About this property

Overview

Alcantara del Mar Apartments is a new development of 1 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Marbella, Costa del Sol, priced from €439,000 to €817,700. The project forms part of a wider boutique scheme in San Pedro de Alcántara comprising just 17 apartments alongside townhouses, semi-detached villas, and commercial units. What sets this development apart is the deliberate absence of shared communal facilities, which translates to unusually low monthly community fees whilst preserving privacy and independence for owners. The architecture follows contemporary coastal lines with an emphasis on natural light and indoor-outdoor flow.

Built sizes range from 76 m² to 144 m², with one or two bathrooms depending on the unit. All apartments are ground floor, offering direct access to private outdoor space. Ceiling heights reach approximately 2.85 metres, creating a sense of volume often missing in standard coastal developments. Underfloor heating is installed throughout each property as standard. Kitchens and bathrooms are fitted with modern fixtures and premium materials, whilst floor-to-ceiling windows maximise daylight and connect living areas to terraces or gardens. The open-plan layout links kitchen, dining, and living zones in a single fluid space. No communal pool or gym is included in this development, which keeps ongoing costs down and appeals to buyers seeking a low-maintenance coastal base.

San Pedro de Alcántara sits midway between Marbella and Estepona, and this development is positioned within walking distance of the beach, the Paseo Marítimo, and the San Pedro boulevard. Puerto Banús marina is approximately 6 minutes by car. The area attracts a mix of permanent residents, northern European second-home buyers, and investors targeting the rental market, particularly families and couples who value proximity to international schools and year-round services. San Pedro has undergone significant regeneration in recent years, with improved pedestrian zones and a growing restaurant and retail offering, though it retains a more local character than Marbella's Golden Mile or Puerto Banús itself. Road access to the AP-7 motorway is straightforward, connecting the development to Málaga airport in under 50 minutes.

This is a newly launched project, currently in the off-plan or early construction phase. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments during construction, with the balance due on completion and key handover. All amounts and payment schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended to review contracts, verify licences, and manage the purchase process. The inclusion of six commercial units within the wider scheme may offer convenience for residents once the development is fully occupied, though buyers should clarify the intended use of these spaces before committing.

Alcantara del Mar Apartments: Frequently Asked Questions

The price covers the apartment itself, a private garage space, and access to all communal facilities. At Alcantara del Mar Apartments, you're buying a finished property ready for immediate use once construction completes in January 2028, so there are no hidden costs for basic finishes or parking.

Alcantara del Mar Apartments is located directly on the beachfront in San Pedro de Alcántara, so you have immediate access to the sand and sea. The beach-side location is one of the main selling points of this development, giving residents direct access to the Costa del Sol coastline.

Alcantara del Mar Apartments offers 1, 2, and 3-bedroom units ranging from 76 m² up to 144 m² in built size. Prices start at €439,000 for the smaller units and go up to €817,700 for the largest 3-bedroom apartments.

Yes, every unit at Alcantara del Mar Apartments comes with a private garage included as part of the purchase. This is a significant advantage in a beachfront location where parking can otherwise be difficult to secure.

Alcantara del Mar Apartments is expected to be completed in January 2028, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your property. This gives buyers time to arrange financing and plan their move to the Costa del Sol.

Buying off-plan in San Pedro De Alcantara 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.
