Libella
Project lifecycle
Libella, in context.
Libella sits on rising ground just above Selwo Aventura, on the stretch of coast between Estepona, Marbella and Benahavís. It was conceived for buyers who want open sea views and a proper residents' club without taking on the upkeep of a villa. The building was completed in June 2025.
Of the 21 homes in our current release, 16 have sold and five remain, priced from €595,000 to €965,000.
The architecture takes its cue from the wings of a dragonfly, which explains the name. Every home in the first phase was sold on its sea view. Inside, the layouts are open plan, with the kitchen running into the living room and sliding doors opening onto deep terraces made for long lunches outdoors.
Underfloor heating is fitted throughout and each plan has two or three bathrooms.
Downstairs, the club does much of the work a resort would. There is an outdoor pool with solarium, a climatised pool, saunas, a gym, a coworking space, multipurpose rooms and a gastrobar for evenings when nobody wants to cook. A camera-monitored perimeter secures the gated grounds and there is bicycle storage for those heading to the coast.
Because the building is finished, what you see on a viewing is what you buy.

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. Libella currently sits in the Completed band.
Strictly speaking, Libella is no longer off-plan. It completed in June 2025 and that changes the case rather than weakens it. There is no construction risk, no staged payment schedule and no wait. Buyers can walk the finished building, judge the view from the actual terrace and complete promptly. Scarcity is real, with 16 of the 21 homes in this release already sold. On price, the listed built areas of 156 to 306 m² imply roughly €3,150 to €3,800 per m², against a Selwo median of €4,061 per m². Those built figures appear to include terraces, so the comparison is indicative rather than like-for-like. Prices exclude IVA but include garage and storage.
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
5 of 21 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.
Libella is not priced against average Estepona 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 €3,814 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 €3,124/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Estepona
Life here is measured in short drives. The nearest beach is 1.9 km away, about four minutes by car and the long sands of Playa de Guadalmansa are six minutes off. Golfers are well served. El Coto de la Serena lies 1.9 km from the door, with Flamingos Golf and Tramores Golf both within eight minutes. For racket sports, Club de Tenis y Pádel Estepona and Racket Club Villa Paderna are each about seven minutes away.
The practical side is unusually well covered. 2 km away, a two-minute drive and a supermarket, pharmacy and café are all within six minutes. Estepona town centre is 10 to 15 minutes away. Puerto Estepona takes 16 minutes and Puerto Banús 25 minutes along the A7, which also runs west to Sotogrande.
The mountain village of Benahavís is about 25 minutes inland. Gibraltar airport is 42 km away and Málaga airport 58 km, which market sources put at roughly 45 and 60 minutes. 6°C have kept the terrace usable for most of the year.

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.
