Brightbay is a new-build collection of villas in La Herradura, the bay on the western edge of Almuñécar on the Costa Tropical. Playa de los Berengueles is roughly 200 metres from the complex, and from the terraces you look out over sea, sand and the mountains that rise steeply behind this stretch of coast. If the water is the reason you are buying, the car can largely stay parked.

The project
Brightbay is a gated group of villas on the La Herradura seafront. The homes face east, so the morning sun reaches the terraces, and they look across the bay of Marina del Este, the beach and the surrounding hills. Inside, the emphasis is on volume and daylight: three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, a fourth bathroom, a double-height living room and glazing running from floor to ceiling. The kitchen comes fully fitted and opens onto the lounge, and the suites have terraces with a jacuzzi.
Read the full description
Outside, each villa has a private pool, a covered terrace, a solarium and its own garden of 50 to 210 m². Terrace space per home ranges from about 234 to 446 m², far more than most coastal properties offer. Communal landscaped areas surround the villas as well. Below ground there is a basement, there is a storage room, and you park in a private space.
On the technical side you get air conditioning that both cools and heats, double glazing, home automation and photovoltaic solar panels generating your own electricity. Visitors announce themselves at the entry phone, while an alarm system and security staff on duty day and night make it easier to lock up and leave the villa for weeks when you head home.
Every villa has three bedrooms and four bathrooms, with roughly 292 to 369 m² of living space. What really sets these homes apart is the outdoor space: terraces of about 234 to 446 m², a private garden of 50 to 210 m² and a pool of your own, plus a basement, a solarium and a private parking space.
The complex is gated and guarded around the clock. A food shop is around 400 metres away on foot and the centre of La Herradura about 1.5 km. Los Moriscos Club de Golf lies some 14.5 km off. For flights, Granada airport is about 52 km away and Málaga about 69 km, both measured as straight-line distances on the map.
Who is it for? Brightbay suits buyers who want the beach a short stroll away and plan to spend most of the day outdoors: couples or families after three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, a private pool and terraces big enough for long lunches and sunbathing. It also works well as a second home, as the complex is gated with round-the-clock security. One point to weigh up: the closest airport, Granada, is about 52 km away and Málaga around 69 km, so allow for a proper drive after each flight.
Sales: 0% of the homes are reserved or sold since we started following Brightbay (21 October 2026).
