About Lubina The Villas
Villas close to the sea are scarce on this side of the Costa del Sol, and new ones even more so. Lubina The Villas is a small development of seven villas in Las Farolas, an established urbanisation between Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas. Our data shows one villa for sale: 344 m² built on a 501 m² plot, with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 60 m² terrace and a private pool, for €1,765,000. Completion is planned for December 2026.
The villas are laid out over three levels. The basement holds a two-car garage, a plant room and a utility room. On the ground floor you will find the living area with open-plan kitchen, a bedroom that can double as an office, and a bathroom. The living room opens onto the terrace, garden and pool. Upstairs are the other bedrooms, including the main suite with a freestanding bath and access to private terraces, some with sea views.
The development is gated, with a private garden for each villa and automatic irrigation. Energy rating B is solid, but not the highest. Because there are only seven homes, you share little with neighbours and there is no large community with costly facilities. That keeps running costs down, but you have to look after the garden and pool yourself, or hire someone to do it.
Amenities
- Private pool for each villa
- Private garden with automatic irrigation
- Two-car garage in the basement
- Laundry and storage room
- Gated development
- Main suite with freestanding bath
- Home automation for lighting, shading and climate
Lubina The Villas in figures
For a villa this close to the sea, the price per m² is remarkably ordinary. At €5,131 per m², Lubina The Villas is only 3% above the median for new developments in Mijas (€4,984, 55 projects), and that median is made up mostly of apartments. Compared with resale homes in Mijas (€3,717 per m², idealista, September 2026), you pay 38% more. Do your sums carefully, though: with €176,500 VAT, €21,180 stamp duty, €10,600 notary and €21,400 lawyer, you reach around €1,994,680, just under two million. The outdoor space is limited to a 60 m² terrace, which is not much for a villa; the garden on a 501 m² plot makes up for it. Completion in 2 months is much sooner than the median of 14 months in the municipality.

Location
Las Farolas is a quiet, mature urbanisation in Mijas Costa, on the coast between Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas. It is a residential area that has been here for years, not a building site still taking shape. The development sits at around 24 metres, close to the sea, and is easily reached via the A-7 coastal road. La Cala de Mijas, with its shops and restaurants, is around 3 km away. Golfers will find El Chaparral Golf around 2 km away.
The developer quotes 100 metres to the beach. Our measurement to Playa del Charcón and Playa Marina gives 331 metres as the crow flies, but a 28-minute walking route; by car it is 9 minutes. Mercadona is a 7-minute drive, St Anthony's College 15. Fuengirola centre is 16 minutes away, Marbella 27. Málaga airport is a 38-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. Lubina The Villas sits at around 24 metres above sea level.
The villa in our data has sea views. The developer refers to partial views of the sea and mountains, mainly from the upper-floor terraces. For each villa, we check what you can really see from which floor.
Homes and finishes
The kitchens come with Bosch appliances. Underfloor heating runs on aerothermal energy, the air conditioning is ducted, and home automation controls shading, lighting and climate. The bedrooms have motorised shutters. The gardens are landscaped with automatic irrigation. Because completion is close, we request the specifications, the progress of the works and the bank guarantee on every deposit. For a villa, we also check the building licence, the plot boundaries in the land registry and the access to the beach.
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 Lubina The Villas through Privé.

Our honest verdict on Lubina The Villas
Strengths
- New villa with private pool and garden, close to the sea in Mijas Costa.

- Completion planned in 2 months, in December 2026.
- Small development of seven villas, with plenty of privacy and limited community fees.
- Two-car garage and main suite with freestanding bath.
Points to consider
- Beach 100 metres away according to the developer, but our walking route takes 28 minutes; walk it yourself.
- Only 60 m² of terrace, not much for a 344 m² villa.
- Three levels including a basement: less suitable if you have limited mobility.
- Supermarket a 33-minute walk away, so you need the car every day.

Who is Lubina The Villas right for?
Lubina The Villas is aimed at families and buyers who want a proper villa with garden and pool, close to the sea and in a quiet residential area, without ending up paying Marbella prices.
