About the area

Why people love Benahavís

Benahavís is a small mountain village just inland from Marbella and Estepona, known for its many restaurants and the dramatic river gorge of the Guadalmina. Around the village lie some of the most attractive residential areas on the coast, with golf courses, gated communities and large villas in green surroundings.

Here you live close to nature and with plenty of privacy, yet only 10–15 minutes from the beach, Puerto Banús and San Pedro. The area attracts buyers who want space, views and security – from golf apartments to some of Spain’s most exclusive estates.

Who is it for?

  • Golfers – several of the coast’s best courses on the doorstep
  • Villa buyers – space, privacy and mountain views
  • Security-minded – many gated communities
  • Nature lovers – hiking in the mountains and along the river
