Sunset Villas presents an exclusive development of three detached residences in El Chaparral, Mijas Costa. Recently completed, these properties are ready for immediate occupancy. The site features contemporary architecture with a southwest orientation, maximizing sea views and natural light. Each villa sits on a substantial plot of 866 m² with a total constructed area of 397 m², spread across the main floor and a basement. The location is defined by its proximity to the protected El Chaparral forest and the coastline, offering a blend of privacy and access to coastal amenities.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Situated in El Chaparral, within the municipality of Mijas, the project occupies a coastal position on the western Costa del Sol. The area is characterized by a mix of modern residential developments and natural green zones. The site balances the seclusion of a cul-de-sac environment with the convenience of being part of a larger expat-oriented community. It acts as a transition point between the busier urban centers of Fuengirola and the leisure-focused developments of La Cala de Mijas.
This property addresses the need for expansive living space with a layout that accommodates multi-generational living or hosting. With six bedrooms and four bathrooms, the density of rooms allows for flexible usage. The inclusion of a lift ensures accessibility across floors, catering to long-term comfort. The private pool and large basement level are designed to support an active indoor-outdoor lifestyle, essential for the region's climate.
As a 'Completed' project, Sunset Villas eliminates the wait times associated with off-plan purchases. The build quality reflects current construction standards, including thermal insulation and modern roofing systems. Immediate delivery means that the landscaping, pool installation, and interior finishes are finalized and ready for use, providing security for buyers looking to relocate without delay.
The location is classified as car dependent, meaning a vehicle is required for daily tasks. The terrain includes a significant slope of 7.3% down to the beach, which may be challenging for those with limited mobility. Proximity to the airport implies potential noise overhead. The properties are strictly detached, meaning there are no shared community amenities like gyms or pools on-site.
This property is suitable for buyers seeking a permanent family residence with ample room for guests. It fits the profile of active retirees or semi-retired individuals who require space for hobbies in the basement and accessibility features like a lift. Golf enthusiasts will value the proximity to El Chaparral Golf. It is also a candidate for high-end holiday rentals, though the price point targets a niche market. It may not suit those looking for low-maintenance lock-up apartments.
The villas feature a robust construction designed for the Mediterranean climate. Facades use white waterproof mortar combined with ceramic tiles. Thermal bridges have been addressed with rock wool insulation and air chambers to regulate interior temperatures. The roof utilizes an inverted system with polystyrene insulation for durability. Interior partitions use double hollow brick walls for acoustic privacy. Notable features include armored pivot entrance doors and laminated glass railings for safety and aesthetics.
With an entry price of €2,548,000, the villas are positioned in the luxury segment. The pricing reflects the plot size (866 m²) and the high square meterage of 397 m². Compared to the average property in Mijas, this commands a significant premium due to the 'ready-to-move-in' status and the coastal proximity. Availability is limited to three units, focusing on exclusivity rather than volume.
Daily life at Sunset Villas is defined by its orientation and topography. Mornings begin with indirect light, transitioning to bright, sun-drenched afternoons on the terrace. The immediate environment is quiet, buffered by the pine forest, yet activity is never far away. The rhythm involves driving to larger supermarkets or medical centers, while the beach and local 'chiringuitos' (beach bars) are accessible by a short walk or drive. The presence of a basement allows for a separation of activities; the ground floor focuses on social living and cooking, while the lower levels provide retreat spaces. It suits those who prefer a structured, residential atmosphere over the transient nature of tourist zones.
The neighborhood of El Chaparral offers a suburban feel with high convenience. There are 44 restaurants within a 2km radius, indicating a strong food scene. The area is populated by international residents, fostering a diverse community. Access to leisure facilities is high, with tennis and bowling clubs nearby. The environment is safe and residential, with paved walkways connecting to the coastal paths.
This map illustrates the strategic position of Sunset Villas between the A-7 highway and the coast. It highlights the immediate access to El Chaparral Golf and the direct route to Malaga Airport.
El Chaparral sits centrally on the Costa del Sol, avoiding the extreme congestion of Marbella to the east and Torremolinos to the west. It offers a quieter alternative to Fuengirola while retaining access to its services. Compared to Mijas Pueblo inland, this location offers a milder winter climate and sea access, trading the 'white village' charm for coastal modernity.
The location is highly accessible by car, located just off the main A-7 motorway. Malaga Airport is 23 km away, making international travel efficient. Beaches are within 1 km, though the slope dictates caution. While a bus service exists (8 lines nearby), the frequency may require planning for daily commuting. The train station in Fuengirola (8.5 km) links to Malaga city.

Compared to projects like Bali Villas and WaveView starting at €1.8M, Sunset Villas is priced significantly higher (€2.5M+), justified by its larger footprint (397 m²) and premium location. Unlike inland Mijas projects, these villas offer immediate sea access. In the broader Costa del Sol market, this price competes with Marbella options, offering relatively better value for space due to Mijas's lower density compared to the Golden Mile.
