Virrey 3 is a small-scale development project comprising three contemporary villas in Las Lomas del Virrey, along the Costa del Sol. The project is currently under construction with an expected completion in the second quarter of 2027. The villas are situated on plots starting around 575 m² with a living area of approximately 1044 m². The location near Marbella provides access to local amenities and the coastline. The design is characterized by modern architecture focused on outdoor living, including a private pool and rooftop terraces.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is situated in Las Lomas del Virrey, a residential area connected to Marbella's famous Golden Mile. The location is approximately 42 kilometers from Málaga International Airport. Within a short distance, about 1.8 kilometers as the crow flies, lie the beaches of Playa de Nagüeles and Playa de la Fontanilla. The immediate surroundings provide access to various golf courses, including Golf Los Naranjos and Aloha Golf Club, both within a three-kilometer radius.
The layout of the villas is focused on residential comfort with five bedrooms and five bathrooms distributed across multiple levels. The villas are equipped with a private lift, facilitating access between floors. For daily necessities, such as supermarkets and pharmacies, one does not need to travel far; these are located within two kilometers. The presence of a private garage and sports facilities like a gym supports a lifestyle where many amenities are available within the home.
Construction of Virrey 3 is currently ongoing. The project involves a team of architects (ER Arquitectos) and developer Cosehisa. Technical specifications include advanced climate control systems and home automation. The project is designed to meet modern energy requirements. Completion is scheduled for mid-2027, meaning buyers should consider a construction period of approximately three years.
This project is not suitable for buyers seeking a historic home with character, as it is new construction. The location on a hillside (Las Lomas) implies elevation changes in the immediate vicinity. The location is not directly on the beach; reaching the shore requires transport over a distance of nearly two kilometers. Additionally, this is a small project of only three villas, meaning there are no extensive shared amenities like a large resort complex.
This project fits households requiring substantial living space and privacy. The five bedrooms make it suitable for large families or as a second residence for families who frequently host guests. The proximity to international schools, such as the British International School 5.3 km away, supports families with school-age children. For golfers, the vicinity of several renowned clubs offers practical advantages. Additionally, it is relevant for investors or buyers seeking a new build home where they can still influence finishing details, albeit within the developer's framework. The high price point excludes budget buyers and targets the luxury real estate segment specifically.
The finishings at Virrey 3 include materials standard for the high-end segment in the region, such as premium kitchen appliances and large glass openings for indoor-outdoor transitions. Technical installations include air conditioning and smart home systems for central management. Features like an elevator and cinema room indicate a focus on in-home comfort and entertainment. The outdoor space is designed as an extension of the living area, with a private pool and rooftop terrace featuring a jacuzzi. Construction quality is supported by the collaboration with ER Arquitectos, indicating a standardized and modern building process.
The price indication for villas at Virrey 3 starts from €5,700,000. The variation in prices up to €6,100,000 may be due to differences in plot size, specific position within the project, or finish level. The price per square meter is significantly higher than the average in Marbella, correlating with the exclusivity of the Golden Mile location and the size of the villas (1044 m²). Buyers should account for additional costs such as property tax (IBI) and community fees, despite the small scale of the homeowners' association.
Virrey 3 offers a living environment that combines the privacy of an exclusive villa with the infrastructure of Marbella. Situated in Las Lomas del Virrey, the location provides a certain distance from the bustle of the center while keeping amenities like restaurants and shops in the vicinity. The geographical position, at about 129 meters above sea level, offers views of the area and the sea, aided by the northeast orientation of the plot context. For residents, this implies the potential for morning sun on specific terraces. The proximity to various golf courses makes the location relevant for sports enthusiasts. The street layout and location on the 'Golden Mile' imply a certain status of the neighborhood. Daily life here is likely car-dependent due to distances to pedestrian zones, despite the relatively short distance to the beach.
The environment around Virrey 3 is characterized by a mix of residential tranquility and proximity to tourist attractions. With 52 hotels in Marbella, the region is tourist-oriented, but the specific Las Lomas neighborhood offers a safe and exclusive living environment. The presence of 5 health centers and a hospital 3.1 km away provides medical certainty. For sports and recreation, besides golf, facilities like gyms and tennis courts are available in the region. The beaches, including Blue Flag beaches like La Fontanilla, are within a short distance, enabling a wide range of water sports. The density of restaurants in the area is high, making dining options diverse.
The map shows the position of Virrey 3 in Las Lomas del Virrey. Distances to the coastline (1.8 km) and the nearest golf courses are visible. The contour lines indicate the location on the slope towards the mountain range, which defines the view lines.
Virrey 3 is located in Marbella, the principal city of the western Costa del Sol. Marbella has a regional function with 159,786 inhabitants and a diversity of amenities that surpasses the average Spanish coastal town. Compared to surrounding municipalities like Estepona or Mijas, Marbella offers a higher density of luxury amenities, international schools, and high-end real estate. The project location on the 'Golden Mile' positions it specifically in the top segment of the property market, between Marbella town and Nueva Andalucía.
Accessibility to Virrey 3 is car-dependent. Málaga Airport is 42 kilometers away as the crow flies, translating to a drive time of approximately 30-35 minutes. The beach is nearest via Playa de Nagüeles at 1.8 km. For daily groceries, a supermarket is located 1.9 km away. Puerto José Banús marina is 4.6 km away, a center for shopping and nightlife. Public transport in this specific neighborhood is more limited than in the city center, making car ownership necessary for practical mobility. The location near the AP-7 highway facilitates efficient travel to other cities on the Costa del Sol.

Compared to projects like Dunique Marbella (from €5,060,000) and Earth Marbella (from €5,125,000), Virrey 3 sits in a similar price segment. However, while Dunique often focuses on beachfront apartments, Virrey 3 offers true villas with more plot space and privacy. Compared to Four Villas (from €4,900,000), Virrey 3 is slightly more expensive, possibly explained by the specific location on the Golden Mile and the larger living area (1044 m² vs. average 900-1000 m² in similar projects). The Marbella region has a higher price density than nearby cities like Fuengirola or Torremolinos, mainly due to its international appeal and luxury amenities. Virrey 3's pricing reflects the location in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods (Las Lomas) as opposed to projects further inland or on the east side of Marbella.
