About this property
Overview
Two-bedroom penthouse with private pool in Fuengirola, Costa del Sol. The private rooftop pool transforms this sixth-floor residence into a rare coastal retreat where you can swim before breakfast without leaving home. South-facing terraces wrap around the living spaces, extending the 115sqm interior into open-air rooms that catch afternoon sun year-round.
Inside, the layout separates the master suite with its en-suite bathroom from the second bedroom, both positioned to maximise natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows. The living room opens directly onto the main terrace through wide sliding doors, creating a single flowing space when open. A fully equipped kitchen includes a separate utility room that keeps laundry and storage out of sight, whilst the second bathroom serves guests and the second bedroom. One parking space in the underground garage comes with the property, along with access to the communal pool and landscaped gardens at ground level.
Myramar El Lago sits in a quiet residential pocket of Fuengirola, 800 metres from the beach and a five-minute walk from Miramar Shopping Centre, where you'll find supermarkets, restaurants and a cinema. The lift reaches the sixth floor directly, and the property was completed in 2011, so the building infrastructure and communal areas remain in excellent condition without requiring immediate updates.

9 questions answered
Buying this penthouse in Fuengirola
Can foreigners buy property in Fuengirola?
Yes. Spain places no restrictions on foreign buyers, EU and non-EU citizens can purchase freely in Fuengirola. 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 Fuengirola?
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.
