Marbella Este, Marbella
The project comprises 16 homes with 2 and 3-bedroom layouts. Rather than following a single format throughout, the different levels offer distinct ways of using the outdoor space. Ground-floor homes extend into private gardens, while the penthouses feature substantial terraces of up to 200 m² with private swimming pools.
The interiors are designed around open living and kitchen areas with a direct connection to the terraces. Large windows bring natural light into the homes, complemented by fitted kitchens, porcelain flooring and double glazing. Aerothermal technology provides hot water and underfloor heating, while home automation manages selected lighting, climate and security functions.
The communal areas add useful facilities without losing the more intimate scale of the development. Residents will have access to a swimming pool and solarium, spa and sauna, gym and landscaped gardens, together with private parking and storage.
Royal River works particularly well for those who prefer a residential setting surrounded by golf and greenery rather than being directly in the centre of Marbella. The trade-off is greater reliance on a car for everyday life, although the beach, Marbella and local services remain within a short drive.
Delivery is scheduled for Q2 2028.
