The Hills 1, in context.

The Hills 1 is a completed six-bedroom villa by Tobal Architects, positioned at the furthest end of The Hills — a gated enclave within La Quinta, Benahavís — and priced at €13,800,000. Its end-of-development plot of 1,785 m² is among the most private positions in the community, with uninterrupted panoramic views along the Mediterranean coastline. The 738 m² of built space is arranged across three levels: four bedrooms on the ground floor, including a master suite with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite, and a fully fitted lower level housing a gym, spa, home cinema, billiard table, and poker room. Interiors were conceived by Aalto Exclusive Design — a neutral palette punctuated with deliberate accents, framed by full-height glazing that draws the seascape into every principal room. Benahavís sits within what agents consistently describe as the Golden Triangle alongside Marbella and Estepona, one of the most liquid markets for ultra-prime residential property on the Costa del Sol. This is the sole villa in the development, and it remains available.

Off-plan entry typically offers the largest pricing headroom at the earliest stages. The advantage narrows as construction progresses — at completion the unit is priced at market. The Hills 1 currently sits in the Completed band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions

Roccabox analyst view

This is not an off-plan proposition — The Hills 1 is complete and immediately available. What the current market does offer is context: comparable six- and seven-bedroom villas in Benahavís are listed between €2,690,000 and €4,995,000, underscoring the degree to which this villa's specification, architecture, and plot position place it in a distinct tier. For a buyer seeking a singular, architect-designed residence with no delivery risk, this is one of precisely one opportunities in this specific community.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the Completed phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover — a window that closes as the build advances.

Scarcity and specification

1 of 1 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.

Risk-managed entry

Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.

Market reality

The premium, contextualised

Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.

The Hills 1 is not priced against average Benahavís resale stock. It is a premium new-build product with the specification, plot quality and amenity package that the broader resale market typically does not match. At €18,699 per built m² the relevant question is whether the premium is justified against comparable new-build completions — not whether it beats the area's median of €669/m².

La Quinta sits within the municipality of Benahavís, a hillside enclave between Marbella and Estepona that consistently records among the lowest population densities and highest per-capita income figures in Málaga province. The immediate area is anchored by La Quinta Golf & Country Club, and the broader corridor gives access to the courses, beach clubs, and dining of the Marbella Golden Mile within a short drive. Benahavís village itself — known for its concentration of restaurants — is close by. The coast road connects to Puerto Banús in under fifteen minutes, while Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport is reachable in approximately forty-five minutes. The combination of gated security, elevation, and southern aspect means the villa captures sea views and prevailing breezes without sacrificing connectivity.

Residency planning for non-EU buyers

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025. Non-EU buyers acquiring property at this value still have residency routes — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, and case-specific options — depending on circumstances. We introduce regulated immigration counsel before any commitment.

Common questions

Buying off-plan in Spain, answered

Straight answers to the questions our specialists field most. For anything else, the assistant above answers in real time.

Is The Hills 1 a good investment compared to the local resale market?

The Hills 1 is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Benahavís on price-per-m², the premium reflects new-build standards, plot quality and amenity package not typically available in the resale market. Our market analysts model the projected key-ready value on request.

What is the off-plan payment schedule in Spain?

Spanish off-plan purchases are typically staged: 10% on reservation (refundable holding deposit), a further 20% on signing the private purchase contract, and the remaining 70% on completion. Every euro paid before completion is held under bank guarantee — if the developer defaults, your money is refunded under Spanish law.

Can a non-resident get a mortgage to buy at The Hills 1?

Yes. Spanish banks routinely lend 60–70% loan-to-value to non-residents on properties at this value, over terms of 20–25 years at competitive rates. Roccabox introduces vetted non-resident mortgage brokers at no cost.

Does buying at The Hills 1 qualify for Spanish residency?

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025 under Organic Law 1/2025. However, other residency routes remain available depending on circumstances — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, work or family-based permits. Roccabox introduces regulated Spanish immigration counsel.

How far is The Hills 1 from Málaga airport?

Approximately 53 minutes' drive, with a direct route via the A-7 / AP-7 motorway.

What is included in the purchase price?

Price includes the unit as specified by the developer. Spanish purchase costs (VAT/IVA on new builds at 10%, AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, notary and registry around 1%, legal counsel typically 1%) sit on top of the headline price. The Roccabox team produces a personalised total-cost breakdown on request.

Can I personalise the property?

At the Completed stage, The Hills 1 buyers can typically influence layout details, basement configuration, finishes and specification ahead of handover. The window narrows as the build progresses. Our specialist will walk you through what's still negotiable on each remaining unit.
