The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon, in context.

On the eastern edge of Casares, where the municipality meets Estepona, The Place is a collection of 38 apartments within the Alcazaba Lagoon resort. It is designed for buyers who want a lock-up-and-leave home on the western Costa del Sol without giving up outdoor space. Layouts run from two to four bedrooms, with built areas of 113 m² to 177 m² and prices from €629,000 to €1,515,000.

The terraces set it apart. One two-bedroom plan pairs 122 m² of interior with an 81 m² terrace, a ratio you would expect of a villa rather than an apartment. Ground-floor homes open onto large gardens with private plunge pools. On the top floors, a solarium with its own pool sits above the rooftops and looks out over the Mediterranean and the lagoon.

Elsewhere, an optional terrace jacuzzi is available. The developer specifies custom furnishings, en-suite bedrooms in the two-bedroom plans, storage rooms and one to three underground parking spaces depending on size. Residents have their own gym, spa and sauna.

Construction began in December 2024 and completion is scheduled for summer 2027. Thirteen of the 38 homes are already sold. Choice of floor and orientation is narrowing, though 25 homes remain for buyers who move now.

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. The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon currently sits in the Under construction band.

Indicative uplift modelled against comparable new-build completions

Roccabox analyst view

This is no longer a drawing-board purchase. Work started in December 2024 and handover is scheduled for summer 2027, which shortens the wait and removes much of the uncertainty of buying from plans. Thirteen of the 38 homes have sold. The garden units with plunge pools and the top-floor solariums are where choice will narrow first. On price, it pays to be clear-eyed. Headline figures sit well above the broad Costa del Sol median of €3,429 per m² and nearby resale apartments list between roughly €233,000 and €380,000. Those listings lack this specification and lagoon access and the market data carries low confidence. Buying now secures current pricing with the widest remaining choice. Holiday letting requires a licence and community approval.

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

25 of 38 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.

The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon 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 €5,566 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 €3,429/m².

The lagoon sets the rhythm of the day. Start with a morning swim or a paddle across its 14,000 m² of water, take lunch at the beach chiringuito, then play padel as the heat eases. Average temperatures run from a high of 21.5°C to a low of 14.9°C, mild enough to keep the terrace in use for most of the year.

Golf is unusually close. 1 km away, around two minutes by car. Azata Golf is four minutes away and Finca Cortesín is also nearby. 4 km off, about seven minutes by car. Playa de la Galera, Bahía Dorada and Arroyo Vaquero are each around ten minutes away.

Puerto Estepona is a 12-minute drive and Puerto Deportivo de la Duquesa is 14, both good for an evening on the waterfront.

The practicalities are covered. Mercadona and Aldi are six to seven minutes away and the Hospital de Alta Resolución de Estepona is five. Estepona's centre is about 15 minutes by car and Marbella around 40. Gibraltar Airport is roughly 50 to 65 minutes away.

Residency planning for non-EU buyers

Spain's property-based Golden Visa route closed to new applicants on 3 April 2025. Non-EU buyers acquiring property at this value still have residency routes — non-lucrative visa, digital-nomad visa, and case-specific options — depending on circumstances. We introduce regulated immigration counsel before any commitment.

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 The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon a good investment compared to the local resale market?

The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon 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 The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon?

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 The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon 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 The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon from Málaga airport?

Approximately 77 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, The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon 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.
