Smart home installation in Marbella villas from €2,500: lighting, climate, pool, blinds and solar in one app, also from abroad. 700+ installations on the Costa del Sol, rated 4.8★ on Google. Fixed quote within 24 hours.
Lighting, climate, blinds, pool, gates and your solar system controlled from one interface — and from another country. Built for owners who use the villa part of the year and want it running perfectly the moment they land.
Home automation in Marbella tends to be sold as a gadget. For a villa on the Costa del Sol it is really an energy and absence problem. Half the properties we work in are used for part of the year, and the running costs are dominated by three loads that nobody is home to manage: the pool pump, the air conditioning and, increasingly, the car. Solar Marbella builds smart home systems around those loads. Your solar inverter, battery, A/C, pool filtration and charge point are brought into one controller, and the system then decides when to run what — filtration during the midday production peak, the hot water cylinder on surplus, the car charged only from what the roof produced. On top of that sits the part owners actually see day to day: lighting scenes, motorised blinds that close before the west facade heats up, gate and camera access, and a single app that works the same from Marbella or from Amsterdam. We work with open standards — KNX for new-build and full reforms, Zigbee and Matter for retrofits, Modbus and the manufacturer APIs for inverters and heat pumps — so you are never locked into one vendor or a monthly licence. Everything is commissioned with your own accounts, documented, and handed over with training in English, Spanish or Dutch. We install across Marbella town, the Golden Mile, Puerto Banús, Nueva Andalucía, San Pedro, Elviria, Cabopino, Benahavís, La Zagaleta and Ojén.
A smart villa turns solar panels in Marbella from a savings product into a silent energy manager. On the Golden Mile and in Nueva Andalucía we automate the loads that matter — pool filtration at solar noon, the air conditioning pre-cooling before the family arrives, and the EV charger following the sun instead of the grid. Everything is visible in one app, in English, Spanish or Dutch.
Because we are also the electrician and the solar installer, scenes are wired correctly the first time — from gated-community estates in La Zagaleta to beachfront homes near Puerto Banús. Guest houses run on PowerHub ONE satellite storage, monitored from the same dashboard as the main villa.
An energy-focused starter setup — inverter, battery, pool pump and hot water on automatic solar-surplus control, with app access — typically costs €1,800–€3,500. Adding lighting scenes, motorised blinds and climate zones for a whole villa usually lands between €6,000 and €20,000 depending on the number of circuits and whether it is retrofit or full KNX during a reform.
In most cases yes. Wireless standards (Zigbee, Matter) handle lighting, sensors and climate control in a finished villa, while the energy side connects over your existing network to the inverter, battery and charge point. Wired KNX is only worth it when walls are already open — new build or a full reform.
That is what most of our clients buy it for. You get remote access to climate, pool, lighting and gates, plus alerts for leaks, power cuts and unexpected consumption. You can pre-cool the house before arrival, give the cleaner or property manager limited access, and see whether the solar system is still producing while you are away.
Almost always. We integrate the common brands on this coast — Solplanet, Huawei, SolarEdge, Enphase, Fronius and Victron — over Modbus or the manufacturer API, along with Tesla and Pylontech batteries. If your inverter is genuinely closed, we say so before quoting rather than after.
