About this property
Overview
Three-bedroom apartment with beachfront position in Puerto Banús, Costa del Sol. This 190sqm duplex residence sits directly on the Mediterranean shoreline, offering uninterrupted sea views that extend across the marina to the Rock of Gibraltar. The open-plan living configuration on the main floor connects the reception rooms and kitchen to a 35sqm terrace that faces the water.
The accommodation includes three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms distributed across two floors. The principal floor holds one bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, whilst the upper level contains the remaining two bedrooms. The living, dining, and kitchen areas occupy a single fluid space measuring approximately 60sqm, designed to maximise natural light and sea exposure. A guest cloakroom serves the main reception area, and the terrace extends the full width of the apartment's southern elevation.
Andalucía del Mar occupies a beachfront plot with direct sand access, positioned where Puerto Banús meets the open Mediterranean. The complex sits 400 metres west of Puerto Banús marina, where the commercial district begins at the waterfront. Marbella's Golden Mile starts three kilometres northeast along the coastal road, and the AP-7 motorway junction lies 1.5 kilometres inland for access to Málaga airport in 45 minutes. The building dates from 1983 and maintains the low-rise architectural profile typical of early Puerto Banús developments, with the beach immediately in front and the Sierra Blanca mountain range forming the northern backdrop.

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.
