Caledonian, a developer with a strong presence in Spain's luxury segment, has launched its most ambitious project: St. Regis, The Residences, Casares - Costa del Sol. Set to open in 2026, this initiative marks a significant milestone as the first independent residences under the St. Regis brand in Europe and the first in Spain, following an agreement between Caledonian and Marriott International. The developer is investing €150 million, according to idealista/news.
This exclusive development, located in Finca Cortesin on the scenic Costa del Sol, stands out for its unmatched luxury offering. Featuring 46 residences designed by renowned architect Marcio Kogan of Studio MK27, the project redefines the concept of premium living. The homes offer panoramic views of the Mediterranean, exceptional finishes and cutting-edge technology, including biometric access systems and state-of-the-art heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) installations.
Caledonian and Marriott International, the world leader in branded residences, have joined forces to offer an unparalleled lifestyle through this project. In addition to its distinctive architecture, the residences will provide owners with access to St. Regis' signature services, including its renowned butler service. This personalised service caters to everything from everyday needs to unique experiences, reinforcing the promise of a luxurious and exclusive lifestyle.
Innovation and sustainability as fundamental pillars
Caledonian’s commitment to sustainability is a key feature of this project. The residences are designed to the highest environmental standards, incorporating materials such as solid wood to reduce solar radiation and photovoltaic energy systems. Additionally, state-of-the-art home automation will enable efficient energy use, optimising comfort for residents while minimising the carbon footprint.
The development’s communal areas are equally focused on luxury and comfort. Residents will have access to spa services, heated pools, a gym, yoga and pilates rooms, as well as leisure spaces including a cinema, library and wine bar. All of these amenities are part of the exceptional living experience that Caledonian and St. Regis have created for a discerning clientele.
Spain's expanding luxury market
Prices for the residences range from €2.4 million to €6.5 million, offering a variety of options from two-bedroom homes to penthouses and ground-floor apartments with private pools. The homes range in size from 270 to 590 square metres, including terraces and gardens. The first units are set to be ready for their owners in 2026, with construction of the first phase already underway.
Jaidev Menezes, Regional Vice President of Mixed-Use Development at Marriott International, highlighted the significance of the project: “This year we celebrate 120 years of St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, and this residential project in Spain marks a special moment for the brand. We are proud to collaborate with Caledonian, which is renowned for its commitment to quality and luxury.”

The launch of St. Regis, The Residences, Casares - Costa del Sol represents a decisive move towards expanding the luxury residential market in Spain.
