The development offers 2, 3 and 4-bedroom apartments and penthouses. The architecture combines natural materials, warm tones and extensive landscaping, while large windows bring natural light into the interiors and connect the main living spaces with generous terraces. Depending on their position within the development, homes benefit from views towards the Mediterranean, the mountains or the landscaped gardens.
Interiors are designed around open, functional layouts with large-format porcelain flooring and fitted wardrobes. Contemporary kitchens feature porcelain worktops and Miele appliances or equivalent, complemented by Siemens washing machines and dryers or equivalent. The homes also incorporate aerothermal climate control with independent regulation by room and underfloor heating in the main living areas.
The communal areas are one of the project's main differentiators. Residents have access to outdoor swimming pools and a heated indoor pool, together with a gym with dedicated cardio, strength and yoga areas. The wellness facilities include a Finnish sauna and Turkish bath, while coworking spaces, private booths for video calls, a residents' lounge and concierge services add practical facilities for longer stays and year-round living.
The development is gated, with access control and 24-hour security. Each home has at least one parking space, with the possibility of acquiring additional spaces, as well as an individual storage room.
The beaches of Saladillo, Villacana and Guadalmansa are a short drive away, while Los Flamingos, El Paraíso and La Resina golf courses are also nearby. The location is particularly practical for buyers who want access to both Estepona and Marbella without being based in either town centre.

Location
Estepona East, Estepona
Estepona is one of the fastest-changing towns on the Costa del Sol. Once a quiet fishing village, it has reinvented itself as a vibrant coastal destination without losing its Andalusian soul. The population has grown from around 69,500 in 2019 to 79,621 as of January 2025 - over 10,000 new residents in five years, one of the fastest growth rates of any municipality in Málaga province. Roughly a quarter of residents are foreign nationals, spanning 135 nationalities: British buyers remain the largest single group, alongside large and well-established Scandinavian, German, French, Belgian and Dutch communities. The town marks this every spring with Foreign Residents' Day, now in its 25th year.
The municipality covers a remarkably diverse 137 km² of territory along 21 km of coastline. From beachfront urbanisations such as Bahía Dorada and El Velerín to hillside country estates in La Gaspara and the Río Padrón valley, buyers can choose…
