About this property

Overview

Privilege Suites offers fifteen apartments spread across 107 to 166 square metres, with two or three bedrooms and two or three bathrooms. Terrace sizes run from 36 to 233 square metres, which means the range includes modest balconies at one end and expansive outdoor spaces at the other. Ground-floor apartments come with private gardens on the corner units, and all ground floors have semi-basements with natural light and ventilation. Penthouses sit at the top with large front terraces. Every home has south-facing orientation, and the sea views are panoramic from the upper floors. Three-bedroom homes come with two parking spaces, two-bedroom homes with one.

The development sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway in Casares, which puts the Mediterranean immediately accessible and the motorway within reach for travel along the coast. You can walk to the beach in seven minutes along a pedestrian path, and Lidl supermarket is a seven-minute walk in the other direction. Gibraltar Airport is 39 minutes by car. The setting suits buyers who want proximity to the sea without living in the middle of a resort, and anyone who needs motorway access for work or regular travel. The motorway is close enough to be useful and far enough not to intrude.

The communal areas include landscaped gardens, a pool, a terrace with a barbecue, a gym and a multi-purpose room that opens onto an English patio. The complex is small, so you share these facilities with fourteen other households rather than hundreds. The drawback of a beachside plot next to a motorway is that the setting will never be quiet countryside, and the immediate surroundings are defined by infrastructure rather than landscape.

Location

Casares

Location shown is the development site. This development is in CasaresCosta del Sol.

Privilege Suites sits on the sea side of the AP-7 in Casares, placing you between the motorway and the Mediterranean. Gibraltar Airport is a 39 minute drive away, making it practical for regular travellers. You can walk to Lidl supermarket in 7 minutes, or drive there in 3 minutes. The location works well for buyers who want beach access without being trapped in a built-up resort town, and for anyone who values easy motorway access to the rest of the Costa del Sol.

Privilege Suites: Frequently Asked Questions

The beach is a kilometre away, which is a seven-minute walk along a pedestrian path. The route takes you from the development directly to the Mediterranean, and you can manage it on foot rather than needing to drive.

Terraces range from 36 to 233 square metres. The smaller balconies sit on the two-bedroom apartments, whilst the penthouses and ground-floor corner units carry the largest outdoor spaces. Ground-floor homes have private gardens, and penthouses have large front terraces.

All homes face south and look towards the sea. Upper floors have panoramic views of the Mediterranean. Ground-floor apartments look onto the gardens and pool, and the south orientation means every terrace gets direct sun.

Gibraltar Airport is 28 kilometres away, which is a 39-minute drive. That makes Privilege Suites workable as a lock-up-and-leave property if you fly in regularly, though Málaga Airport is the larger alternative if your flights operate from there instead.

Lidl supermarket is a seven-minute walk from the development, and the beach path takes the same time in the opposite direction. Beyond those two, the setting is beachside rather than urban, so you will need a car for most errands and any dining or shopping beyond basics.

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.
