A detached villa of 628 m² on an 807 m² plot in the established residential enclave of El Paraiso, between San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona on Marbella's New Golden Mile. Completed in 2023 and offered key-ready with a fixed asking price of €2,495,000, the property comprises five en-suite bedrooms across three levels, a private pool, a landscaped garden and covered parking for two vehicles. The villa stands approximately 1.3 km from the nearest beach, as the crow flies, with two golf courses within about a kilometre.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The villa sits in El Paraiso, a low-rise residential area on the New Golden Mile west of Marbella. Marbella lies 14 km away in a straight line and Puerto Deportivo José Banús 6.6 km. El Campanario Golf Course is 300 m away and the beach at Playa Isdabe roughly 1.3 km as the crow flies. The area combines quiet streets with golf-side greenery and coastal access.
The house is arranged for year-round living: an open-plan living and dining area, a fitted German kitchen, five en-suite bedrooms, underfloor heating and air conditioning. A multi-purpose lower level can serve as a cinema, gym, office or guest suite. Terraces with south-west orientation, a private pool and a mature garden support outdoor use across the seasons.
This is an existing home, not a phased development. Construction was completed in 2023 and the property is delivered key-ready and fully furnished, with no waiting period or construction risk. The condition is reported as excellent. Buyers can inspect the finished villa and its surroundings before committing, which removes the uncertainty associated with off-plan purchases.
The property does not include a sea view; recorded views are of the mountains, countryside, garden and pool. The plot of 807 m² is compact relative to the living area of 628 m². Parking is limited to two covered spaces. The area has six public transport lines with 50 stops, but daily life here generally depends on a car. No lift is mentioned in the data.
This property fits a buyer seeking a finished family villa on the New Golden Mile without the lead time or uncertainty of a construction project. Recognisable situations include: a household relocating permanently that needs five en-suite bedrooms and proximity to schooling, The International School of Estepona is 800 m away and the wider area records 19 primary and 10 secondary schools; a second-home buyer wanting a property that works from day one, since the house is furnished and the swimming season runs about five months with sea temperatures above 20°C; and multi-generational families or frequent hosts, where the lower-level flexible space can be configured as guest accommodation with some independence from the main floor. The layout also suits buyers who work from home, as the lower level can serve as an office separate from the living zones. It fits less well for buyers who require a sea view, an apartment-style lock-up-and-leave, or a property within walking distance of a town centre, daily life here assumes a car for most journeys beyond the immediate neighbourhood. Buyers focused on rental income should note that the area's tourism offer is hotel-led, and any letting strategy would need to be assessed against local licensing rules. In short, the profile is a settled, space-hungry household that values privacy, golf proximity and quick coastal access over urban density.
The finishing level aligns with the 2023 completion date and the upper segment of the local market. Interior floors are natural wood, combined with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that connect the main living level to the terraces and establish the indoor-outdoor flow typical of contemporary Costa del Sol architecture. Climate control is twofold: underfloor heating for the cooler months and air conditioning for summer, which together cover the region's temperature range of roughly 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.2°C. Electric blinds and fitted wardrobes are installed throughout, and the kitchen is a fully fitted German brand, a detail that typically indicates higher-grade appliances and hardware than standard Spanish new-build specifications. The five bedrooms each have an en-suite bathroom, which reduces morning congestion in a full house and improves privacy for guests. The lower level is delivered as a large multi-purpose space, allowing the owner to fit it out rather than paying for a pre-determined configuration. Practical systems include WiFi, a storage room and a separate utility room, plus covered parking for two vehicles, relevant given the strong sun exposure of the region. The condition is recorded as excellent and the property is offered fully furnished, which shortens the gap between completion of the purchase and actual occupancy. Exterior elements, private pool, mature landscaped garden, covered and private terraces, are already established rather than newly planted, meaning the outdoor space is usable immediately and the planting already provides the screening and garden views noted in the property features.
The villa is offered at a fixed asking price of €2,495,000. It is an existing, completed home delivered in 2023, so there are no phase releases, reservations or price escalations as with new-build developments. The price reflects a finished, furnished property: fitted German kitchen, underfloor heating, air conditioning, private pool, landscaped garden and two covered parking spaces are all included in the delivered condition. For comparison within the wider province, new-build apartments on the Costa del Sol are marketed from roughly €205,000 to €321,000, placing this villa in the upper segment of the regional market. Availability is immediate, subject to negotiation and standard purchase process.
El Paraiso is a mature, low-density residential zone inland of the coastal road, defined by villa streets, mature planting and the adjacent golf courses. Daily life at this villa follows a settled rhythm rather than a resort one. The nearest beach, Playa Isdabe, lies about 1.3 km away as the crow flies, with Salduna at 1.4 km and Playa Atalaya at 1.7 km, all reachable by car within a few minutes or by bicycle along the flat terrain, since the gradient to the coast is only 1.4%. Groceries, banks and everyday services concentrate around the commercial areas of Cancelada and Atalaya nearby; within 2 km of the villa the data lists 31 restaurants, 4 pharmacies, 3 banks and 6 cafés, which indicates that errands are done locally rather than requiring trips into Marbella or Estepona. The house itself supports a dual rhythm. The main level works as the daytime zone: open-plan living and dining connected through sliding doors to shaded terraces and the pool, with afternoon and evening sun from the south-west orientation. Bedrooms sit separately, each with its own bathroom, which suits households with older children or regular guests. The lower level is unfinished in purpose, a flexible space that the data shows can function as a cinema, gym, office or guest suite. Evenings and weekends gravitate towards golf: El Campanario is 300 m away and El Paraiso Golf Club about 1 km, meaning a round or a lesson is effectively on the doorstep. The tone of the neighbourhood is quiet outside the summer months, with tourism infrastructure (24 hotels, nearly 7,000 beds) concentrated along the coast rather than in the residential streets behind it.
The immediate surroundings are defined by golf and low-rise housing. El Campanario Golf Course lies 300 m away and El Paraiso Golf Club 1.0 km, with the clubhouse at 1.1 km; together they function as the green backbone of the neighbourhood. Sports facilities extend beyond golf: RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club is 900 m away, which matters practically as padel is the most played social sport on the coast. Everyday amenities within 2 km include 31 restaurants, 6 cafés, 4 pharmacies, 3 banks, a dentist and a school, allowing most routine errands to be handled locally in Cancelada or Atalaya. Healthcare is covered by 2 health centres in the area. The terrain is essentially flat, 25 m elevation with a 1.4% gradient to the sea, so walking and cycling are realistic options for short trips. Public transport exists, with 6 lines and 50 stops recorded, but service frequency is oriented towards the coastal corridor; a car remains the practical mode for Marbella, Estepona and inland destinations. Tourism pressure is present (24 hotels, 6,897 beds) but concentrated on the seafront, leaving the residential streets comparatively quiet, particularly from October to April.
The map shows the villa's position between the golf courses of El Paraiso and the beach at Playa Isdabe. Marbella lies 14 km to the east along the coast, Estepona to the west, and both Gibraltar and Malaga airports sit within roughly 50 km. The pins mark schools, sports clubs, beaches and the Banús marina.

El Paraiso occupies the middle of the New Golden Mile, the coastal corridor between San Pedro de Alcántara and Estepona that became one of the Costa del Sol's principal villa zones after Marbella's classic east side filled up. Positioned 14 km from Marbella and roughly equidistant from Estepona, the area offers access to both while retaining the character of a settled residential enclave rather than a resort. Within the regional hierarchy it sits below Marbella's Golden Mile in price per square metre but above the eastern Costa del Sol developments around Torre del Mar, which is reflected in the transaction volume of 3,163 sales per year recorded for the wider area.
The nearest beach, Playa Isdabe, is 1.3 km away as the crow flies, with Salduna at 1.4 km and Playa Atalaya at 1.7 km; road distances will be somewhat longer. Puerto Deportivo José Banús marina is 6.6 km straight-line, reachable by car in roughly ten to fifteen minutes depending on traffic. Marbella lies 14 km and Estepona a similar distance west, giving the villa a position between the two. Both airports are within practical range: Gibraltar (GIB) at approximately 46 km and Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) at approximately 52 km straight-line, meaning drive times of around 45 minutes to an hour to either. Electric-vehicle owners can use the Supercharger in Estepona at 3.8 km or the Marbella Supercharger at 9.5 km. Public transport runs on 6 lines with 50 stops, adequate for occasional trips along the coast, though access to a car is the working assumption for this address.

The climate data points to a typical coastal Andalusian pattern: monthly average temperatures ranging from about 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual mean of 19.2°C. The swimming season extends to roughly five months with sea temperatures at or above 20°C, generally from late May into October. The villa's elevation of 25 m above sea level keeps it out of flood-prone low ground while remaining level enough, a 1.4% gradient, that the walk or ride to the beach involves no serious climbing. The south-west orientation of the main living spaces provides afternoon and evening sun on the terraces, suited to outdoor dining, though it also means midsummer afternoons are the warmest part of the day on the terraces and shading becomes relevant. Mountain and country views are recorded, reflecting the villa's position between the coastal plain and the Sierra Bermeja foothills inland. Nearby viewpoints at Mirador de la Charca de los Tubos (4.4 km) and Mirador del Tajo del Novio (4.9 km) indicate walking and hiking options a short drive away.

Three beaches sit within 1.7 km: Playa Isdabe (1.3 km), Salduna (1.4 km) and Playa Atalaya (1.7 km), all measured in a straight line. These are the quieter stretches of the New Golden Mile coast, backed by the hotel zone rather than town centres, so they are less crowded than central Marbella beaches in high season. Recreation is anchored by golf: El Campanario at 300 m functions almost as an extension of the neighbourhood, while El Paraiso Golf Club and its clubhouse lie about 1 km away. Racquet sports are covered by RozaRossa Tennis and Padel Club at 900 m. For coastal leisure beyond the beach, Puerto Deportivo José Banús at 6.6 km offers marina-based dining, boat trips and water sports. Inland, two marked viewpoints within 5 km provide walking routes into the natural surroundings. With roughly five months of swimmable sea temperatures, the practical recreation calendar runs from late spring through mid-autumn, with golf, padel and walking filling the cooler months.

Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this villa occupies the established upper segment of the New Golden Mile, and the comparison with current new-build stock clarifies its position. Recent developments cited in the region, Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €321,000), are apartment-style projects on the eastern and central Costa del Sol. Their entry prices reflect smaller units, communal facilities and, in most cases, phased delivery. This villa, at a fixed €2,495,000, offers a different product: a finished 628 m² detached house on private land with a pool and garden, located between Marbella (14 km) and Estepona on a stretch of coast where new-build villas of comparable size typically trade well above apartment pricing. The distinction matters practically. A new-build apartment buyer accepts delivery dates that may shift and communal living; this buyer inspects a completed, furnished home in an established neighbourhood where the planting is mature and the surrounding streetscapes are already settled. El Paraiso itself is one of the older golf-side enclaves west of Marbella, which means infrastructure, schools, health centres, shops, predates the current building cycle and is already in place, as the data on amenities within 2 km confirms. Against Marbella's Golden Mile proper, El Paraiso generally trades at lower prices per square metre while sharing the same coastal corridor and access to Banús; against Estepona town, it offers a quieter, lower-density setting at a higher price point. For buyers comparing a finished resale villa against off-plan alternatives, the relevant trade-off is between price and certainty: this property removes construction and delivery risk, at a level of cost that reflects its size, finish and location between two golf courses and the beach.
