The complex includes communal and heated indoor pools, a gym, sauna and 24-hour security. Completed in 2024, the property is delivered fully furnished with marble flooring and central heating. Shops, pharmacies and the beach are within walking distance, and Málaga Airport lies roughly 25 km away.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment is located in the urban core of La Cala de Mijas, approximately 300-400 metres from Playa de La Cala - El Torreón and Playa de La Butibamba. A supermarket sits about 400 metres away and a pharmacy under 300 metres. The setting is coastal and built-up, with amenities accessible on foot. Fuengirola train station is around 6 km away and Málaga Airport approximately 25 km.
The layout combines two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living-kitchen arrangement across 114 m², with a 37 m² terrace oriented south-east. Facilities include central heating, double glazing, fitted wardrobes, a laundry room and wheelchair-accessible design. Communal amenities cover a heated indoor pool, outdoor pool, gym, sauna and jacuzzi, with 24-hour security and gated access. One parking space is included.
Construction is completed, with delivery indicated as 2024. The property is a ground-floor unit in a gated residential community. Its condition is recorded as excellent, with the interior delivered fully furnished and the kitchen partially fitted. As the building phase has finished, no construction-period variables such as phased payments or delivery delays apply to this unit.
The property offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms within 114 m²; no additional bedrooms or private outdoor pool are present. Parking is limited to one carport space. The pool, gym, sauna and jacuzzi are communal facilities rather than private ones. The listing notes no private garden; outdoor space consists of the private terrace and communal garden areas.
This property aligns with several recognisable situations. Buyers seeking a move-in-ready coastal home without a construction phase will find the completed 2024 delivery and furnished interior relevant, as it removes waiting time and fit-out coordination. The walkable setting suits those who prefer not to use a car daily: beach, supermarket, pharmacy and numerous restaurants are within a few hundred metres. The ground-floor, wheelchair-accessible layout and lift-free access to the terrace and gardens serve buyers with mobility considerations or those planning longer-term occupation into later life. Central heating and a heated indoor pool make the residence practical for winter residence, distinguishing it from purely summer-oriented stock, relevant for full-time relocation or extended stays between seasons. The configuration also fits buyers wanting a second home with letting potential outside the high season, given the twelve-month amenity set and the year-round demand profile of the Mijas Costa rental market. The single parking space and two-bedroom layout set a practical ceiling: households requiring three or more bedrooms, a private pool or multiple vehicles would need to look elsewhere. The immediate proximity to the town centre means some street-level activity and summer-period footfall should be expected.
The interior specification is documented at a consistent finish level. Flooring throughout is marble, and the property is delivered fully furnished, including the guest room. Windows are double glazed, and the kitchen is partially fitted in an open-plan arrangement connected to the living area, with a separate laundry room. Fitted wardrobes are installed in the bedrooms. Technical systems include central heating, a feature not universally present in coastal apartments of this segment, supporting winter use. The two bathrooms are finished in modern materials, consistent with the 2024 completion date shown in the photographic record. The communal areas extend the specification: a heated indoor pool, outdoor communal pool, gym with cardiovascular and weight equipment, sauna and jacuzzi, set within a landscaped communal garden. Security infrastructure comprises 24-hour personnel, surveillance cameras and gated access, with one carport parking space allocated to the unit. The overall picture is one of a completed, immediately usable residence with amenity provision that goes beyond a standard holiday apartment, though the exact appliance brands, energy certificate rating and community fee schedule should be verified in the purchase documentation.
The property is listed at €525,000 for a completed, fully furnished two-bedroom, two-bathroom ground-floor apartment of 114 m² with a 37 m² terrace and one parking space. Within La Cala de Mijas, comparable new developments start from approximately €482,400 at Vission Hills, €496,000 at Almare and €676,000 at Cala Serena Sun, placing this unit in the middle of the local price range. The price reflects the completed status, included furniture and the communal facilities such as the heated indoor pool, gym and sauna. Availability is immediate, as construction finished in 2024.
Daily life at this address is organised around walkability. The beach, a supermarket, a pharmacy and a dense cluster of restaurants and cafés, 26 restaurants and 15 cafés within a two-kilometre radius, sit within a short walking radius, which reduces dependence on a car for routine errands. The ground-floor position and wheelchair-accessible design make movement between the terrace, garden and communal facilities straightforward. The residence functions as a year-round base rather than a purely seasonal one. Central heating, a heated indoor pool and double glazing extend comfortable use through the winter months, when average temperatures range around 14°C, while the roughly 3,889 hours of annual sunshine and a five-month swimming season define the summer rhythm. The south-east orientation places morning sun on the 37 m² terrace, with views extending across sea, mountains and golf course. The surrounding neighbourhood balances tourism with permanent residence. Ten hotels and around 2,131 tourist beds operate in the area, meaning the district is noticeably busier in July and August and quieter outside the high season. Two health centres serve the locality, and the broader municipality counts 15 primary schools and 10 secondary schools within reach, which supports non-seasonal occupation. Four public transport lines and roughly 50 stops connect the area to Fuengirola and surrounding districts, and the Cercanías rail terminus at Fuengirola, 6 km away, links to Málaga city and the airport.
La Cala de Mijas operates as a functioning town rather than a resort enclave. Within a two-kilometre radius, residents have access to two pharmacies, six banks, 26 restaurants and 15 cafés, alongside a primary school in the immediate vicinity and a wider municipal network of 15 primary and 10 secondary schools. Two health centres serve the locality, and the nearest hospital lies approximately 12 km away. The rhythm of the area shifts with the calendar. Summer months bring the tourist population associated with roughly 2,131 hotel beds, increasing activity around the beachfront and central streets; the remainder of the year is quieter and more residential in character. The weekly market and the seafront promenade between El Torreón and La Butibamba function as year-round anchors of daily life. Transport infrastructure is structured around the A-7 coastal motorway and the N-340, with Fuengirola's Cercanías station 6 km to the east providing rail access to Málaga and the airport. Four bus lines and approximately 50 stops cover local circulation. For recreation beyond the beach, Polideportivo de La Cala sits 600 metres away, padel and tennis clubs within 2.4-2.8 km, and the nearest EV charging point at 3.6 km.
The map shows the property's position in the built-up core of La Cala de Mijas, with the bay and its three beaches immediately south. Markers indicate the supermarket, pharmacy, sports centre and golf courses within the wider radius, along with road links toward Fuengirola, Marbella and Málaga Airport.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
La Cala de Mijas occupies the central section of the twelve-kilometre Mijas Costa strip, positioned between Fuengirola to the east and Marbella to the west, both roughly a fifteen-minute drive. This placement gives the town a dual relationship: the services of a mid-sized urban centre, Fuengirola, with its rail terminus, hospital access and shopping, are close at hand, while Marbella and Puerto Banús lie westward along the coast. The distance of about 24-25 km to Málaga Airport is a practical mid-point between the eastern Costa del Sol towns and those west of Marbella. Within Mijas municipality, the hillside village of Mijas Pueblo sits inland at higher elevation, offering a contrasting, more traditional environment.
Distances from the property are measured as follows. Beaches: Playa de La Cala - El Torreón approximately 312 metres on the closest alignment (1.6 km by road), Playa de La Cala - La Butibamba about 411 metres, and Playa de Las Doradas roughly one kilometre. A supermarket lies 409 metres away and a pharmacy 284 metres, supporting daily errands on foot. The nearest hospital is approximately 12 km away, with two health centres closer at hand. Golf options within a short drive include El Chaparral Golf Club (1.7 km), Cerrado del Águila Golf (2.1 km) and Santana Golf (3.4 km). Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly 24-25 km, and Gibraltar Airport approximately 72 km. Marinas at Cabopino (6.2 km) and Fuengirola (6.5 km) provide additional mooring and dining infrastructure.

The climate data for La Cala de Mijas records an annual average temperature of 18.5°C, with monthly averages ranging from approximately 14°C in winter to 26°C in summer. Historical sunshine totals reach roughly 3,889 hours per year, among the higher figures for the Iberian Peninsula. The sea temperature supports a swimming season of approximately five months at or above 20°C, generally running from late May into October. The site sits at approximately 55 metres above sea level, with a moderate gradient of about 3.4% toward the beach, noticeable on foot but not steep. This low coastal elevation means mild winter nights relative to inland Andalusia, while the maritime influence moderates summer peaks. The setting between the coastline and the Mijas foothills provides the mountain views recorded from the property, and the surrounding landscape combines built-up seafront with nearby golf-course greenery and hillside terrain within a short drive.

Within La Cala de Mijas itself, three comparable developments frame the local price structure. Vission Hills starts from approximately €482,400 and Almare from around €496,000, both below this property's €525,000 listing, while Cala Serena Sun begins at roughly €676,000. The price differences reflect position within the town, view corridors and amenity packages; this unit's mid-range placement corresponds with its completed status, full furnishing, heated indoor pool and direct walking access to the town centre and beach. Viewed across the wider Mijas Costa and central Costa del Sol corridor, La Cala de Mijas occupies a middle position between the higher-density urban environment of Fuengirola, where apartment pricing is generally lower but building density greater, and the gated golf-estate and frontline segments of Marbella and La Zagaleta to the west, where entry prices rise substantially. Calahonda and Riviera del Sol, immediately west, offer similar coastal product often at slightly lower price points but with greater car dependence for daily amenities. The town's distinguishing characteristics are its walkable scale, the concentration of roughly 2,131 tourist beds supporting rental demand, and its transport position: roughly 24-25 km from Málaga Airport and 6 km from the Fuengirola rail terminus. Recorded property transactions in the area total around 3,800, indicating an active resale and letting market. For buyers comparing across the region, the practical trade-off at this address is immediate coastal walkability against the somewhat higher summer-season activity that accompanies a functioning tourist town.
