About Calanova Homes
Around Calanova Golf, in the hills behind La Cala de Mijas, a new villa quickly comes to around two million euros or more. Calanova Homes aims a good deal lower. The project consists of semi-detached four-bedroom villas in a gated complex, around 500 metres from the golf course. Our data lists three homes, between €960,000 and €990,000.
Two of those three are spacious family homes: 244 and 245 m² built, with 3 bathrooms, plots of 156 and 219 m² and terraces of 40 and 106 m². The third villa, at €960,000, is listed with 136 m² built, 2 bathrooms, a 126 m² terrace and the largest plot of 331 m². That floor area differs sharply from the other two, and we will have it checked before you make an offer. The homes are spread over several floors. Some have a basement with a flexible space for an office, gym or games room, and some a garage for two cars.
Every villa has a private garden, a laundry room, a storage room and 2 parking spaces, with energy rating A. The communal areas will include a large pool, a spa, a gym, a coworking space, a security post and a digital parcel point. A private lift and a private pool are optional. The project is still off-plan, with completion in July 2028 and no show home.

Calanova Homes in figures
With a median of €4,057 per m², Calanova Homes sits 19% below the median for new builds in Mijas (€4,984, 55 developments). Compared with resale homes in Mijas (€3,717 per m², idealista, September 2026), you pay 9% more, a small premium for a new villa with energy rating A. The €960,000 villa comes to around €1,084,920 all in: €96,000 VAT, €11,520 stamp duty, €5,800 notary and €11,600 lawyer. Note the spread: the two large villas cost €4,000 and €4,057 per m², while the smaller one works out at €7,059 per m². So for €30,000 more you get almost 110 m² of extra living space, if the floor areas are correct. Completion takes 21 months, against a median of 14 in Mijas.

Location
Calanova Golf lies between La Cala de Mijas and Riviera del Sol, in a green valley inland. The urbanisation has grown up around the golf course and consists mainly of villas and small residential complexes. Calanova Homes sits high up, at around 197 metres, surrounded by nature and open countryside. It is a quiet residential setting without a high street: for shopping, restaurants and the beach you take the car. Via the AP-7 you are quickly in Marbella or heading towards Fuengirola and Málaga.
The nearest supermarket is a 5-minute drive away. Calahonda beach is 8 minutes by car; on foot it is 51 minutes. Marbella's old town is 20 minutes away, Puerto Banús 24 and Fuengirola 19. Hospital Costa del Sol is 18 minutes away, St Anthony's College 19. Málaga airport is a 34-minute drive.

Sun, light and views
Here the sun rises at 7:00 on 21 June and sets at 21:40, giving 14.7 hours of daylight. On 21 December you still have 9.7 hours, with the midday sun at 30° above the horizon. Calanova Homes sits at around 197 metres above sea level.
Our data does not confirm sea views for the three villas in the list. Thanks to the elevated position at 197 metres, open views are possible, especially from a roof terrace; we check that plot by plot on site.
Homes and finishes
The kitchens get Bosch appliances, porcelain worktops, integrated LED lighting and a separate utility room. The bathrooms get electric underfloor heating, ceramic finishes, resin shower trays, thermostatic taps, LED mirrors and heated towel rails. Every villa has its own aerothermal system for hot water and air conditioning, and some villas get solar panels. For each villa we check which options are already included in the price, such as basement, garage and solar panels, and what a private lift or pool costs extra, alongside the bank guarantee and the building specification.
Payment schedule
As with most new builds on the Costa del Sol, you pay in instalments: a reservation deposit, a portion on signing the purchase contract and during construction, and the balance at the deed signing. Every payment before completion must be covered by a bank guarantee. We will send you the exact payment schedule for Calanova Homes through Privé.

Our honest verdict on Calanova Homes
Strengths
- A four-bedroom villa with private garden for under a million, rare around Calanova.
- 19% below the median price per m² for new builds in Mijas.
- Calanova golf course around 500 metres away.
- Energy rating A with individual aerothermal system and 2 parking spaces.
- Coworking and spa in the complex, handy for long stays.
Points to consider
- Completion not until July 2028; deposits for a villa still under construction.
- You can't manage here without a car: supermarket a 5-minute drive, beach 8 minutes.
- The €960,000 villa is listed at only 136 m²; that needs checking.
- Semi-detached, so you share a wall with the neighbours.
- A private pool and lift are optional and cost extra.
Who is Calanova Homes right for?
Calanova Homes suits families and golfers who want a proper villa with four bedrooms, a garden and room to work from home, in a quiet setting. The type is also interesting if you plan to let to families later on. If you would rather do everything on foot, or expect a detached villa on a large plot, you are better off looking elsewhere.

Off market: what you will not find online
Not every property on the Costa del Sol ends up on a website.
