Alexandra's Dream comprises 22 contemporary townhouses situated in the El Chaparral area of Mijas, Costa del Sol. The development consists of three-bedroom residences with built areas of 210 m², distributed over multiple levels including a basement and a rooftop solarium. Construction is currently underway, with an indicative completion date scheduled for Q4 2027. The project is positioned within a suburban setting characterised by proximity to golf courses and the Mediterranean coastline, offering a combination of residential privacy and access to local infrastructure.
Alexandra's Dream enters a competitive market segment in Mijas, distinct from high-rise apartment developments like Elysea Suites (from €800,700) or compact villa projects. Its closest comparable in terms of typology and price point is Benjamin's Dream (from €999,950), another townhouse development in the same municipality. The key differentiator for Alexandra's Dream lies in the specific El Chaparral location, which offers direct adjacency to a golf course and a slightly more elevated position than coastal flatlands, potentially offering better views. Compared to properties in La Cala de Mijas town centre, this project offers more privacy and lower density but requires greater reliance on a vehicle for daily errands. The inclusion of a basement and solarium as standard features provides a total usable area that competes favourably with smaller detached villas in the same price bracket, offering a low-maintenance alternative to larger plot ownership.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The development is located in the El Chaparral district of Mijas, approximately 660 metres from the nearest coastline. The immediate environment is defined by a mix of residential properties and golf-oriented landscapes. Access to the N-340 and AP-7 motorway provides regional connectivity. The location is classified as car-dependent, with limited walkable amenities beyond immediate surroundings.
These townhouses cater to buyers seeking multi-level living spaces with defined areas for relaxation, entertainment, and potential home office use. The inclusion of a basement level allows for customisation such as a gym, cinema room, or storage. Private outdoor space is provided via terraces and a rooftop solarium, supporting outdoor living arrangements.
The project is under active construction by developer Alba. The architectural approach follows contemporary Mediterranean design principles, prioritising open-plan layouts and natural light. The indicative delivery in Q4 2027 means buyers should anticipate a construction period of approximately three years from the current date, subject to standard building timelines.
The development does not include private pools as standard; a communal pool serves the community. A plunge pool is listed as an optional addition for the solarium. The 7 m² plot size cited refers to the immediate private footprint, with outdoor living primarily conducted on terraces and roof spaces. The location's car-dependent classification indicates that daily errands and broader mobility require a vehicle.
This project aligns with buyers who prioritise volume and vertical space over a large ground-level garden. The layout suits households requiring three bedrooms, where the primary suite serves as a distinct retreat and the additional bedrooms accommodate family or regular guests. The basement level is particularly relevant for those with specific hobbies or the need for a dedicated utility zone that does not encroach on the main living areas. The location and timeline make this suitable for buyers planning a relocation or second-home purchase with a medium-term horizon, aligning with the 2027 completion date. It fits a lifestyle where the car is the primary mode of transport, and the daily routine involves short drives to the beach, supermarkets, or restaurants. The setting may not suit those seeking walkable urban density or immediate beachfront access without a vehicle. The design ethos leans towards a modern, low-maintenance aesthetic, appealing to those who prefer clean architectural lines over traditional Spanish styling.
The developer, Alba, positions Alexandra's Dream within the contemporary design segment. The materials palette emphasises modern aesthetics: floor-to-ceiling glass panels, glass balustrades, and open-plan kitchen layouts. Kitchens are described as featuring bespoke cabinetry and premium finishes, designed to function as the heart of the home. The integration of fitted wardrobes and ensuite bathrooms in the primary suite indicates a focus on built-in convenience. Technically, the properties include pre-installation for air conditioning (hot and cold), essential for maintaining thermal comfort during the peak summer months when average temperatures can reach 25°C and often exceed 30°C. The Energy Efficiency rating is pending confirmation, a standard status for off-plan developments. The construction methodology follows standard Spanish residential norms for this segment, employing concrete structures with thermal insulation requirements dictated by current building regulations (CTE). The optional plunge pool on the solarium requires additional structural and hydraulic considerations, which would be integrated during the construction phase.
Pricing for Alexandra's Dream ranges from €995,000 to €1,259,000. This variance reflects differences in unit position, orientation, and potentially the inclusion of optional features such as the rooftop plunge pool. Within the context of Mijas real estate, this positions the project in the mid-to-high segment for townhouse properties. Comparable new-build townhouses in the immediate vicinity, such as Benjamin's Dream, list from €999,950, while apartments in developments like Elysea Suites start from €800,700. The price point reflects the built volume (210 m²) and the inclusion of a basement and solarium, features often absent in apartment alternatives. Availability is subject to the construction phase, with the total number of units limited to 22.
Alexandra's Dream is designed for a specific type of residential rhythm: one that balances indoor privacy with outdoor leisure. The vertical layout of these townhouses separates functions across distinct levels. The ground floor typically integrates the living, dining, and kitchen areas into a single open space, extending directly to a covered terrace. This configuration supports a fluid transition between indoor and outdoor environments, particularly relevant given the region's climate data indicating over 3,700 sunshine hours annually. The basement level introduces a non-conformist space, absent of natural light but offering substantial square footage. This area requires active definition by the owner—unlike the prescribed functions of the upper floors, the basement can serve as a utility zone, entertainment hub, or wellness area. The rooftop solarium represents the third key living zone. Positioned at the highest point of the structure, it functions as a private outlook, exposed to wind and sun, suitable for intermittent use rather than daily occupation. Daily life here likely involves a degree of internal circulation due to the stairs connecting these levels. The setting is suburban, meaning ambient noise levels are generally lower than in urban centres, but the area is not isolated. The proximity to El Chaparral Golf Club defines part of the immediate visual and acoustic environment. The location supports a lifestyle centred around the home as a primary hub, with excursions for dining, shopping, or beach visits requiring transport.
The El Chaparral area functions as a transition zone between the more densely built La Cala de Mijas and the residential expanses of Calahonda. The environment is predominantly residential, interspersed with golf courses and patches of native pine. The immediate vicinity includes the El Chaparral Golf Club, located roughly 860 metres away, contributing to a green, open backdrop. For daily necessities, a supermarket is situated within 730 metres, and a pharmacy is 610 metres away, placing basic amenities within a walkable or short drive radius. The broader context of Mijas municipality offers a dual character: the coastal strip is lined with commercial centres, chiringuitos, and beaches, while the village of Mijas Pueblo sits higher in the mountains, providing a contrast in atmosphere. Residents of Alexandra's Dream will likely navigate between these zones. The train station in Fuengirola, approximately 4.4 km away, provides commuter links to Malaga, though the primary transport mode for this location remains the private vehicle.
The map illustrates the project's position inland from the N-340 coastal road, embedded within the residential-golf landscape of El Chaparral. Note the proximity to the green zones of the golf course and the winding topography typical of this hillside sector of Mijas.
Mijas occupies a strategic central position on the Costa del Sol, situated between the urban hub of Fuengirola to the east and the resort town of Marbella to the west. La Cala de Mijas, the nearest town centre to Alexandra's Dream, has evolved from a traditional fishing village into a consolidated residential and tourist nucleus. It retains a commercial centre with supermarkets, banks, and a weekly market, offering a more contained scale than the urban sprawl of Marbella or Torremolinos. The location allows residents to access the amenities of these larger centres while residing in a lower-density peripheral zone.
Accessibility is defined by the coastal infrastructure. Malaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) is situated 23 km away, translating to a drive time of approximately 20-25 minutes via the AP-7 toll road or N-340. The nearest beaches, such as Playa del Charcón, are within 700 metres, accessible by a short drive or a walk of roughly 10-15 minutes. The locality offers a high density of golf options: El Chaparral Golf Club (867 m), Cerrado del Aguila (1.7 km), and La Cala Resort's courses are within a short driving radius. Healthcare access involves a local health centre within the municipality, while the main hospital complex is located approximately 12 km away, serving the western Costa del Sol. For marina facilities, Puerto Deportivo de Fuengirola is 5 km to the east, and Puerto Cabopino is 8.1 km to the west.

The site sits at an elevation of roughly 111 metres above sea level. This moderate altitude provides a degree of elevation over the immediate coastline, potentially offering sea views from the upper solarium levels while retaining proximity to the shore. The climate data reflects a typical Mediterranean profile: an average annual temperature of 17.9°C and a swimming season of approximately four months where water temperatures exceed 20°C. With 3,744 recorded sunshine hours per year, the climate strongly supports the outdoor living features integrated into the architecture, such as the solarium and terraces. The hillside setting implies some gradient in the immediate access roads, which is standard for this topography.

The coastal strip of Mijas holds five Blue Flag beaches, including Calahonda and El Chaparral. These beaches are characterised by dark sand and moderate waves, typically equipped with lifeguard services and amenities during the peak season. Playa El Chaparral is the closest significant beach area, known for its natural feel and proximity to the golf course. Beyond the beach, the municipality supports a high concentration of sports facilities (266 recorded), including padel clubs like Club de Pádel Cerrado del Águila (1.1 km). The combination of coastal access and golf facilities defines the primary recreational profile of the area.
