164 homes, and a hotel on the doorstep

Higuerón South Residences sits on the hillside in El Higuerón, between Fuengirola and Benalmádena, two minutes’ walk from the Higuerón Hotel. The scheme is 164 homes: 70 Deluxe Apartments, 49 Garden Villas, 25 Sky Villas and 20 Sky Penthouses, from €695,000 to €1,950,000. The Resales reference is R4871788.

The architecture follows the hotel rather than the other way round — corten steel, stone and wood, in four blocks named after four contemporary artists: Leiro, Brinkmann, Darko and Alfil. The collection of art is not decoration added at the end; it is the concept.

What you are actually buying

This is the model that separates El Higuerón from the rest of the coast: you are not buying a flat with a communal pool, you are buying into a resort with a hotel attached. Owners get access to the Higuerón Hotel’s services — Sport Club, Spa, Beach Club, the restaurants, and the concierge — with the first year’s membership fee for the Sport Club, Spa and Beach Club included in the purchase.

The four home types are genuinely different products, not four price points on the same plan. The Deluxe Apartments are the entry. The Garden Villas add ground-level outdoor space. The Sky Villas and the 20 Sky Penthouses are the top of the scheme, with private pools on the terrace and underfloor heating through the whole home rather than only in the bathrooms.

The specification

The finishes are named, which is unusual enough to be worth listing: Lube kitchens, Bosch or AEG appliances, Saloni floor and wall tiles with oak-mesh panelling in the bedrooms and living area, Kaldewei baths and showers, Duravit fittings, Hansgrohe taps, Santalucía wardrobes and Technal exterior carpentry.

Beyond the finishes: aerothermal air conditioning and heating, home automation with a water-leak detector and automatic supply shut-off, smoke alarm, alarm and safe. Two parking spaces and a storage room per home, an electric-car charger per home, and solar panels for the common areas. The buildings are certified under BREEAM and WELL, and built to CTE. The statutory warranty is ten years on structure and three on habitability, insured.

The estate

175,000 m² of green area, with the existing vegetation kept and replanted rather than cleared — olive, cypress and pine. On top of that: pools for adults and children, an outdoor cinema, a wellness area and outdoor sauna, picnic and barbecue areas, an orchard you can pick from, a business and meeting centre with coworking, an outdoor gym, and an app for the resort’s services.

The surrounding resort adds what a single building cannot: the Sport Club with tennis, paddle and a gym, the Spa with heated pools and a 130-jet circuit, the Beach Club on the shore, and restaurants including SOLLO by Diego Gallegos, which holds a Michelin star and a Green Star.

The numbers

The entry price of €695,000 for 89 m² works out at €7,809 per m² — the lowest of any Higuerón address we list, and below the CORE Higuerón entry at €11,397. That is the Deluxe Apartments doing their job: they buy you the resort, not the penthouse.

The top of the range reaches €1,950,000 for the Sky Villas and Sky Penthouses. We do not publish a per-square-metre figure for the top end, because the size of the specific unit and its terrace decide it, and a headline number would be misleading. Ask for the unit schedule.

What to ask before a reservation

The unit schedule: which homes are left, on which floor, at which price — and the terrace in square metres, exclusive of the built area.
What the second year of the Sport Club, Spa and Beach Club membership costs. The first year is included; the years after are not.
The community fee, and what it covers in a scheme with this many facilities.
Completion and licence status, and the first occupation licence — not only the promoter’s completion date.
The promoter’s note on finishes: materials may be substituted for equal or superior quality. Ask which choices are still open and which have already been made.

We compare this with the rest of the market from €795,000 to €11.4m in Luxury penthouses on the Costa del Sol — what the price ladder actually buys, and with the nearest Higuerón comparison on our CORE Higuerón I page.
