This new development in Manilva offers contemporary residential living on the Costa del Sol. The project consists of multi-family buildings with 2-3 bedroom apartments designed for modern Mediterranean living. Properties range from 123m² to 192m², with prices between €363,805 and €458,130. Located just 0.5 km from Playa de la Chullera and within a short distance of local amenities, the development combines coastal convenience with residential comfort.
Compared to surrounding developments in Manilva, this project occupies a mid-tier price position. Blue Marine in Manilva starts from approximately €465,000, positioning this development approximately €7,000-100,000 below comparable properties in that development. Pure Sun in Manilva offers entry points from €398,000, making this development slightly more expensive by approximately €15,000-65,000 depending on unit selection. Amphora Beach in Manilva begins at €430,000, placing this development at a similar entry point with approximately €33,000 upward flexibility. The distinction lies in the development's specific positioning closer to Playa de la Chullera (0.5km) compared to many alternative Manilva developments which tend to cluster further east near Sabinillas.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The development is situated in Manilva, within the province of Málaga, positioned 0.5 km from the coastline at Playa de la Chullera. The location offers a balance between accessibility and seclusion, with essential services within walking distance (supermarket at 315m, pharmacy at 159m). The 30m elevation above sea level provides slight protection while maintaining coastal proximity, with a moderate 4.8% slope to the beach.
These properties address functional requirements for both permanent and secondary residence needs. The 2-3 bedroom configurations accommodate small families or couples requiring guest space. The inclusion of private terraces and solarium areas extends living areas outdoors, addressing the desire for indoor-outdoor Mediterranean living. Storage rooms in the underground parking provide practical solutions for seasonal storage requirements.
Currently under construction, this development represents a planned residential environment with defined completion timelines. The project follows a structured construction methodology typical of contemporary Mediterranean multi-family buildings. The building status indicates progress beyond initial planning, with architectural and engineering specifications finalized. The project includes pre-installation of modern systems and infrastructure.
This development does not offer detached villa configurations or extensive private garden plots. The properties are confined to apartment layouts within shared buildings, limiting privacy options compared to standalone residences. The project does not include on-site commercial facilities or retail spaces within the complex. Parking, while available in the underground facility, is not included in the base purchase price.
This development particularly suits buyers seeking a secondary residence with potential for personal use and rental income. The proximity to both Gibraltar (22km) and Málaga airports (76km) accommodates international owners requiring reasonable access from major European cities. The combination of beach access, golf courses, and year-round amenities appeals to those planning extended stays beyond typical holiday periods. The apartment format suits buyers seeking low-maintenance property ownership without the responsibilities associated with standalone villas.
The construction employs contemporary Mediterranean building techniques with an emphasis on thermal efficiency and durability. External walls feature reinforced concrete structures with thermal insulation layers designed to manage temperature fluctuations during summer months. The properties incorporate double-glazed windows with UV protection, reducing solar gain while maintaining natural light. Internal partitioning uses quality brickwork with acoustic insulation between units to ensure privacy in the multi-family setting. Kitchen areas come fitted with mid-range appliances and countertops designed for regular use rather than occasional holiday occupation.
The development offers properties starting from €363,805 to €458,130, representing the mid-range segment for new construction in this part of the Costa del Sol. The 25% price range reflects variations in apartment sizes (123m² to 192m²), floor levels, and orientations within the buildings. Units with superior sea views or corner positions typically command premium pricing within this range. The price point positions this development below comparable properties in neighbouring Estepona but above similar offerings in more inland locations.
The development offers a living environment characterised by convenience and coastal access. Daily life here typically begins with easy access to local amenities, with supermarkets and pharmacies within a few minutes' walk. The proximity to Playa de la Chullera allows for regular beach visits without requiring car journeys, making spontaneous seaside activities practical. The urban context provides year-round services and community infrastructure, unlike more isolated coastal developments. The presence of multiple golf courses within a short distance adds recreational diversity for residents. The Mediterranean climate supports outdoor living for approximately five months of the year, with terraces and communal areas functioning as extended living spaces.
The development's location offers balanced access to both local and regional infrastructure. Within Manilva, residents can reach essential services on foot or via short drives, with supermarkets, pharmacies, and health centres within a 5km radius. The position between Estepona and Sotogrande provides access to more extensive shopping, dining, and service options within 15-20 minutes by car. Public transport consists of six bus lines with 36 stops in the immediate area, connecting to larger towns including Estepona and Marbella for those without regular vehicle access.
This map illustrates the development's advantageous positioning within Manilva's coastal zone. The property lies 0.5km from Playa de la Chullera, with the urban centre of Manilva situated to the north. The map shows how the development connects to the A7 coastal motorway approximately 5km north, enabling straightforward access to Estepona (east) and Sotogrande/Gibraltar (west). The close proximity to both Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa marina and multiple golf courses is visually evident.
Manilva occupies a strategic position within the western Costa del Sol, situated approximately midway between Estepona (to the east) and Sotogrande (to the west). This location places it within the municipality of Málaga province while maintaining close proximity to the border with Cádiz province. The area benefits from relative accessibility compared to more easterly Costa del Sol destinations, with less congested coastal roadways than the Marbella area. Manilva has historically served as a more established residential community than resort-focused neighbours.
The nearest beach, Playa de la Chullera, lies just 0.5km from the development, accessible within a 5-10 minute walk. Additional beaches including La Duquesa (2.4km) and Sabinillas Blue Flag beach (3.1km) provide variety within short walking or brief driving distances. For golf enthusiasts, Finca Cortesín Golf Club sits 3.3km away, with Golf Academy Albayt Resort (4.7km) and Estepona Golf (5.4km) offering additional options within a 10-minute drive. Gibraltar Airport stands 22km distant, while Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is 76km away.
