About this property
Overview
Edificio Lúxor is a small building of eight apartments in Fuengirola, designed for people who want to live close to the beach without depending on a car. Playa de Santa Amalia is a four-minute walk away, and the town centre is two minutes by car or walkable if you prefer. The building sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway, which puts the beach within reach but means you will hear motorway noise unless double glazing and orientation keep it out.
The apartments run from two to three bedrooms and from one to two bathrooms, with built sizes between fifty-seven and seventy-three square metres. These are modest, functional homes. The smaller end suits a single person or couple who want a base near the beach. The larger three-bedroom flats work for a small family, though space will be tight if children are older or if you need a dedicated work area. Layouts are open-plan, and the penthouses come with private solariums that add forty-six square metres of outdoor space, enough for dining outside or setting up a seating area with room left over.
Fuengirola is a working town, not a resort. You can walk to Colegio María Auxiliadora and other schools, reach supermarkets and pharmacies on foot, and find restaurants and shops without getting in the car. The Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola marina is three minutes away if you sail or windsurf, and Cerrado del Aguila Golf is eleven minutes by car. Málaga Airport is thirty-four minutes along the motorway, which matters if you travel frequently or rent the property to others.
This suits buyers who prioritise location and low running costs over large rooms or grounds. You sacrifice space and quiet for proximity to the sea and the convenience of having services within walking distance.

Edificio Lúxor: Frequently Asked Questions
How far is the beach from Edificio Lúxor?
Playa de Santa Amalia is a four-minute walk. The building sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway, so you reach the beach without crossing major roads. That puts the sand close enough for morning swims or evening walks without needing the car.
What size are the apartments?
Built areas run from fifty-seven to seventy-three square metres across two and three-bedroom layouts. The smaller flats suit singles or couples using Fuengirola as a coastal base. Three-bedroom homes work for small families, though space becomes tight if children are older or you need a dedicated office.
Do the apartments have outdoor space?
The penthouses come with private solariums of forty-six square metres, large enough for outdoor dining and a seating area with space left over. Other apartments in the building will have smaller terraces or balconies, which is typical for this style of town-centre block in Fuengirola.
What can you walk to from the development?
Fuengirola town centre is walkable, and schools, supermarkets and pharmacies are all within pedestrian range. The marina is three minutes by car but also reachable on foot if you want to walk it. This location works without a car for daily errands, though you will need one for golf or longer trips along the coast.
How far is Málaga Airport?
Málaga Airport is thirty-four minutes by car along the motorway. That makes Edificio Lúxor practical for lock-up-and-leave use or for letting to holidaymakers who fly in for a week or two. The short transfer also suits year-round residents who travel regularly for work.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in Fuengirola 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 Fuengirola?
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.
