Malaga, Spain (PressExposure) March 13, 2010 -- The La Zagaleta Country club has always had wealthy, high profile owners. From Henry Roussell, the French pharmaceutical tycoon, who went on to become the Father in law of the late Cristina Onassis, to Adnan Khashoggi, one time worlds richest man. The sprawling 2200 acre estate is set in beautiful Andalucian countryside, close to Marbella and the famous Puerto Banus marina. Mr. Khashoggi used to have his boat, Nabila moored at Banus and would frequently take a helicopter up to his estate after a days partying.

The development was acquired in the late eighties by its current owners and they set about creating its current concept, to build a unique and exclusive residential estate that offered its residents privacy, security and above all, luxury. They were very careful to limit the number of possible homes and their generousity to the environment was a contributing factor to them receiving the Ford award for conservation of nature.

Fast forward to the present day and the development now has a total of 245 constructed houses, out of a possible total of 410. There are two world championship golf courses, the latest of which, Los Barrancos was completed in 2007 at an approximate cost of €20,000,000. Mr Khashoggis´residence still stands as the La Zagaleta Clubhouse with over 5100m2 of space. The owners are some of the most successful business people in the world and also some huge celebrity names call the estate their home.

Mark Goodwin, owner of First Property Choice commented, "the estate offers a totally unique proposition to its owners, security, total privacy and absolute luxury." He continues, " this blend of attributes cannot be found elsewhere." He also comments on the low level of build density, "no other estates have considered the owners quite as much as La Zagaleta, they could have squeezed many more properties in to maximize profits, instead each house enjoys its own space and the privacy that goes along with it." He finishes, "for people who want to enjoy nature, golf and truly exclusive real estate, there are no better places to live."

The estate gained further notoriety recently through a documentary aired on ITV featuring Piers Morgan, who dubbed the estate "Butlins for Billionaires." He flew across the development in a helicopter and also interviewed a couple who owned there. This has opened up a whole new rush of interest and the popularity will continue to grow now people realize just how special La Zagaleta is.
