This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment is located in the El Ingenio area of San Pedro de Alcántara, within the Cortijo Blanco district of Marbella municipality, Málaga. Completed in 2023, the building contains only four apartments. The property has a living area of 74 m² and is offered fully furnished and key-ready at a fixed asking price of €330,000. Playa Canina Ventura del Mar lies approximately 0.2 km away as the crow flies, and the town centre of San Pedro de Alcántara is within walking distance. Local amenities within 2 km include restaurants, pharmacies, banks and cafés.
Against comparable new-build offerings along the Costa del Sol, this apartment occupies the mid-range. Aquamar in Torre del Mar starts from €269,950 and Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000, but both locations sit further from the Marbella, Banús core and its amenity density. Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona, with prices from €321,000, is the closest benchmark in price, though Estepona lies roughly 20 km further west, with longer transfer times to Málaga airport. The distinguishing factor here is position rather than size: at €330,000 for 74 m², about €4,460 per square metre, the buyer pays a premium per square metre compared with the comparables, in exchange for an address within walking distance of both the beach and San Pedro's centre, and 2 km from Puerto Banús. New-build apartments in Nueva Andalucía or frontline Marbella typically command materially higher per-square-metre figures, which frames this property as an entry point into the central Marbella municipality rather than a budget option. The product type also differs from the comparables. Aquamar, Lantana and Etherna are developments with phased delivery and price lists; this is a single, completed unit in a four-apartment building. That removes construction risk and delivery delay, but also removes any choice of floor, orientation or finish, the apartment is as it stands. Buyers comparing options should weigh the furnished, key-ready condition and 2023 construction against the larger floor plans and communal facilities that some purpose-built developments offer at similar budgets further from the coast's centre.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in El Ingenio, a low-rise residential pocket of San Pedro de Alcántara. The nearest beach, Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, is roughly 200 metres away in a straight line, with Playa de San Pedro about 1 km further along the coast. Puerto Deportivo José Banús lies 2 km away, and Marbella's municipal marina 8 km. The A-7 coastal road connects the area to Estepona and Marbella.
The layout serves two-person households or small families: two bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, two full bathrooms, and an open-plan kitchen with the living area. Daily needs are covered within a 2 km radius, including 9 pharmacies, 12 banks and numerous cafés. Ten public transport lines with 50 stops reduce dependence on a car for local trips.
Construction was completed in 2023, so the building is new but no longer off-plan. The apartment is key-ready and delivered fully furnished, meaning occupation or rental use can begin shortly after purchase. No further construction phases apply. Completion dates as stated are indicative and should be confirmed during the purchase process.
The property is an apartment, not a villa, with 74 m² of living space; there is no private garden and no plot. The data contains no information about a private pool, parking space, storage room, community pool, or communal fees; buyers should verify these points separately. The building has only four apartments, so communal facilities are limited by design. No sea view is documented.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a low-maintenance seaside base will find the two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout and furnished delivery practical: arrival can happen with suitcases rather than a container. The 74 m² footprint suits households of two, or two adults with occasional guests, families needing a third bedroom would have to look elsewhere. Buyers prioritising walkability benefit most. The combination of a 200-metre beach distance, flat terrain, and fifty public transport stops within the area means daily life can function without a car, which is relatively rare along this stretch of coast. Retired buyers or those with reduced mobility also benefit from the level ground and the absence of hills between the apartment and the shore. Investors evaluating rental use should note the location facts: walking distance to the beach and San Pedro centre, proximity to Puerto Banús, and a recently completed building. Vacation rental performance depends on licensing, seasonality and management, the data does not include a tourist licence, so this must be verified with the municipality. The property is less suitable for buyers seeking a private pool, a garden, panoramic views or a gated resort environment. Those priorities point towards villa developments in the hills rather than a four-apartment building in a built-up coastal neighbourhood. Equally, buyers wanting extensive on-site communal facilities will find the small-scale building offers little in that regard.
The building dates from 2023, which places it under current Spanish technical building code requirements, including modern insulation standards, ventilation and efficiency measures applicable at the time of construction. The interior photographs show a consistent contemporary finish: a bright open-plan living area, a white designer kitchen integrated with the dining space, and bathrooms fitted with shower enclosures and terrazzo-style tiling. Terrazzo is a durable, low-absorption material that performs well in humid bathroom environments. Both bedrooms include large fitted wardrobes, which is a practical storage solution in an apartment without a documented separate storage room. The condition is listed as excellent, consistent with a recently completed and furnished home; buyers should nonetheless verify the actual state during a viewing, as furniture and appliances are included in the sale. The south-facing orientation influences both comfort and running costs: main living spaces receive direct daylight through the middle of the day, supporting passive warmth in winter, while summer shading or air conditioning manages afternoon heat. No specific data is available on the installed climate systems, energy certification figures, or appliances, so these should be inspected on site and confirmed in documentation. Structural and communal aspects, the roof, façade, lift (if present) and shared entrances, fall under a community of owners comprising only four apartments. Small communities typically have low fees and simple decision-making, but maintenance responsibility is shared among few parties; the annual community costs are not stated in the data and should be requested from the seller.
The asking price is fixed at €330,000 for the complete apartment, delivered fully furnished and key-ready. This is a single existing home, not a price-list development, so no variation by unit type or floor applies. At 74 m² of living space, the price equates to roughly €4,460 per square metre. Because the property was completed in 2023, buyers acquire a recently built home without the waiting period associated with off-plan purchases. Additional purchase costs, transfer tax, notary and registry fees, are not included in the asking price and should be budgeted separately. Availability should be confirmed directly, as single properties can move quickly in this segment.
Daily life here is organised around the seaside rhythm of San Pedro de Alcántara. With the beach roughly 200 metres away in a straight line across flat terrain, a morning swim or an evening walk along the paseo marítimo requires no car. The gradient to the shore is about 2%, so the route is also manageable on foot or by bicycle for most residents. The flat, low-lying position, 2 m above sea level, reinforces this walkable character. Groceries, pharmacies and cafés are concentrated within 2 km, and the wider area counts 59 restaurants, 19 cafés and 9 pharmacies in that radius. The Blv. de San Pedro and the old town provide the everyday commercial backdrop, while Puerto Deportivo José Banús, 2 km away as the crow flies, adds marina-side dining and nightlife within easy reach. Inside the apartment, the open-plan kitchen and living area form the central living space, lit from a southerly orientation. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms mean the layout works for a couple with guests or for two adults sharing. The building's small scale, four apartments in total, limits lift traffic and communal interaction compared with larger resort-style developments. Sports facilities are nearby: Polideportivo San Pedro at 1.7 km, with additional centres at 2.0 and 2.1 km. Golfers reach Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Magna Marbella Golf, both 3.0 km away in a straight line. The swimming season runs about five months with water temperatures of 20°C or above, anchoring the outdoor calendar from late spring to early autumn.
The immediate neighbourhood combines residential calm with coastal accessibility. Within a 2 km radius, the area offers 59 restaurants, 19 cafés, 12 banks and 9 pharmacies, giving a dense everyday infrastructure that removes the need for long shopping trips. A dentist is located within the same radius. San Pedro de Alcántara's centre, with its weekly market and commercial streets, lies within comfortable walking or short driving distance. Public transport is well developed for a town of this size: 10 lines and 50 stops serve the area, connecting San Pedro with Marbella, Estepona and intermediate coastal towns. This makes car-free living feasible for routine trips, though journeys inland or to the airport remain easier by car. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport is approximately 48 km away in a straight line, and Gibraltar airport about 50 km; actual driving distances and times are longer. Sports and leisure infrastructure is close: Polideportivo San Pedro at 1.7 km, the Apolo centre at 2.0 km and a climbing facility at 2.1 km cover indoor training needs. For families considering schooling, The International School of Estepona lies 5.3 km away and the British International School 6.6 km, both reachable within a short drive. Electric vehicle owners can charge at the Marbella Supercharger, 5.1 km away, or at the Estepona Supercharger at 8.3 km. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint, 1.8 km distant, offers a nearby destination for walks.
The map shows the apartment's position between San Pedro de Alcántara's centre and the coastline, with Playa Canina Ventura del Mar just 200 metres to the south. Puerto Deportivo José Banús appears 2 km to the east, and the golf courses of Nueva Andalucía cluster 3 km inland. Distances shown are straight-line; road routes are longer.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
San Pedro de Alcántara occupies the coastal strip between Marbella's centre and Estepona, about 10 km west of Marbella and adjacent to Puerto Banús. The El Ingenio/Cortijo Blanco area sits on the northern, residential side of the coastal road, which keeps the neighbourhood quieter than the frontline developments while remaining within a few hundred metres of the shore. Within the western Costa del Sol, this positions the property closer to the Marbella-Banús core than to Estepona's newer developments, with the golf valley of Nueva Andalucía 3 km inland. Two international airports, Málaga and Gibraltar, sit at roughly equal straight-line distances of about 48 and 50 km respectively.
The property's strongest accessibility feature is the beach: Playa Canina Ventura del Mar is 0.2 km away as the crow flies, and the route is flat with a 2% gradient. Playa de San Pedro lies 1.0 km away and Playa Atalaya 4.1 km. For boating and marina life, Puerto Deportivo José Banús is 2.0 km in a straight line, while Marbella's Virgen del Carmen marina (8.0 km) and La Bajadilla (9.3 km) offer alternatives. Golf is well represented: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas and Magna Marbella Golf are both 3.0 km away, with The Range practice facility at 3.9 km. These are straight-line distances; actual road routes add some length. Regional access runs through the A-7 and AP-7 corridors. Malaga-Costa del Sol airport lies roughly 48 km in a straight line to the northeast, and Gibraltar airport approximately 50 km to the southwest, giving the unusual advantage of two international airports at comparable range. Alicante-Elche, at about 438 km, is not a practical option. Within the town itself, the 10 bus lines and 50 stops provide the public transport backbone for daily mobility.

The climate data points to a typical Mediterranean coastal regime: monthly average temperatures ranging from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual average of 19.0°C. For residents this translates into mild winters where heating needs are limited, and warm summers where proximity to the sea, 200 metres here, becomes the main comfort factor. The swimming season lasts about five months, during which sea water stays at or above 20°C, roughly from late May to early October. The elevation of 2 m above sea level and the 2% gradient to the beach mean the terrain is entirely flat, which shapes daily life: no climbs on foot routes, easy cycling, and straightforward access for all ages. Coastal proximity also moderates temperature extremes compared with inland Andalusia, and the sea breeze is a standard feature of summer afternoons. No rainfall figures are provided in the data, but the general pattern along this coast involves concentrated winter rainfall and dry summers, which keeps the outdoor calendar full for most of the year.

The beach offer is immediate. Playa Canina Ventura del Mar, a dog-friendly beach as its name indicates, lies 0.2 km away, effectively around the corner. Playa de San Pedro, 1.0 km away, is the town's main sandy beach with chiringuitos and full facilities along its paseo marítimo. Playa Atalaya, 4.1 km to the east, offers a quieter alternative. The specific Blue Flag status of individual beaches should be checked for the current season, as designations are reviewed annually. Golfers have three options within 4 km: Real Club de Golf Las Brisas (3.0 km) and Magna Marbella Golf (3.0 km) are established courses, while The Range (3.9 km) provides lessons and practice facilities. The density of courses in this corridor between San Pedro and Estepona is one of the defining characteristics of the western Costa del Sol. For organised sport, Polideportivo San Pedro (1.7 km) is the municipal sports centre, with the Apolo centre (2.0 km) and a climbing facility (2.1 km) nearby. Water-based recreation centres on Puerto Deportivo José Banús (2.0 km), one of the coast's most prominent marinas, offering berths, dining and people-watching in equal measure. The Mirador del Muelle de Honor viewpoint (1.8 km) completes the recreational map for evening walks.
