Your Dream Home in Benahavís

Living in absolute peace and quiet

One of the greatest aspects of living in the Marbella area is you’re never more than 10-15 minutes away from absolute tranquility. From the breathtaking hills of Benahavís, with its waterfalls, rivers and captivating nature trails, to the prestigious paradise of the Marbella Club Golf Resort and Riding Stables, it is evident that nature plays such a major role in our quality of life, that really a lifestyle cannot be deemed ‘luxurious’ without it in abundance.

For people who like to be away from it all, but never too far away

The area of Benahavís is located just a short drive from Marbella’s bustling coastal lifestyle, providing the perfect mix of prestige and serenity. Whilst the landscape is known for its rich greenery, dramatic gorges and fresh water pools, it also happens to be known as the Gastronomic corner of Andalucía, with the highest concentration of top-quality restaurants in the region.

Benahavís is one of the municipalities along the Costa del Sol to have held onto its local traditions and culture whilst also having the title of being one of the richest municipalities in Spain. This is largely due to the numerous high-end, iconic developments that are scattered around the area such as El Madroñal, La Zagaleta and Monte Mayor.

At the centre of the community sits the charming village of Benahavís, with its retro postcard appeal of sun-drenched restaurants lining the streets with their white linen tables, inviting fine diners to soak up the enchanting evening atmosphere.

A luxury lifestyle surrounded by nature

The appeal of living in Marbella and Benahavís goes beyond luxurious properties and high-end amenities—it’s the seamless integration of natural surroundings into everyday life. Areas like Monte Mayor, with its stunning villas, allow you to wake up to the sound of birds, with panoramic views of mountains and sea in the distance, with rivers like the Guadalmansa bordering the edge of your estate. Many developments have been carefully designed to complement their natural settings, offering not only privacy but also a true sense of retreat.

Nature and leisure at your doorstep.

Golf lovers will find that nature and leisure go hand in hand here. Marbella Club Golf Resort, La Zagaleta, and Los Arqueros are just a few of the elite courses nestled within these green valleys, where playing a round of golf feels more like an immersive experience in nature than a traditional day on the course.
