About this property
Overview
These are attached villas with three bedrooms and three bathrooms each, built across 191 or 192 square metres with terraces of 57 square metres. Each sits on a plot between 200 and 291 square metres.
The entry-level plots suit buyers who want an efficient garden, while the larger ones give room for landscaping or an extended outdoor living area. All three bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, a layout that works for families who need privacy or for couples who host guests regularly. The homes share space in an attached row, so you have neighbours on one or both sides, and communal areas are part of the setting.
The development sits on the coastal side of the AP-7 motorway in Casares del Sol, a thousand metres from the beach. You can walk to the shore in 13 minutes or drive in four. Gibraltar Airport is 41 minutes by car, which suits anyone who flies regularly to the UK. Golf Academy Albayt Resort is seven minutes away, and the project backs onto hole 14 of Finca Cortesín, one of the better-known courses on this stretch of coast. Estepona town centre, with its shops and restaurants, is 16 minutes by car. Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa marina is eight minutes away if you keep a boat.
This location works for families who want sea views and beach access without living in a high-rise, and for golfers who play several times a week. The attached layout means you hear neighbours through shared walls, and the communal pool and garden are maintained for you rather than by you. If you want a detached villa with no shared boundaries, this is not it.

SPINTO BLU: Frequently Asked Questions
How far is the beach from these villas?
The nearest beach is a kilometre away, which is a 13-minute walk or four minutes by car. The development sits on the inland side of the main coast road in Casares del Sol, so you cross the AP-7 motorway to reach the shore. That puts the beach close enough for a morning swim without living directly on the front line.
Do the villas have private gardens or shared grounds?
Each villa has a private plot between 200 and 291 square metres, and the development also has communal areas with a shared pool. The plot is yours to landscape or use as outdoor space, but the shared pool and gardens are maintained for you. That suits buyers who want some private outdoor space without taking on the full upkeep of a large detached garden.
What views do the homes have?
The villas have sea views, mountain views and pool views, with some homes offering panoramic outlooks that take in more than one direction. The location in Casares gives sightlines across the coast and inland toward the hills, though the specific view from each villa depends on its position in the row and the orientation of its terrace.
Is this location practical without a car?
You need a car for most errands. The beach is within walking distance, but the nearest supermarket is two kilometres away, Estepona town centre is 16 minutes by car, and the marina is eight minutes. The development is close to shops by coastal standards, but not close enough to walk to them for weekly shopping or regular dining out.
How does the golf setting affect daily life here?
The villas back onto hole 14 of Finca Cortesín, so golfers on the course are visible from some gardens, and you may hear play during the day. Golf Academy Albayt Resort is seven minutes away by car. If you play often, the location cuts travel time to the course. If you do not, the setting means you live next to an active fairway rather than open countryside or a quieter residential edge.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
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.
Are my deposits protected if the developer goes bust?
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.
What building guarantees come with a new-build?
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.
What taxes apply to new-build property in Spain?
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.
Can I customise finishes and layout before completion?
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.
How long will construction take?
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.
What should I check before signing an off-plan contract?
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.
Do I need a NIE and Spanish bank account to buy off-plan?
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.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
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.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
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.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Casares?
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.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
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.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
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.
