Nestled in

Benahavís

, this refined three‑bedroom apartment at Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club represents a clear example of the kind of inventory Luxxo Homes sources for international buyers: well‑located, ready to move into, and presented with the clarity a cross‑border purchaser needs.

Discovering the apartment in the hills of Benahavís

Spanning 103 square metres of internal living space with a 31 sqm terrace (134 sqm plot total), this three‑bed, two‑bath apartment is offered furnished at EUR 849,000. As shown in the photos, the living area opens onto the terrace, letting Andalusian light flood the rooms and framing views across the surrounding green hills.

Practical comforts are all present: air conditioning throughout, lift access, and a private garage. The development includes a communal swimming pool — a small but important lifestyle amenity for buyers seeking a low‑maintenance coastal foothold. The images capture the material finish and layout succinctly, which matters when you’re buying from abroad.

What this property says about Luxxo Homes’ selection process

This apartment is a useful case study in how Luxxo Homes positions assets for international buyers. Based in Marbella, the agency specialises in luxury and vacation homes and tends to prioritise easy‑to‑manage properties: turnkey presentation, clear serviceable amenities, and good access to transport and local services. The listing photos and the furnished presentation indicate an active effort to reduce friction for buyers who cannot inspect in person.

How Luxxo Homes adds value for overseas buyers

They prepare listings with full interior photography and practical details, which helps remote buyers judge light, layout and finishes from images; the photos for this apartment, for example, clearly show the terrace relationship to the living room and the garage access.

They focus on properties with straightforward running costs and common amenities (pool, lift, garage) — attributes that make renting or using the property as a seasonal base simpler.

They provide local market context from Marbella and Benahavís, helping buyers understand where the property sits in the local pricing ladder and lifestyle map.

Credibility & records — what to check before you buy

We always recommend treating a single listing as one data point. For agencies like Luxxo Homes you should verify a few concrete items before committing: company registration and proof of agency status in Málaga, examples of recent sales and client references, a sample reservation and purchase process that shows when deposits are taken and how funds are held, and transparent fee schedules. Luxxo Homes lists its Marbella office and website, which is a baseline — but ask for documented sales examples and clear references from international clients.

A frank note on ratings: agencies vary in how they report activity and success. Treat any single numerical rating as a prompt to dig deeper — ask for evidence of completed transactions, not just live listings. For this apartment, request the last building community accounts and confirmation that the garage and terrace areas are correctly registered in the title deeds.

Benahavís context: why international buyers look here

Benahavís sits above the coast with a quieter village character than nearby Marbella. It attracts buyers who want quick access to golf, restaurants and the Costa del Sol’s beaches while preferring a more residential, leafy setting. The market here tends to favour well‑maintained developments close to golf clubs, which keeps this apartment’s location — Los Arqueros Golf & Country Club — relevant for seasonal or long‑term use.

From an investment perspective, properties that combine easy upkeep (apartment with communal services), parking and outdoor space are easier to let and manage. The terrace and communal pool make the flat attractive to holiday renters; the garage and lift make it practical for older buyers or families down‑sizing.

Inspecting remotely — practical advice for international buyers

If you can’t travel immediately, ask the agent for a short walk‑through video that shows the route from the parking to the lift, the terrace sightlines, and key service areas (electric meter, hot water unit). For this apartment, request close‑ups of the terrace threshold, bathroom finishes and the garage door mechanism — these are small defects that often surprise overseas buyers but are simple to fix if identified early.

Documents to request

Title deeds (escritura) showing the terrace and garage registration

Recent community (comunidad) accounts and a record of any pending works

Energy performance certificate and a maintenance history for the building

Why this apartment works for many international buyers

Property image 7

The combination of a practical floorplan, outdoor space, storage and a pool makes the unit straightforward to use as a holiday home or a primary residence. The furnished presentation and clear photography reduce the guesswork of buying from abroad — and that’s precisely where a local agency’s diligence becomes valuable.

As shown in the images, the terrace becomes an extension of the living area; for many buyers the ability to eat outside for most of the year is worth a premium on the Costa del Sol.

Final thoughts and next steps

If this style of property fits your brief, ask Luxxo Homes for a documented sales history for similar apartments in Los Arqueros, a recent building inspection, and references from international buyers they have worked with. Treat the listing photos and furnished staging as an invitation to ask very specific, practical questions — then verify them with paperwork.

Contact Luxxo Homes in Marbella via their website to request a video walkthrough, title deeds, and community accounts. We’re happy to help you evaluate the documents if you’d like a second opinion before you proceed.
