Compared to the mentioned projects like Acqua Gardens and Aby Upper in Estepona, and Alba Benalmadena in Benalmadena, this plot in La Cala de Mijas positions itself as a unique investment opportunity focused on large-scale residential development, rather than individual apartment sales. While the projects in Estepona and Benalmadena offer apartments from prices between €320,000 and €699,000, this offering focuses on land value and the potential for bulk development. The €1,400,000 price for this 4909 m² plot is significant, but should be weighed against the building possibilities (2945 m² buildable area) in a region characterized by substantial investments and growth. La Cala de Mijas itself offers a favorable balance between tourist appeal and local amenities, enhancing the attractiveness for potential residents of a new complex. Proximity to Málaga and Marbella, combined with infrastructure improvements, places this project favorably compared to other locations on the Costa del Sol.
