Grand villa in Montemayor, Benahavis with sea views, gym, cinema and pool

Set within the secure hills of Monte Mayor, this south-facing detached villa occupies a generous 4,075 m² plot, offering panoramic views across the Mediterranean and surrounding landscape. The property stands apart through its considered blend of traditional Andalusian architecture and calm Scandinavian interior design, creating a home that feels both timeless and quietly contemporary.

Monte Mayor is one of the Costa del Sol’s more exclusive gated communities, known for its natural setting and privacy. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, it remains within easy reach of the coast. Beaches, golf courses, and beachside dining are just a short drive away, while Benahavís, Marbella, and Estepona provide a wide range of restaurants, international schools, and everyday amenities.

The villa offers five spacious ensuite bedrooms, each designed with high ceilings, fitted wardrobes, and direct access to terraces, reinforcing the connection to the outdoors. The principal suite is particularly generous, featuring two private balconies—one with open sea views—a walk-in wardrobe, and a marble bathroom with jacuzzi bath.

The main living spaces are arranged to maximise light and flow. A large lounge connects directly to a covered terrace and the garden, where a private pool sits within a sun-drenched setting. The dining area links naturally with the fully fitted kitchen, which opens onto both covered and open terraces, as well as a gazebo and BBQ area. These outdoor spaces create a flexible environment for both everyday living and entertaining.

Floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the home frame uninterrupted views and enhance the sense of indoor-outdoor living that defines the Mediterranean lifestyle. The terraces provide multiple vantage points to enjoy the surrounding landscape, from quiet mornings to more social evenings.

On the lower level, the villa introduces a more lifestyle-focused element, with a fully equipped private gym designed in a loft style, a dedicated cinema room with office space, and a double garage. Additional features include a separate laundry room and guest toilet, adding to the practicality of the home.

The fully gated plot ensures a high level of privacy, while the elevated position offers a constant connection to the views. Combined with the security of the community and proximity to the coast, this property presents a well-rounded luxury villa suited to both permanent living and investment on the Costa del Sol.
