What is Los Arqueros / Puerto Almendro?
Los Arqueros occupies a peaceful valley between the Benahavís road and the hills leading up to El Madroñal and La Zagaleta. The area is anchored by Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club, an 18-hole course designed by the legendary Severiano Ballesteros that follows the natural contours of a narrow valley with dramatic elevation changes and mountain backdrops.
The residential community surrounding the course is a mix of apartments, townhouses and villas, many with direct golf-course frontage. Puerto Almendro, the adjacent residential pocket, adds further villa plots to the south. Together they form a quiet, green enclave that feels remarkably secluded despite being barely 10 minutes from Puerto Banús and the coast.
Prices range from around €250K for a two-bedroom apartment to €3M+ for a frontline golf villa with valley views. The area appeals to golf enthusiasts, families seeking a quieter alternative to the coast, and investors attracted by consistent rental demand from visiting golfers.
