Positioned between Malaga and Marbella’s finest

Carat Phase 3 sits at the heart of Reserva del Higuerón - one of the Costa del Sol’s most celebrated residential communities. Placed between Malaga and Marbella, two of the most desirable cities on the coast, and just 10 minutes from Malaga International Airport, this is a location that works as well for full-time living as it does for those seeking a smart investment property.

157 homes designed to frame the views

The 157 apartments are arranged across 4 blocks in 2 and 3-bedroom configurations, with every layout decision made to protect and maximise the views. The two East-facing blocks are staggered so no residence overlooks another, while the South-facing blocks are designed to capture light and warmth year-round. From the entrance pathway to each individual living space, the attention to detail gives this project a distinctiveness that truly sets it apart.

A community built around how you actually want to live

Reserva del Higuerón is known for its exceptional quality of life, and Carat Phase 3 is no exception. Scenic routes connect the phases through carefully maintained green areas, leading to an entire floor of communal spaces: co-working area, pilates room, gym, sauna, Turkish bath, massage room, a heated pool with 110m² of water surface, a bar with outdoor terrace, and a dedicated solarium. This is resort living made permanent.

What is Reserva del Higuerón?

It is one of the Costa del Sol's most acclaimed gated communities, built around a five-star hotel, beach club and world-class facilities. Carat Phase 3 places you inside this community - one of the finest living environments anywhere on the coast.

What are the differences between the 2 and 3-bedroom apartments?

Both configurations share the same attention to views and quality, but differ in layout and total living area. I can walk you through the floor plans for each to help you find the right match for your lifestyle and budget.

Is Carat Phase 3 well suited for rental investment?

Extremely well suited. Reserva del Higuerón commands premium rental rates and the location between Malaga and Marbella drives strong demand year-round. This is one of the most sought-after addresses for luxury short-term rentals on the Costa del Sol.

How close is the development to the beach?

The beach is easily accessible and the community's own beach club and pools mean you are never far from the sea - whether you walk down or enjoy the resort facilities right on your doorstep.

Can I arrange a personal viewing with you?

Yes, and I always recommend it. I personally accompany all my clients to viewings, drawing on 20+ years of experience to ensure you see everything that matters and can make a fully informed decision with complete confidence.
