In Real de La Quinta, three villas respond differently to the steep terrain. The first uses broad horizontal lines and deep overhangs, with terraces that extend the living spaces outdoors and a gradual approach that opens to coastal views. The second combines internal garden patios with layered terraces, bringing light and greenery into the house as views move from the mountains towards the sea. The third descends with the slope; its roof gardens and stepped levels frame the coast and provide shade. Each villa has its own infinity pool and a mix of covered and open terraces.
In Monte Mayor, two villas use curved forms that follow the contours of the land. The first opens towards the pine-covered foothills, valley and Mediterranean, with living areas linked to the terraces and pool. The curved plan of the second also follows the mountain terrain, with its rooms arranged to take in views of the surrounding peaks and coast. Both homes include five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a separate guest toilet, a gym, sauna, garage and lift.
The wider setting offers a different feel in each area. Real de La Quinta combines green zones, water features and walking trails with golf facilities, a clubhouse, wellness spaces and restaurants. Monte Mayor sits among protected natural surroundings, with pine-covered slopes and broad views across the coast.
The design also responds to the Mediterranean climate. Green roofs capture rainwater and support rooftop planting, while drought-resistant gardens help limit water demand. Internal patios encourage airflow and bring greenery into the homes. Overhangs shade the interiors during summer and allow lower winter sun into living areas; solar panels sit on the upper green roofs. Together, these choices shape how the villas use light, air and outdoor space while keeping the landscape central to the design.

Location
Benahavis
Benahavís is the gastronomic capital of the Costa del Sol and one of its most exclusive inland municipalities - and, by Spanish Tax Agency figures, the wealthiest municipality in the country, with average declared income around €39,700 per capita, driven by the concentration of ultra-prime estates like La Zagaleta and El Madroñal relative to a small resident population. Tucked into the foothills of the Serranía de Ronda, just 7 km from the coast, the village itself is a whitewashed cluster of restaurants named for the Moorish-era fortress that once stood on the hill above it - it grew up around Montemayor Castle, which fell to Christian forces in 1485. The municipality stretches far beyond the village, encompassing some of the most prestigious gated communities and golf estates on the entire Spanish coast.
The numbers tell the story: Benahavís covers 145 km² of mountainous terrain, making it one of the largest…

Frequently asked questions
Where exactly is Vitae Villas?
Vitae Villas is in Benahavis.
How much do homes at Vitae Villas cost?
Prices at Vitae Villas range from €4.400.000 to €7.450.000. That works out at roughly €8.150 to €12.350 per m² of built area. The lowest-priced home available right now is a 5-bedroom villa at €4.400.000.
What makes La Zagaleta so exclusive?
A 900 hectare private estate begun in 1990 on a former hunting ground, with only two guarded entrances, around 420 homes among cork oak and pine, two private golf courses, an equestrian centre with 23 stables, a members-only clubhouse and a heliport. Its largest estates have traded for over 30 million euros. Benahavís guide
Is Benahavís really the wealthiest municipality in Spain?
By Spanish Tax Agency figures, yes: average declared income of around 39,700 euros per person, the highest in the country, because estates like La Zagaleta and El Madroñal sit against a small population. Just 9,472 people lived in its 145 square kilometres in January 2025, about 60 percent of them foreign nationals. Benahavís guide

What else is for sale near Vitae Villas?
In La Quinta, Tiara, a completed development of 56 homes, Altura Residences and Gate 3 are a short drive away. Near Monte Mayor there is little else new on the market. Monte Mayor guide
What should I check before reserving an off-plan home here?
The completion date as it will appear in the private purchase contract, not as it appears in a listing, and the bank guarantee or insurance that Spanish law requires on every payment on account once the building licence is granted. Ask for the individual certificate each time you pay. Santina Homes goes through the reservation terms, the payment schedule and the guarantee with you before you sign anything.
