Hans Beeckman review
THE LIST RIO REAL includes key-ready townhouses and a villa with private pools in Rio Real, Marbella.
At THE LIST RIO REAL, I would compare HOUSE 2 directly with HOUSE 10. Both have 280.67 m² of built area, a 145.80 m² terrace, four bedrooms and five bathrooms, but HOUSE 2 costs €60,000 more. That difference calls for checking the position and specifications; the areas alone do not establish better privacy or a more practical layout.
Prices range from €1,890,000 to €4,950,000, with €6,948 per built m² as the median. The offering comprises two townhouses and one detached villa, with 280.67–401.12 m² of built area, four to six bedrooms and five to eight bathrooms. Terraces measure 145.80–385.72 m². The separate garden/plot field lists 18.52–276.73 m²; confirm what that measurement includes for each home. Check the floor plan for the connections between levels and outdoor spaces.
The historical sample observed on 22 September 2026 contains 21 other new-build house projects in Marbella. The median of their project medians, each rounded to whole euros, is €6,503 per weighted m². The project's own median of €5,515 is approximately 15% lower. This is a broad comparison by municipality and property category, not a comparison of identical homes or a complete current market survey. The price list alone does not explain the difference. Available homes: 3. Resales Online marks these homes as key ready. Confirm the handover date and documentation for the selected home. This comparison group includes Verdana Villas, whose project documents give different areas from the Resales price list. This comparison is therefore also provisional.

Project analysis
THE LIST RIO REAL comprises key-ready townhouses and a villa with private pools in Rio Real, Marbella. The homes are arranged across multiple levels, and the project description specifies a private pool and sun deck on the upper floor of the townhouses.
The south-west orientation is a further practical consideration for buyers who value afternoon and evening light.
The development comprises 27 homes. The current price list includes two townhouses and one detached villa, arranged across multiple levels. Sea, mountain and panoramic views are part of the verified setting, and the multi-level design is intended to open the homes towards the Mediterranean outlook. This is not a beachfront project: Playa del Cable is 3.1 km away, approximately an 8-minute drive, and Playa del Pinillo is 3.4 km away, approximately an 8-minute drive.
Private outdoor living is a defining part of the proposition. The homes have private gardens and private pools, while the townhouse design also includes a solarium. The source description specifies a private pool and sun deck on the upper floor of the townhouses, giving the roof level a clear role for open-air living and entertaining.
The shared amenities go beyond a standard pool area. Residents have access to a large outdoor pool set within gardens, alongside a gym, sauna, Turkish bath and massage room. This combination gives the project a stronger wellness and leisure profile than developments offering only communal landscaping and a pool.
Interiors are described with large windows, spacious layouts, fitted wardrobes, en-suite bathrooms, utility rooms, domotics and high-end finishes. Every home has a subterranean garage, and the gated complex provides 24-hour security. These are meaningful practical advantages for buyers seeking a substantial Marbella base with private parking and a controlled residential environment.
Living at THE LIST RIO REAL
Daily life here is organised around generous internal volumes and substantial outdoor spaces. Large windows and roomy layouts are designed to bring natural light into the home and create a closer connection between interiors, terraces, gardens and pool areas.
The private garden, pool and solarium give each home several distinct places to spend time outdoors. For a quiet morning, family use of the garden or a more social evening on the terrace, the layout offers separation without losing the sense of a single home.
The shared garden-surrounded pool and wellness facilities add an alternative rhythm to private outdoor living. A gym, sauna, Turkish bath and massage room make the common areas relevant beyond the summer months, rather than simply an occasional poolside amenity.
The setting suits buyers who appreciate views and space while remaining connected to Marbella. It is a gated residential environment rather than a walk-to-the-sand address, a distinction worth considering when balancing privacy, outdoor scale and everyday access to the coast.
Private space, terraces and wellness facilities
Homes at THE LIST RIO REAL have covered and private terraces, solariums, private gardens and private pools.
The project combines private facilities with communal amenities: a large outdoor pool surrounded by gardens, a gym, sauna, Turkish bath and massage room. Underground private parking, with more than one space indicated, sits alongside lifts, basements, fitted wardrobes, utility rooms, en-suite bathrooms and domotics.
For the townhouses, the upper floor is described as having a private swimming pool and sundeck. The combination of multiple levels, large windows and sea, mountain and panoramic views is central to the project's indoor-outdoor design.

Marbella setting
THE LIST RIO REAL is located in Marbella, close to shops and the sea according to the project information. Its residential setting combines a gated community format with road access to practical services, dining, golf and the coastline.
For everyday provisions, Supermarket La Cuesta is 1.7 km away, approximately a 22-minute walk or a 4-minute drive. Restaurante Isabella Al Carbón is 2.9 km away, around a 6-minute drive.
The closest verified beach route among the checked destinations is to Playa del Cable, 3.1 km away and approximately an 8-minute drive. This is a coastal Marbella location, but the project should be assessed as a drive-to-the-beach address rather than a beachfront one.
Regional connections
From THE LIST RIO REAL - KEY READY, Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is approximately 51.9 km away, with a calculated driving time of about 36 minutes via the fastest computed route. Source: Google Routes, calculated from the project location on 2026-10-01, without live traffic data. Actual travel times may vary.
Beach access
Playa del Cable is 3.1 km · 8 min by car. Playa del Pinillo is 3.4 km · 8 min by car. Playa de la Bajadilla is 3.7 km · 9 min by car. Playa el Pinillo is 4.1 km · 8 min by car.
Restaurants nearby
Asador - Restaurante El Repique is 1.1 km · 16 min walking; driving alternative: 1.1 km · 3 min drive. Parrilla Restaurante Bello Horizonte is 1.7 km · 22 min walking; driving alternative: 1.7 km · 4 min drive. Bar La Esquina is 2.9 km · 7 min by car. Trocadero Arena is 4.1 km · 7 min by car.

Golf nearby
Río Real Golf Marbella is 5.7 km · 11 min by car. Santa Clara Golf Marbella is 7.0 km · 10 min by car. Higuerón Marbella Golf Resort is 7.6 km · 12 min by car. Santa Maria Golf Club Marbella is 11.7 km · 14 min by car.
Who may find this project a strong fit
In THE LIST RIO REAL is a credible match for buyers seeking a substantial Marbella home with private pool and garden space, rather than an apartment-led lifestyle.
It should also appeal to purchasers who value a ready-to-move-into property with a gated setting, 24-hour security, underground parking and a developed amenity offer. The gym, sauna, Turkish bath and massage room add relevance for owners who want wellness facilities within their community.
Buyers drawn to sea views, terraces and rooftop outdoor space should examine the individual home carefully, as views, outdoor arrangements and internal configurations can differ. The verified development setting includes sea, mountain and panoramic views, but the precise outlook of a particular residence should always be confirmed.
Those prioritising access by car to golf, Marbella services and the airport may find the position practical. Buyers whose non-negotiable requirement is to walk to the beach, restaurants or a supermarket may prefer to compare alternatives in a more immediately walkable coastal setting.
Comparing Marbella options
It is a different proposition from a compact apartment project or a development focused solely on communal leisure space.
Compared with a beach-adjacent purchase, the trade-off is clear: this project offers a gated multi-level home format and verified sea, mountain and panoramic views, while beach access is by a roughly 8-minute drive. For some buyers, the extra private space and residential privacy will outweigh immediate beach proximity; for others, a closer coastal location may be the better comparison.
Golf-focused buyers can reach Santa Clara Golf Marbella in around 11 minutes by car. Buyers who want a fully walkable daily routine should also compare projects closer to shops, restaurants and the shoreline.

How far is the beach from The List Rio Real - KEY READY?
According to the displayed routes: Playa del Cable — 3.1 km · 8 min by car. Journey times are indicative and depend on conditions.
What comes on top of the purchase price?
For new-build property in Spain, the purchase price is normally increased by VAT (IVA) on the home, stamp duty (AJD), notary and land-registry costs, and legal assistance. Together this usually comes to around 12 to 14% of the purchase price. Rates differ by autonomous region and can change; the cost simulator on this page uses the current Andalusian rates.
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.
Can I still choose finishes?
The List Rio Real - KEY READY is key ready. Ask for the specific property which finishes are included and whether changes are still possible. Have any additional costs, the execution timeframe, and the agreements confirmed in writing before you decide.
