About this property

Overview

Marbella Club Hills Phase II offers apartments that live more like houses. The project has penthouses with separate offices, rooftop terraces reaching 218 square metres, first-floor flats with rear gardens behind the bedrooms, and duplex ground-floor apartments spreading across two levels. The four-bed ground-floor units suit families who want space without managing a villa. The penthouses, all with three bedrooms, give you a private rooftop rather than a shared upper terrace. Built areas run from 103 to 217 square metres, with the smallest being the two-bed first-floor flats and the largest being the four-bed duplexes.

The development sits on a hillside above the AP-7 in Benahavís, between Anantara Villa Padierna Palace and Marbella Club Golf Resort. Most homes face south-east and look over the golf course towards the sea, with Gibraltar and the African coast visible on clear days. You are three minutes from the golf resort and 10 minutes from Playa del Saladillo. San Pedro Alcántara is 16 minutes away for supermarkets and everyday services. Puerto Banús is 15 minutes, central Marbella 20 minutes. The site uses only a fraction of its 158,000 square metres for buildings, leaving the rest as open ground. This keeps the density low and the views open, but it also means you need a car for everything except walking the golf course.

The location suits golfers and families who want mountain air and space around them, and who do not mind a drive to the beach or the shops. If you want to walk to a bakery or eat out without taking the car, this is the wrong place.

Marbella Club Hills Phase II: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa del Saladillo is 4.3 kilometres away, which is a 10-minute drive. The hillside location in Benahavís and the inland side of the motorway mean the beach is not a walk. You need a car for the coast and for most other daily trips.

Terraces range from 43 to 218 square metres. The penthouses have private rooftops reaching 218 square metres. Ground-floor duplexes have rear gardens behind the bedrooms. First-floor flats have smaller terraces but still offer outdoor space with the views.

The International School of Estepona is 4.1 kilometres away, a 13-minute drive. Hospital Hospiten de Estepona is 4.8 kilometres, about 11 minutes by car. The nearest supermarket is 3.7 kilometres, nine minutes away. Everything requires a car from this hillside location.

Most homes face south-east. That orientation gives you morning sun and views over Marbella Club Golf Resort towards the sea. On clear days you can see Gibraltar and the African coast. The hillside position and low density keep the views open.

Marbella Club Golf Resort is 900 metres away, a three-minute drive. You can walk the course but not much else. The setting gives you mountain air, open views and low density, but you are inland of the motorway and away from the town. Quiet comes at the expense of convenience.

Buying off-plan in Benahavís means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.

Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.

Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.

New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.

Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.

Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.

Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.

Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.

Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.

Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.

Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.

In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
