About this property

Overview

Rayos Del Sol is a new development of 2 to 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Mijas, Costa del Sol, priced from €570,000 to €890,000. The project's defining feature is that every unit, including all ground floor homes, has been designed to capture sea views, an unusual achievement in a 36-apartment scheme where lower-level properties typically face gardens or internal courtyards. The development sits in El Chaparral, a coastal enclave known for its proximity to both Fuengirola and La Cala de Mijas, and for its year-round climate that supports outdoor living well beyond the summer months.

Built sizes range from 76 to 97 m² across two and three-bedroom layouts, each with two bathrooms. The project includes separate swimming pools for adults and children, a gym with sea views, 24-hour security, and a golf practice green with a petanque court on site. Ground floor apartments open directly onto communal gardens, and the architecture has been planned to ensure sightlines to the Mediterranean from each level. The development is gated, with on-site manaoptionent and concierge services. Interiors follow a contemporary specification with open-plan living areas and terraces sized to extend the usable space during the extended dry season.

El Chaparral lies 700 metres from the beach and five minutes by car from both Fuengirola town centre and La Cala de Mijas. The area attracts a mix of Northern European second-home buyers and year-round residents, many of whom value the balance between coastal access and a quieter residential setting compared to the denser stretches closer to Marbella. The immediate surroundings are low-rise and residential rather than commercial, so daily amenities require a short drive rather than a walk. The AP-7 motorway is accessible within minutes, connecting the development to Málaga airport in 25 minutes and Marbella in 20, which supports both holiday use and rental income strategies.

This is an off-plan project, with construction timelines and completion dates to be confirmed directly with the developer. The standard Spanish payment structure applies: a reservation deposit secures the unit, followed by stage payments tied to construction milestones, with the balance due on completion when keys are handed over. Buyers should arrange independent legal representation to review contracts, verify build schedules, and confirm all specifications before committing funds. One practical consideration: ground floor apartments in coastal developments often command lower resale premiums than mid or upper floors, but in this project the guaranteed sea views may narrow that gap when the time comes to sell.

Rayos Del Sol: Frequently Asked Questions

The prices at Rayos Del Sol range from €570,000 to €890,000 depending on the apartment size and features you choose. All units come with a private garage and either a private garden or access to communal facilities, plus your choice of private or communal pool depending on the specific property. The ground floor apartments are between 76 and 97 square metres, so you get substantial living space with direct access to outdoor areas.

Rayos Del Sol is located in El Chaparral on the Costa del Sol, right on the beachfront with direct access to the sand. The development sits in a prime position between the beach and a golf course, giving you both sea views and a golf-adjacent location. You're in one of the most sought-after coastal areas of southern Spain with excellent access to amenities and the wider Costa del Sol.

Rayos Del Sol offers ground floor apartments in two configurations: 2-bedroom units and 3-bedroom units, with built sizes ranging from 76 to 97 square metres. The 2-bedroom options start at the lower end of the size range, while the 3-bedroom apartments give you more space and typically fall into the higher price bracket. All units benefit from the ground floor layout with direct garden access, which is a real advantage in a beachside development like this.

Rayos Del Sol is a beachfront development with direct sea views and a south-facing orientation that maximizes natural light throughout the day. The unique selling point is the frontline golf position, so you get both beach access and golf course views from your home. Every apartment includes a private garage and either a private garden or communal pool access, plus you can choose between private or communal pool facilities depending on your preference.

Rayos Del Sol is expected to be completed in August 2026, giving you a clear timeline for when you can take possession of your new ground floor apartment. The development is being built by PLAYA MARINA, an established developer on the Costa del Sol. This completion date applies across all the 2 and 3-bedroom units in the project.

Buying off-plan in El Chaparral 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.
