About this property

Overview

Royal Palms Mijas is a new development of 3-bedroom ground floor apartments for sale in Mijas, Costa del Sol, priced from €929,000 to €1,600,000. The project occupies a hillside position above La Cala de Mijas, arranged across a sloping site that allows most units to capture sea views despite the ground floor classification. This is a resort-scale development rather than a boutique block, with extensive shared facilities that position it as a lock-up-and-leave option for international second home buyers who want amenities on-site rather than relying entirely on the surrounding town.

Built sizes range from 109 to 133 m² across the 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom layouts. All units are ground floor apartments, which in practice means garden-level or raised ground floor depending on the slope. The development includes a beach-style swimming pool, a dedicated children's play area, and what the developer describes as resort-level facilities, though specific details of gym, spa, or clubhouse provision have not been confirmed in the available data. The supplier description references "All Seasons Premier Resort" amenities exclusive to residents, suggesting a managed community model with ongoing service charges to match.

La Cala de Mijas sits roughly 30 kilometres southwest of Málaga airport, a 35-minute drive along the A-7 coastal motorway. The town attracts a mix of northern European retirees and families who want year-round sunshine without the density or price point of Marbella, which lies 20 minutes further west. The beachfront here is wide and sandy, lined with chiringuitos that stay open through winter, and the town itself has grown into a self-contained community with supermarkets, medical centres, and English-speaking services. The development is described as within walking distance of both the beach and the town centre, though "walking distance" on a hillside in southern Spain often means a steep 10 to 15-minute climb back from sea level, particularly relevant for older buyers or those with mobility considerations.

This project appears to be either under construction or recently completed, though the supplier data does not specify a handover date. Standard Spanish new build payment terms apply: a reservation deposit to secure the unit, stage payments tied to construction milestones if buying off-plan, and the balance transferred on completion when keys are handed over. All amounts and schedules must be confirmed directly with the developer. Independent legal representation is strongly recommended, particularly for buyers unfamiliar with Spanish property law and community fee structures. Ground floor apartments in hillside developments often come with larger private terrace or garden areas than higher floors, worth clarifying during viewings as this can significantly affect usable outdoor space.

Royal Palms Mijas: Frequently Asked Questions

The price at Royal Palms Mijas covers the apartment itself, your private garage, and either a private garden or access to communal pool facilities depending on which unit you choose. All ground floor apartments come with sea views and south-facing orientation, so you're getting prime location features as standard across the price range of €929,000 to €1,600,000.

Royal Palms Mijas is situated in La Cala de Mijas on the Costa del Sol, right on the beachfront. This means you're steps away from the beach and the local restaurants and amenities that line the coast, while still being within easy reach of Mijas town and the wider Costa del Sol.

All units at Royal Palms Mijas are 3-bedroom ground floor apartments, with built sizes ranging from 109 m² to 133 m². The variation in size and price reflects different layouts and whether you have a private garden or communal pool access included.

Ground floor apartments at Royal Palms Mijas give you direct access to your private garden and easier access to the beach, plus you avoid stairs with your garage. The south-facing orientation means consistent natural light throughout the day, and the sea views from ground level at Royal Palms Mijas are unobstructed and immediate.

Royal Palms Mijas is expected to be completed in February 2027, so you're looking at approximately two years from now. This gives you time to arrange your finances and plan your move to this beachfront location on the Costa del Sol.

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.
