La Zagaleta villas.
The luxury villas of Marbella’s Golden Mile may set the standard for desirable high-end homes on the Mediterranean coast, but the properties to be found slightly inland in the exclusive La Zagaleta Country Club certainly match them.
This privileged enclave set on a private estate in the gourmet town of Benahavís provides some of the most desirable real estate to be found anywhere in Europe. The capacious villas for sale here—there are no apartment complexes within the boundaries of La Zagaleta—are of the highest quality and benefit from a host of facilities that rival the five-star resorts of Marbella. From their elevated location nestling in the foothills of mountains that rise behind Marbella, these homes enjoy magnificent coastal vistas that take in Marbella, Gibraltar and across the Mediterranean Sea to Morocco. Cinema rooms, saunas, Turkish baths, gymnasiums, home automation, landscaped gardens, spacious swimming pools—sometimes indoor pools too—and outdoor living/dining areas are par for the course within these properties. The country club itself provides a host of leisure options, including two highly exclusive residents-only championship standard golf courses and a very well appointed riding school/stables, with extensive hiking trails through the wooded estate surrounding La Zagaleta. An opulent club house with an excellent restaurant, luxurious bar, billiards room, tennis courts, party venues and private meeting rooms as well as a large swimming pool forms a social hub for residents and their guests. La Zagaleta Country Club is a gated community, with just two entrances protected by 24 hour security ensuring a safe and tranquil environment. Extensive green zones around the properties—each one of which has its own expansive grounds—guarantee privacy, but not at the expense of isolation. The vibrant lifestyle of Puerto Banús marina and all its quality restaurants, bars offering live entertainment and excellent shopping options, is just a ten to 15 minute drive away, with the glamorous Golden Mile a little further. The main A7 coastal highway and its sister AP7 toll road provide easy access to all the facilities of the Costa del Sol, while Málaga’s international airport is within 45 minutes by car. A private heliport offers a faster option for those in more of a hurry!
