Naya Residences — New Development in Atalaya, Estepona

Naya Residences occupies a precise point on the Costa del Sol map that most new developments can’t claim: the boundary between Estepona and Marbella, in the Atalaya area, where two municipalities meet without either dominating the address. Puerto Banús is five minutes by car. The nearest Mediterranean beach is just over a kilometre on foot. Three golf courses — Atalaya Golf & Country Club, Real Club de Golf Guadalmina, and El Paraíso Golf Club — are within immediate reach. This isn’t proximity described for marketing purposes; it’s the actual layout of the neighbourhood.

The development comprises 88 units across ground-floor apartments, standard apartments, duplex configurations, and penthouses — all oriented south and west. That orientation is the structural logic of the project: afternoon light enters the open-plan living areas through floor-to-ceiling glazing and lands on covered terraces that extend the interior outward. The architecture, by HCP Arquitectos, doesn’t compete with the landscape — it positions itself within it. The result is a building that reads as settled rather than arrived.

The communal infrastructure at Naya Residences is more complete than the segment typically delivers. The wellness offer includes a heated indoor pool, spa, sauna, and fully equipped gym. There is also a coworking area — a practical addition that reflects how the buyer profile for a development like this actually uses their home. Landscaped gardens run between the residential blocks; penthouses have rooftop solariums. None of this is incidental — the communal programme is part of what makes year-round living here function rather than just feel attractive.

Each apartment runs on an aerothermal energy system supported by solar panels, with underfloor heating throughout. The running cost differential versus a conventionally heated building is real and measurable — a consideration that matters both for primary residents and for buyers evaluating the short-term rental numbers, given how well the location serves that market. Underground parking with EV charging infrastructure is included.

Málaga Airport is 50 minutes by motorway. International schools nearby include Laude San Pedro International College and Colegio Atalaya. The development is gated, with landscaped gardens forming the connective tissue between blocks.

Naya Residences is currently under construction. Prices run from €668,000 to €1,390,000 across the 2 and 3-bedroom units and penthouses.
