Hans Beeckman review
STELLA 8 is the development I am considering for new-build apartments within walking distance of the beach and within walking distance of shops and restaurants in Benalmádena Costa, Benalmádena.
At STELLA 8, I would first compare the two middle-floor apartments with the two duplex penthouses. Use the plans to check how the rooms and terraces fit your daily routine; terrace area alone does not show how much circulation space remains around furniture.
Prices range from €680,000 to €810,000, at €5,457 per built m². The apartments offer 130.00–143.30 m² of built area, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 25.40–68.60 m² of terrace space.
For this comparison, I use €4,663 per weighted m² for the project. For an after-work walk or a fresh start on a day off, the coast is close by. Here, you do not need to reserve the sea for weekends; Playa Las Viborillas is 12 min on foot and 2 min by car. 15% below €5,482 per weighted m² in Benalmádena is not a judgement in itself. It simply means the unit choice, location and finish deserve extra attention. The comparison group comes from the historical snapshot dated September 22, 2026 and has not been checked again; this is not a valuation.
A confirmed completion date is not available in the checked project data. Ask for the current schedule for the specific home.

Project analysis
STELLA 8 presents new-build apartments within walking distance of the beach, shops and restaurants in Benalmádena Costa, Benalmádena. The project includes apartments, middle-floor apartments and duplex penthouses, with east or west orientations depending on the home.
The available home types are apartments, middle-floor apartments and penthouse duplexes. This offers a choice between a conventional apartment layout and the more vertically arranged accommodation of a duplex penthouse, while retaining the same three-bedroom, two-bathroom format across the listed homes.
East and west orientations create different rhythms through the day: an east-facing home may suit those who value morning light, while a west-facing setting may appeal to buyers who enjoy the later part of the day on the terrace.
Sea views are included within the project information, adding a coastal dimension to the residential setting. Buyers should nevertheless consider the individual home, floor level and orientation carefully, as the precise outlook and the amount of direct light can differ from one residence to another.
A considered coastal daily rhythm
Life here can begin simply: everyday shopping is close by, with Bazar La Caleta around a two-minute walk and Mercadona around one minute on foot. That proximity can make an ordinary morning feel less dependent on the car.
The terrace sizes allow the outdoor area to become more than an occasional extra. Whether used for breakfast in the east-facing light, a quiet reading corner or a later gathering in a west-facing home, the space gives daily routines room to extend outdoors.
For a change of pace, Playa Las Viborillas is within walking distance, while restaurants including Restaurante Yin Teppan Yaki, Taverna Valentino and The Indian Chef are also nearby. It is a setting that supports both a home-focused routine and easy local outings.
The trade-off is worth understanding: the beach is walkable rather than directly outside the door, and the route, access point and personal walking pace will shape how it feels in practice. For many buyers, that distance may provide a useful balance between residential calm and coastal access.
Space inside, room to live outside
This relationship between internal and external space is a defining feature of STELLA 8, particularly for buyers who want a more expansive home than a compact holiday apartment.
Project visualisations show modern white façades, glass balustrades, pergolas and landscaped elements, alongside bright interiors with open-plan living and dining areas. These images communicate the intended design character; buyers should confirm the specifications of their chosen residence.

Frequently asked questions
What distinguishes STELLA 8?
STELLA 8 offers new-build apartments within walking distance of the beach, shops and restaurants in Benalmádena Costa, Benalmádena. Available home types range from single-level apartments to duplex penthouses, and parking and security are confirmed.
How many homes are still available at STELLA 8?
According to the price list of 23 September 2026, 4 homes are available at STELLA 8, with prices from €680,000 to €810,000.
Is the beach within walking distance?
Playa Las Viborillas: 783 m · 12 min walk; 719 m · 2 min drive. Routes from the project marker, checked with Google Routes on September 27, 2026. This is the shortest measured driving route to the beaches shown here. Travel times are indicative and may vary.
What comes on top of the purchase price?
For an illustrative budget for a first delivery of a new home in Andalusia, allow 10% VAT (IVA), 1.2% stamp duty (AJD), approximately 1% for notary and registration costs and approximately 1% for legal assistance: 13.2% of the purchase price in this example. The two 1% allowances are estimates, not statutory fees. The applicable taxes, taxable bases, reliefs and actual fees depend on the transaction; obtain individual advice and quotations.
What payment terms does Resales Online list?
The payment terms in Resales Online list: reservation: €10,000.
The Payment notes distinguish residency status. Residents: 15% at contract less the reservation, a further 15% in 20 monthly instalments and a remaining 70%. Non-residents: 20% at contract less the reservation, a further 20% in 2 payments and a remaining 60%. The notes do not specify when the remaining 70% or 60% is due.
Can I get a Spanish mortgage as a non-resident?
Yes. Spanish banks do grant mortgages to non-residents, usually at a lower percentage of the purchase price than for residents and with conditions that vary by bank. The result depends on your income, tax residence and the bank's assessment. We can connect you with mortgage advisers who work with non-resident buyers.
What will the community fees cost?
Before reserving, ask about the community fees for the specific property: do they apply, what is the amount per month or per year, and which services are included? Also have it confirmed whether any additional contributions are planned. Request a current written statement or, if the amount is not yet final, a substantiated estimate. Do not rely solely on the project presentation.
Why buy through an agent with an API licence?

Our project data comes directly from Resales Online, the shared database used by Costa del Sol real-estate agents. You pay the same price with us as directly with the developer.
