About this property

Overview

This is a six-bedroom detached villa on a 602 square metre plot, with 350 square metres built and 100 square metres of terrace. The layout spans multiple floors connected by a lift. Three bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and open onto terraces with sea views. A lower level gives space for a gym, cinema room or additional bedrooms. The top floor is given over to a solarium. On the main level, the living and dining area flows into an open-plan kitchen. Outside, the private garden holds a swimming pool and a jacuzzi, with a covered porch for shade.

Riviera del Sol sits on the coast side of the AP-7 motorway, putting Playa de Calahonda 18 minutes away on foot. Málaga Airport is 39 minutes by car. Carrefour is a 13 minute walk for groceries. Cabopino Golf is nine minutes by car, and Puerto Cabopino marina ten minutes. Fuengirola town centre, with its restaurants and seafront promenade, is 17 minutes away. The area has established international schools, including St Anthony's College and Instituto de Educación Secundaria Cala de Mijas, both within a short drive.

A villa of this size works for a large family or for buyers who want dedicated rooms for guests, a home office and leisure space under one roof. The lift makes the layout practical across all floors. The garden and pool are entirely private, which matters if you prefer not to share facilities. The drawback is the same as the appeal: 350 square metres and a large plot mean higher running costs and more maintenance than a typical villa on the coast.

Villas en Riviera del Sol: Frequently Asked Questions

Playa de Calahonda is 1.5 kilometres away, which is an 18 minute walk or four minutes by car. The development sits on the coast side of the AP-7 motorway, so you do not need to cross major roads to reach the sea. The beach is sandy with calm water and a handful of chiringuitos.

A Carrefour supermarket is a 13 minute walk, and the beach is 18 minutes on foot. Beyond that, most amenities need a car: the nearest golf course is 2.9 kilometres away, the marina is 3.2 kilometres, and Fuengirola town centre is 8.9 kilometres. Riviera del Sol itself has a few shops and restaurants, but daily life here assumes you drive.

Málaga Airport is 27 kilometres away, about 39 minutes by car along the A-7 coast road and the AP-7 motorway. The route is direct and well signposted. For buyers using the villa as a second home, the distance keeps airport runs short without putting the property under a flight path.

St Anthony's College, a British curriculum international school, is 6.1 kilometres away, roughly 17 minutes by car. Instituto de Educación Secundaria Cala de Mijas is ten minutes by car. Both serve families who need English-language education on the Costa del Sol. The nearest hospital, Urgencias Hospital Costa del Sol, is 16 minutes away.

Six bedrooms and a private pool attract large groups and extended families, which can command higher weekly rates than smaller properties. The garden and multiple terraces give guests space to spread out. The drawback is turnover time: a 350 square metre villa with four bathrooms and several entertaining areas takes longer to prepare between bookings than a three-bedroom apartment.

Buying off-plan in Riviera Del Sol 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.
