Branded residences Golden Mile, Marbella

Design Hills Marbella

Designed byDolce&Gabbana

Residences designed with Dolce&Gabbana on the Golden Mile of Marbella: five blocks, marble and majolica, and a private club above Puente Romano.

The Hills

Italian craft, above the Golden Mile

Design Hills Marbella is designed by Dolce&Gabbana in collaboration with Sierra Blanca Estates. It is meant as an enclave of homes and hospitality built around the art of living well, and it takes its direction from the Italian craft the fashion house is known for, “fatto a mano”, made by hand.

The Golden Mile began in 1954, when Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe started building the Marbella Club Hotel, and it has been a destination for international visitors ever since. Design Hills adds a branded residential address to that history, on a hill above Puente Romano with views over the coast and the Mediterranean.

The concept of luxury is not static: it changes with the rhythms of society.

White

Pristine whites mark the architectural details.

Green

Interiors

Stone, majolica and Italian craft

The interiors are designed with curated furnishings by Dolce&Gabbana, with spacious open floor plans in which living, dining and kitchen flow into one another and open onto terraces and the sea. Master bedrooms have walk-in closets, and the homes include a beauty room, a service room, entertainment rooms and a private studio.

Each hue is chosen to reflect Dolce&Gabbana’s Italian heritage. In the renders that means majolica blue in the kitchens, emerald green in the living rooms and marbles from Brazil, India and Turkey in the bathrooms and the entrance halls.

FAQ

Common buyer questions

Can foreigners buy property in Spain?

Yes. There are no restrictions on non-Spanish nationals buying property in Spain, whether as a resident or non-resident.

What is an NIE number and do I need one?

An NIE (Numero de Identificacion de Extranjero) is a tax ID number required for any property purchase in Spain by a non-Spanish national. Nueva Living can guide you through obtaining one before you reserve.

What costs should I budget for on top of the purchase price?

Buyers typically budget for transfer tax or VAT, notary fees, land registry fees and legal fees on top of the purchase price. Nueva Living provides a full, current cost breakdown for your chosen residence before you reserve.

Can I get a mortgage in Spain as a non-resident?

Many Spanish banks offer mortgages to non-resident buyers, typically financing a portion of the purchase price. Exact terms depend on the bank and your personal financial profile.

What is the difference between off-plan and completed properties?

Off-plan means the development is still under construction and is usually sold with staged payments through to completion. A completed property is ready to view and move into now.

How does the reservation and payment process work?

Reservation and payment structures vary by development and are set out in full before you reserve. Nueva Living reconfirms the current schedule for your chosen residence at every step.

Can I rent out the property after purchase?

This depends on the individual development and local regulations, which can vary by community and municipality. Nueva Living will confirm the specific rules for a development before you reserve.

Do I need a lawyer?

Yes, we strongly recommend independent legal representation for any property purchase in Spain. Nueva Living can put you in touch with independent lawyers experienced in Costa del Sol property.

What is Design Hills Marbella?

A development of residences on the Golden Mile of Marbella, designed by Dolce&Gabbana in collaboration with Sierra Blanca Estates. It has five blocks named after Italian cities, and its own club with pools, restaurants, a spa and sports courts.

Who is behind the project?

Dolce&Gabbana designed the concept with Sierra Blanca Estates, which develops it. The developer named in the sales documents is Lomas del Sur, S.A., which has a limited right to use the Dolce&Gabbana names and logos. The architecture is coordinated by The One Atelier with Metrogramma, and the interiors are advised by StorageMilano.

What does it cost?

The developer’s price list of May 2026 covers nine residences in blocks 1 to 4, from EUR 4,750,000 for a three-bedroom apartment in block 4 up to EUR 17,500,000 for the five-bedroom penthouse. Prices exclude VAT, currently 10%, and stamp duty, which the price list gives as 1.5% (the rate set in Andalucía is 1.2%).

How big are the residences?

The priced residences have 173 to 421 sqm of interior built area, and 321 to 1,293 sqm of total built area. The total includes the residence’s share of the common areas, so it is larger than the interior and the terrace added together.

Are the residences furnished?

The developer says the residences are designed with curated furnishings by Dolce&Gabbana, but that furnishings are included only as far as the purchase agreement provides. We confirm what is included in each price.

When will it be finished?

The developer has not published a delivery date in the documents we hold. The development is shown in renders and depends on permits and licences, so we confirm the schedule in writing before any reservation.

What amenities are planned?

Infinity and indoor pools, a beach club, restaurants and a bar, a spa, padel and other sports courts, a children’s club, a retail drive and 24-hour security with concierge services. The developer says additional fees may apply for some amenities.

How far is it from Puerto Banús, the beach clubs and the airport?

The developer gives 1 minute to King Fahd Palace, 2 to the beach, 3 to Puente Romano, 5 to the Marbella Club and to Puerto Banús, 10 to Marbella centre and 40 to Málaga Airport.
