About this property

Overview

Residencial Albatros XIV is a block of apartments in Nueva Andalucía, with sizes spanning 77 to 139 square metres. The smaller two-bedroom apartments suit singles or couples looking for a second home near the coast. The larger four-bedroom layouts work for families who need year-round space and are drawn to the proximity of Aloha College, which is 10 minutes away by car. Each apartment has two bathrooms and a terrace that varies widely, from 4 to 98 square metres, so the top-floor units with the largest outdoor space appeal to a different buyer than the ground-floor apartments.

The location sits between the AP-7 motorway and the sea, with San Pedro Alcántara town centre 6 minutes away and Playa Canina Ventura del Mar reachable in 8 minutes. Magna Marbella Golf is 5 minutes away, which makes this a practical choice for golfers who want to be close to the course without paying for a frontline position. The building is in a neighbourhood that has been expanding, so you are surrounded by newer construction rather than the older villages or the established beachfront.

The development includes a rooftop pool, a gym and communal gardens. The pool overlooks the sea and the mountains, and every apartment comes with a parking space in the building. Orientations run from north through to north west, so some apartments face the sea while others look inland. Sea views are available, but they are not guaranteed across the board, and the apartments on lower floors will have more limited sightlines.

The setting is suburban rather than rural or beachside. You are close to shops, schools and golf, but nothing is on your doorstep. A car is necessary for almost every journey. Málaga Airport is an hour away, which is manageable for holiday visits but becomes a long haul if you are commuting frequently.

RESIDENCIAL ALBATROS XIV: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa Canina Ventura del Mar is 2.4 kilometres away, which is about 8 minutes by car. The development sits inland in Nueva Andalucía, so walking to the beach is not practical and you will need a car for most trips to the coast.

Built sizes range from 77 to 139 square metres, with layouts from two to four bedrooms. All apartments have two bathrooms. Terrace sizes vary widely, from 4 square metres on some units to 98 square metres on the largest, so the outdoor space you get depends heavily on which floor and position you choose.

Aloha College is 2.6 kilometres away, about 10 minutes by car. The local health centre is even closer, at 0.5 kilometres or 3 minutes by car. San Pedro Alcántara, 6 minutes away, has shops and services, so the Marbella area suits families who need year-round infrastructure.

Views include sea, mountain, panoramic and garden, depending on which apartment you choose. Orientations run from north through to north west, so some units face the sea while others look inland. The rooftop pool overlooks both the sea and the mountains, but lower-floor apartments will have more limited sightlines.

Magna Marbella Golf is 0.7 kilometres away, about 5 minutes by car. The location on the Costa del Sol puts you close to several courses without paying the premium for a frontline plot, which matters if you play regularly but do not need to see fairways from your terrace.

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.
