This duplex is situated on Carey Island in Sotogrande Marina, Cádiz, a residential area built around a network of canals connected to Puerto de Sotogrande. The property provides 140 m² of internal floor area over two floors, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, plus a south-facing covered terrace of approximately 51 m² overlooking the canals. A private mooring measuring 12 m by 4.5 m lies directly opposite the property. The building was completed in 2004 (indicative) and the home is ready for occupation. The asking price is €680,000. The estate includes a communal swimming pool, landscaped gardens, a garage space and a storage room.
Within the Sotogrande area, available comparables start at approximately €341,000 for Altara Alcaidesa, €423,000 for Atria and €638,000 for Adel San Roque. This duplex, at €680,000, sits at the top of that local range, and the differential is explained by two factors: its position inside the Marina canal district and the inclusion of a private mooring directly opposite the property. New-build units in the wider Sotogrande estates typically offer contemporary specifications and developer warranties but lack direct water access; this 2004 property trades age for a configuration, mooring at the doorstep, canal views from a south-facing terrace, that new developments in the area rarely replicate. Regionally, Sotogrande differs from the central Costa del Sol in character: it is lower-density, organised around golf, polo and sailing rather than high-rise tourism, and positioned at the western end of the coast near Gibraltar. The local market recorded 849 property transactions, indicating an active but not high-volume market compared with Marbella or Estepona. The provincial median income of €15,750 is modest, reflecting that Sotogrande's buyer base is largely national and international rather than local. For buyers weighing this property against new-build alternatives, the practical comparison is between a finished waterside home with an older building stock and ongoing marina-related fees on one side, and newer construction inland from the water with lower running costs but no mooring on the other.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The property lies in the canal district of Sotogrande Marina, 0.7 km from Puerto de Sotogrande and its amenities. Daily services are within reach: a supermarket at 2.0 km and a pharmacy at 1.2 km. The nearest beaches, Playa de la Chullera and Playa de La Alcaidesa, are approximately 6.3–6.5 km away. Gibraltar Airport is roughly 16–17 km away. Three golf clubs sit within 4.6 km.
The home suits a household seeking a waterfront configuration with direct mooring access, three bedrooms and three bathrooms across two floors, and a south-facing terrace of roughly 51 m². The layout places a fitted kitchen open to the living-dining area, with large windows onto the terrace. Communal facilities include a swimming pool and gardens along the canals.
This is a completed resale property, not a new-build development. Construction was completed in 2004 (indicative), meaning the building is approximately two decades old. No construction phase, payment schedule or off-plan delivery applies. The home is available for immediate occupation, subject to the standard purchase process in Spain.
The property is a duplex within an existing 2004 development; it offers no new-build warranties or developer guarantees. There is no private garden; outdoor space consists of the covered terrace. The nearest beach is approximately 6.3 km away, so it is not a beachfront home. Service charges, REM and mooring fees are payable to Puerto de Sotogrande and are ongoing costs.
This property matches several recognisable situations. A boat owner who wants a vessel moored directly opposite the living room will find the private 12 × 4.5 m mooring the central feature; few properties in the region offer this configuration. A household of four to five people needing three bedrooms and three bathrooms across two floors, with a garage space and storage room, will find the layout adequate. Buyers seeking a completed home without off-plan risk or construction timelines fall within its scope, as the property is ready for occupation. It also suits part-year residents who value walkable access to marina restaurants and cafés, since Puerto de Sotogrande is 0.7 km away. It does not match expectations of a beachfront home, the nearest beach is 6.3 km, nor buyers wanting a private garden, as outdoor space is limited to the covered terrace. Those requiring proximity to a hospital on foot should note the nearest facility is 12 km away. Golfers are well served, with Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande at 1.7 km, and families may factor in Sotogrande International School campuses within roughly 6 km. Budget-wise, it sits in the upper segment of local comparables.
As a property completed in 2004 (indicative), the home reflects the construction standards of that period in the Sotogrande Marina developments. Internal floor area measures 139.79 m² over two floors, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, a ratio that allows each main bedroom its own facilities. The fitted kitchen opens onto the living-dining room, and large windows connect the living area to the south-facing covered terrace of 50.89 m². Photographs show natural stone flooring in the dining area, a bathroom with bathtub, bidet and toilet, and a separate shower room with vanity unit. Technical equipment includes hot/cold air conditioning throughout. A garage space and a separate storage room are included within the estate. The communal areas comprise a swimming pool and landscaped gardens along the canals. No energy performance certificate details are recorded in the available data; buyers should request the current certificate and any community documentation regarding maintenance history of the 20-year-old building. Service charges, REM and the mooring fee are managed by Puerto de Sotogrande; the exact annual amounts should be verified during due diligence.
The asking price is €680,000 for a completed, immediately available duplex of 140 m² with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, a south-facing terrace of approximately 51 m², a garage space, a storage room and a private mooring of 12 m × 4.5 m. Within the wider Sotogrande area, comparable developments start from approximately €341,000 (Altara Alcaidesa) and €423,000 (Atria), rising to €638,000 (Adel San Roque). The price of this property reflects, among other factors, its marina location, the inclusion of a private mooring and its completed status. Buyers should budget additionally for service charges, REM and the mooring fee managed by Puerto de Sotogrande, plus standard purchase costs.
Carey Island forms part of the canal network of Sotogrande Marina, where residential streets are laid out along artificial waterways connected to the marina. Daily life here is oriented around the water: the private mooring directly opposite the property allows boat owners to keep a vessel within sight of the terrace. The marina itself, a seven-minute walk away, concentrates restaurants, cafés and chandleries along its quays. The immediate surroundings are residential and low-rise, with landscaped communal gardens running alongside the canals and a communal swimming pool within the estate. The property sits at roughly 3 m above sea level on flat terrain, so no slopes or staircases complicate access to the street. The rhythm of the area shifts with the seasons: summer brings sailing activity and visitors to the marina, while the winter months are considerably quieter. Practical errands require short drives, the supermarket at 2.0 km and the pharmacy at 1.1 km, but dining and coffee can be reached on foot via the marina. The polo season at Santa María Polo Club, 0.9 km away, adds summer activity. A car is useful for beaches, healthcare and the airport, though not strictly necessary for all daily needs given five public transport lines and 24 stops in the area.
The immediate environment is the canal network of Sotogrande Marina: flat, low-rise and residential, with waterways replacing through-traffic as the dominant feature. Within a 2 km radius the area counts 17 restaurants, two pharmacies and two banks, giving day-to-day provision without leaving the neighbourhood. Puerto de Sotogrande, at 0.7 km, functions as the social and commercial centre of the district. Healthcare is available through two health centres nearby, with the nearest hospital at 12 km. Education options are extensive for the region: 13 primary schools and 5 secondary schools, including Sotogrande International School's San Roque campus at 5.9 km and its main campus at 6.1 km. Public transport covers five lines with 24 stops, which supports car-free living for local trips, though a car remains practical for beaches, hospitals and Gibraltar Airport. Sports facilities are unusually concentrated: Santa María Polo Club at 0.9 km, Complejo Deportivo Zona Norte at 1.9 km, and three golf clubs within 4.6 km. An IONITY fast-charging station for electric vehicles lies 3.2 km away. Tourism pressure is moderate, with 7 hotels and 1,017 beds in the surrounding area.
The map shows the property's position on Carey Island within the canal grid of Sotogrande Marina, 0.7 km from the marina itself. Note the concentration of golf courses to the north and east, the beaches along the coast at 6+ km, and the Gibraltar border immediately to the south. The flat, waterside character of the immediate surroundings is visible in the canal layout.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Sotogrande occupies the western edge of the Costa del Sol, within the municipality of San Roque in Cádiz province, directly against the Gibraltar border. The Marina district, where this property lies, is the nautical quarter of a broader resort area that also includes the polo grounds, golf courses and the residential estates of La Reserva and Alcaidesa. Nearest towns of note are San Roque, Estepona to the east and La Línea de la Concepción to the south. The position favours Gibraltar Airport over Málaga for flights, and gives straightforward access westward into Cádiz province.
Straight-line distances frame the property's connections. Beaches: Playa de la Chullera 6.3 km, Playa de La Alcaidesa 6.5 km, La Duquesa 8.2 km. Airports: Gibraltar (GIB) approximately 17 km, Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) approximately 82 km. Golf: Real Club de Golf de Sotogrande 1.7 km, Club de Golf La Cañada 3.2 km, La Reserva Golf Club 4.6 km. Daily services: supermarket 2.0 km, pharmacy 1.2 km. Healthcare: hospital 12 km.

The area records an average annual temperature of 18.5 °C, with seasonal averages ranging from 12 °C to 25 °C, and approximately 3,836 hours of sunshine per year historically, figures consistent with the western Costa del Sol. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20 °C or above, spans roughly five months. The property sits at 3 m above sea level on essentially flat terrain, with no slope between the home and the canal-side streets. The Atlantic-influenced position near the Strait of Gibraltar tends to produce slightly milder summers and more wind than the eastern Costa del Sol, a factor relevant to sailing and to terrace use. Rainfall concentrates in the winter half-year, when the marina district is at its quietest.
