to northern European conditions, the practical difference is that heating needs are modest, addressed here by hot-air conditioning and underfloor heating, while cooling demand in July and August is met by cold air conditioning.

Three beaches lie within 1 km of the property: Playa del Sol Villacana at 0.4 km, Playa de Guadalmansa at 0.6 km and Playa del Saladillo at 0.8 km, all straight-line distances along the same stretch of coastline. This density of beaches within walking distance is the central recreational asset of the location. Golf is the second pillar: three courses, El Coto de la Serena, Flamingos Golf and Tramores Golf, sit within 2.4 km, allowing regular play without long drives. Racquet sports are equally well served, with the Racket Club Villa Paderna at 0.3 km, Club de Tenis at 1.6 km and the RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club at 2.1 km. The communal pool within the complex covers daily swimming, and the public pool at Parque Antena (1.1 km) adds an alternative. For boating, Puerto Deportivo José Banús lies 9.4 km away. The swimming season of six months, combined with the flat coastal path, means outdoor recreation is not confined to the summer peak, walking, padel and golf remain practical through the mild winter months.

Within the wider Málaga province market, this property occupies the established-home, beachfront segment of the western Costa del Sol. The comparables in the region's new-build sector sit at very different price points: Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts at €269,950, Lantana Residencial in Mijas at €205,000 and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona at €321,000. Those projects are inland or eastern locations, sold off-plan or under construction, typically with smaller living areas and without direct beach proximity. The villa at Costalita instead offers what new-build projects in this price band cannot: a finished, furnished 317 m² home roughly 150 metres from the shoreline in a low-density complex, between Marbella and Estepona. Buyers comparing the two routes weigh a lower entry price and modern construction standards against immediate availability, a proven residential setting and walkable beach access. The immediate area records around 711 housing transactions per year and a provincial median income of €16,450, figures consistent with a market where coastal property is significantly priced above the local income base and driven substantially by international demand. Locationally, the New Golden Mile offers a middle position: quieter and lower in density than central Marbella (15 km away, some 148,000 inhabitants), yet closer to Puerto Banús, about 8 minutes by car, than most of Estepona's newer developments. The concentration of three golf courses within 2.4 km, multiple padel and tennis clubs, and two international schools within 8 km places the property within one of the better-served leisure and education corridors of the coast. For buyers whose priority is frontline beach living with turnkey condition, the competition consists mainly of other resale villas and apartments in Costalita, Saladillo-Benamara and the adjacent Atalaya area, rather than the new-build projects listed above.
