Ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís are the municipality's affordable end, and it is worth knowing how far from the headline it sits. Counted from our listings on 14 October 2026, ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís run at a median of 4,725 € per square metre across 50 comparable listings — against 6,780 € for the villas that give this municipality its reputation.

Asking prices run from about 145,000 euros to 1.95 million, the average is close to 690,000, and the typical unit is around 144 square metres with two or three bedrooms — the same size as the Marbella average, at a markedly lower rate.
Why buy ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís?
Three reasons to buy ground floor apartments in Benahavís for sale, and they differ from the coastal ones.
A garden terrace instead of a balcony
A middle-floor balcony is a place to stand; a ground floor terrace opening onto the communal gardens is a place to eat and to live. In a valley where the outdoor months outnumber the indoor ones, that changes how the flat is used rather than how it looks.
The Benahavís address at an apartment price
The municipality is known for villas on ridges and gated estates. Ground floor apartments in Benahavís for sale put you in the same valley, with the same view up to those ridges, for a fraction of the money.
Golf on the doorstep, not a drive away
Los Arqueros, La Quinta and El Higueral are the reason the valley was developed. Most of these apartments are minutes from a course and many back onto one, which also means the gardens in front of your terrace belong to the scheme rather than to a neighbour's wall.
Where the ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís are
Our data records the whole municipality under one location, so the filter above does not split by urbanisation. In practice they sit in three places.
The golf valley: where ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís are
The overwhelming majority of Benahavís ground floor apartments for sale. Schemes from the nineties onwards with mature gardens, pools and in several cases a gate. This is where the supply is and where it will stay.
The coastal side of the municipality
Benahavís reaches down to the sea between Marbella and Estepona, which is why a few addresses that feel coastal are administratively here. What is listed there is priced closer to the coast than to the village.
Around the village
A handful sit near the old village at the head of the gorge, within reach of the restaurants, the school and the health centre. Supply is thin and comes up rarely.
Factors to consider with ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís
With ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís, three things matter more than at sea level. Aspect on a slope: the valley puts some blocks into shadow earlier than a coastal position would, so a south or south-west terrace is worth more than the same terrace in Estepona. Damp, particularly where a terrace sits below garden level on sloping ground. And what the garden actually is — private property, private-use communal land, or communal garden beside your terrace, three things that look identical in a photograph.
Legalities and ownership costs
Have a lawyer check the registry entry against what you were shown, especially any closed terrace, and whether the parking space is deeded or allocated. Then budget IBI, rubbish, community fee, insurance and non-resident income tax if this is not your main home.
Potential for rental income
Golf fills spring and autumn here rather than only August, which suits a garden apartment. A tourist licence is required, and several Benahavís communities restrict short lets — read the statutes before you count on the income.
Tips for finding ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís
With a few dozen ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís listed at any time, this is a segment where waiting for the right aspect pays better than taking the first one with the right price.
Work with a local agent like us
We list from the shared Resales network, so the same apartment appears here as elsewhere; the difference is the advice. Ask what the community fee covers — in Benahavís it sometimes includes private roads — and what the statutes allow.
Visit in the afternoon
Light in a valley changes faster than on the coast. A terrace that is perfect at noon can be in shade by four, and that is the hour you would actually use it.
Compare Benahavís with Marbella and Estepona
In Marbella the same type runs at 5,946 € per square metre — well above Benahavís, for the beach and the address. In Estepona it runs at 4,537 €, in a town that works year-round and has a beach to walk to. If golf and quiet are the point, Benahavís gives you more apartment for the money. And if nothing fits today, our property alarm mails you when it does. For the whole municipality see apartments in Benahavís or our Benahavís page.
Answers about ground floor apartments in Benahavís
What do ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís cost?
From 145,000 euros to 2,000,000, with the middle of the list at 640,000 for 146 square metres built and some 118 square metres of garden — the largest average floor area of any ground floor list we keep, and more garden than the coast gives. 54 are with us at a time, 4 of them new build. The figures per square metre in the table on this page are counted fresh each morning; on the coast, compare Marbella. Every one of the ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís we hold today is in the list above, with its garden or terrace listed separately from the built area.
On a hillside, is the ground floor the worse floor?
Not here, and that is the difference from the coast. On sloping ground a lower flat can have the open view and the upper one the hillside behind it, so the usual order does not hold — which is why the split in Benahavís is almost even: 54 ground floors against 63 middle floors. Look at the actual outlook, not at the storey. The floor above is middle floor apartments in Benahavís.
Where are the ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís?
Fifty of the fifty-four in and around the village and its golf urbanisations, two in La Quinta, the rest towards Montemayor and El Paraíso. Fifty of them sit in a scheme with a pool. There is no beach: the municipality starts seven kilometres inland, and the sea is a ten-to-twenty-minute drive. If that is the wrong trade, the same floor on the sand is under apartments in Casares Playa.
What should I check before buying ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís?
The quota first. A golf urbanisation on a hillside maintains gardens, pools, lifts, security and often its own roads, and that bill does not shrink in winter — ask for the reserve fund and the minutes of the last two general meetings. Then whether the garden is private property or common ground with a right of use. Then the drainage above and below the terrace, because water runs downhill and the lowest flat finds out first. Our agents on the ground will pull the papers. That goes for every one of the ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís we show.
What comes on top of the asking price of ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís?
On ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavís, between 10 and 13 per cent for transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees, reckoned on the price you agree. Then quota, IBI, insurance and a car. Against that stands the floor area: 146 square metres on average, where the coastal list gives 129 for a comparable price. Everything in the municipality is on property for sale in Benahavís; if nothing fits yet, our property alarm will mail you when it does.

The table compares the municipalities rather than the districts, because Benahavís is recorded as one location and a district table would have a single row.
Budget
Add 10 to 13 per cent for transfer tax, notary, registry and legal fees. On a 690,000-euro apartment that is 69,000 to 90,000 euros.
Size and layout
Around 144 square metres built with two or three bedrooms. The figure includes the covered terrace and often a storeroom, so the interior is typically closer to 110. Ask for the distribution and measure the terrace rather than trusting a wide-angle photograph.
Community fees and running costs
Fees are shared by participation quota, so a ground floor unit pays the same as the flat above it. In this municipality the quota varies more than on the coast, because some urbanisations maintain private roads. Ask for the quota and the minutes of the last two meetings.
| Area | Typical | Range | Listings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nueva Andalucía | 6,170 € | 5,000 – 8,242 € | 406 |
| Marbella | 6,000 € | 4,417 – 7,851 € | 419 |
| Benahavís | 4,957 € | 3,750 – 6,214 € | 161 |
| Estepona | 4,775 € | 3,860 – 6,031 € | 750 |
| San Pedro de Alcántara | 4,667 € | 3,850 – 6,087 € | 102 |
| Casares | 3,876 € | 3,053 – 5,046 € | 121 |
| Manilva | 3,367 € | 2,793 – 4,119 € | 68 |
