Arrecife Fase 2, in context.

Arrecife Fase 2 is a 54-home apartment development in Casares Costa, on the stretch of coastline between Estepona and the Duquesa marina where the Costa del Sol quietens without losing its amenities. The second phase of an established scheme, it is already under construction and well into its sales cycle: of the 54 homes, 43 have sold, leaving eleven available.

The offer runs from two- and three-bedroom apartments to ground-floor homes with private gardens and penthouses with sea-view terraces and private jacuzzis. Built areas range from 112 to 134 m², each home with a garage and storage room. The southeast orientation and generous glazing are designed to draw daylight deep into the interiors.

Prices currently range from €398,000 to €720,000, with completion scheduled between June and September 2028.

The off-plan discount curve

The off-plan discount, stage by stage

Off-plan entry typically offers the largest pricing headroom at the earliest stages. The advantage narrows as construction progresses — at completion the unit is priced at market. Arrecife Fase 2 currently sits in the Under construction band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions

Roccabox analyst view

With construction underway and 43 of 54 homes already sold, Arrecife Fase 2 offers off-plan pricing without the uncertainty of a pre-launch scheme. Only eleven homes remain, and buyers securing now lock in 2025 pricing against a 2028 completion. At entry from €398,000, the pricing sits above the wider Casares resale median of roughly €3,382/m², reflecting new-build specification, coastal proximity and the scarcity of the final release.

Reserving early

Why buyers reserve at this stage

Personalisation window

Reserving during the Under construction phase gives buyers genuine input into layout, finishes and basement use ahead of handover, a window that closes as the build advances.

Scarcity and specification

11 of 54 units remain. The plot sizes, orientation and amenity package on this scheme are not easily replicated in the immediate resale stock.

Risk-managed entry

Spanish new-build buyers are protected by staged payments held under bank guarantee, ten-year structural warranty and full licence review. Roccabox brokers all of this through regulated counsel.

Market reality

The premium, contextualised

Useful context — not a substitute for unit-level valuation. Pricing data cross-referenced against live Costa del Sol market signals.

Arrecife Fase 2 is not priced against average Casares resale stock. It is a premium new-build product with the specification, plot quality and amenity package that the broader resale market typically does not match. At €3,554 per built m² the relevant question is whether the premium is justified against comparable new-build completions, not whether it beats the area's median of €3,381/m².

Common questions

Buying off-plan in Spain, answered

Straight answers to the questions our specialists field most. For anything else, the assistant above answers in real time.

Is Arrecife Fase 2 a good investment compared to the local resale market?

Arrecife Fase 2 is positioned as a premium new-build product with developer warranty, modern specification and limited supply. Comparable to the broader resale stock in Casares on price-per-m², the premium reflects new-build standards, plot quality and amenity package not typically available in the resale market. Our market analysts model the projected key-ready value on request.

What is the off-plan payment schedule in Spain?

Spanish off-plan purchases are typically staged: 10% on reservation (refundable holding deposit), a further 20% on signing the private purchase contract, and the remaining 70% on completion. Every euro paid before completion is held under bank guarantee — if the developer defaults, your money is refunded under Spanish law.

Can a non-resident get a mortgage to buy at Arrecife Fase 2?

Yes. Spanish banks routinely lend 60–70% loan-to-value to non-residents on properties at this value, over terms of 20–25 years at competitive rates. Roccabox introduces vetted non-resident mortgage brokers at no cost.

Does buying at Arrecife Fase 2 qualify for Spanish residency?

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025 under Organic Law 1/2025. However, other residency routes remain available depending on circumstances — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, work or family-based permits. Roccabox introduces regulated Spanish immigration counsel.

How far is Arrecife Fase 2 from Málaga airport?

Approximately 78 minutes' drive, with a direct route via the A-7 / AP-7 motorway.

What is included in the purchase price?

Price includes the unit as specified by the developer. Spanish purchase costs (VAT/IVA on new builds at 10%, AJD stamp duty at 1.2%, notary and registry around 1%, legal counsel typically 1%) sit on top of the headline price. The Roccabox team produces a personalised total-cost breakdown on request.

Can I personalise the property?

At the Under construction stage, Arrecife Fase 2 buyers can typically influence layout details, basement configuration, finishes and specification ahead of handover. The window narrows as the build progresses. Our specialist will walk you through what's still negotiable on each remaining unit.
