About this property
Overview
One-bedroom apartment with private pool in Puerto Banús, Costa del Sol. This 69-square-metre flat occupies the second floor of a 2001-built block and includes lift access, a west-facing 18-square-metre terrace, and a subterranean garage space with an adjoining storage room. The orientation captures afternoon and evening sun across the terrace, while air conditioning and individual heating maintain year-round comfort.
Inside, fitted wardrobes line the bedroom, and the living space extends onto both a terrace and a balcony. The complex provides two communal padel courts, a swimming pool with sunbeds and umbrellas, manicured gardens, and a shaded outdoor dining area equipped with tables and chairs. A closed outdoor car park supplements the underground garage. Exterior access has been adapted for reduced mobility, and the flat comes fully furnished.
The block sits directly opposite the ME hotel on the beachside of Puerto Banús, placing the sand three minutes away on foot. El Corte Inglés and the marina lie eight minutes' walk from the entrance, with the boutiques, restaurants, and berths of Puerto Banús forming the immediate neighbourhood. The complex occupies a quiet position within one of the Costa del Sol's most active postcodes, and the garage bay houses both the parking space and a renovated storage room in a single allocation.

Buying this apartment in Puerto Banús
Can foreigners buy property in Puerto Banús?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Puerto Banús. You will need a Spanish NIE (foreigner tax number) before signing the title deed, plus a Spanish bank account for the transfer. The full purchase typically completes 6 to 10 weeks from signing the reservation contract.
What is an NIE and how do I get one?
The NIE (Número de Identificación de Extranjero) is your Spanish tax ID and is mandatory for buying property, opening a bank account or paying taxes. You can apply at a Spanish consulate in your home country or in person in Spain. Your lawyer can also obtain it on your behalf with a power of attorney, typically 2 to 4 weeks.
Do I need a Spanish lawyer?
Strongly recommended. An independent lawyer (abogado), separate from the agent and seller, verifies title, checks for debts and planning issues, drafts contracts and represents you at the notary. Typical fee is 1% of the purchase price plus VAT, with a minimum around €1,500.
How long does completion take?
From accepted offer to keys: 6 to 10 weeks for a resale, 30 to 45 days from reservation if no mortgage is needed. New-build off-plan completes when the development is delivered, often 18 to 36 months after reservation, with staged payments along the way.
What taxes will I pay buying a property in Puerto Banús?
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.
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.
