Situated in the Los Flamingos area of Málaga, this 61 m² apartment offers one bedroom and one bathroom, with prices starting from €127,000. Located in an urban environment at an elevation of 38 meters, the property enjoys proximity to essential amenities such as supermarkets and dining options within walking distance. The nearest beach, Playa del Saladillo, is located 1.6 km (as the crow flies) from the property. The complex is fully completed and features communal facilities including a swimming pool and a gym, providing a convenient setup in a well-connected area.
Compared to projects like Arosa in Mijas (starting from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (starting from €720,000), this apartment in Los Flamingos is a financially more accessible option. While those projects often focus on luxury lifestyle homes with full ownership, this project offers an entry point into the market with a service-based model. Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) is also more expensive and aimed at permanent living. This project stands out by combining a low purchase price with the 'hassle-free' aspect of hotel management, contrasting with the freedom and autonomy of buying a standard residence in developments like Arosa.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment is located in Los Flamingos, an urbanized area within the province of Málaga. The coastline is situated nearby, with beaches such as Playa del Saladillo approximately 1.6 km away as the crow flies. The neighborhood is characterized by a mix of residential living and tourism, supported by the presence of numerous hotels and recreational facilities in the vicinity. The site sits at an elevation of 38 meters above sea level.
With a surface area of 61 m² and one bedroom, this apartment accommodates individuals or couples seeking a compact footprint. The inclusion of an elevator and accessibility features ensures practical living. The surrounding amenities, including multiple restaurants and sports clubs, support a lifestyle reliant on external services and facilities. The unit is delivered unfurnished.
This project is classified as 'Completed' (Gereed). This indicates that all construction phases are finalized and the property is available for immediate transfer. There are no ongoing construction schedules or build timelines to consider.
This project is strictly designated for investment purposes and is not intended for use as a permanent primary residence. Usage of the property is governed by the operational framework of the hotel complex. There is no private outdoor terrace or garden space; leisure areas are communal. The environment is subject to the operational rhythms of a hotel, affecting the consistency and privacy of the immediate surroundings.
This project fits investors seeking a 'hands-off' real estate asset on the Spanish coast. It is suitable for buyers who prefer not to manage rental operations and maintenance personally but wish to delegate this to a professional operator. It also appeals to individuals who visit the region periodically for activities like golf or sun vacations but do not require a full-scale residence to maintain. The restriction limiting personal use to two months per year makes it unsuitable for those seeking a permanent base in Spain. Buyers must be aware of the restricted occupancy rights and the commercial nature of the location.
The apartment features standard finishes including central heating and wood flooring. The bathroom is fitted with standard hotel-grade amenities. Build quality aligns with 4-star hotel accommodation standards, prioritizing durability and ease of maintenance over luxury design elements. The building includes an elevator and is accessible to people with reduced mobility. General spaces, such as the lobby and pool area, have undergone renovations to maintain quality standards.
The asking price for this apartment starts from €127,000. This is a fixed price point for a 61 m² unit with one bedroom; there is no variation in size or bedroom count within this specific segment. This entry-level price provides access to the real estate market in this specific part of the Costa del Sol. Compared to regional developments such as Arosa in Mijas (starting from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000), this represents a more financially accessible option, though with a distinct legal and usage framework.
The living environment in Los Flamingos is defined by an active atmosphere focused heavily on recreation and sport. With 15 restaurants and multiple sports centers nearby, the area offers a vibrant selection of hospitality and leisure options. The proximity to several golf courses (including Flamingos Golf within 600 meters) significantly influences the streetscape and local demographic. This is not a setting for isolation; the area is dynamic with a clear international and tourist orientation. Daily necessities like groceries are accessible within 880 meters, covering practical needs efficiently. The high density of hotels and facilities ensures a continuous flow of people and activity.
The immediate surroundings offer a diverse range of facilities within walking or cycling distance. A supermarket is located 880 meters away, three pharmacies are within a 1 km radius, and various dining options allow for daily errands to be completed on foot. The presence of multiple golf courses within very close proximity (Flamingos Golf at 592 meters) defines the lifestyle in this district. There are 24 hotels in the vicinity, contributing to a cosmopolitan atmosphere and extensive tourist amenities. For sports, tennis and paddle clubs are nearby. The street structure is generally flat, with a gentle 2.1% slope toward the beach, facilitating cycling and walking.
The map displays the location of the project in Los Flamingos. It highlights the proximity to the coastline to the south and the golf courses surrounding the area. Distances to local amenities and connections to the N-340 and AP-7 highways are clearly visible.

The area is well-connected to the main coastal road N-340, making the entire Costa del Sol accessible. The area has a high income level compared to the Spanish average, reflected in the quality of amenities.
