Property Description

Ultra-Exclusive New-Build Villa Above the Golf Course in La Zagaleta - Benahavís

Positioned above the 10th hole of the original course within La Zagaleta, Benahavís, Villa Hermes is an architectural residence that defines contemporary luxury at its highest level. The property enjoys sweeping views across the surrounding mountains and the golf course, while offering absolute privacy within one of Europe’s most secure residential communities.

The villa has been designed to integrate seamlessly with its natural surroundings. A gently sloping driveway leads through landscaped grounds to a striking architectural form that balances scale, light and transparency. Floor-to-ceiling glazing, clean structural lines and carefully considered spatial planning create a residence that feels both monumental and serene.

The main living level is organised around open, interconnected spaces that prioritise flow and natural light. A contemporary kitchen with dual central islands forms the functional heart of the home, connecting effortlessly to the main dining and living areas. A subtle architectural division separates the formal lounge, where double-height ceilings enhance volume and presence. Expansive glass doors open onto wide terraces that extend the living experience outdoors, framing uninterrupted sea and mountain views.

Additional spaces on this level include a secondary lounge and a private guest suite, ensuring both comfort and discretion for residents and visitors alike. A glass-enclosed atrium introduces natural light deep into the core of the home, reinforcing the connection between architecture and landscape.

The upper floor is dedicated entirely to the principal suite, designed as a private retreat with a spa-inspired bathroom, generous dressing room and a secluded terrace oriented towards the Mediterranean. Two further en suite guest bedrooms complete this level, each designed with privacy and proportion in mind.

The lower level is conceived as a complete wellness and lifestyle floor. It includes three additional guest suites, a fully equipped gym, home cinema and games room, alongside a dedicated staff apartment with its own living spaces and kitchen. A standout feature is the state-of-the-art spa, complete with indoor pool, sauna and wellness facilities. A spectacular 15-car garage is seamlessly integrated into this level and accessed via private car lift or internal circulation.

Outdoor living has been designed as an extension of the interior experience. The swimming pool wraps elegantly around the terraces, creating fluid transitions between water, architecture and landscape. Multiple sunbathing platforms, shaded lounges and outdoor dining areas offer a variety of settings for year-round enjoyment in complete privacy.

Residents of La Zagaleta benefit from an unmatched level of exclusivity, including 24-hour gated security, two championship golf courses, a private clubhouse, equestrian centre and heliport. Despite its secluded setting, the estate remains just minutes from the coast and within easy reach of Málaga Airport.

Villa Hermes represents a rare convergence of architectural ambition, technical precision and location. It is a residence designed not only for living, but for defining a benchmark in contemporary European luxury.
