Ville A Benahavis Benahavís

Set within La Zagaleta, one of Europe’s most exclusive and secure private residential estates, this exceptional luxury villa occupies a privileged elevated position above the valley of the Old Course. Facing south and surrounded by the protected natural beauty for which La Zagaleta is renowned, the property offers an extraordinary combination of privacy, security, space and uninterrupted panoramic views across the golf valley towards the Mediterranean Sea and Gibraltar.

One of the pioneering residences of La Zagaleta, the villa was designed by renowned architect Pablo Villarroel and sits on an impressive private plot of 4,553 m². Its elevated position and orientation make the views one of the defining features of the property, with the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and surrounding landscape visible from almost every principal room.

The residence offers approximately 893 m² of built accommodation complemented by 325 m² of terraces, creating generous indoor and outdoor living spaces designed to take full advantage of the exceptional setting and Costa del Sol climate.

On the main floor, the impressive principal suite enjoys beautiful sea views and features a spacious walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with its own private sauna overlooking the Mediterranean. The same level includes a generously proportioned kitchen with marble worktops, a bar area and an elegant octagonal dining room, creating a sophisticated yet comfortable setting for both everyday living and entertaining.

A striking spiral staircase leads to the upper floor, where a private guest wing provides an en-suite bathroom and its own terrace, offering visiting family and guests an excellent degree of independence and privacy. The lower level accommodates two further bedrooms, including one with its own sitting area and kitchenette, providing additional flexibility for guests, extended family or staff.

A substantial separate section of the property houses a five-car garage and extensive storage facilities, while another large area offers significant potential for personalisation. This space could be transformed into a private home cinema, fully equipped gymnasium, wellness spa, entertainment area or additional bedroom suites, allowing the future owner to tailor the residence to their individual lifestyle requirements.

Outside, beautifully established terraced gardens surround an impressive infinity swimming pool with cascading water feature, creating a peaceful private retreat overlooking the golf valley and Mediterranean landscape. The elevated south-facing position ensures excellent natural light throughout the day while reinforcing the remarkable sense of seclusion and tranquillity that defines this estate. Solar panels and heat-pump technology are also integrated into the property.

Beyond the villa itself, ownership within La Zagaleta in Benahavís provides access to a lifestyle defined by exceptional privacy, discretion and security. The estate is internationally recognised as one of the most prestigious residential communities in Europe, with 24-hour security and strictly controlled access, offering residents an exceptional level of peace of mind within a vast natural environment only minutes from Marbella and Puerto Banús.

La Zagaleta residents enjoy access to an outstanding collection of private amenities, including two private golf courses, exclusive clubhouse facilities with dining and concierge services, a private heliport and an equestrian centre. Combined with its low-density environment, extensive green spaces and exceptional security, La Zagaleta offers a level of privacy and exclusivity that is increasingly rare on the Costa del Sol.

With its substantial elevated plot, spectacular Mediterranean and golf views, expansive terraces, five-car garage, flexible leisure spaces and privileged position within La Zagaleta, this is a distinctive opportunity to acquire an established luxury residence in one of Southern Europe’s most prestigious private estates.
