About this property

Overview

Nova Marina is a collection of two and three-bedroom apartments in central Fuengirola, positioned on the beach side of the AP-7 motorway with direct access to the Mediterranean. The layouts are open-plan, joining kitchen, dining and living space into one room that runs onto the terrace. Terrace sizes range from 19 square metres on smaller apartments to 74 square metres on the penthouses, which also include attic rooms above the main floor. Built sizes run from 83 to 110 square metres, so the smaller end suits couples or holiday buyers after something manageable, while the three-bedroom penthouses work for families or anyone wanting a larger terrace and sea views.

The location is practical rather than secluded. A Dia supermarket is four minutes on foot, and Fuengirola town centre, with its restaurants, shops and services, is close enough to walk to. The beach is at the end of the street. Málaga Airport is 34 minutes by car, which makes this straightforward for holiday lets or for owners who split their time between Spain and home. The setting also puts you within reach of schools, so families living here year-round can manage without long drives.

Being in town and this close to the beach has trade-offs. You have the convenience of shops and the promenade, but not the quiet or the space of a hillside development. The apartments face either north-east or south-east, so some get morning sun and others get it later in the day, but none face due south. The communal pool and gardens are shared across 127 homes, which means the complex is large and the amenities are busy in summer. This suits buyers who want to be in the centre of things and value proximity to the airport and the beach over privacy or extensive grounds.

Nova Marina: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de San Francisco is 500 metres away, at the end of the street. That is a five to seven-minute walk, depending on which building you are in. The development sits on the beach side of the AP-7 motorway, so you do not cross a main road to reach the sand.

Built sizes run from 83 to 110 square metres. The two-bedroom apartments are at the smaller end of that range, while the three-bedroom penthouses take the upper end. Each apartment has two bathrooms. The penthouses also include an attic room above the main floor, which adds space without appearing in the floor count.

Each apartment has its own private terrace, ranging from 19 square metres on the smaller units to 74 square metres on the penthouses. The pool and gardens are communal, shared across the whole complex. You are responsible for your terrace, but not for maintaining the grounds or the pool.

The apartments face either north-east or south-east, so none face due south. South-east orientations get sun from morning into the afternoon. North-east units receive morning light but lose the sun earlier in the day. Check the orientation before you commit if afternoon sun on the terrace matters to you.

Yes. The town has schools within easy reach, a supermarket four minutes on foot, and all the services you need day to day. Málaga Airport is 34 minutes by car, which keeps you connected without living under the flight path. Being in the town centre means less driving than you would do from a hillside development.

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.

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.
