Fourteen building plots inside the Finca Cortesín resort in Casares, between Marbella and Sotogrande, six of them still for sale. Plots of 1,485 to 2,777 m² with up to 833 m² to build, looking over the sea, the golf course or the resort's lake.

There are two ways to buy. You can buy the plot on its own and build with the architect and builder you choose. Or you can buy it with a villa project: one of three studios' designs (Villarroel, Huete or Colubi García) adapted to your plot, or a design drawn for you, built by one of the agreed builders, with the project managed from the purchase of the plot to the keys.

The example designs run from 450 to 775 m² with four to seven bedrooms, in contemporary or Mediterranean styles. The renders on this page are those examples, not a villa that exists.

Every villa in the resort follows Finca Cortesín's rules. The resort's aesthetics committee must approve the design before the town hall licence is even requested, and checks the finished house before the building guarantee is returned.

An honest take on this development

From the developer's price list, payment plan and documents, and what I know of the area.

Key insights

Inside a gated resort of about 215 hectares with a championship golf course that hosted the 2023 Solheim Cup, a beach club, a spa of over 2,200 m² and a five-star hotel.
One architectural standard for the whole resort: no design is built without the aesthetics committee's approval, and building differently from the approved project costs a penalty of 40% of the construction budget.
Three architecture studios offer designs adapted to each plot, from 450 to 775 m² and four to seven bedrooms.
A Lanserhof preventive-medicine clinic of over 24,000 m² is due to open in the resort.

Take my advice

Budget the whole villa, not the plot: land, design, licences and build, with 21% VAT on the land. I'll put the figures side by side before you reserve.
The resort's rules shape the timeline: works must finish within 24 months of starting, with no building from mid-July to the end of August. Plan for it from the first sketch.
In my view, Finca Cortesín is one of the last places on this coast where every house follows one architectural standard, and that is what protects the value of each villa in it.
Before you visit a sales office, tell me first: I'll arrange the visit and come with you, so you have someone on your side until the keys.
