About this property

Overview

Amenábar Cortesín is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Casares, Costa del Sol, priced from €576,000 to €1,523,000. The project sits within the Finca Cortesín resort estate, which gives buyers direct access to an 18-hole championship golf course, a five-star hotel, beach club and spa facilities without leaving the gated community. This is one of 84 homes in a single phase, so the scale is large enough to support substantial shared amenities but contained within a private, low-density setting. The development targets buyers seeking a resort-managed environment rather than a standalone residential block.

Built sizes range from 91 to 142 m² across two and three-bedroom layouts, all with two bathrooms. Every ground floor apartment includes a private garden, and terraces extend up to 225 m² in some units, which is unusually generous for this price bracket on the Costa del Sol. The development offers two outdoor swimming pools, a spa with sauna and hammam, a fully equipped gym, and a social club for private events. Kitchens come fully fitted with high-end appliances, and the specification includes porcelain flooring, aerothermal heating and cooling, and double-glazed windows with thermal and acoustic insulation. The architecture prioritises natural light and open-plan living spaces that extend onto the terraces.

The beach is 6 minutes by car, and Marbella's Golden Mile is approximately 30 minutes east along the A-7. Casares has historically attracted a mix of golf-focused buyers and those seeking lower density than Marbella or Estepona, often Scandinavian and Northern European second-home owners who value privacy and resort amenities over proximity to town centres. Finca Cortesín itself has an international reputation in the golf market, which supports resale values but also means the community skews heavily towards seasonal use rather than year-round residents. The estate is inland from the coast, set into hillside terrain with valley and partial Mediterranean views depending on the unit's orientation and elevation within the development.

The project is under construction, with completion expected in phases. Spanish new build purchases typically require a reservation deposit to secure a unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion and key handover. All payment schedules and amounts must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts, verify bank guarantees and ensure compliance with Spanish property law. Ground floor apartments with large gardens in resort developments on the Costa del Sol tend to command a premium over mid-floor units, so early-stage pricing may offer better value than purchases closer to completion.

Amenábar Cortesín: Frequently Asked Questions

Amenábar Cortesín offers ground floor apartments ranging from €576,000 to €1,523,000, depending on the size and specific features you choose. The variation in price reflects the different bedroom configurations and built sizes available across the development.

Amenábar Cortesín offers both 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom ground floor apartments to suit different needs. The 2-bedroom units start at the lower end of the price range, while the 3-bedroom options provide additional space for families or those wanting a dedicated office.

Each ground floor apartment at Amenábar Cortesín includes a private garden and private garage as standard. Depending on your chosen unit, you'll have access to either a private pool or communal pool facilities, plus sea views across the development.

Amenábar Cortesín apartments range from 91 m² to 142 m² in built size, offering flexible options whether you're looking for a compact 2-bedroom or a more spacious 3-bedroom layout. The larger units provide more living space while maintaining the ground floor convenience.

Amenábar Cortesín is expected to be completed on 31 January 2029, giving you a clear timeline for your investment. This allows time for quality construction while the development progresses through its building phases.

Buying off-plan in Casares 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.
