Casares Bay, in context.

Casares Bay is a boutique development of just nine apartments on Casares Costa, positioned between Estepona and the white village of Casares beside the Doña Julia golf course. It is aimed at buyers seeking a second home or year-round base within walking distance of the beach — the shoreline sits roughly 660 metres away, a five-minute stroll.

The scheme offers two- and three-bedroom apartments from 90 to 136 m², including ground-floor units with private gardens, duplexes and penthouses. Homes are priced from €487,000 to €595,000, each with underground parking and a storage room. Communal areas include a large pool, a lounge terrace and a roof solarium.

Construction is under way, with completion scheduled for Q2 2027. With four of the nine homes already sold, the remaining five represent a narrowing selection in an intimate, low-density community.

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. Casares Bay currently sits in the Under construction band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions

Roccabox analyst view

With construction already progressing towards Q2 2027 completion, Casares Bay carries less of the timing risk that early-stage launches present. Four of the nine homes have sold, leaving five in a genuinely low-density scheme — scarcity is real rather than manufactured. Pricing runs above the area's resale median of around €2,606 per m², reflecting new-build finishes, parking, storage and communal amenities that older stock in the vicinity typically lacks.

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

5 of 9 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.

Casares Bay 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 €5,411 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.

Casares Costa balances quiet coast with everyday convenience. A Lidl sits under 900 metres away, with Mercadona and pharmacies within three minutes' drive, and La Choza restaurant is barely 30 metres from the door. Doña Julia golf is a three-minute drive, with Finca Cortesín and Estepona Golf nearby. Puerto de la Duquesa marina is around five minutes away, and Estepona's high-resolution hospital eight minutes.

The climate is mild, averaging highs of 21°C and lows of 15.5°C across the year, supporting outdoor living for most of it. Gibraltar airport is roughly 56 minutes by car; Málaga is farther, near two and a half hours. One honest caveat: several sources note road noise from the nearby A-7 motorway, worth weighing when selecting a unit and orientation.

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 Casares Bay a good investment compared to the local resale market?

Casares Bay 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 Casares Bay?

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 Casares Bay 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 Casares Bay from Málaga airport?

Approximately 79 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, Casares Bay 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.
