About this property

Overview

Nova Marina is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom middle floor apartments for sale in Fuengirola, Costa del Sol, priced from €520,000 to €679,000. The project comprises 127 homes in total, making it one of the larger residential schemes currently under construction in central Fuengirola. Its position within walking distance of the town's beachfront gives buyers direct access to the 8-kilometre promenade without relying on a car for daily amenities. At this price point, Nova Marina sits below the coastal average for new construction in neighbouring Mijas Costa and Benalmádena, which typically command a premium for equivalent specifications and proximity to the sea.

Built sizes range from 83 to 110 m², with all apartments featuring two bathrooms regardless of bedroom count. Each home includes a private terrace, and the supplier description notes that the development's layout prioritises natural light through open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas. Some upper-floor units incorporate attic rooms, adding usable space beyond the standard footprint. The project includes a communal swimming pool. Parking provision is not confirmed in the available data, so prospective buyers should verify garage or surface space allocation directly with the developer. The material palette combines varied textures and tones, though specific finishes have not been detailed in the technical documentation.

Fuengirola's central beach is accessible on foot from the development, and Málaga Airport lies 23 kilometres to the northeast, typically a 20-minute drive outside peak summer traffic. The town attracts a mixed buyer profile: northern European retirees seeking year-round sunshine and walkable infrastructure, Spanish families from inland Andalucía purchasing second homes, and investors targeting the steady rental demand generated by Fuengirola's established tourism calendar. The town lacks the marina culture of Puerto Banús or the golf resort density of Marbella's western corridor, but it compensates with a functional town centre, a twice-weekly market, and reliable public transport links along the coast. Fuengirola's urban density means street parking can be constrained, particularly during July and August.

This is an off-plan development currently under construction. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the final balance due on completion and key handover. All amounts and schedules should be confirmed directly with the developer before committing funds. Independent legal representation is recommended to review contracts, verify planning permissions, and conduct due diligence on the developer's financial standing and delivery history. Fuengirola's town hall has been approving residential projects at a consistent rate over the past three years, so buyers should also confirm the development's licence status and projected handover date in writing.

Nova Marina: Frequently Asked Questions

The price at Nova Marina covers the apartment itself, a private garage space, and access to either a private or communal pool depending on your unit. All Nova Marina apartments also include a private garden area, which is a real bonus for a beachside development. You'll also benefit from the south-facing orientation that comes with these middle floor units.

Nova Marina is positioned right on the beachfront in Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol, giving you direct access to the beach and sea. The location means you're close to local restaurants, shops, and the town centre, while still having that coastal living experience. Being beach-side, Nova Marina offers that rare combination of resort amenities and proximity to everyday services.

Nova Marina offers 2 and 3 bedroom options, with built sizes ranging from 83 m² up to 110 m². The 2 bedroom units are typically at the smaller end of that range, while the 3 bedroom apartments give you more space. All Nova Marina units are middle floor apartments, which means you avoid ground level noise and top floor heat while maintaining good natural light.

Yes, Nova Marina apartments come with sea views thanks to the beachfront location and south-facing orientation. The south-facing aspect means your apartment will get excellent natural light throughout the day and views across the water. This orientation is one of the key selling points of Nova Marina's positioning on the Costa del Sol.

Nova Marina is expected to be completed in January 2026, so you're looking at a build timeline of approximately two years from now. This gives you time to arrange your finances and plan your move to the Costa del Sol. The January 2026 completion date means you could be enjoying your new beachside home at Nova Marina in the new year.

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.
