About this property

Overview

Bahia offers two and three bedroom apartments with built areas from 86 to 115 square metres, plus terraces that range from 21 to 82 square metres. The larger terraces suit buyers who want proper outdoor living space, not just somewhere to put a chair. The smallest units work for couples or single professionals, while the three bedroom layouts give families room to spread out. All apartments have two bathrooms.

The development sits 1.7 kilometres from Playa de La Cala, which is a 22 minute walk or 11 minutes by car. You are close to the sea but not on it, so you need wheels for golf courses and the airport. El Chaparral Golf Club takes 15 minutes to reach by car, and Málaga Airport is 45 minutes away. Fuengirola town centre is within 20 minutes for restaurants and shops, and there is a Lidl nearby for daily shopping. This location puts you in an urbanisation rather than in the middle of La Cala village itself, so you will drive for most errands.

The setting offers sea, mountain, golf and garden views depending on which apartment you choose, with orientations split between north east and south west. The communal areas include a swimming pool and gym, both surrounded by gardens. Families have the choice of Instituto de Educación Secundaria Cala de Mijas for Spanish schooling or St Anthony's College for international education, both a short drive away.

This suits golfers, families who want space without city noise, and anyone looking for a base that balances access to the coast with lower density surroundings. The distance from the beach means you will not walk there daily, and the urbanisation setting means you rely on a car more than you would in a town centre.

Bahia: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de La Cala is 1.8 kilometres away, which is a 22 minute walk or 11 minutes by car. The distance is close enough for a morning stroll when you have time, but most people drive because the supermarket and other services are not between the development and the shore.

Terraces run from 21 to 82 square metres. The smallest work as a balcony for a table and chairs, while the largest give you enough space for outdoor dining, lounging and planting. The range is wide, so check the specific terrace size before you choose an apartment.

The apartments offer sea, mountain, golf, garden or panoramic views depending on position and orientation. North east facing units catch morning light, while south west facing ones get afternoon and evening sun. Not every apartment has sea views, so ask which aspects apply to the unit you are considering.

Instituto de Educación Secundaria Cala de Mijas is 7 minutes away by car for Spanish schooling, and St Anthony's College is 16 minutes away for international education. Urgencias Hospital Costa del Sol is 21 minutes by car, and a supermarket is 8 minutes away in La Cala de Mijas.

El Chaparral Golf Club is 3.3 kilometres away, which is a 15 minute drive. The golf views are part of the scenery rather than a walk-to amenity, so this suits golfers who drive to courses anyway and want the open landscape without the higher cost of a frontline plot.

Buying off-plan in La Cala De Mijas 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.
