About this property
Overview
Four-bedroom apartment with beachfront position in Puerto Banús, Costa del Sol. This top-floor residence spans 262sqm of internal space plus a 52sqm south-facing terrace that delivers unobstructed views across the Mediterranean. The duplex layout positions the primary living areas on the main level, where a fully equipped kitchen with central island connects to the reception room and terrace overlooking tropical gardens and the sea beyond.
The main floor holds two king-size bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom and direct terrace access. The master suite occupies the upper level, whilst a fourth bedroom completes the accommodation alongside four bathrooms. Residents benefit from a communal gym, spa facilities including sauna and steam room, a games area with snack bar, and a large pool set within landscaped gardens featuring streams and ponds. The property includes one parking space and sits within a secure development with 24-hour surveillance.
Puerto Banús marina lies within a five-minute walk along the beachfront promenade, which runs directly from the development's private access gate. The south orientation ensures natural light throughout the day, whilst the top-floor position eliminates overlooking from neighbouring properties. The complex provides direct beach access via a gate that opens onto the coastal path connecting to the marina's restaurants and boutiques.

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.
