About this property
Overview
Lakün FASE II sits in Las Lagunas, the commercial and residential centre of Mijas that grew rapidly in the last decade and now holds more than half the municipality's population. This is not the hillside old town or the beachfront. Las Lagunas is inland, modern, and built for daily life rather than tourism. Shops, supermarkets, schools and health centres are all close. Fuengirola beach is a short drive south, Marbella and Málaga both under half an hour by car. The immediate surroundings are low-rise residential blocks and commercial units, not particularly attractive but entirely functional.
The apartments range from two-bedroom units at 85 square metres to three-bedroom homes at 150 square metres. The larger layouts suit families who need space without stepping up to a villa. The smaller ones work for couples or as a base that does not require constant upkeep. All have two bathrooms. Layouts are contemporary and open, with kitchens that flow into living areas and terraces that extend the usable space for much of the year.
The amenities are unusually extensive. Two outdoor pools, a rooftop pool, a spa, a gym, a coworking area and landscaped gardens. These are designed to function like hotel facilities, which means they are maintained by the community rather than by you, and they will be used by your neighbours as well. If you value privacy and quiet above shared spaces, this is not the right fit. If you want access to a pool and gym without leaving the building, and you are comfortable in a sociable environment, the setup makes sense.
Las Lagunas is practical rather than scenic. You are not on the front line of anything, and the area lacks the charm of older coastal towns. What it offers is convenience, good road links, and a solid spread of services within walking distance. The development itself compensates for the setting by putting effort into the communal areas. This is a home for someone who prioritises location over views, and shared facilities over seclusion.

Lakün FASE II: Frequently Asked Questions
How big are the apartments?
Built areas run from 85 square metres for a two-bedroom unit to 150 square metres for three bedrooms. All apartments have two bathrooms. The larger layouts give families room to spread out without moving to a villa, while the smaller ones suit couples or anyone who wants a low-maintenance base on the Costa del Sol.
What is within walking distance in Las Lagunas?
Shops, supermarkets, schools and health centres are all close by. Las Lagunas is the commercial heart of Mijas and built for daily life rather than tourism. The beach requires a car: Fuengirola is a short drive south, and Marbella and Málaga are both under half an hour away.
Does the development have a pool and gym?
Yes. Two outdoor pools, a rooftop pool, a spa, a gym, a coworking area and landscaped gardens. These are communal facilities maintained by the community, so you share them with your neighbours. They work well if you want pool and gym access without leaving the building and are comfortable in a sociable setting.
Is this better for year-round living or holidays?
Year-round living. Las Lagunas has schools, health centres and supermarkets all nearby, and the larger three-bedroom apartments give families the space they need. The area is residential and functional rather than a resort zone, so it suits people who want a home rather than a holiday base.
What are the surroundings like?
Low-rise residential blocks and commercial units. Las Lagunas is modern and inland, not particularly attractive but entirely practical. You are not near the beach or the hillside old town, and the area lacks the appeal of older coastal villages, but road links are good and daily services are close.
How does buying off-plan work in Spain?
Buying off-plan in Las Lagunas 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.
Are my deposits protected if the developer goes bust?
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.
What building guarantees come with a new-build?
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.
What taxes apply to new-build property in Spain?
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.
Can I customise finishes and layout before completion?
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.
How long will construction take?
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.
What should I check before signing an off-plan contract?
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.
Do I need a NIE and Spanish bank account to buy off-plan?
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.
Can non-residents get a Spanish mortgage?
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.
Should I get pre-approval before viewing?
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.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Las Lagunas?
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.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
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.
Are agent fees paid by the buyer or seller?
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.
