The site is positioned adjacent to the Baviera Golf Course, offering views of the sea, mountains, and fairways.

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located just 500 meters from Caleta de Vledez, a town known for its marina and beaches. It is positioned directly alongside the Baviera Golf Course, integrating it into a recreational zone. The surrounding area includes approximately 900 homes, many with private gardens, creating a stable base of potential users.
For development purposes, the site offers high visibility and accessibility within a established community. The proximity to the coast and golf course supports hospitality or lifestyle-oriented projects. The zoning allows for a variety of uses, ranging from elderly care to educational facilities.
The plot is undeveloped land with secured zoning permissions for commercial and hospitality use. A valid mortgage appraisal certificate is available. The building permit process requires a guarantee for simultaneous urbanization and construction works, which can be deducted from the sales price.
The site is not suitable for purely private single-family residential development in the traditional sense; it is designated for commercial, hospitality, or institutional use. The developer must adhere to local regulations regarding building size and usage percentages. Access is dependent on existing road infrastructure.
This property is suitable for investors or developers seeking large-scale hospitality projects (such as a 370-room hotel) or care facilities (residence for the elderly). It is also viable for mixed-use developments combining retail and office space. It is not intended for individual private home buyers.
As a plot of land, the finishing quality is determined by future construction. The current state is 'Excellent' in terms of terrain condition and location potential. The foundations and infrastructure must be built according to Spanish building codes.
The asking price is set at €3,700,000. Financial documents indicate a significantly higher mortgage appraisal value of €8,636,737 and a cadastral value of €8,849,932. This pricing strategy positions the property as a 'Bargain', offering a substantial discount relative to its assessed valuation.
Caleta de Vélez serves as a functional coastal town with a strong maritime identity due to its active fishing port and marina. Unlike purely tourist resorts, it maintains a year-round population of locals and expatriates. For a commercial developer, this means a captive audience of residents and golfers, supplemented by seasonal tourists. The climate allows for outdoor operations and activities throughout most of the year, supporting hospitality ventures.
The immediate environment provides essential amenities within walking distance, including a supermarket and pharmacy. The marina area offers dining and leisure options. The location offers a balance of accessibility to the highway and the tranquility of being slightly removed from the main tourist drags.

The Eastern Costa del Sol is a developing region that offers more space and lower entry prices compared to the western coast (Marbella/Puerto Banús). Caleta de Vélez is well-connected via the A-7 motorway, acting as a gateway to the Axarquía region.
The nearest beach, Playa de La Caleta, is approximately 1 km away as the crow flies. Malaga Airport is 39 km away. While local shops are accessible on foot, a car is recommended for accessing the nearest golf courses (approx. 37-40 km) and the city of Malaga.

Compared to developments in Fuengirola or Mijas, which are often high-density residential apartments, this plot in Caleta de Vélez offers a unique institutional/commercial scale. The price point per square meter is notably lower here than in the 'Golden Mile' areas, reflecting a different market segment but offering high potential returns given the gap between asking price and valuation.
