Southwest terrace and extensive communal facilities in Benahavís

A 25 m² southwest-facing terrace looks out over the communal gardens, a wooden footbridge and the surrounding mountains. This 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Parque Botánico Resort, Benahavís gives both the living room and the kitchen direct access to that outdoor space, making it the practical centre of the home during the afternoon and evening hours.

The terrace and what the community includes

Because the terrace faces southwest, it takes the afternoon sun rather than the morning light, which suits late lunches and evening use. Below the terrace, the gated community has 24-hour security and landscaped grounds planted with eucalyptus trees. Residents share five outdoor swimming pools, children's play areas, and an on-site Spanish-style bar and restaurant located a one-minute walk from the main family pool complex. For cooler months and daily exercise, the resort runs a 25-metre indoor heated pool, a gym, a Jacuzzi, a sauna, and a steam room, alongside four tennis courts, padel courts, two basketball courts, and indoor squash courts.

Inside the 105 m² built area

The flat has a 105 m² built area arranged around a living room with a fireplace and an independent equipped kitchen. For buyers who prefer a single room for cooking and sitting, the dividing wall can be removed to create an open-plan layout, though keeping the kitchen separate contains cooking noise and smells. Both bedrooms have fitted wardrobes; the main bedroom has an en-suite bathroom while the second bathroom serves the guest room and visitors. Hot and cold air conditioning and electrical window shutters are installed, the latter being useful for locking up securely or keeping bedrooms dark.

Parking, storage and rules for short-term lets

A private underground parking space and a storage room are included in the sale, with additional free communal parking inside the gates for guests. The storage room takes the suitcases, golf clubs and beach gear that would otherwise fill the bedroom wardrobes. This 2 bedroom middle floor apartment in Parque Botánico Resort, Benahavís is well suited for personal use or holiday stays.
