La Zagaleta, a philosophy of life
· 4 min. read
That’s right, La Zagaleta is a philosophy of life. It is a luxury residence that not only seeks excellence, exclusivity, extreme discretion, or innovation. It goes beyond that. It offers the best of the property world and the best of elite customer service.
Where is La Zagaleta?
La Zagaleta is at the top of the hills of Benahavis. This municipality, neighbouring Marbella, is nestled in the foothills of Sierra Blanca, in the mountains towards Ronda. It is also just a few minutes’ drive from the beach and other iconic points of exquisite luxury of the Costa del Sol, such as Puerto Banus or Puente Romano.
Its host municipality, Benahavis, is a beautiful town with a small town centre, but with large areas of pure nature. In its territory serene valleys intertwine with lush hills covered with forests. It has a total area of 145 km2, which includes, in addition to a beautiful white Andalusian village, several of the best developments of the Costa del Sol. For example, La Quinta, Los Flamingos or Montemayor. In its northern area, at the top, are the 900 hectares of the impressive La Zagaleta.
What are its residents like?
Away from the hustle and bustle of the coast, this globally renowned development has managed to attract successful businessmen, wealthy personalities, high-profile families, and celebrities from all over the world to its natural surroundings. The residents are top quality, as is the residence. If Benahavis is one of the towns with the highest per capita income in Spain, it is largely because it is home to several of the most important luxury developments in Europe. Of all of them, the one that ignites the data, without a doubt, is La Zagaleta.
The nationalities of the owners are very varied. It is estimated that they come from more than twenty places in the world. It should be noted that, in recent years, it has been detected that La Zagaleta has been rejuvenated. There has been a notable interest in its villas on the part of buyers between thirty and forty years old, many of whom are digital nomads linked to technology companies. La Zagaleta, located less than an hour from Malaga airport and with an excellent broadband connection, has all the advantages of a perfect permanent or semi-permanent base from which to work.
Why has La Zagaleta been so successful?
It is important to explain that the success of this complex in its property offering is due in part to close collaboration with leading architects. The resulting homes are always beautiful, efficient, and sustainable, as well as featuring the latest technologies in home comfort. Add to this the guaranteed privacy and security, and the result is a development that is unparalleled in Europe.
In the development of the villas, we have sought to make each house exceptional. Great care has been taken to ensure that, given the extraordinary natural surroundings, the building density is low. In this way, the houses always have beautiful views, whether they are mountain, sea, golf or various combined options.
Its privileged position in height, between 300 and 450 metres above sea level, offers a unique sensation, as the views of the coastline of the Costa del Sol and the Mediterranean Sea are amazing. One hundred kilometres of the Spanish coast and part of the North African coast can be seen. In addition, we must add to this spectacular horizon the fact that the natural environment of La Zagaleta itself is already dazzling. A wide variety of wild vegetation, with a Mediterranean profile, together with centenary trees such as chestnut, olive, pine and cork oak trees, coexist in the residential area. Also worth mentioning is the impressive golf course, which is perfectly integrated into the landscape.
Finally, it should be noted that La Zagaleta offers highly personalised services. For this it has Zagaleta Service Management that can attend to residents at all times. This is not a traditional concierge service, it goes further, because it manages tailor-made solutions. They cover everything from language tutors, to technical inspections of the homes; from home delivery of shopping, to cleaning and laundry services. Any aspect of the home that is needed to keep the villas in optimal condition, inside or out, is efficiently covered. And any aspect that makes life easier for residents is taken into account.
La Zagaleta is so special because its quality of life, privileged in every detail, is unmatched.
