A sunlit Benalmádena corner penthouse with large terraces, private lift and sea views—presented by JMA Prime Estate, specialists for international buyers on the Costa del Sol.

Nestled in Benalmádena, this corner penthouse represents a sunlit example of coastal living crafted for international buyers who want space, views and low‑stress access to the Mediterranean lifestyle.

This three‑bedroom, 2.5‑bath penthouse, completed in 2022, is listed at EUR 1,350,000 and sits a short walk from Carvajal Beach. As shown in the photos, large windows and corner positioning flood the living spaces with light and frame sweeping sea views — the kind of immediate emotional sell that resonates with nomads and long‑term buyers alike.
The interior usable area spans about 122 sqm, with an impressive total outdoor space (terrace plus rooftop solarium) that adds genuine living room‑scale square metres outdoors. That rooftop — shown in the gallery — becomes a natural extension for work calls at golden hour, alfresco dining, or weekend barbecues with panoramic coastline views.
Standout features you’ll care about:
- Private lift access directly into the apartment - Main terrace (42 m²) plus rooftop solarium (110 m²) - Infinity communal pool and sea‑view gym - Two parking spaces and a storage room - Furnished, air conditioning and elevator — ready to move in

Based in Fuengirola and with four years operating on the Costa del Sol, JMA Prime Estate specializes across luxury, investment and vacation homes. Their portfolio includes new‑build projects and turnkey residences — and this penthouse is exactly the product of their market focus: modern, built 2022, and positioned for buyers who want a high‑quality, low‑hassle coastal base.
For international buyers, JMA Prime Estate’s strengths matter: fluent local market navigation, in‑market vetting of finishes and community deliverables (think pool, gym and parking), and a network that streamlines viewings, legal checks and after‑sale management. Their overall score on MoveSettleGo reflects a strong performance for clients who need a reliable local partner with an international mindset.

Take the rooftop solarium and private lift access as concrete examples. JMA identified this property because these features address two repeat priorities for foreign buyers: privacy/ security and usable outdoor living. They highlight the finished quality in photos so buyers can verify materials, sightlines and sunlight — reducing the uncertainty of long‑distance decisions. The community amenities — infinity pool and sea‑view gym — were independently checked by JMA during listing preparation to ensure the product matched marketing claims.
Their service model for international clients includes virtual viewings tailored around time zones, curated local area packs (utilities, connection speeds, nearest coworking spots) and trusted legal partners to handle NIE, title checks and closing logistics. For remote workers, JMA emphasizes practical checks — broadband availability, quiet daytime noise levels and proximity to cafés and promenades — and they document these in the listing to help buyers make confident offers.

Benalmádena strikes a sweet spot on the Costa del Sol: quieter than Málaga city but better connected than many smaller resorts. This penthouse’s proximity — roughly 600 metres — to Carvajal Beach and the seafront promenade means easy daily routines: beach runs, seaside cafés, and evening seafood at local chiringuitos. Commuting to Fuengirola or Málaga is straightforward, which is useful for buyers who split time between work trips and leisure.
From an investment angle, properties with large outdoor terraces and sea views retain strong seasonal rental appeal. That said, JMA is careful to pitch this penthouse as both a lifestyle home for full‑time residents and a lock‑up‑and‑leave option for those who want low‑maintenance ownership while renting part of the year.
- Broadband speed tests and provider options - Exact community fees and what they include (pool maintenance, gym equipment, insurance) - Parking deed details for the two spaces and the storage room - Local rental regulations and expected seasonal yields - Title deeds and the built‑area vs usable‑area clarification

Browse the gallery and you’ll notice the quality finishes, the open living plan that blends indoor and outdoor space, and the uninterrupted coastal views from the rooftop — features JMA highlights to make virtual decisions easier. The photos also show furnished rooms and the community pool area, giving a clear sense of daily life here: morning swims, sunset drinks on the solarium and short walks to the promenade.
If you’re a digital nomad weighing move‑in readiness, the furnished condition, air conditioning and elevator access make this penthouse particularly attractive. JMA’s listing notes these practicalities up front — saving time for buyers who need a turnkey option.
- Confirm final asking price and any negotiable items - Request the full listing pack and community statutes - Ask for recent utility bills and broadband provider names - Schedule a virtual walkthrough timed for your time zone - Clarify timelines for keys, handover and any included furnishings

This penthouse is more than square metres and a price tag — it’s a coastal lifestyle product curated by an agency that knows the local rhythm and international buyer needs. JMA Prime Estate combines hands‑on verification of amenities with practical buyer support (virtual viewings, legal partners, after‑sale management), making them a smart choice if you’re buying from abroad or seeking a ready‑to‑live coastal base.
