Quintessence Phase 2, in context.
On the wooded slopes of Alto de Los Monteros, five minutes from the centre of Marbella, Quintessence Phase 2 brings 49 contemporary apartments to a hillside where pine and olive groves fall away towards the sea. It is made for buyers who want the calm of the hills without giving up the town. There are two- and three-bedroom homes of 91 to 127 m², each with two bathrooms, priced from €620,000 to €1,375,000.
The architecture is quiet by design. Façades of soft ivory and natural stone frame panoramic glazing. Floor-to-ceiling doors slide back so the living room runs straight onto a generous terrace. From there the view takes in the Mediterranean, the ridge of the Sierra Blanca and the rooftops of Marbella below.
On a clear day the African coast settles on the far horizon. Kitchens are minimal in line but properly equipped, with high-end appliances and generous storage.
Completion came in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 40 of the 49 homes have already found buyers. Nine remain. Local agents have placed Alto de Los Monteros among the top three emerging neighbourhoods on the Costa del Sol. For anyone who would rather walk through a finished home than study a floor plan, this is a narrow window worth taking seriously.

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. Quintessence Phase 2 currently sits in the Completed band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions
Roccabox analyst view
Strictly, this is no longer off-plan. Completion came in the fourth quarter of 2025, so the usual off-plan questions about build quality and delivery dates have already been answered. What remains is scarcity: 40 of 49 apartments are sold, leaving nine. Every published price works out above the Casafari median of €4,735/m² for Marbella. That premium buys new construction, sea views and 20,000 m² of gardens in a resale market where homes average 238 days before selling. One point to check is that the Catastro record still lists the plot as urbanisation works on unbuilt land. Registration of the finished buildings should be confirmed during due diligence.
Reserving early
Why buyers reserve at this stage
01
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.
02
Scarcity and specification
9 of 49 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.
03
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.
Quintessence Phase 2 is not priced against average Marbella 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 €6,813 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 €4,736/m².

Alto de Los Monteros
Living in Marbella
Mornings here begin above the noise. The nearest stretch of sand is about four minutes' drive downhill. The blue-flag Playa de Los Monteros, family-friendly El Alicate and the long shoreline of Las Chapas are strung along the same coast. Marina Marbella is six minutes away for a long lunch by the water or an evening stroll into town.
Golfers have three 18-hole courses within reach: Javier Arana's Río Real, Santa Clara and the Robert Trent Jones Sr layout at Marbella Golf and Country Club. The padel and tennis courts at Puente Romano are around 15 minutes away. Dinner can mean the terrace at Finca Besaya, steak at El Carnicero, seafood at Los Sardinales or tasting menus at Skina.
Practicalities are close at hand. Hospital Universitario Costa del Sol is five minutes away and Quirónsalud Marbella six, with supermarkets within four to six. Families can look to the English International College, Deutsche Schule Marbella or Colegio Alborán. La Cañada shopping centre covers everything else. Málaga airport is around 35 km by road. The ten-year average high is 20.5°C and the low 14.7°C, which says most of what needs saying about the winters.

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 Quintessence Phase 2 a good investment compared to the local resale market?
Quintessence Phase 2 is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Marbella 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 Quintessence Phase 2?
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 Quintessence Phase 2 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 Quintessence Phase 2 from Málaga airport?
Approximately 38 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, Quintessence Phase 2 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.
