About this property

Overview

Amphora Beach Fase IV offers apartments with two or three bedrooms and two bathrooms, built from 99 to 136 square metres. Terraces run from 22 to 91 square metres, and the upper end of that range points to ground-floor units with private gardens or penthouses with wraparound space. The smaller terraces suit couples or second-home buyers after sea views without excessive outdoor upkeep. The larger ones work for families who will use the outdoor space daily, whether for meals, children's play or simply sitting outside most of the year.

The project sits 498 metres from Playa de la Chullera, a six-minute walk or two minutes by car. You are on the sea side of the AP-7, so you cross no major road to reach the beach. Eroski supermarket is three minutes away by car, and Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa marina is six minutes, giving you restaurants and waterside walks within easy reach. Gibraltar Airport is 34 minutes by car. Manilva itself is not a resort town, so this stretch of coast is quieter than Estepona or Marbella, which suits buyers who want beach access without crowds but means fewer cafes and services within walking distance.

The development has communal gardens and a pool, and some homes come with private pools as well. North-east and south-west orientations mean some apartments catch morning light and others afternoon sun, so check the layout carefully if indoor brightness at a particular time of day matters to you. Sea views are a feature, but not every apartment will have the same outlook, and lower floors may have the pool or gardens in the foreground. The combination of beach proximity and space makes this better suited to permanent living or long summer stays than to short holiday lets, where smaller units closer to a town centre usually perform better.

Amphora Beach Fase IV: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de la Chullera is 500 metres away, a six-minute walk. You cross no major road to reach it, because the development sits on the sea side of the AP-7 motorway. That walking distance is unusual for new-build apartments in Manilva and makes this one of the more practical beachside options on this stretch of coast.

Built areas run from 99 to 136 square metres across two- and three-bedroom layouts. Terraces range from 22 to 91 square metres, so a compact two-bedroom might have a small balcony while a ground-floor three-bedroom comes with a private garden approaching 90 square metres. That spread suits different uses, from a lock-up-and-leave second home to a family residence with serious outdoor living space.

Colegio de Educación Infantil y Primaria San Luis de Sabinillas is five minutes away by car, and a hospital is nine minutes. Both sit in or near Sabinillas, the nearest town centre. For secondary schools you would look towards Estepona, 20 minutes up the coast, where the international and private options concentrate.

Orientations are north-east or south-west. A north-east apartment gets morning sun and stays cooler through summer afternoons, while a south-west unit faces the sea and catches the afternoon and evening light. Sea views appear across the development, but the exact outlook depends on floor level and whether the pool or garden sits in the foreground.

The beach is a six-minute walk. Shops, restaurants and a supermarket are two to three minutes by car, not on foot, because Manilva is a quieter stretch of coast without a dense town centre beside the development. Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa marina, which has waterside restaurants and a wider choice of services, is six minutes by car.

Buying off-plan in Manilva 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.
