Real de la Quinta RESIDENTIAL COUNTRY CLUB RESORT BUILT AROUND A PRIVATE LAKE

Wat is Real de la Quinta?

Real de La Quinta is a 200-hectare residential resort in the mountains above Benahavís, built into the hillside overlooking the Nueva Andalucía golf valley and bordering the Sierra de las Nieves UNESCO biosphere reserve. It is not a single development but a full master plan: a private lake club, a six-hole executive golf course, an incoming five-star hotel, and nine residential phases built out since 2022, developed by La Quinta Grupo Inmobiliario, a Benahavís-based group with more than 30 years in the area.

At the centre of the resort is El Lago Club: a 35,000m2 filtered lake stretching over 400 metres, with a sand beach, non-motorised water sports, a six-hole executive course designed by Ryder Cup player Manuel Piñero, and a wellness club run by Le Max Wellness Club (gym, 25m indoor pool, spa, sauna, hammam, and hot and cold therapy pools). Membership is separate from owning a property and is capped at 450. The lakeside restaurant, Saltao de Mar, serves Peruvian-Mediterranean food. An Angsana hotel, Banyan Tree Group's first in Spain, is under construction on the estate with branded residences alongside it.

Residential phases range from the earliest, Olivos (completed 2022, resale from around EUR850,000), through Quercus, Palmitos, Sabinas and Enebros, to the current flagship, Mimosas, plus the standalone Vista Lago project of 18 sustainable design villas from around EUR6.4M. Serviced plots and custom villa designs are also available directly from the developer. The estate holds BREEAM ES Urbanism certification, the first infrastructure project in Spain to receive it.

Wie woont er in Real de la Quinta?

Buyers at Real de La Quinta skew international: Belgian, Swedish, Canadian, American and broadly Northern European, alongside investors, professionals and second-home owners. What draws most of them is proximity to the Nueva Andalucía golf valley and Puerto Banús (around 15 minutes) without giving up quiet, views and direct access to nature at the UNESCO reserve boundary. The gradual, phased rollout since 2022 has also attracted buyers who want to secure a unit early in a project the developer is deliberately building out slowly rather than rushing to sell out.
