Who is it for?

Is Puerto del Almendro right for you?

Ideal if you

  • want peace and privacy with sea and mountain views
  • want a plot to build on yourself, or a villa on a large site
  • want a price range wider than just the top segment: from apartment to large villa
  • want to live close to Marbella, Puerto Banús and San Pedro without being in the bustle

Less suitable if you

  • want to live without a car: for shops and restaurants you drive to the village or the coast
  • want a fully gated estate with security (then look at Monte Mayor)
  • want golf on your doorstep (then look at Los Arqueros)

Where is Puerto del Almendro?

Puerto del Almendro is in the municipality of Benahavís, in the hills above the coast. Property portals such as Fotocasa place the area in the Los Arqueros – Puerto del Almendro zone, next to the Los Arqueros golf resort. Agents describe the area as an established residential enclave with peace and privacy, sea and mountain views, and Marbella, Puerto Banús and San Pedro close by.

Like El Herrojo and other areas, Resales does not always have Puerto del Almendro as a separate zone. Many properties are therefore listed under “Benahavís Centro”, even though they are not in the village. We sort them by the real area.

What can you buy here?

Puerto del Almendro is mixed. In our October 2026 listings there are 8 apartments and penthouses, 1 detached villa, 1 semi-detached house and 5 plots or pieces of building land. Asking prices range from € 449,000 to € 8.25 million, with a median of € 1.15 million. That makes the area more accessible than the large villa estates in Benahavís, while very large villas also occur.

If you want to build, there are plots of widely varying size. Always check whether a plot is ready to build on: what type of building is allowed, are water, electricity and an access road available, and is there an existing permit?

What to look out for

For a plot, the legal and planning check is the most important step: the cadastral data, the zoning of the land and the validity of any permits. For a villa you look at the first-occupation licence, the structural condition and any extensions without a permit. Our legal check goes through this step by step.

The roads are steep and winding, so a car is needed. Ask for the community accounts and the IBI of Benahavís before you make an offer.
