Libella is a new development located in Estepona, Málaga, offering apartments and penthouses. The project is situated in a rural hillside setting, providing panoramic views of the valley and the Mediterranean Sea. The residences focus on outdoor living with spacious terraces and modern finishes. The location is relatively secluded from the town center, making a vehicle necessary for daily amenities. Developed by AEDAS Homes as part of the 'Australy' project, it caters to residents seeking tranquility and nature close to the coast.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is situated on the outskirts of Estepona's urban area, near Selwo Park. The environment is characterized by a rural setting with abundant greenery and open spaces. Due to the hillside location, there is elevation gain and unobstructed views of the surroundings. The proximity to nature implies dependence on a car for accessing urban amenities.
The residences are designed for residents prioritizing outdoor space and natural light. With large terraces and a southwest orientation, there is a strong emphasis on outdoor living. The layouts are open and modern, suitable for both permanent residency and extended holiday stays. The presence of communal facilities such as a swimming pool and gym caters to a lifestyle focused on comfort and recreation.
Libella is a new construction development currently in progress. Completion is expected in 2026. As part of AEDAS Homes' 'Australy' project, materials and finishes are modern, complying with current building standards. Technical installations focus on comfort, featuring underfloor heating and air conditioning as standard.
The project is located in an area with limited public transport. A private vehicle is essential for daily life, as supermarkets, medical facilities, and the beach are several kilometers away. The immediate environment is quiet and rural, meaning no direct access to a vibrant city center within walking distance.

This project fits well with buyers seeking a modern home in a quiet, natural environment who do not wish to be completely isolated from civilization. It suits families looking for a peaceful place to live as well as buyers seeking a second home for vacations. The distance to the beach and golf courses makes it interesting for golfers and beach lovers. The necessity of a car means this project is less suitable for those who cannot or prefer not to drive. Also, for buyers wanting to live directly in the bustling city center, the quiet location may feel isolated.
The finish of the homes in Libella is modern and focused on sustainability and comfort. Kitchens are equipped with integrated appliances and have a neutral look. Bathrooms feature high-quality sanitary ware. A key technical feature is underfloor heating in the bathrooms, increasing comfort in the cooler months. The terrace finishes are carefully chosen to withstand the Mediterranean climate, allowing for year-round outdoor living.
Prices for residences in Libella vary depending on the type and size of the apartment. The offering includes homes with a surface area starting from approximately 109 m². Prices start from €660,000 and can go up to €1,125,000 for larger penthouses with the most extensive terraces. Variation in price is influenced by the floor level and specific views from the property.
Daily life at Libella revolves around tranquility and the balance between nature and comfort. Since the project is car-dependent, the day often begins with a drive to amenities in Estepona or Marbella. Back home, the quiet environment offers space for relaxation. The large terraces act as an extension of the living room, allowing for outdoor living for most of the year due to the climate. Communal amenities like the pool and social club offer opportunities for social interaction without leaving the premises. The proximity to Selwo Park and the mountains invites hiking and outdoor activities, while the coastline is easily accessible for a beach day.
The surroundings of Libella are primarily rural with plenty of greenery. You live here close to nature, with the Sierra Bermeja as a backdrop. This ensures a quiet atmosphere but also means dependence on transport for dining out or shopping. The proximity to Selwo Park provides a unique green environment, enhancing the sense of space. There are few commercial activities in the immediate vicinity, contributing to the peace. For vibrant nightlife or cultural activities, one must travel towards the center of Estepona or Marbella.
The map shows the location of Libella in Estepona, near Selwo Park and the main access roads (A7). One immediately sees the distance to the coast and the surrounding golf courses, highlighting the project's isolated yet accessible position.
Libella is located in the western part of the Costa del Sol, in the municipality of Estepona. This region is known for its combination of modern amenities and traditional Spanish charm. The location on the edge of Estepona offers the best of both worlds: the tranquility of the countryside and access to the amenities of a lively coastal town. Compared to the busier Marbella, located further east, Estepona is quieter and often more affordably priced, making it an attractive option for buyers seeking better value.
The beach is approximately 3.3 km away (Playa de Guadalmansa), meaning about a 10-minute drive to the sea. Málaga Airport is 41 km away (as the crow flies), implying roughly 35-40 minutes of driving time. For daily groceries, a supermarket is 3.0 km away. Medical care is closer with a hospital at 1.5 km distance. For golfers, there are several options nearby, including Club de Golf El Coto de la Serena (2.1 km) and Flamingos Golf (2.9 km). Public transport is limited; a car is therefore indispensable.

Compared to projects closer to the center of Estepona, like those in the marina area, Libella offers more tranquility and a more rural atmosphere. Projects like 'Azure Estepona' or 'Atalaya Emotions' are often located in more urbanized areas or closer to the coast, meaning less dependence on a car for simple groceries. However, the price per square meter in those central locations is often higher. Libella provides a good balance through lower density and direct proximity to nature areas like Selwo Park, which is unique for this region. Compared to projects on the 'Golden Mile' between Marbella and Puerto Banús, the environment here is less commercial and exclusive in terms of quietness, yet well accessible via the highway.
