Compared to projects like Aquamar in Torre del Mar, Lantana Residencial in Mijas, and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, this villa is positioned in a higher price bracket, starting from €1,650,000. This is attributable to its exclusive location in La Mairena, a significant elevated plot with commanding panoramic views, influencing its market value. The comparable projects in Torre del Mar and Mijas offer properties in a considerably lower price range, from €205,000 to €269,950. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona has a price point closer but still substantially lower. The focus of this villa on luxury, space, and a prominent vantage point with views distinguishes it from more coastal or lower-priced developments elsewhere on the Costa del Sol. The La Mairena development targets a specific niche of buyers willing to invest more for an exclusive setting and views, potentially prioritizing tranquility and nature over immediate beach access.
