This completed apartment is situated in Los Álamos, the western coastal district of Torremolinos in the province of Málaga. The property offers 124 m² of built space with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, completed in 2022 (indicative). The beach at Playa de los Álamos lies approximately 837 metres away on flat terrain. The location combines urban services within walking distance with a commuter rail station at the district itself. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport is roughly four kilometres away in a straight line. The residence forms part of a complex with communal pool, gardens and a children's playground, and includes a parking space and storage room.
Within the wider Costa del Sol market, this property occupies a different segment from the newer off-plan developments used as comparables. Aquamar in Torre del Mar (from €269,950), Lantana Residencial in Mijas (from €205,000) and Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona (from €269,000) all sit in eastern or western coastal municipalities with lower headline price points, but they involve waiting periods for construction and locations further from Málaga city and the airport. At approximately €5,890 per built square metre, this Los Álamos apartment prices at a premium reflecting three factors: the established Torremolinos address, the completed and furnished status with parking and storage included, and the transport position, a district train station, 18 bus lines and an airport four kilometres away. Regionally, Torremolinos functions differently from Marbella-Estepona in the west and the Mijas-Fuengirola belt in the centre. It is a denser, year-round municipality with permanent residents, documented schooling (13 primary and 9 secondary schools in the area) and healthcare within walking distance, which suits permanent relocation more directly than resort enclaves geared to seasonal occupation. The trade-offs are equally factual: aircraft proximity, summer visitor density driven by roughly 20,800 registered hotel beds, and a communal rather than private pool provision. Buyers comparing this property with eastern Costa del Sol alternatives should also weigh swimming season length and sunshine data, at 3,888 hours and a four-month sea-bathing window, conditions here are consistent with the broader Málaga coastline. The resale-classified status (completed 2022, indicative) places the transaction under ITP transfer tax rules rather than new-build VAT, a cost difference that depends on the applicable regional rate at purchase.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the Los Álamos district of Torremolinos, a consolidated urbanised coastal area west of the town centre. A train station (Los Álamos) is at the district itself, connecting to Málaga city and Fuengirola. Daily services, pharmacy at 284 metres, supermarket at 1.1 km, health centre at 266 metres, are reachable on foot. The beach is under one kilometre away with a 1% gradient, meaning no significant incline on the walking route.
The dwelling is configured for permanent or extended-stay living: three double bedrooms, one currently arranged as an office, two full bathrooms (en-suite with walk-in shower, family bathroom with bathtub), a kitchen with separate laundry room, and a covered terrace with sea, garden and pool views. Ducted air conditioning and heating serve the whole apartment. A private parking space with pre-installation for an EV charger and a 9.16 m² storage room are included.
Construction is complete; the property was delivered in 2022 (indicative) and is available immediately, subject to sale processes. The building has a lift. The unit is sold fully furnished and equipped. As a recently completed resale-classified dwelling, purchase costs fall under second-hand transfer rules (ITP) rather than new-build VAT and AJD, unless documentation states otherwise.
The property does not include a private pool; swimming facilities are communal within the complex. There is no private garden; outdoor space is limited to the covered terrace. Sea views are partial, combined with garden and pool outlook. No data is available on energy certification rating. Noise from aircraft flight paths may occur given the proximity to Málaga Airport (3.9 km straight-line). The listed price excludes notary, registry and transfer tax costs.
This property aligns with several recognisable buyer situations. A household relocating to the coast for work, Málaga city centre is reachable by train from Los Álamos station, and the airport at four kilometres supports frequent international travel, gains a base that functions without full car dependency. Families needing schooling and healthcare within the immediate area find both documented nearby, which is uncommon in more isolated coastal developments. Buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave second residence benefit from the communal maintenance structure (€151.70 monthly), the lift access, and an enclosed complex with pool and playground. The three-bedroom layout with one room already configured as an office suits remote or hybrid working arrangements, supported by ducted climate control for year-round occupancy. Purchasers prioritising immediate availability over a two-to-three-year off-plan wait will note the 2022 completion and furnished delivery. Conversely, buyers seeking a detached villa, private pool, large garden or a tranquil rural setting should note the urban character, the communal-only swimming facilities and the proximity of aircraft routes associated with the nearby airport. Summer visitor density in Los Álamos is another factor to weigh against the year-round service level the area provides.
The interior photographs show a contemporary finish level: a modern fitted kitchen open to a dining area, a living room with balcony access, fitted wardrobes with sliding doors in the circulation areas, and a sectional-sofa living arrangement. The specification as documented includes ducted air conditioning and ducted heating, a system type generally associated with mid-to-upper segment installations, distributing conditioned air through ceiling vents rather than split units. The bathrooms are differentiated: an en-suite with walk-in shower and a second bathroom with bathtub, which serves households mixing generations. Three double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes provide storage without additional furniture requirements. The kitchen includes a separate laundry room, separating utility functions from the living space. Exterior joinery and terrace details indicate recent construction standards consistent with a 2022 delivery (indicative). The parking space carries pre-installation for an electric vehicle charger, a conduit and capacity provision rather than a fitted charging point, meaning the owner can install a wallbox after purchase, subject to community approval. The 9.16 m² storage room addresses a common gap in apartment living on the coast, where bicycles, beach equipment and seasonal items require secure space. Delivery is fully furnished and equipped, which reduces initial set-up costs but means the buyer accepts the existing interior scheme. No energy performance certificate data was provided in the source material, so an efficiency rating cannot be stated here; prospective buyers should request this document during due diligence.
The advertised price is €730,000. Given 124 m² of built area, this equates to approximately €5,890 per square metre, which positions the property above comparable new-build coastal projects listed elsewhere on the coast (Aquamar in Torre del Mar from €269,950; Lantana Residencial in Mijas from €205,000; Etherna Homes 2 in Estepona from €269,000), reflecting the established Torremolinos-first-line location and completed status. Inclusion of furniture, equipment, parking space and storage room affects the effective comparison. Recurring costs are documented: community fees of €151.70 per month and IBI plus refuse collection of €1,624.20 per year. Purchase taxes and notarial costs are additional.
Los Álamos functions as a year-round urban neighbourhood rather than a seasonal resort enclave. The daily rhythm here is structured around walking distances: the pharmacy at 284 metres and a health centre at 266 metres sit practically at the doorstep, a supermarket lies 1.1 km away, and the beach promenade at Playa de los Álamos is a flat ten-to-twelve-minute walk. Within a two-kilometre radius, the environment data records 33 restaurants, 8 cafés and 5 pharmacies, indicating a fully serviced commercial fabric that operates beyond the summer months. The presence of 13 primary schools and 9 secondary schools in the area supports a resident population, not only a tourist flow, which affects how the neighbourhood feels between October and April. Mobility is a defining characteristic. Los Álamos station is in the district itself, with La Colina 700 metres away and Torremolinos 2.8 km further along the Cercanías line; 18 public transport lines and 50 stops serve the area. A car is useful for reaching golf courses or Málaga's outer districts but is not essential for daily errands. The tourist layer is substantial, 52 hotels and roughly 20,800 beds are registered in the vicinity, so summer months bring increased visitor density around the beach and promenade. Outside that period, the area reverts to a quieter residential tempo. For an owner, the apartment's orientation (east, south and west exposures) allows morning light on the terrace and afternoon sun in the main living spaces, with the covered section usable during warmer midday hours.
The immediate environment combines residential blocks with hotel infrastructure. With 52 hotels and approximately 20,800 beds registered in the area, the district has a service economy that remains active year-round, restaurants, cafés and shops do not close wholesale in winter as occurs in some seasonal enclaves. The health infrastructure is notably close: a health centre at 266 metres and five pharmacies within two kilometres. For households with children, 13 primary schools and 9 secondary schools are recorded in the surrounding area. Recreational facilities within practical range include padel courts at 1.2 km, a karting circuit at 1.7 km, a children's swimming pool facility at 1.0 km, and three golf courses: Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez (1.4 km), Club de Golf Málaga Parador (1.6 km) and Club de Golf de Guadalhorce (7.2 km). EV charging is available at Málaga Supercharger (1.2 km), Powerdot (1.8 km) and Shell (1.9 km). Aircraft noise deserves mention: at 3.9 km from the runway, some flight-path overflight occurs depending on wind direction and operating patterns. The terrain is flat, 10 metres above sea level with a 1% slope toward the beach, which makes walking and cycling straightforward for all ages.
The map shows the property in Los Álamos with the beach to the south, the commuter rail line running parallel to the coast, and Málaga Airport a short distance north-west. Golf courses, the hospital and the train stations are marked to illustrate the walking and short-drive radius that defines daily life here.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Los Álamos occupies the western edge of Torremolinos, bordering the Guadalhorce river mouth and the approach corridor to Málaga Airport. Within the regional hierarchy, it sits between two poles: Torremolinos town centre (2.8 km east) with its full urban services, and Málaga city (roughly 12 km north-east), reachable by commuter rail in under 20 minutes. To the west lie Benalmádena and Fuengirola along the same rail line. This position makes it one of the most airport-accessible residential districts on the entire Costa del Sol, at the cost of proximity to flight paths. The district's character is urban-coastal rather than resort-exclusive.
Distances from the property, measured in straight-line terms unless stated: Playa de los Álamos at 837 metres is the nearest beach, followed by Playa Campo de Golf at 1.4 km and 1.9 km. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (AGP) lies approximately 4 km away, a transfer time of roughly 10 minutes by car or one Cercanías stop from Los Álamos station. Torremolinos town centre is 2.8 km by rail; Málaga city is roughly 15–20 minutes by train. Marinas: Marina Real Club Mediterráneo at 9.5 km. Golf: three courses within 7.2 km as listed. Gibraltar Airport is 95 km; Alicante-Elche 391 km. Supermarket at 1.1 km, hospital facility at 266 metres, pharmacy at 284 metres.

The location records approximately 3,888 sunshine hours per year (historical) and a mean annual temperature of 18.5°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C to 26°C. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures at or above 20°C, spans roughly four months, concentrating comfortable sea bathing between June and September. Elevation is 10 metres above sea level with a 1% gradient toward the coast, eliminating any stair or incline barrier between the apartment and the beach. The flat, low-lying coastal position means sea breezes moderate summer heat, while winters remain mild enough for terrace use on many days. The covered terrace extends outdoor usability during the hotter midday hours and occasional winter rain. Orientation across east, south and west exposures distributes sunlight through the day: morning light in east-facing rooms, sustained midday and afternoon sun on the main facade and terrace. The climate data supports year-round residence rather than purely seasonal use.

Playa de los Álamos, at 837 metres, is the primary bathing beach, a long, urban sandy stretch backed by the promenade with chiringuitos and beach bars typical of the Torremolinos coast. Within the wider reach, Playamar holds a Blue Flag designation, the one recorded in the immediate area. Playa del Lido at 2.4 km adds variety. For golfers, the density of courses is high by regional standards: Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 1.4 km and Club de Golf Málaga Parador at 1.6 km are both walkable or a short drive, with Club de Golf de Guadalhorce at 7.2 km as a third option. Sports facilities include Pádel La Colina (1.2 km), Kart&Fun Málaga (1.7 km) and Vals Sport Churriana (2.4 km). Within the complex itself, residents have a communal pool, a children's pool and a playground, which covers daily recreational needs without leaving the grounds. Birdwatching is available at the Observatorio de Aves Marinas, 3.5 km away.
