About this property

Overview

Dunique Marbella sits 434 metres from El Alicate beach, a five minute walk across the AP-7. The apartments are large. Each one has 285 square metres built, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a terrace of 151 square metres and a private garden of 115 square metres. The layout suits families who want space to spread out and a garden big enough to use, not just look at. The south-west orientation puts sun on the terrace from midday onwards.

The setting is beachfront but not isolated. Carrefour Market is three minutes by car, Colegio Las Chapas is two minutes, and Greenlife Golf Marbella is eight minutes away. Málaga Airport is 50 minutes. You can walk to the beach, but you will need a car for everything else. The immediate surroundings are residential, part of an urbanisation rather than open countryside.

The development has a social club with a spa, indoor and outdoor gyms, a heated indoor pool and coworking spaces. The main outdoor pool is raised, giving long views over the sea and mountains. Kitchens are by Pedro Peña Design with Gaggenau appliances, and a home automation system runs lighting, climate and security from a central interface.

The combination of beachfront access and extensive facilities makes this well suited to families who spend long stretches here rather than using it for short breaks. The size and the emphasis on shared amenities mean running costs will be higher than in a smaller block. If you want a lock-up-and-leave apartment with minimal maintenance, this is not it.

Dunique Marbella - Apartments: Frequently Asked Questions

El Alicate beach is 434 metres away, a five minute walk. You cross the AP-7 coast road to reach it. The development is beachfront, so the walk is short enough for families with young children or for making several trips a day with beach gear.

English International College is 1.3 kilometres away, about seven minutes by car. Urgencias Hospital Costa del Sol is 1.6 kilometres, five minutes by car. The nearest supermarket is 400 metres, three minutes by car. Marbella town centre, with its wider range of shops and services, is 6.7 kilometres away, about 13 minutes by car.

Each apartment has both a private terrace of 151 square metres and a private garden of 115 square metres. You are also responsible for the upkeep of that garden. The development has communal pools and shared facilities, so you pay for both private and communal outdoor space.

The apartments face south-west and have sea, mountain, beach, garden and pool views. The panoramic aspect takes in both the coastline and the hills inland. Sun reaches the terrace from midday onwards because of the orientation.

Málaga Airport is 34 kilometres away, about 50 minutes by car. That makes this better suited to families who spend weeks or months here rather than flying in for long weekends. The size of the apartment and the facilities on site are designed for extended stays, not short breaks.

Buying off-plan in Marbella 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.
