About this property

Overview

Tiara is a new development of 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Benahavis, Costa del Sol, priced from €1,550,000 to €2,300,000. The project comprises 56 units distributed across seven low-density blocks with only two apartments per floor, a configuration that delivers privacy and reduces shared-wall contact compared to typical Costa del Sol developments. Each ground floor apartment includes a private garden of 78 m² with its own pool, positioning this as a horizontal villa alternative rather than a conventional apartment scheme. The development sits above the Golf Valley with direct views across the coastline to Gibraltar and the North African coast.

Built sizes range from 144 to 153 m², with all three bedrooms designed as en-suite and opening onto a large terrace that connects to the private garden. The specification includes aerothermal climate control and underfloor heating throughout. Kitchens are fully fitted. The gated community offers three communal swimming pools, a gym with modern equipment, a spa, and a co-working area. The project's selling point is the combination of ground floor positioning with private outdoor space and pool, which removes the typical apartment compromise between garden access and elevation for views.

Puerto Banús marina is 10 minutes by car, which places Tiara within reach of the western Costa del Sol's commercial and social infrastructure without the density or traffic of the coastal strip itself. Benahavis attracts buyers looking for hillside positions with views, often Northern Europeans seeking a second home with outdoor space and golf access, and families who want proximity to international schools in the Marbella corridor. The Golf Valley location means the development is surrounded by multiple courses, but it also means the property is inland and elevated, so buyers should expect winding access roads and a car dependency for daily errands. The altitude and orientation deliver the views but also cooler evenings compared to beachside locations.

This is a newly built development, with completion status to be confirmed directly with the developer. The standard Spanish new build payment structure applies: reservation deposit secures the unit, stage payments follow construction milestones, and the balance is due on completion when keys are handed over. All amounts and schedules must be verified with the seller. Buyers should instruct independent Spanish legal representation to review contracts and confirm that all planning permissions, build licences, and bank guarantees are in place. Ground floor apartments with private pools in gated communities typically incur higher community fees than standard units due to garden maintenance and individual pool servicing, so request a breakdown of annual charges before committing.

Tiara: Frequently Asked Questions

Tiara ground floor apartments range from €1,550,000 to €2,300,000, with prices varying based on size and specific features. All units include a private garage, and you'll get either a private or communal pool depending on your apartment, plus a private garden space. The variation in price reflects the different orientations, garden sizes, and sea view angles across the development.

Tiara is a beach-side development in Benahavis on the Costa del Sol, giving you direct access to the coast while being in one of the region's most sought-after residential areas. Benahavis offers excellent restaurants, golf courses, and local amenities, all within easy reach of Tiara's location. You're also well-positioned for access to Marbella and other coastal towns.

Every apartment at Tiara has 3 bedrooms and ranges from 144 to 153 square metres, so there's minimal variation in layout and size across the development. This consistency makes Tiara straightforward if you're looking for a specific space requirement. The slight size differences relate to garden configurations and terrace layouts rather than internal living areas.

Tiara's main draw is its beach-side position with guaranteed sea views and a south-facing orientation that maximizes natural light and sea breezes throughout the day. Being right on the coast at Tiara means you're steps from the beach while still enjoying the privacy and amenities of a gated residential community. This combination of beachfront access with a secure, managed environment is what sets Tiara apart in Benahavis.

Tiara is expected to be completed in June 2026, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your apartment. RN, the developer, has set this completion date, and you should confirm current availability and any recent updates directly with the sales team. This timeframe allows for final construction phases and handover preparations.

Buying off-plan in Benahavis 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.
