Set on a plot exceeding 1,000 square meters, this 2025 energy-efficient home integrates photovoltaic solar panels, underfloor heating, and smart domotics. Designed across three levels with private lift access, it balances architectural elegance with modern efficiency.

Situated in Paraíso Alto, the estate captures commanding views overlooking the Benahavís valley. Residents enjoy close proximity to international schools, shops, and transport, while vibrant San Pedro de Alcántara and Puerto Banús are just a 10-minute drive away.

The home unfolds across a three-level layout highlighted by double-height ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows. An open-plan kitchen is outfitted with premium appliances and a central entertaining island, seamlessly connecting living spaces. The primary suite has a dedicated dressing room and a private terrace overlooking the grounds.

Outdoor spaces are framed by a private pool, jacuzzi, barbecue, and covered terraces, complemented by an expansive underground garage for multiple vehicles.

Priced from €4,000,000, Villa Paradise presents a compelling opportunity as a high-yield rental investment or year-round primary residence. Located minutes away from several championship golf courses, this new build delivers prime residential luxury in a sought-after coastal municipality.

The Ayuntamiento de Benahavís governs this sector of the coast, presiding over one of the wealthiest municipalities in Spain. Buyers here are typically Northern European executives, entrepreneurs, and golf enthusiasts who prioritize privacy, low-density zoning, and immediate access to premium sporting facilities. Unlike the dense coastal strips, Benahavís enforces strict building regulations that preserve sightlines and maintain a high ratio of green space to residential development. The local demographic is international, drawn by the stability of the property market and the excellent civic infrastructure maintained by the town hall. The municipality covers a vast area, stretching from the coastal highway up into the foothills of the Serranía de Ronda. This geographical diversity allows residents to enjoy a mountain backdrop while remaining minutes from the Mediterranean Sea. Security is a notable priority for the local government, with regular municipal patrols supplementing the private security arrangements of individual neighborhoods.

Paraíso Alto sits at the highest point of the El Paraíso community, offering clear advantages in terms of elevation and security. The road network connecting the neighborhood to the coast is direct and well-maintained. Driving down the hill, residents reach the N-340 coastal road and the A-7 motorway in under seven minutes. This junction provides rapid transit east towards Marbella and west towards Estepona. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport is a 45-minute drive via the AP-7 toll road, offering daily flights to major European capitals and international hubs. For alternative travel routes, Gibraltar International Airport is accessible in roughly 55 minutes, providing direct connections to the United Kingdom. The proximity to these major transport arteries ensures that international commuting remains highly efficient for business owners and frequent travelers. Furthermore, the local road infrastructure includes wide avenues and clear signage, making navigation simple for visiting guests.

Golf is a primary driver of property values in this specific postcode. El Paraíso Golf Club, an 18-hole course designed by Gary Player, is a three-minute drive from the property gates. It operates year-round and is known for its welcoming clubhouse, excellent restaurant, and active tournament schedule. Five minutes to the west lies Atalaya Golf and Country Club, which features two 18-hole courses and serves as the headquarters for the PGA of Europe. The Atalaya Old Course offers wide fairways and elevated greens, while the New Course provides a more challenging, technical round. A ten-minute drive brings residents to the Los Flamingos Golf Resort, home to three courses and the Villa Padierna Palace Hotel. This concentration of fairways ensures that residents have varied play options without needing to travel far. Golfers can easily secure tee times across different terrains, from parkland layouts to hilly courses with sea views, all within a ten-minute radius of their front door.

Families relocating to Villa Paradise benefit from a selection of highly regarded educational institutions within a short commute. Colegio Atalaya, offering bilingual education for students from early years through to university entrance, is exactly five minutes away by car. The campus includes modern sports facilities and a strong focus on technology in the classroom. Laude San Pedro International College, which follows the British curriculum, requires a ten-minute drive into San Pedro de Alcántara. For older students or those seeking the International Baccalaureate, Aloha College in Nueva Andalucía is easily reached in 15 minutes. These schools are a major factor in the year-round residential appeal of the area, ensuring consistent demand from families rather than just seasonal holidaymakers. The presence of these institutions also supports property values, as buyers consistently target neighborhoods within the catchment areas of top-tier international schools.

Daily logistics and shopping are highly convenient in this part of Benahavís. The Bel Air commercial center is a five-minute drive down the hill, providing access to a Mercadona supermarket, a Lidl, pharmacies, and banking facilities. For organic produce and international brands, the Carrefour in Estepona and the El Corte Inglés in Puerto Banús are both within a 15-minute radius. The nearby village of Cancelada, just across the A-7 highway, offers traditional butchers, bakeries, and local cafes. Residents can easily manage their weekly grocery runs without venturing into heavy traffic. Furthermore, the area is serviced by various home delivery networks, making it simple to order supplies directly to the villa. Hardware stores, veterinary clinics, and specialized wine merchants are all located within a short drive along the N-340 corridor, ensuring that every practical requirement is met locally.

When it comes to dining, Benahavís village is widely recognized as the dining room of the coast. A 15-minute drive inland up the A-7175 road leads directly to the village center. Here, traditional restaurants like Los Abanicos serve regional specialties including slow-cooked shoulder of lamb and fresh seafood. The village is packed with culinary options ranging from casual tapas bars to fine dining establishments like Amanhavis. Closer to home, the coastal side of the highway features beach clubs and chiringuitos. Saladillo Beach and Guadalmina Beach are an eight-minute drive from the villa, offering clean sands and restaurants such as La Antigua and Pepe's Beach for weekend lunches by the Mediterranean. The coastline here is less crowded than the central Marbella beaches, providing a more relaxed environment for swimming and sunbathing. Water sports, including paddleboarding and sailing, are readily available during the summer months at various rental stations along the shore.

Villa Paradise is a new development, fully completed and key ready. Buyers do not have to navigate construction schedules, staged payments, or development delays. The transaction is straightforward. Payment is made in full upon completion at the notary, at which point the keys are handed over, and the buyer takes immediate possession of the home. This eliminates the risk and waiting periods typically associated with off-plan purchases, allowing for immediate occupancy or rental deployment. The property is delivered as a finished product, with all structural work, interior fittings, and landscaping finalized. Buyers can immediately begin utilizing the home, organizing their furniture deliveries, and setting up their utility accounts without waiting for building licenses or habitation certificates to be issued by the town hall.

Frequently asked questions

What are the property sizes and starting prices at Villa Paradise?

Villa Paradise offers newly built detached villas starting from €4,000,000. Each property features 6 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, providing exactly 1038 m2 of built space. These homes include extensive basements, guest apartments, and multiple garage spaces. Prices vary depending on the specific plot orientation and final customisations chosen by the buyer.

What are the exact purchase taxes and closing costs for a new build here?

Because Villa Paradise is a new development, buyers pay 10 percent IVA instead of ITP. On the entry price of €4,000,000, the IVA amounts to €400,000, and the 1.2 percent AJD stamp duty adds €48,000. Legal fees run about 1 percent plus IVA, which is roughly €40,000. Finally, notary and land registry fees combined will add another 0.5 to 1 percent to your closing costs.

How does the payment process work since the properties are already built?

Villa Paradise is entirely key ready, meaning there is no construction schedule or staged payment plan. Once you sign the private purchase contract, you proceed directly to the notary to pay the full balance. Keys are handed over immediately upon signing the public deed of sale. You can typically complete the purchase and move in within 30 to 45 days, depending on your notary appointment.

How much are the community fees and what do they cover?

The exact monthly community fee is not yet fixed by the administrator, but it will be determined by the shared maintenance requirements of the development. These fees will cover the upkeep of the private access roads, the entry phone system, and the communal security infrastructure. Since each villa has its own private pool, private garden, and photovoltaic solar panels, your individual running costs will form the bulk of your expenses. The Benahavís ayuntamiento provides municipal street lighting and garbage collection for the immediate area.

What should I expect to pay for IBI and annual property taxes?

The final IBI bill is calculated by the Benahavís ayuntamiento based on the final cadastral value of the completed property. Because Benahavís has historically maintained some of the lowest IBI rates in Andalucia, your annual property tax will be highly competitive compared to neighbouring Marbella. Running costs for the home will be mitigated by the inclusion of photovoltaic solar panels and high efficiency double glazing. You will also need to budget for annual non resident income tax if you do not live in Spain full time.

Which golf courses are closest to the development?

Villa Paradise is located in the municipality of Benahavís, a traditional Andalusian village famous for its gastronomy and mountainous natural surroundings. You can drive to Los Arqueros Golf and Country Club in under 10 minutes via highway A397. The renowned La Zagaleta and El Higueral Golf are also a drive of 15 minutes from your garage. The properties are specifically classed as close to golf, making them highly convenient for regular players.

How far is the nearest beach and the international airport?

The nearest beaches are located in San Pedro de Alcántara, which takes approximately 15 minutes to reach by car down the Ronda road. For international travel, Malaga International Airport is a drive of 50 minutes via the AP7 toll motorway. Gibraltar International Airport provides a secondary option and is roughly 60 minutes away heading west. The development is located near major transport links, ensuring straightforward commutes.

Are there international schools located near Villa Paradise?

Yes, the development is situated close to several highly regarded educational institutions. Colegio San José in Guadalmina is a drive of 15 minutes away and offers bilingual education for primary and secondary students. Atalaya International School is also easily accessible within 20 minutes by car. This proximity to schools makes the layout with 6 bedrooms highly practical for large families relocating to Spain.

Can I rent out my villa for short term holiday lets?

Short term rentals are permitted, but you must register the property with the Junta de Andalucia to obtain a tourist licence. The Benahavís ayuntamiento regulates noise and occupancy, so you must adhere to local municipal rules regarding guest behavior. Homes with 9 bathrooms, a private pool, a gym, and a games room command premium weekly rates during the July and August high season. A local property management agency typically charges between 15 and 20 percent of the rental income to handle bookings and maintenance.

How is the property heated and cooled throughout the year?

Each villa is equipped with a comprehensive climate control system, including hot and cold air conditioning. There is underfloor heating installed throughout the entire property, including specific underfloor heating in all 9 bathrooms. Central heating and a traditional fireplace provide additional warmth during the cooler winter months. The energy required to run these systems is partially offset by the rooftop photovoltaic solar panels.

Is the property suitable for residents with limited mobility?

Yes, the properties at Villa Paradise are designed with specific access for people with reduced mobility. A private lift connects the basement garage to the upper residential floors, eliminating the need to use the stairs. The 1038 m2 built area features wide corridors and open plan living spaces that accommodate wheelchairs easily. Additionally, the inclusion of a ground floor guest apartment provides a convenient living space without step hazards.

What private leisure facilities are included inside the villa?

The basement and ground floor levels are fully fitted with extensive entertainment and wellness amenities. Residents have access to a private gym, a sauna, and a dedicated games room. Outdoor entertaining is supported by a private terrace, a courtyard, a barbecue area, and a custom bar.
