Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment stands on the marina front in Garrucha, a working fishing town on the Almería coast. The beach and promenade are a few metres away on foot, and shops, cafés, restaurants, a gym and a medical centre are reachable within roughly a one-minute drive or a short stroll. Mojácar, Vera Playa, Turre and Los Gallardos lie in the wider surroundings.
The layout provides three bedrooms and two full bathrooms across 101 m², suitable for families, couples or buyers seeking extra space. The living and dining area receives natural light from its southeast orientation and opens onto an 8 m² terrace. A separate kitchen, utility room and additional storage room cover practical household needs. The property is delivered fully furnished.
This concerns an existing apartment completed in 1970, not a new-build development. The construction status is key-ready, meaning the home can be occupied directly after purchase. Delivery dates and completion figures serve as indication; buyers should verify the current condition of a building of this age through an independent technical inspection.
The property does not include a private pool, garden, private parking space or communal leisure facilities according to the available data. It is an apartment in a 1970 building, so construction dates and installation ages are relevant considerations. No energy performance details are stated in the data. Refuse fees amount to €205.60 per annum. Buyers should verify community fees and building maintenance status.

This apartment fits several recognisable situations. A family needing three bedrooms and two bathrooms within a walkable town will find the layout and the nearby schools of daily life, pharmacy, medical centre, supermarkets, practical. Couples planning to relocate permanently benefit from the year-round character of Garrucha, where services stay open outside the summer season. Buyers seeking a holiday home without car dependency can walk to the beach, restaurants and shops within minutes. Investors may consider the waterfront position and the furnished condition relevant for rental use, subject to local licensing rules. The lift and adapted access make the property suitable for older residents or those planning for reduced mobility over time. It suits less well buyers who want a private pool, a garden, designated parking or a modern new-build finish; a 1970 building has different technical characteristics than recent construction. Buyers focused on large terraces or panoramic sea views from every room should also assess the property in person, since the terrace measures 8 m² and the layout reflects its period. In short, the apartment fits buyers who rank location, walkability and interior space above resort-style facilities.
The apartment dates from 1970, which places it in an era of solid masonry construction common along the Almería coast. The interior images show a functional finish: a narrow kitchen with a dining table, a twin bedroom with wooden beds, a bathroom with sink, toilet, bidet and mirror, and a living room opening onto the balcony with a view. The property is delivered fully furnished, including furniture, which shortens the move-in process. The separate kitchen is fully equipped and connects to a utility room used for laundry and storage; a separate storage room adds further capacity. Technical connections run on mains water and mains electricity. The building itself provides a lift and adapted access for people with reduced mobility, a feature not always present in buildings of this age. Because the completion year is 1970, buyers are advised to commission an independent technical survey covering electrical wiring, plumbing, windows and the roof condition of the building. No energy performance certificate details are included in the available data. Overall, the finishing level is practical and liveable rather than newly renovated, and the price should be weighed against potential future refurbishment costs.
The apartment has a fixed asking price of €239,000, offered as an existing home rather than as part of a price-list development. At 101 m² of constructed space with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the price equates to roughly €2,370 per square metre, excluding terrace area. The property is sold fully furnished, which affects the total cost picture for buyers comparing it with unfurnished alternatives. The construction status is key-ready, so no waiting period applies between purchase and occupancy. Annual refuse fees are stated at €205.60. Buyers should request community fees, IBI and any planned building works before finalising a budget.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around the marina and the seafront. The front door opens onto the harbour area, where the morning routine can include a walk around the marina, a coffee overlooking the water or fresh seafood at one of the local restaurants. The beach and the promenade lie a few metres away, so evening walks or a morning swim require no car. The southeast-facing terrace of 8 m² catches the early and midday sun, making it a practical spot for breakfast or reading through most of the year. Inside, the 101 m² layout separates functions clearly: a living and dining area with natural light, a kitchen with its own dining table and a utility room for laundry and storage, and three bedrooms served by two full bathrooms. The building has a lift and adapted access, which matters for older residents or buyers planning long-term use. Everyday errands are short: supermarkets, a pharmacy, cafés, shops, a gym and a medical centre are all within easy walking distance or a one-minute drive. Because Garrucha is a year-round town rather than a seasonal resort, bakeries, banks and services remain open in winter, which distinguishes the daily rhythm from purely tourist areas along the coast.
The surroundings combine a working harbour with the facilities of a small coastal town. The beach is approximately a one-minute drive away and in practice reachable on foot from the marina front, as is the promenade that runs along the seafront. Shops and everyday services also lie about one minute away by car, meaning most errands can be done without starting the engine. Supermarkets, a pharmacy, cafés, restaurants, a gym and a medical centre are all listed in the immediate area. The marina itself functions as the social centre of the town: the harbour, the seafood restaurants and the seafront promenade structure much of local life. For wider exploration, Mojácar, with its hillside old town, plus Vera Playa, Turre and Los Gallardos are all nearby. Golfers can reach Desert Springs and Valle del Este, two recognised courses in the region. Public transport options are limited in this part of Almería, so a car is useful for regional trips, although daily life around the apartment itself does not require one. The nearest larger transport hub is the airport of Almería, from which the coastal towns of this stretch are accessible by road.

Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Garrucha occupies a coastal position in the province of Almería, east of the better-known Costa del Sol and part of the quieter Costa de Almería. The town functions as a local centre between Mojácar to the north and Vera Playa to the south, with Turre and Los Gallardos slightly inland. Compared with the high-density resort strips further west, this stretch of coast retains a more Spanish, year-round character, with lower property prices and less seasonal fluctuation. Within this context, the marina-front position of the apartment places it at the most walkable point of the town.
Distances stated in the data are travel times by car unless indicated otherwise. The beach and the shops both lie about a one-minute drive from the apartment, and in practice both are within walking distance given the marina-front position. The promenade, harbour, restaurants, cafés, supermarkets, pharmacy, gym and medical centre form part of the immediate neighbourhood. For regional trips, Mojácar, Vera Playa, Turre and Los Gallardos are the surrounding towns, reachable by road via the A-350 and N-340a network. Golf courses at Desert Springs and Valle del Este are in the wider area. Public transport in this part of the coast is limited, so a car is practical for excursions, whilst daily errands around the apartment can be done on foot. Straight-line and road distances differ; actual driving distances may be longer than indicated times suggest under seasonal traffic.
Garrucha sits at sea level on the Mediterranean coast of Almería, one of the driest and sunniest provinces of Spain. The flat terrain around the marina and promenade makes walking easy, without the hills that characterise nearby Mojácar Pueblo. The southeast orientation of the living area and terrace means the outdoor space receives morning and midday sun, which extends the usable season of the terrace beyond the summer months. The local climate is known for mild winters and hot, dry summers, with sea breezes moderating temperatures along the waterfront. For residents, this translates into a long season for terrace use, beach visits and outdoor living; swimming in the Mediterranean is comfortable from late spring to early autumn. No specific elevation or rainfall figures are included in the available data, so buyers seeking exact climate statistics should consult regional weather records for the Almería coast.

The beach lies a few metres from the apartment, with the promenade connecting the marina to the sandy stretches of the Garrucha seafront. The town is known for its working fishing port and its seafood restaurants, which operate year-round. Recreational options within walking distance include harbour walks, the promenade and beach days without any driving. For golfers, two recognised courses are located in the region: Desert Springs and Valle del Este, both within easy driving distance. The gym listed among nearby amenities offers indoor sports options. Wider recreation includes day trips to Mojácar with its hillside old town and beaches, and to the naturist and family beaches of Vera Playa. No private pool or sports facilities belong to the apartment itself, so water-based recreation takes place in the sea or at municipal facilities. The combination of beach, harbour and promenade within a short walk defines the leisure pattern of this location.

Within the Costa de Almería, Garrucha occupies a distinct position among its neighbours. Mojácar, a few kilometres north, splits into the hillside old town and the beach strip of Mojácar Playa; property there carries higher price tags due to stronger international demand and views from the elevated village. Vera Playa, to the south, offers large urbanisations, naturist beaches and newer-build apartments, typically at price points comparable to or above this asking price, but often further from a genuine year-round town centre. Turre and Los Gallardos lie inland, where villas and town houses provide more land for the money, though with dependence on a car for the beach and services. Garrucha differs from all of these: it is a working fishing town with a year-round population, a functioning high street and a marina that anchors local life. For an apartment of 101 m² with three bedrooms and two bathrooms at €239,000, roughly €2,370 per square metre, the price sits below comparable Costa del Sol averages and competes directly with similar seafront stock in Mojácar, which usually commands a premium. The trade-off is the age of the building: 1970 construction against the newer developments of Vera Playa and Desert Springs. Buyers comparing this property with new-build alternatives should weigh the walkable town location and furnished condition against renovation potential and the absence of communal facilities such as pools or private parking. Compared with the wider Costa del Sol around Marbella and Estepona, this stretch of Almería remains substantially cheaper per square metre and less seasonal, with a stronger Spanish resident base.
