Alura Living is a new development in Casares Costa comprising 99 apartments and penthouses. The residences feature two or three bedrooms, designed to maximize natural light and outdoor living. The project is located approximately 1.2 kilometers from the beach and a short distance from several golf courses, including Finca Cortesín. Residents have access to communal amenities such as swimming pools, a wellness center, and a gym. Completion is scheduled for Q2 2029.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The project is situated in Casares Costa, a coastal strip defined by its position between the Mediterranean Sea and the hinterland. From this location, the coastal towns of Estepona and Marbella are accessible via the A-7 highway. The surrounding area is characterized by a blend of residential developments and natural spaces, with proximity to the sea and golf courses shaping the immediate environment.
The homes are designed for residents seeking outdoor space. Each unit includes a terrace; penthouses offer a solarium, and ground-floor units feature a garden. The layout is open-plan, connecting the kitchen with the living area. This design facilitates lifestyles where significant time is spent outdoors, whether for dining or relaxation on the terrace.
Construction is currently underway with indicative completion in Q2 2029. The structure includes concrete foundations and facades designed for thermal and acoustic insulation. Flat roofs are equipped with insulation layers and waterproofing membranes. Finishes include wooden interior doors and fully fitted kitchens. Technical installations comply with Spanish building regulations (CTE).
The project is classified as 'car dependent'. This means that for daily errands and visiting amenities, such as the supermarket 1.2 km away, a car is necessary. Public transport in the immediate vicinity is limited. The distance to the beach is 1.2 kilometers as the crow flies, implying a short drive or a brisk walk.
This project suits those who prefer a new-build home with minimal exterior maintenance liabilities. It is suitable for golfers due to the immediate proximity of multiple clubs. Families looking for a holiday home with swimming pool facilities within walking distance of the apartment will also find this a viable option. For individuals fully reliant on walking or public transport, the location is less suitable given the distances to amenities.
Build specifications emphasize sustainability and comfort. Facades feature thermal insulation to limit energy consumption. Interior doors are wooden and fitted with sound-dampening seals. Kitchens are equipped with modern appliances. Bathrooms feature high-quality materials. Specific attention has been given to waterproofing of roofs and foundations. Pre-installation for electric vehicle charging is included in the underground parking.
Prices for the residences range from €442,000 to €864,000. The offering includes various types, from apartments to penthouses. Price variations are determined by plot size (62 m² to 113 m²), housing type (apartment or penthouse), and position within the complex, such as the width of the view. All prices exclude acquisition costs and taxes.
Daily life at Alura Living revolves around the balance between private living space and the shared facilities of the complex. The morning can start on the terrace with views of the garden or golf course. After work or a visit to the beach, the complex offers a gym and sauna for relaxation. In the evenings, residents can use the communal BBQ area. The location requires an active approach; the car is the primary means of reaching restaurants, La Duquesa marina, or Estepona town center.
The surroundings offer access to three key beaches within a 3.5 km radius: Playa de Casares, Playa de Manilva, and La Duquesa. For the golf enthusiast, there are three courses within 3.5 km, including the prestigious Finca Cortesín Golf Club. Daily groceries can be found at a supermarket 1.2 km away. Medical care is available at a health center 4.0 km away, with the Estepona hospital at a slightly greater distance.
The map shows the position of Alura Living on the coastal road between Estepona and Gibraltar. The location is highlighted by its proximity to the sea and surrounding golf courses, including Finca Cortesín.
Casares Costa is strategically located between the busier resorts of Estepona and Marbella on one side and the upscale golf enclaves of Sotogrande on the other. The project is situated at the foot of the hills of the white village Casares. This position offers relative quiet compared to Marbella center, yet with enough amenities nearby for permanent living or holidays.
By car, Málaga Airport is reachable in approximately 60 minutes. Gibraltar is located 30 km away as the crow flies. The A-7 highway provides a fast connection to Marbella (35 min) and Estepona (10 min). The village of Casares is a 16-minute drive. A car is practically necessary; the nearest EV charging point is 8.1 km away. Public transport consists of a few lines, but frequency is limited.

Casares is situated at 66 meters above sea level. The climate is Mediterranean with an average annual temperature of 18.6°C. There are approximately 3,845 sunshine hours annually. The swimming season lasts about five months, when water temperatures exceed 20°C. The location offers protection from northern winds due to the nearby mountain range but remains open to the sea, allowing for sea breezes.

Compared to other projects in Casares Costa, such as Solemar and Arrecife, Alura Living distinguishes itself through its emphasis on wellness and sports facilities, such as an indoor golf simulator and extensive fitness areas. While competing projects in the region often focus purely on 'beach living', this project combines beach proximity with a 'golf lifestyle'. In comparison to the cheaper Bliss Homes, Alura offers a higher level of finish and more common areas, reflected in the starting price of €442,000. The location is closer to the sea than inland projects but less touristy than the immediate surroundings of Estepona Centro.
