Benahavís, Málaga, Andalusia, Spain

Set within the elevated and secure enclave of Puerto del Almendro in Benahavís, this south-facing villa offers approximately 1,177 m² of built space on an expansive 7,881 m² plot, with nine bedrooms and nine en-suite bathrooms distributed between the main residence and an independent guest house.
Renovated to a high standard, the architecture reflects a contemporary Mediterranean style, combining white rendered façades, pitched tiled roofs and generous glazing to maximise natural light and frame the surrounding landscape.
The layout is designed around spacious, interconnected living areas that flow effortlessly onto terraces and gardens. Vaulted ceilings, large picture windows and open-plan reception rooms create a sense of volume and continuity, while the main kitchen and dining spaces are positioned to enjoy open views and direct access to outdoor entertaining areas. Multiple lounge zones allow for both formal hosting and relaxed family living.
The principal sleeping quarters are conceived as private retreats, with expansive en-suite bathrooms, dressing areas and terraces that capture sea and mountain vistas. Each additional bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, ensuring comfort and autonomy for family and guests alike. The separate guest house enhances flexibility, ideal for extended family, staff or long-term visitors while preserving privacy in the main residence.
Entertainment and lifestyle facilities are thoughtfully integrated, including a dedicated cinema room, wine bodega and a fully equipped gym, supporting both leisure and year-round living. Outdoors, two swimming pools serve different areas of the estate, surrounded by landscaped gardens, sunbathing terraces and varied seating areas that invite gatherings or quiet relaxation.
The approach is discreet and impressive, with a private driveway leading to substantial garaging and parking capacity for up to eighteen vehicles.
The scale of the plot ensures a strong sense of exclusivity and separation, while the south-facing orientation guarantees all-day sunlight and far-reaching views across the Mediterranean coastline and surrounding mountains.
Puerto del Almendro is a well-established residential area known for its privacy and elevated outlook, positioned just minutes from the beaches of the Costa del Sol, the boutiques and marina of Puerto Banús, and the amenities of Marbella and San Pedro. International schools, renowned golf courses such as Los Arqueros and La Quinta, and fine dining in Benahavís village are all within easy reach. This is a property that combines scale, independence and panoramic scenery with immediate access to the lifestyle that defines the western Costa del Sol.
