Project Analysis

Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.

Location

The project is situated in the urban area of Puerto de Cabopino. The distance to the beach (Playa de Cabopino) is approximately 191 meters as the crow flies. The immediate surroundings are characterized by the presence of a marina and a diverse range of hospitality venues. This is a built environment with permanent residency and tourist activity.

Layout

With a living area of 129 m², this property offers space for multiple residents or families. The layout includes three bedrooms, making it suitable for hosting guests or family use. The presence of a valid tourist rental license facilitates usage as a vacation home with rental potential.

Project Status

This is not a new build project, but an existing apartment in 'excellent' condition. The home has been fully renovated using modern materials. The kitchen is updated and the property is immediately habitable. There is a private driveway/parking facility.

Points of Attention

The location in a lively harbor implies environmental noise and activity, differing from a quiet residential area. The apartment is located on an upper floor (not ground floor). The main access roads to the port can be congested with traffic during peak season.

Lifestyle & Surroundings

This apartment fits seekers who value direct access to the sea and harbor life over the tranquility of an inland urbanization. It is suitable for buyers looking for a home that is immediately rentable for tourist purposes (due to the license). Given the dimensions and number of bedrooms, it is relevant for families or owners expecting regular family visits. It is also an option for investors seeking in an area with permanent demand due to harbor facilities. The location requires a preference for a dynamic environment with high footfall and boat traffic.

Build Quality & Finishing

The property is in an excellent state of maintenance. A recent renovation has taken place, where the kitchen has been equipped with modern layout and appliances. The finish of the bathrooms and living spaces has been adapted to contemporary living standards. Materials have been chosen that are resistant to the climate and usage. The terraces are accessible from the living area, strengthening the indoor-outdoor connection. The apartment is equipped with air conditioning for climate control.

Price & Context

Price & Availability

The asking price for this apartment is set at €925,000. This places the object in the higher segment of the supply in Cabopino. This price level reflects the waterfront location (front line), the square footage (129 m²), and the renovation value. Compared to projects in nearby neighborhoods like La Cala or Elviria, the price per m² is higher, mainly explained by the seafront position and marina context.

Context & Surroundings

Living in Puerto de Cabopino means residing in one of the most maritime settings on the Costa del Sol. The day begins with views of boats in the harbor and the sea. Due to the southern orientation, the terraces receive sun throughout the day. The harbor offers a variety of restaurants and bars within walking distance, defining the evenings. It is an environment that remains lively both in winter and summer due to the marina. For beach lovers, the transition from the apartment to the beach (Playa de Cabopino) is very short.

Request Information

Location: Puerto de Cabopino

Living & Surroundings

The immediate living environment is dominated by the marina of Cabopino. This offers a range of amenities including various seafood restaurants, chiringuitos, and water sports businesses. The density of hospitality in the immediate vicinity is high (138 restaurants within 2 km radius). Cabopino beach is well-known and is within walking distance. For daily groceries, the nearest supermarket is located 1.2 km away. The environment is flat (slope 1.7%), facilitating walking and cycling in the immediate area.

Map & Location

The map shows the position of the apartment directly at the harbor entrance of Cabopino. One sees here the coastline with the marina on the east side and the beach of Cabopino on the west side. The visuals make clear that the object borders the water, with sightlines over the bay.

Beachfront room with ocean view, featuring a balcony and lounge chairs.

Location in the Region

Puerto de Cabopino is geographically sandwiched between Marbella and Fuengirola but belongs to the municipality of Marbella. It acts as a pivot point between the densely populated coastal strip of Elviria and the natural areas of Marbella East. Unlike the large urbanizations further west, Cabopino has a more village-like character due to the harbor structure. It is one of the few places on this coast where construction directly borders the harbor, giving it a unique status within the region.

Accessibility & Amenities

Malaga Airport is located approximately 30 km away as the crow flies, meaning a drive of about 25-30 minutes in normal traffic. Accessibility by car is good via the A-7 motorway. For golfers, the courses of Cabopino Golf are 1.2 km away. The harbor itself acts as a terminus, limiting local traffic pressure, though access roads can be busy in season. There are public transport connections (11 lines in the region), but a car is recommended for specific travel.

Beaches & Recreation

The main recreational asset is the location at Playa de Cabopino. This beach is known for its dunes and natural appearance. For golfers, the proximity of Cabopino Golf (1.2 km) and Santa María Golf (3.9 km) offers opportunities to play. In the harbor, facilities for water sports are present. The combination of beach and marina allows for alternating between beach activities and the maritime life of the harbor.

Regional Comparison

Compared to comparable projects such as Arosa (Mijas) or Astra Homes (Fuengirola), this object is significantly higher in price (€925,000 vs €364k - €720k). This difference stems not from finishing, but from location value. Where comparison projects often lie behind the coastline, this project offers 'Front Line' status. A comparable alternative in Marbella city would typically be smaller or further from the beach for this amount. Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720k) is the closest competitor in price and luxury level, but lacks the direct harbor location and unique dune topography of Cabopino. The buyer pays here for the scarcity of harbor apartments with views.
