Artemisa is a new residential development of 66 apartments located in Los Pacos, a residential neighbourhood within Fuengirola. The project comprises one- and two-bedroom units, with the featured property being a one-bedroom apartment of 52 square metres. Construction is currently underway, with completion indicated for the second quarter of 2027. The site is positioned approximately 900 metres from the coastline, within an established urban area where daily amenities are accessible on foot. The development includes communal facilities such as a swimming pool, gymnasium, and sauna, with underground parking and storage rooms available.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The development sits within Los Pacos, a residential district in the eastern section of Fuengirola. The location connects to the coastline via a 7% gradient, indicating an elevated position relative to the sea. The surrounding area consists of established apartment buildings, local commercial units, and public infrastructure, rather than a resort complex or gated community.
The 52-square-metre footprint suits a single occupant or a couple requiring a secondary residence. The open-plan kitchen and living area maximises the usable space within a compact layout. The inclusion of a private terrace, storage room, and garage addresses practical storage and outdoor living requirements for year-round or seasonal use.
The project is currently under construction with an indicative delivery date of Q2 2027. This timeline allows for a standard off-plan purchase process, including stage payments aligned with construction milestones. The 66-unit scale suggests a mid-sized development rather than a large-scale phased masterplan.
The 52-square-metre footprint limits the accommodation to one bedroom, which excludes households requiring multiple bedrooms or dedicated guest space. The 7% gradient to the beach means the coastal walk involves a noticeable descent and ascent. The urban density of Fuengirola, with over 85,000 residents, does not provide a secluded or rural setting.

This property corresponds to situations where a buyer requires a manageable-scale secondary residence in a location that does not depend on a car for basic necessities. The proximity to Málaga Airport, at 16 kilometres, suits those who travel frequently and value reduced transfer time. The compact 52-square-metre layout suits owners who spend limited periods in the property and do not require extensive living space. The Q2 2027 delivery date accommodates buyers whose purchase timeline is not immediate. The established nature of Los Pacos, with schools and healthcare facilities nearby, also fits households considering a gradual relocation or extended stays outside peak summer months. Buyers seeking a property with rental potential benefit from the year-round demand in Fuengirola, driven by its permanent population and transport links.
The structure follows reinforced concrete construction compliant with the Spanish Technical Building Code. Interior partitions use ceramic brick with plaster coating, with double-leaf separation between units for acoustic insulation. Floors throughout the living areas feature large-format porcelain tiles in wood or cement finishes, with painted wooden skirting boards. Kitchen and bathroom wall coverings use porcelain tiles from established manufacturers. The kitchen is delivered fully fitted and equipped with a refrigerator, washing machine, dishwasher, and microwave. Windows consist of PVC monoblock frames with thermal bridge breakage and double-glazed Climalit-style glass. Shutters are fitted to bedroom windows. The bathrooms include walk-in showers. Communal areas feature combinations of marble, granite, or porcelain flooring. The façade incorporates a continuous single-coat render with a ventilated cavity and thermal-acoustic insulation. Flat inverted roofs are finished with exterior-grade porcelain tiles over waterproofing and thermal insulation layers.
The starting price for a one-bedroom unit is €250,000. Within the 66-unit development, prices will vary according to floor level, orientation, and view. South-facing units and those on higher floors typically command higher prices. The inclusion of a garage and storage room is factored into the purchase, though specific allocation may depend on the selected unit. Comparable one-bedroom new builds in Fuengirola start at similar thresholds, placing Artemisa within the standard market range for this property type and location.
Los Pacos functions as a residential suburb where daily life operates on a local scale. The immediate vicinity contains supermarkets, pharmacies, and cafés within a few hundred metres, reducing reliance on a vehicle for routine tasks. The neighbourhood has a settled character, populated largely by permanent residents and long-term property owners rather than transient tourists. The 7% gradient towards the coast means the walk to the beach is downhill, with the return journey requiring an uphill effort. This topography contributes to the elevated positioning of the development, which can offer views across the urban landscape towards the sea. The Cercanías train station at Carvajal, 1.5 kilometres away, provides a connection along the coastal rail line to Málaga city centre and other municipalities without requiring road travel. Within the development, the communal pool and gymnasium serve as the primary leisure amenities, as the immediate footprint is urban rather than recreational.
Fuengirola maintains a permanent population of approximately 85,000, which sustains a full range of urban services throughout the year. Within a two-kilometre radius of the development, there are 70 restaurants, 23 cafés, eight pharmacies, and seven banks. This concentration supports daily life without requiring travel to the town centre. The presence of 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools in the municipality indicates established family infrastructure. Healthcare is provided through three local health centres, with the nearest hospital 6.4 kilometres away. The 25 hotels and 8,085 tourist beds in the municipality reflect a significant tourism sector, though this activity is concentrated near the port and central seafront rather than in Los Pacos. The neighbourhood itself retains a residential rhythm distinct from the busier commercial zones.
The map shows the position of Artemisa within Los Pacos, east of Fuengirola centre. The 600-metre line to the coastline follows a 7% gradient. The Cercanías rail line runs parallel to the coast, with Carvajal station marked to the east. The urban fabric extends continuously along the coast, with the developed areas of Benalmádena visible to the east.
Fuengirola occupies a central position on the western Costa del Sol, situated between Mijas to the north and west and Benalmádena to the east. This positioning provides equidistant access to both Málaga city and Marbella via the AP-7 motorway and coastal N-340 road. Los Pacos lies in the eastern municipal district, adjacent to the border with Benalmádena, which places it closer to the Carvajal area than to Fuengirola town centre.
The nearest beach, Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal, is 809 metres from the development, reachable on foot in approximately ten minutes. Four Blue Flag beaches are within the municipal boundaries. Málaga Airport is 16 kilometres away by road, approximately a 20-minute drive outside peak hours. Gibraltar Airport is 81 kilometres distant. The nearest golf course, Campo Los Lagos, is 4.7 kilometres away, with two additional courses within 5.5 kilometres. The Carvajal Cercanías station, 1.5 kilometres away, connects to Málaga city centre in approximately 35 minutes and to Fuengirola town centre in under five minutes.

Within Fuengirola, Artemisa positions itself at the lower end of the new-build price spectrum. Luminal Homes, also in Fuengirola, starts at €259,000 for comparable units, while the Belvedere Collection begins at €309,000. In Mijas, the Arosa development starts at €490,000, reflecting the premium associated with golf-adjacent positions in that municipality. The distinguishing characteristic of Artemisa is its location within Los Pacos rather than the more central Fuengirola seafront. This results in a lower entry price but requires a walk of approximately ten minutes to reach the beach, including a 7% gradient. Buyers comparing Artemisa to central Fuengirola developments should weigh the price advantage against the distance from the primary commercial and leisure zones. Compared to Mijas developments, Artemisa offers a flatter urban environment with superior pedestrian access to rail transport and retail, whereas Mijas properties typically offer golf course proximity but greater car dependency. The Q2 2027 delivery timeline is consistent with other current Fuengirola projects, as construction timelines in the region typically span two to three years from launch.
