This detached villa stands directly on the beachfront in Torreguadiaro, a small coastal village beside Sotogrande on the Costa del Sol. The house offers six bedrooms and six bathrooms across 354 m² of living space on a 706 m² plot, with a private heated pool and sea views. Built in 1988 and since renovated, the property is key-ready and offered at a fixed asking price of €5,500,000. The marina of Sotogrande lies 1.0 km away as the crow flies, and several golf courses and international schools sit within a short drive.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Torreguadiaro sits on the Mediterranean coast in the municipality of San Roque, Cádiz, immediately east of Sotogrande. The villa's beachfront position places the sea directly at the property, while Puerto de Sotogrande (1.0 km straight-line), Santa María Polo Club (0.9 km) and Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande (2.2 km) are all within easy reach.
The villa is arranged for large households and frequent guests: six bedrooms, six bathrooms with five en-suite, underfloor heating in bathrooms, air conditioning for hot and cold use, and a fireplace. A rooftop pool with sea view and multiple terraces extend the living space outdoors. Daily needs are covered by 17 restaurants and two pharmacies within 2 km.
This is an existing home, not a new-build project. The house was completed in 1988 and has since been renovated and refurbished; it is described as being in excellent condition and key-ready, meaning it can be occupied immediately after purchase. No construction phase or delivery period applies.
The property does not form part of a new-build development, so there is no developer price list, no choice of units and no phased delivery. The plot of 706 m² is modest relative to the living area. No lift, garage details, storage or garden specifications are recorded in the available data, and the asking price is fixed rather than a starting price.

This property fits a recognisable set of situations. A family seeking a large coastal base near international schooling would find Sotogrande International School 6.2 km away in a straight line, with a second campus slightly further, and the six-bedroom layout supports a household that grows during holidays. Buyers moving permanently who want no renovation work and no waiting period benefit from the key-ready status and the recently refurbished condition. Households that host frequently, visiting family, friends across generations, are served by the five en-suite bedrooms, which reduce pressure on shared bathrooms. Golf players can reach Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande (2.2 km), Club de Golf La Cañada (3.3 km) and La Reserva Golf Club (4.8 km), all as the crow flies. Buyers who travel often may value Gibraltar airport at roughly 17 km straight-line, useful for UK connections, alongside Málaga at about 81 km for wider European routes. The property suits those who prioritise direct beach access above plot size: with 706 m² of land, outdoor space is concentrated in terraces and the pool area rather than an expansive garden. It is less obvious a match for buyers seeking a new-build warranty structure, a gated community with shared facilities, or a large private garden, the available data does not record those features. The asking level of €5,500,000 places it in the upper segment of the local market, which narrows the buyer pool to those with a budget for prime beachfront stock.
The house was built in 1988 and has since undergone renovation and refurbishment, with the current condition recorded as excellent. The interior finish level visible in the available material is contemporary: a glass-panelled shower with black fittings in one bathroom, a freestanding tub set against an ocean-facing window, and a modern entrance hall with mirrored wall and artwork. These details indicate a full interior refit rather than partial touch-ups. The technical specification recorded for the property includes underfloor heating in the bathrooms, air conditioning with both hot and cold functions, and a fireplace for the cooler winter months, a combination that covers year-round comfort in a coastal climate where January nights can feel damp. The private pool is heated, extending its usable season beyond the five months when sea temperatures exceed 20°C. Orientation is south-east, which in practice means the main terraces and living room receive sun from early morning into the afternoon, with the sea to the front providing light reflection and airflow. As an existing property, the buyer inherits a completed installation rather than a developer specification list: the appropriate due diligence covers the age of systems such as wiring, plumbing and the pool heating plant, ideally verified through a technical survey. No information is available in the data about the kitchen appliance package, window glazing type, insulation values or parking arrangements; these points should be confirmed during a viewing. Overall, the recorded features point to a home that has been maintained and modernised to a high standard, with the caveat that documentation of the works would form part of the purchase file.
The villa is offered as an existing home at a fixed asking price of €5,500,000. This is not a 'from' price: the figure applies to this specific property with its 354 m² of living space, 706 m² plot and beachfront position. Because the house is key-ready, there is no construction timeline and no staged payment plan; the standard purchase process for a resale property in Spain applies, including notary completion and the corresponding transfer costs. Availability is immediate upon completion of the purchase. Interested parties can request the full documentation, floor plans and viewing arrangements through the contact form.
Life at this address is organised around the shoreline. The villa opens towards the sea with a south-east orientation, which brings morning and midday sun onto the terraces and into the principal living spaces. The living room frames ocean views, and at least one bathroom contains a freestanding tub positioned towards the water, a layout detail that indicates how the views have been used inside the house rather than treated as decoration. Daily rhythms here are short: the beach is on the doorstep, seafront restaurants in Torreguadiaro are a short walk or drive, and the pharmacy, bank and everyday services sit within 2 km. The village retains a year-round Andalusian character rather than closing down outside the summer, which matters for anyone planning extended stays in autumn and spring. The rooftop pool, heated so it can be used beyond the warmest months, effectively adds a second living level with panoramic views over the coastline. For households that alternate between quiet weeks and full occupancy with family and guests, the layout works on both settings: five en-suite bedrooms let visitors stay independently, while the open living areas and terraces hold larger groups. Practical access is reasonable: Gibraltar airport is roughly 17 km away in a straight line and Málaga-Costa del Sol about 81 km, so both scheduled and low-cost routes are available. Within the immediate area, six public transport lines and 25 stops provide a basic bus network, though most residents will use a car for shopping, school runs and golf.
Torreguadiaro functions as a small, working coastal village rather than a resort enclave. Within 2 km of the property the data records 17 restaurants, two pharmacies and a bank, enough for daily life without leaving the immediate area, with fuller retail and services in Sotogrande and San Roque a short drive inland. The marina at Puerto de Sotogrande, 1.0 km away as the crow flies, adds a second hub of restaurants, chandleries and waterfront activity, and Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa lies 7.9 km further along the coast. For sport, Santa María Polo Club sits 0.9 km from the door during the summer season, and Complejo Deportivo Zona Norte is 2.0 km away for general facilities. Public transport consists of six lines and 25 stops in the area, sufficient for local connections but most residents will rely on a car; an IONITY fast-charging station for electric vehicles is 3.4 km away. Elevation is 7 m above sea level, so the terrain is essentially flat, walking to the beach, restaurants and the marina involves no slopes. The climate supports an outdoor routine for most of the year: the average annual temperature is 18.5°C and the swimming season runs about five months with sea temperatures of 20°C or more. Beachfront locations on this stretch carry the usual trade-off of proximity to the sea: salt air and humidity require consistent maintenance of exterior elements, and the front-row position means exposure to wind during eastern weather systems.
The map shows the villa's front-row position on the Torreguadiaro shoreline, with Puerto de Sotogrande just over a kilometre west and the golf courses of Sotogrande clustered inland. Note that the distances shown are straight-line; actual driving distances are longer. Gibraltar's airport sits just across the bay to the south-west.

Torreguadiaro occupies a specific niche on the western Costa del Sol: the last coastal village before the border province of Cádiz meets Málaga, directly adjacent to Sotogrande. Relative to Marbella (roughly 60-plus km east along the coast) it is smaller, quieter and more village-like, with Sotogrande supplying the premium infrastructure, marina, golf, polo, international schools, that usually defines the larger resort towns. To the west lie Estepona, La Duquesa and the Costa de la Luz. For buyers comparing the Costa del Sol's established hotspots, this location trades density and nightlife for village scale plus Sotogrande-grade amenities next door.
The property's position at the western end of the Costa del Sol gives it two airport options. Gibraltar (GIB) is approximately 17 km away in a straight line, roughly a 20 to 25-minute drive in practice, mainly serving UK routes, while Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) lies about 81 km straight-line to the east, with the coastal A-7 and AP-7 roads providing the connection. Beach access is immediate given the beachfront setting. Golf is a defining feature of the area: Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande at 2.2 km straight-line, Club de Golf La Cañada at 3.3 km and La Reserva Golf Club at 4.8 km. The two marinas, Sotogrande at 1.0 km and La Duquesa at 7.9 km, cover mooring and waterfront dining. International education is available at Sotogrande International School, 6.2 km away as the crow flies. Local buses run on six lines with 25 stops in the area, useful for trips within the zone, though a car remains the practical mode for most journeys.

The site sits at 7 m above sea level on flat coastal ground, with no significant gradient between the house and the shore. The climate data shows an average annual temperature of 18.5°C, consistent with the mild Mediterranean pattern of the Strait of Gibraltar: warm, dry summers and winters that rarely reach freezing. The swimming season lasts around five months, during which sea temperatures hold at 20°C or above, typically from late May into October. The heated private pool extends water-based use beyond that window, which is a practical point for owners who visit outside high summer. Being this close to the Atlantic entrance of the Strait, the area can feel slightly fresher and more breezy than the coast further east towards Marbella, with the poniente and levante winds influencing both temperature and sea state. Daylight and sunshine hours follow the southern Andalusian pattern, supporting terrace use through most of the year. The immediate natural setting is the beach and the shoreline of Torreguadiaro, with the wider countryside of the San Roque municipality and the Alcornocales natural park inland within driving distance.

Torreguadiaro's own beach runs directly in front of the property, providing the simplest possible beach routine, no parking, no walking distance worth mentioning. Along the wider Cádiz coastline, the data records two Blue Flag beaches at El Palmar and Vejer de la Frontera, both further west along the Costa de la Luz and reachable for day trips. Recreational infrastructure close to the villa concentrates on sport: Santa María Polo Club, less than a kilometre away as the crow flies, hosts high-goal tournament play in summer and equestrian activity beyond it; three golf courses lie within 5 km; and Complejo Deportivo Zona Norte at 2.0 km offers municipal sports facilities. The two marinas provide sailing, paddleboarding and waterfront leisure. For dining and social life, the seventeen restaurants within 2 km include the seafront chiringuitos of the village itself, within walking distance along the shore. The mix is essentially maritime and sporting, golf, polo, sailing and beach life, rather than mountain or inland recreation.

Within the Sotogrande area market, this villa occupies a different segment from the new-build developments currently on sale nearby. Projects such as Altara Alcaidesa (from €341,000), Atria in Sotogrande (from €423,000) and Adel San Roque (from €549,000) offer modern apartments and townhouses with phased delivery, developer warranties and community facilities, but without direct beachfront positions at this scale. This property, at a fixed €5,500,000, competes in the established villa segment, where the key variables are plot position and condition rather than developer specification. Its front-row setting on the Torreguadiaro beach is the primary differentiator: genuinely beachfront detached homes of 354 m² are rare along this stretch of coast, and most comparable Sotogrande villas sit in the estate zones, La Reserva, Kings and Queens, Valderrama, set back from the shore behind gates and golf greens. The trade-off is structural. New-build buyers receive a ten-year building guarantee, modern insulation standards and a purchase process spread across construction stages, but pay for location second. Here the buyer acquires a 1988 building that has been renovated, with the usual due diligence on installation age that an older property requires, in exchange for a position that cannot be replicated by inland new-build stock. Price per square metre, roughly €15,500 on living area, reflects beachfront scarcity in the Sotogrande micro-market rather than finish level alone. For buyers weighing both routes, the comparison is essentially between a guaranteed-new home one or two kilometres from the sea and a completed, refurbished home directly on it. The village setting of Torreguadiaro itself adds a further distinction: less gated, more Andalusian in character, with the premium infrastructure of Sotogrande, marina, polo club, international schools, within a short radius.
