Villa in Benahavis, El Madronal

Contemporary Architecture in One of the Coast’s Most Private Communities

Set within the gated community of El Madroñal, Villa Cambara is a contemporary villa with panoramic views towards the Mediterranean and the surrounding hills.

With approximately 560 m² of built space distributed across multiple levels, the home has been designed around light, openness, and the connection between indoor and outdoor living. Floor-to-ceiling glass draws natural light through the interiors while framing the landscape from nearly every room. The layout creates a natural balance between social spaces and more private areas, giving the home both presence and practicality.

The main living level brings together the kitchen, dining area, and lounge in one open space that extends directly onto the principal terrace and infinity pool. Large sliding doors soften the boundary between inside and out, creating an atmosphere shaped by light, views, and continuity throughout the day. Optional outdoor kitchen and dining areas further extend the living space outdoors.

The villa offers five en-suite bedrooms, along with a family lounge, media room, gym with bathroom, guest toilet, and a garage with space for four vehicles. A private lift connects all floors, including the rooftop solarium where a chill-out area and fire pit overlook the coastline, mountains, and surrounding nature.

Designed by internationally recognised architect Arthur Casas, the residence combines a strong contemporary identity with a warm and highly functional living environment.

El Madroñal is known for its large plots, mature pine and cork oak trees, and discreet low-density setting with 24-hour security. Despite its peaceful hillside location, Marbella, Benahavís, golf courses, beaches, and international schools remain within easy reach.

Villa Cambara combines privacy, scale, and carefully considered design in one of the most sought-after residential areas on the coast.
