The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon
Project lifecycle
The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon, in context.
The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon is a gated residential development of 38 two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments and penthouses set within the established Alcazaba Lagoon resort in Casares, on the western Costa del Sol — positioned for buyers who want a private enclosure without sacrificing resort infrastructure.
Construction began in December 2024 and is scheduled for completion in Summer 2027, with eight of the 38 residences already sold at launch. Interiors range from 113 m² to 179 m² of built area, and the format varies meaningfully by floor: ground-level apartments carry private gardens and plunge pools, while upper-level penthouses culminate in a private rooftop pool on the solarium. Residents also hold access rights to Alcazaba Lagoon's 1.4-hectare Crystal Lagoon, with kayaking, paddle surfing and a beach chiringuito on-site.
Pricing runs from €600,000 to €1,515,000 — a premium that reflects both the specification and the scarcity of the offering.

Live data refreshed nightly from our multiple independent sources.
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. The Place by Alcazaba Lagoon currently sits in the Under construction band.
With construction under way since December 2024 and a Summer 2027 handover, buyers are acquiring at an active build stage rather than speculative pre-launch. The area's average resale price per square metre has risen consistently over the past twelve months according to available market data, yet comparable resale stock in Casares trades well below this development's entry point in specification terms. Only 30 units remain in a scheme of 38, and the private-enclave format — with its own spa, fitness suite and owners-only pools separate from the main resort — is not replicated elsewhere within Alcazaba Lagoon.
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
30 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.
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 €5,310 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 €2,456/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Casares
The development sits in the eastern reaches of Casares, approximately 10 kilometres by car from the centre of Estepona — close enough to reach its old town, marina, and waterfront promenade within minutes, yet sufficiently removed to retain a quieter residential character. Several golf courses, including Estepona Golf, lie within the immediate vicinity. The corridor between Estepona and Gibraltar encompasses a broad range of services: international schools, private hospitals, marinas and Michelin-recognised restaurants are all accessible along the A-7. Málaga Airport is reachable in roughly an hour; Gibraltar Airport offers an alternative for transatlantic connections. The Costa del Sol's favourable climate — among the most temperate in mainland Europe — underpins the year-round usability of both the lagoon and the outdoor terraces.

Understand the full picture
Spanish purchases involve taxes and fees that catch first-time international buyers off-guard. We surface every figure that matters.
Typical off-plan payment schedule
Spanish new-build purchases are typically paid in three staged instalments, with every euro held under bank guarantee until completion.
Total cost of ownership
Spanish mortgage scenario

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.
