Situated in the Los Boliches district of Fuengirola, this commercial property comprises 150 m² of floor space within 225 metres of the coastline. Originally constructed in 1971, the premises are currently fitted as a restaurant with a bar, kitchen, indoor and outdoor seating, and two sanitary facilities. The positioning next to Avenida de Los Boliches provides direct exposure to local traffic. The structure offers the possibility for continued commercial use or conversion into three separate residential apartments, subject to relevant permissions.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property is located in an urbanised coastal zone of Los Boliches, positioned directly between the beachfront and the main transport artery of Avenida de Los Boliches. The setting is characterised by high-density residential and commercial development. The immediate vicinity includes bus stops and retail outlets, placing the premises within the active core of the neighbourhood.
For commercial utilisation, the premises address the need for high visibility and customer accessibility, with existing infrastructure for food service. If the conversion to residential units is realised, the structure fulfils a requirement for multi-unit housing in a central location near the sea. The layout supports the separation of distinct living spaces if developed accordingly.
The building dates from 1971 and is classified as a completed structure, not a new development. The interior appears to have undergone updates to function as a modern catering establishment. No construction timeline is applicable for the shell, though interior renovation or conversion works would be required for a change of use to apartments.
The premises are situated on a busy avenue, which implies exposure to urban noise levels, differing from a quiet residential setting. As a ground-floor commercial unit, it does not offer a private garden or communal residential facilities such as a swimming pool. The orientation and layout are fixed, limiting alterations without significant structural intervention. The property does not currently include residential living quarters.

This property suits an investor seeking a commercial asset with immediate income potential through restaurant operations, or a developer looking to convert commercial space into residential units. It is also relevant for a business owner requiring a high-visibility location in a dense urban area. The premise is less suitable for those seeking a detached family home or a holiday residence with leisure facilities on-site. The buyer must be prepared to manage a commercial entity or oversee a renovation project. It fits a strategy focusing on location density and footfall rather than exclusive tranquillity.
The interior currently features a modern café aesthetic, with large windows allowing natural light and views of the street. The bar area and dining space are fitted with wooden elements and contemporary fixtures, as evidenced by the image data. The condition is reported as excellent, with a functional kitchen installation and sanitary facilities. The outdoor terrace provides additional seating capacity. The structure, dating from 1971, retains its original shell but benefits from internal modernisation suitable for hospitality use. Materials used in the current fit-out focus on durability for commercial traffic.
The asking price is set at €649,000 for the 150 m² commercial space. This equates to approximately €4,326 per square metre. The price reflects the value of the commercial licence potential and the conversion possibility into three flats. Availability is immediate, as the project is a completed, existing structure rather than an off-plan development. Costs for potential renovations or legal changes of use are not included in this figure.
This location functions as a vibrant, year-round urban hub where residential life and tourism intersect. The rhythm of the area is dictated by the proximity to the sea and the commercial activity along the Avenida. Foot traffic is consistent, driven by both local residents and visitors frequenting the 70 restaurants within a 2 km radius. The environment is practical and service-oriented, with immediate access to daily necessities such as supermarkets and pharmacies. The atmosphere is one of activity and convenience, contrasting with the seclusion of more rural developments. The presence of public transport links within 50 metres reinforces the connected nature of this specific point on the Costa del Sol.
The immediate environment offers a high level of self-sufficiency. Essential services, including supermarkets and pharmacies, are located within 100 metres, negating the need for a vehicle for daily errands. The infrastructure supports a pedestrian-friendly lifestyle, with wide pavements and direct access to the promenade. The area is serviced by eight public transport lines with 50 stops nearby, facilitating connectivity to Fuengirola centre and Málaga. The density of amenities such as banks, cafes, and dental practices creates a fully serviced urban ecosystem.
The map highlights the strategic positioning of the premises directly on Avenida de Los Boliches. The 225-metre proximity to the coastline and the immediate adjacency to public transport nodes are visible, illustrating the connectivity of the site within the Fuengirola urban framework.

Compared to residential developments such as Aquamar in Torre del Mar or Lantana Residencial in Mijas, this property represents a distinct asset class. While those projects offer purpose-built homes with communal pools and gardens, this Los Boliches premise offers a commercial footprint in an established urban core. The price point of €649,000 reflects a commercial value per square metre rather than residential pricing seen in the comparable projects. The location is denser and more integrated than the typically suburban locations of new-build residential complexes. Unlike the turnkey nature of new builds, this property requires active management either as a business or a renovation project. However, it provides proximity to the sea that rivals any front-line development, combined with the infrastructure of a mature city district.
