About this property

Overview

Skye Casares Golf is a three-bedroom apartment scheme built into a hillside setting between Casares and Estepona, on the inland side of the coastal road. Each home has two bathrooms and between 99 and 116 square metres of interior space. The terrace sizes stand out: 152 square metres, running the width of the apartments in a cascading layout that gives ground-floor units raised gardens and penthouses wide open roof decks. The views take in the golf course, the Mediterranean and the surrounding hills, and the architecture steps back to keep sightlines clear from floor to floor.

The development sits within Casares Golf, a gated residential area with perimeter security, next to Finca Cortesín. The beach is a five-minute drive, Gibraltar Airport 43 minutes. A Lidl and the Hospital de Alta Resolución de Estepona are both nearby, and Colegio Pablo Picasso is a ten-minute drive for families with school-age children. The Golf Academy Albayt Resort is nine minutes by car. This is not a walking neighbourhood: you will need a vehicle for groceries, the coast and most daily errands.

The three-bedroom layout is designed to flex, so a household can reconfigure rooms as needs change. Ground-floor apartments have the advantage of direct garden access, but you are overlooked from the terraces above. The penthouses gain the largest outdoor space and the clearest views, but also the most direct sun and the longest walk from the car park. Communal facilities include a pool, a gym and a coworking space.

This suits buyers who want a quiet, elevated position within reach of the coast, golf and international schools, and who do not mind being car-dependent. It does not suit anyone looking for village life on foot or a beachfront setting.

Skye Casares Golf: Frequently Asked Questions

The nearest beach is 2.2 kilometres away, about five minutes by car. This is not a beachfront development and the inland hillside position means you cannot walk to the coast. If daily beach access matters to you, you will be making that drive often.

You get uninterrupted golf course views and a quiet, landscaped setting, but you are not in a village with cafés or a high street within walking distance. The Golf Academy Albayt Resort is nine minutes by car, and Finca Cortesín is next door. The trade-off is a car dependency for everything beyond the development gate.

Each apartment has a private terrace of 152 square metres. Ground-floor homes have raised gardens at terrace level, penthouses have roof decks. All apartments also share access to communal gardens and a pool, so you get both private and shared outdoor space without sole responsibility for maintaining extensive grounds.

Colegio Pablo Picasso is a ten-minute drive. The Hospital de Alta Resolución de Estepona is 3.1 kilometres away, about eleven minutes by car. Casares itself is close to shops and schools, but nothing is on foot from this hillside position, so a car is essential for school runs and errands.

Gibraltar Airport is 29 kilometres away, about 43 minutes by car. That makes this workable for lock-up-and-leave use if you are flying in and out of Gibraltar, though Málaga Airport will take longer. The gated setting and communal management suit owners who are not here year-round.

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.
