Compared to new developments like Aquamar in Torre del Mar (starting from €269,950) or Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (starting from €269,000), this apartment represents a resale option in an established area. While newer projects may offer modern designs and potentially lower starting prices for off-plan units, this Benalmadena property provides immediate availability and a location deeply integrated into an existing urban and coastal infrastructure. Lantana Residencial in Mijas, with a starting price of €205,000, likely represents a different segment, potentially further from prime coastal areas or offering smaller units. The €289,000 price point for this 75 m² apartment positions it as a mid-range option within the resale market of the central Costa del Sol, balancing location convenience with the advantages of an established community.
