A community of around 240
La Zagaleta covers roughly 900 hectares and is capped at around 420 plots, of which only part are built. Two private members-only golf courses, a riding club, a heliport and 24/7 security define the estate.
Privacy Above All
La Zagaleta
Behind a single gate in the hills above Benahavís lies one of Europe's most exclusive private estates — and one of the smallest, by design. La Zagaleta villas for sale rarely come to market, which is exactly what keeps demand so consistent among buyers who want privacy above everything else.
Architecture, slowly modernising
The original 1990s villas leant heavily Andalusian. The newer wave is contemporary — flat roofs, glass walls, infinity pools sized for views rather than swimming. Both still trade at strong prices because the address is fixed.
What ownership feels like
You enter through a controlled checkpoint, drive ten minutes through pine forest, and arrive at a plot most people will never see. Members value that distance from the coast as much as the views.
