Solemar represents a residential development of 58 apartments situated in Casares Costa on the Málaga coastline. The community comprises four buildings containing 2 and 3-bedroom homes, all oriented to the southeast. The location provides immediate access to amenities and is situated a short distance from both the beaches and surrounding golf courses. The project is delivered as a gated community featuring landscaped gardens and a communal pool.
Compared to projects like 'Arrecife' and 'Bliss Homes' in the same region, Solemar positions itself in a higher price segment due to the finishes used and the location right by the sea. While projects further inland (such as 'Abril Doña Julia') are often quieter, Solemar offers the benefits of direct beach access. The price level is higher than the average in Casares, justified by the quality of construction materials (such as brands like Jacob Delafon and Saloni) and the presence of an elevator in all buildings. In the broader context of the Costa del Sol, Solemar offers a favorable price-quality ratio compared to prices in Marbella or Nueva Andalucía, although the living environment here is more compact and touristy in nature.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in an urban coastal environment with a direct position relative to the A-7 highway. This location ensures a fast connection to surrounding towns such as Estepona and Marbella, but also implies that traffic noise may be a perceptible factor. The proximity to the sea is minimal, defining the location as primary for coastal living.
The apartments follow a 'total living' design concept, merging the kitchen, living room, and terrace. For residents prioritizing outdoor living, the southeast orientation provides morning sunlight on the terrace. However, due to the proximity of surrounding buildings, the winter sun may be limited depending on the specific floor level.
This project is currently in the completed phase. Technical specifications indicate finishes using brands such as Jacob Delafon and Saloni. The homes comply with Spanish building regulations (CTE) and are equipped with air conditioning and mechanical ventilation. Delivery is on an indicative basis.
The location adjacent to the main highway (A-7) results in noticeable traffic noise. Due to the surrounding urban density, winter sun exposure on the terraces may be restricted depending on the unit's position. Privacy can be a consideration given the road infrastructure and neighboring properties.
This project suits buyers seeking a second home in the sun that is immediately ready for use. Given the quality of finishes and the presence of an elevator and parking, it is also suitable for retirees looking to settle in a warmer climate without extensive maintenance. For families, the gated community provides a secure environment. It is less suitable for those seeking absolute isolation or rural tranquility, given the presence of the main road and urban density.
The finish of Solemar focuses on durability and ease of use. Kitchens are finished in melamine with a 'natural Swiss oak' finish and include appliances from recognized brands. Bathrooms feature sanitary ware and faucets by Jacob Delafon and TRES, indicating a qualitative standard. Flooring consists of Saloni ceramic tiles, running continuously from interior to terrace areas in a non-slip finish. Aluminum exterior carpentry by STRUGAL with double glazing has been chosen, contributing to insulation. Technically, the homes are equipped with central air conditioning (hot/cold) via ducts, mechanical ventilation, and a heat pump system for domestic hot water. This results in an expected Energy Rating B, favorable for energy costs.
Prices for homes in Solemar start from €545,000. This positions the project in the mid-range segment of the Costa del Sol market. Price variation is determined by the property type (ground floor, mid-floor, or penthouse) and the size of the terrace. All homes include an outdoor parking space.
Living at Solemar means choosing a direct connection to the coastline of Casares. The daily rhythm is defined by the proximity to the sea; the beaches of Playa de Casares and Playa de Manilva are within walking distance. For golf enthusiasts, the environment offers direct access to several courses, including Finca Cortesín just a few kilometers away. The living environment is urban: one lives close to amenities and infrastructure, which is practical but also implies a continuous soundscape of the surroundings. The interior layout of the apartments focuses on convenience, featuring kitchens equipped with built-in appliances and fully tiled bathrooms. It is a setting suitable for those seeking an active lifestyle and the option to leave the car for daily errands.
The immediate environment of Solemar is characterized by the coastal road (A-7/N-340) that separates the development from the beach. This means crossing this road daily to access the seaside. The neighborhood itself is a mix of permanent residency and holiday rentals. Amenities such as supermarkets and restaurants are found in the immediate vicinity in the coastal towns of Sabinillas and Casares Costa. The atmosphere is international and tourist-oriented, focusing on the sea and golf.
The map shows the position of Solemar directly on the coastal road (A-7), west of Estepona and east of Sotogrande. Blue markers indicate the proximity to beaches and the marina of La Duquesa.
Casares Costa is strategically positioned between the larger cities of Estepona and Marbella. The location close to the border of the Cádiz province makes it possible to reach Sotogrande in a short time, an area known for its exclusive golf courses and polo clubs. This makes Solemar a base for a larger area than just the immediate surroundings.
