About this property

Overview

Tiara comprises 56 three-bedroom apartments distributed across seven low-rise blocks, with only two units per floor. Each home measures between 144 and 153 square metres inside, and the terraces range from 54 to 136 square metres. Ground-floor units have private gardens and individual pools, while upper floors gain height and wider sea views. All three bedrooms are en suite, and the kitchens come fully fitted. Underfloor heating runs throughout, supplied by aerothermal systems. East and south orientations bring morning and afternoon light, and most homes look out over the coast to Gibraltar and the North African shore.

The development sits on a hillside above the AP-7 in Benahavís, where the roads climb towards the mountains and the Golf Valley opens out below. This puts you 7 minutes from Magna Marbella Golf and 8 minutes from San Pedro Alcántara, but the immediate surroundings are residential and quiet. The hillside position means views, but it also means you depend on a car. Málaga Airport is just over an hour away, and Puerto Banús marina is 12 minutes down the hill. Aloha College and local supermarkets are within 10 minutes.

The communal areas include three outdoor pools, a gym, a spa and a co-working space, all within a gated perimeter with security. The spa and gym mean you can exercise and unwind without leaving the site, which suits those who work from the co-working space or spend long stretches at the property. The shared facilities and the single-family layout make this a practical choice for full-time residents and families with school-age children, though the reliance on driving and the distance from the beach will not suit everyone.

Tiara: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa Canina Ventura del Mar is 5.2 kilometres away, which takes about 11 minutes by car. The hillside location in Benahavís means you cannot walk to the coast, so a car is essential for beach trips.

Ground-floor apartments have private pools and gardens. Upper-floor units share three communal pools set within the gated grounds. That means ground-floor owners handle their own pool maintenance, while those upstairs rely on the community fees to cover pool cleaning and upkeep.

Most homes look out over the coast towards Gibraltar and the North African shore, with some panoramic views across the Golf Valley. Ground-floor units gain garden and pool views, while upper floors trade the private outdoor space for height and wider sea views. East and south orientations deliver morning and afternoon light.

Aloha College is 4.1 kilometres away, about 10 minutes by car. The local Ambulatorio is 3 kilometres away, also a 10-minute drive, and supermarkets are within 7 minutes. San Pedro Alcántara, which has further schools and services, is 8 minutes down the hill.

Magna Marbella Golf is 7 minutes away, and the Golf Valley setting puts several other courses within a short drive. The hillside roads are quiet and green, but there are no cafés or shops you can walk to. You gain space and views at the cost of depending on the car for everything except the on-site gym and co-working space.

Buying off-plan in Benahavís means reserving a property before or during construction. You pay a reservation deposit (typically €6,000 to €12,000), then sign a private purchase contract within 30 days and pay a further 10 to 20% of the purchase price. Staged payments follow the construction milestones. The final 60 to 70% is paid at notary completion when the keys are handed over.

Under Spanish law (Law 57/1968 and its 2015 successor), all off-plan deposits must be covered by a bank guarantee or insurance policy. Your lawyer must verify this before you pay any money. If the developer fails to deliver, you can claim 100% of your deposit plus 6% annual interest. Never transfer funds without a confirmed guarantee in your name.

Spanish law mandates three tiers: a 10-year structural guarantee (Seguro Decenal) for serious structural defects, a 3-year guarantee for habitability issues (waterproofing, insulation, installations), and a 1-year guarantee on finishes and fixtures. These run from the date the licence of first occupation (licencia de primera ocupación) is issued.

New-build purchases are subject to 10% IVA (VAT) on the purchase price, plus 1.2% AJD (stamp duty) in Andalucía. Parking spaces or storage sold separately may attract 21% IVA. Add notary, land registry and legal fees (1 to 2%), budget 12 to 15% on top of the purchase price in total acquisition costs.

Most developers allow personalisation during the early construction phase, choices of floor tiles, kitchen units, bathroom fixtures, paint colours and sometimes layout tweaks. The window for changes is typically 3 to 6 months after signing the contract. Structural changes are rarely possible once work has started. Your sales representative will provide a customisation deadline and specification sheet.

Typical build time in coastal Spain is 18 to 30 months from licence grant to completion. Delays of 3 to 6 months are common due to weather, supply-chain or permit issues. Your contract should specify a longstop completion date and the compensation you are owed for any overrun. Always check whether the building licence has already been granted before reserving.

Key due-diligence points: (1) confirm the building licence is granted, not just applied for; (2) verify all deposits are bank-guaranteed in your name; (3) check the developer's track record and financial standing; (4) review the specification sheet and what is included in the price; (5) confirm the estimated completion date and longstop clause; (6) have an independent Spanish lawyer review the contract before you sign anything.

Yes, both are required before the final notary signing. You can reserve with a passport, but your Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) is needed for the private purchase contract and your Spanish bank account for the staged transfers. Your lawyer can obtain your NIE with a power of attorney in 2 to 4 weeks. Open the bank account on your first trip to Spain or remotely via certain Spanish banks.

Yes. Spanish banks lend to non-residents at typical LTVs of 60 to 70% of the lower of purchase price or valuation (vs 80% for residents). Rates are competitive with the rest of the eurozone. You will need 6 months of bank statements, tax returns and proof of income, pre-approval takes 2 to 4 weeks.

Recommended for serious buyers. A mortgage in principle confirms your budget, signals credibility to sellers and shortens completion. We can introduce you to specialist non-resident mortgage brokers familiar with the local market.

Resale property in Andalucía: ITP (transfer tax) at 7%. New-build: 10% IVA + 1.2% AJD (stamp duty). Plus notary, land registry and legal fees of roughly 1 to 2%. Budget 10 to 13% on top of the asking price for total acquisition costs.

Annual IBI (council tax) is typically 0.4 to 1.1% of cadastral value. Community fees on apartments and gated villas range €100 to €600/month depending on amenities. Non-resident owners pay an annual income tax based on cadastral value, plus utilities and home insurance.

In Spain the seller pays the agent commission (typically 3 to 6% + VAT), already baked into the asking price. Buyers do not pay agent fees on resale or new-build.
