Branded residences are becoming increasingly popular in Spain's luxury real estate market. These developments, associated with prestigious brands, offer unique designs and exclusive services. This article explores the cities where these projects are emerging and highlights the latest and most impressive developments, as compiled by the valuation company Tecnitasa.

Malaga and Madrid, market leaders

As a luxury-related phenomenon, branded residences stand out for their prime location. In Spain, these projects have found their place in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga and the Canary Islands. Currently, Marbella and Madrid are the two leading places in this segment. Marbella, an established luxury destination on the Costa del Sol, has 12 branded residence projects underway.

Meanwhile, Madrid is gaining ground as one of the most sought-after international luxury destinations, especially by Latin American investors. Renowned hotel chains such as Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental and Ennismore already have projects in the capital, underlining Madrid's continued growth in this market.

Product types

There are two main types of branded residences: those affiliated with hotel chains and those linked to other luxury brands. The former are more prevalent and are managed by hotel chains, offering five-star services such as security, in-house restaurants, spas, concierge, laundry, and room cleaning. Notable examples include Four Seasons, Hilton, Marriott, and Accor.

In this model, owners typically use the residences part-time, while the hotel chain manages the property the rest of the year. The second type involves partnerships with non-hotel luxury brands. Fashion labels such as Fendi, Dolce&Gabbana, Karl Lagerfeld and Bvlgari, as well as luxury car brands like Lamborghini, Porsche and Bentley, are also entering this market.
