Behind the project

Nacaré Residences is developed, promoted and project‑managed by Black Horse Partners, a private real‑estate investment platform specialising in high‑end residential schemes in prime locations such as the Costa Brava, Andorra and the Costa del Sol. The Estepona project represents an investment of about €60 million with expected sales of around €78 million, reflecting an institutional‑grade commitment to quality and long‑term value.
The architecture is attributed to Maíz y Díaz, a studio noted in sector publications as the designer of Nacaré Residences on the Costa del Sol. Their approach emphasises clean geometric lines, sculptural façades and the use of natural materials to integrate the building into its coastal landscape while maximising light and views. Interior design is led by Pedro Peña Design, a renowned studio that has created hotel‑suite‑inspired layouts with curated materials, textures and finishes, while the landscaping is conceived to generate a lush, resort‑style environment throughout the grounds.

Points of Interest in the Area

For most residents, access will be in 1–3 minutes on foot, effectively making this a beachfront lifestyle address.
Senda Litoral de Estepona (Coastal Path) – Walking & cycling route
The coastal path runs parallel to the shoreline and can be accessed within minutes from Avenida del Litoral, providing kilometres of seafront boardwalk ideal for running, cycling and sunset walks. Reviews highlight the variety of viewpoints and the easy access to small coves, parks and chiringuitos along the way.

Approximately 10–15 minutes’ walk, the old town offers flower‑lined streets, traditional plazas, boutique shops and numerous tapas bars and restaurants, often cited as one of the most beautiful historic centres on the Costa del Sol.
