Marae Residences
Project lifecycle
Marae Residences, in context.
Marae Residences is a completed collection of four-bedroom, four-bathroom villas in Torremuelle, a hillside pocket of Benalmádena within the Casablanca neighbourhood, aimed at buyers who want contemporary coastal living without the crowds of the resort centre. Completed in December 2022, the two-storey homes range from 210 to 276 m² of built space and are priced between €1,599,000 and €1,899,000.
The architecture leans on the region's pueblo blanco vocabulary, reworked in clean lines: expansive floor-to-ceiling glass that opens to keep interiors cool, a discreetly placed staircase lit by a double-height window, and porcelain flooring running through the ground floor. Each villa has a private infinity pool and views across the coast, the Mediterranean and the mountains behind.
Of the six villas released, four are sold. Two remain available, offering a rare completed-and-ready entry into a small, near-finished scheme.

Live data refreshed nightly from our multiple independent sources.
The off-plan discount, stage by stage
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. Marae Residences currently sits in the Completed band.
This is not an off-plan gamble. Marae Residences was completed in December 2022, so the two remaining villas can be viewed, valued and occupied immediately — no construction risk, no timeline uncertainty. With four of six already sold, the choice is narrowing. Local resale data shows median values around €3,714/m² and an average asking price near €1.34m, against a wider 315-day average time on market; buyers here are acquiring a finished, move-in home in a small scheme rather than waiting on a launch.
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
2 of 6 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.
The premium, contextualised
Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.
Marae Residences is not priced against average Benalmádena 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 €7,614 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 €3,327/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Benalmádena
Torremuelle sits on the quieter southern edge of Benalmádena, where the hillside falls towards the sea. The nearest beaches — Playa de Arroyo Hondo and Playa Las Viborillas — are within a two to three minute drive, and the coastal train station is roughly 750 metres away, giving car-free access along the coast.
Daily needs are close: Maskom and Mercadona supermarkets, several pharmacies, and casual restaurants such as La Cúpula and El Muro all within a kilometre. Hospital Vithas Xanit International is under three minutes by car. 2°C at night, supporting the indoor-outdoor design the villas were built around.

Understand the full picture
Spanish purchases involve taxes and fees that catch first-time international buyers off-guard. We surface every figure that matters.
Typical off-plan payment schedule
Spanish new-build purchases are typically paid in three staged instalments, with every euro held under bank guarantee until completion.
Total cost of ownership
Spanish mortgage scenario
Indicative non-resident mortgage on the slider price above. Spanish banks typically lend 60–70% LTV to non-residents over 20–25 years.
Investment outlook
Three scenarios our analysts model on every Costa del Sol off-plan deal.
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.
