Located right between Fuengirola and Benalmádena, Higuerón Resort has established itself as one of the most extensive and well-maintained aquatic destinations on the Costa del Sol.
Far from viewing the swimming pool as merely an added bonus, the resort builds much of its experience around water, with spaces designed to cater to different ways of travelling, relaxing and enjoying the Mediterranean climate.
The resort features 14 swimming pools, six of which are private, spread across residential zones, communal areas, sports facilities, wellness centres and the beach. Each serves a clear purpose: privacy, socialising, physical recovery or well-being, blending naturally into the architecture and landscape surrounding the complex.
Villas with private pools: privacy and views of the Mediterranean
The Leiro Residences, the collection of villas at Higuerón Resort, represent the most exclusive option within the complex. Each features a private infinity pool facing the sea, designed for stays that prioritise tranquillity, independence and a direct connection with the surroundings. Spacious areas, open terraces and unobstructed views make these pools the focal point of daily life during your stay.
Adding to this experience are the resort’s penthouses, which feature private jacuzzis on their terraces, relaxation areas with Balinese beds and panoramic views over Fuengirola Bay. An offering that combines the privacy of a home with the services and amenities of a five-star resort.
Communal pools: from social gatherings to quiet relaxation
Among the communal areas, the Infinity Rooftop has established itself as one of the resort’s most recognisable spaces. Its elevated position and orientation towards the Mediterranean make it a central hub during the summer months, particularly at sunset, when the atmosphere comes alive with music and a cocktail service, whilst retaining its elegant and relaxed character.
More secluded and designed for a leisurely rest, the MED Pool is set within a setting of Mediterranean gardens featuring aromatic vegetation and shaded areas. Its proximity to the MED restaurant allows guests to extend their day between the pool and the dining table, with views of the mountains surrounding Fuengirola and Benalmádena.
Water, sport and wellness
Water also plays a special role within the resort’s sports offering. At the Higuerón Sport Club, the Lago Pool, with its organic design and serene atmosphere, is conceived as the ideal space for recovery after training sessions or guided activities. The offering is complemented by a fully equipped gym, padel and tennis courts, and a varied sports programme.
The tour concludes at the Higuerón Resort Spa, a space dedicated to wellbeing that combines a 25-metre heated indoor pool, a hydromassage pool, a hydrotherapy area, a sauna and steam rooms. The addition of an ice pool reinforces its focus on body care and recovery, aligning with current trends in wellness and sport.
The sea as a natural extension
Right on the beach, The Beach Club Higuerón extends the aquatic experience beyond the resort. This space combines Balinese beds, dining options and background music, with direct access to the sea and the option to hire boats to explore the coast.
With this variety of pools and water-themed spaces, Higuerón Resort offers a Mediterranean approach to relaxation: privacy when you want to unwind, social settings when you fancy sharing, and wellness spaces to balance body and mind. An approach that makes water the central theme of the experience, transcending trends and seasons.
