Urbanización Olimpo introduces a new residential development of 18 detached villas in Mijas, Málaga. Positioned at an elevation of 36 meters above sea level, these homes focus on space and natural light, featuring a typical living area of 189 m². The development is located in an urban setting approximately 3.1 kilometers (as the crow flies) from the coastline, with essential amenities within walking distance. With an expected delivery in the second quarter of 2026, this project targets those seeking a permanent residence or a holiday home in Southern Spain.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is situated in the Urbanización Olimpo district within the municipality of Mijas. The location is characteristic of the Costa del Sol Occidental, offering a direct link between the coastline and the mountainous interior. The neighborhood is part of a larger urban context where the beach is nearby, yet the region opens up towards the mountain areas of Mijas Pueblo.
The villas are designed to meet the demand for independent living with privacy. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the layout offers space for families or groups. The inclusion of a private pool and sunny terraces supports an outdoor-oriented lifestyle. The architectural structure spans multiple levels, providing separation between different living areas.
This project is currently under construction with an indicative completion date in Q2 2026. The schedule accounts for full finishing, including kitchen and sanitary installations. Buyers have the option at the outset to select certain finishes, such as tiles and color schemes, from the defined 'Memoria de Calidades'.
Buyers should note that the location features a slope gradient of 7.3% towards the beach. Although amenities are within walking distance, the distance to the sea (3.1 km) and the airport (16 km) implies that a car is practically necessary for daily mobility. The project is not situated in a historic center but in a modern urban expansion.

This project suits households requiring space and privacy without being isolated from amenities. The setting is suitable for individuals who frequently play golf or practice water sports, given the short distance to both golf courses and beaches. It is also appropriate for families with school-aged children due to the availability of educational institutions nearby. The physical layout with stairs and slopes requires a certain level of mobility from residents.
The homes are finished using materials from reputable brands according to the 'Memoria de Calidades'. For flooring, there is a choice of Keraben ceramic tiles (75x75 cm) or Pedrosa vinyl (Redwood Click). Bathrooms feature Roca sanitary ware, including Rimless toilets and modern mixers. Kitchens are fitted with cabinetry and built-in appliances. Durable materials suitable for the local climate have been selected.
Asking prices for properties in Urbanización Olimpo range from €515,000 to €850,000. This price variation reflects differences in plot size or specific position within the project, as the villa type (4 bedrooms) is consistent. Prices exclude purchase costs and taxes (ITP/VAT). Published prices are indicative and subject to market fluctuations.
The living environment around Urbanización Olimpo is characterized by a mix of permanent residents and tourists. The proximity to sports clubs like Miraflores Tennis Club and various nearby golf courses indicates an active lifestyle among inhabitants. The presence of 44 restaurants and 19 cafés within a 2-kilometer radius points to a lively social infrastructure. Despite the urban density, the elevation at 36 meters and the presence of gardens provide sufficient shelter and privacy. The daily rhythm is defined by the balance between the tranquility of the private home and the activity in the immediate vicinity.
The Mijas region enjoys an average annual temperature of 18.7°C with over 3,800 hours of sunshine per year. The location on the Costa del Sol guarantees mild winters and warm summers. The surroundings offer various recreational options, including several Blue Flag beaches within a short distance. The proximity to Fuengirola harbor (8.9 km) and Cabopino marina (4.1 km) provides opportunities for water sports and dining.
The map shows the position of Urbanización Olimpo in relation to the coastline and surrounding neighborhoods. Notable is the short distance to the sea and the proximity of sports complexes. The topography is visible through the elevation changes towards the beach.
Within the Costa del Sol region, Mijas holds a central position between Málaga City and Marbella. The project lies closer to the coastal towns of Fuengirola and Benalmádena than to the historic center of Mijas Pueblo. This position combines the benefits of the tourist coastal zone with the amenities of a larger city (such as the hospital at 7.3 km and various shops).
Urbanización Olimpo is connected via the local road network of Mijas. The nearest supermarket is 1.9 km away, and a pharmacy is at 2.0 km. Beaches such as Playa El Bombo are 0.3 km away, though the steep slope (7.3%) should be considered. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is 16 km away as the crow flies. Public transport is available via eight regional lines, but a car is recommended for optimal mobility.

Compared to projects like Calanova Collection and Mijas Seaviews, Urbanización Olimpo is in a similar price bracket but offers a more direct location relative to recreational amenities like tennis clubs. While projects in the Mijas interior (near Mijas Pueblo) often offer a more rural character and larger plots, this project is more integrated into the urban structure of the coastal area. The pricing is competitive for villas with this number of bedrooms in this specific zone.
