Vangard I
Project lifecycle
Vangard I, in context.
Vangard I is the opening release of a 153-home garden community in Fuengirola, on the part of the coast where the Costa del Sol is at its most practical to live in year round, halfway between Málaga and Marbella.
This first phase holds 89 apartments and penthouses, ranging from 115 m² two-bedroom homes to 344 m² four-bedroom penthouses, with prices from €536,750 to €1,250,000.
The organising idea is a living garden. Water, planting and open ground are used to shape the way the buildings sit rather than being added at the end. Terraces follow an organic geometry and wrap the interiors, so the boundary between the sitting room and the outdoors is deliberately soft.
Communal life is resort-scaled without being showy: outdoor pools, a heated indoor pool, a spa, a gym, coworking rooms and generous landscaped areas.
Completion is scheduled for Q2 2028, which gives a buyer three years of staged payments and first choice of orientation while 54 homes remain. For anyone who wants the beach at 1.1 km, the airport at roughly 35 minutes and a home that will still feel current in a decade, this is a straightforward case.

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. Vangard I currently sits in the Off-plan band.
At this stage you are buying early into phase one of a larger 153-home scheme, with 54 of 89 homes left and completion set for Q2 2028. That means staged payments over roughly three years, choice of floor and orientation and the A-rated specification built in rather than retrofitted. Entry pricing works out near €4,670/m², above the €3,421/m² area median, though the local resale comparables at €255,000 to €320,000 are older two and three-bedroom stock without spa, indoor pool or aerothermal systems. One honest caveat: the cadastral record still shows the plot's former industrial use and a 347 m² warehouse, so the redevelopment timetable is worth tracking with us directly.
Why buyers reserve at this stage
Personalisation window
Reserving during the Off-plan 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
54 of 89 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.
Vangard I is not priced against average Fuengirola 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 €4,667 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 €2,975/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Fuengirola
This is Fuengirola at its most usable. Playa de los Boliches sits 1.1 km away, an easy walk or a two-minute drive, with Playa de San Francisco and Playa Torreblanca-Carvajal within 1.6 km if you want a different stretch of sand on a busy weekend. The marina is four minutes by car and the town's fish restaurants and pavement cafés start about 600 m from the front door.
Daily logistics are almost dull, which is the point. A Mercadona is 500 m away, the nearest pharmacy under 500 m, gyms and a CrossFit box within 1.6 km. Fuengirola's station is 1.7 km off, putting the coastal commuter line, the airport and central Málaga within reach without touching the car. Málaga airport itself is around 35 minutes by road via the A-7.
Golfers have the Mijas courses at Los Lagos and Los Olivos eight to nine minutes away, with Cerrado del Aguila at ten. Hospital Vithas Xanit International is a quarter of an hour east. Then there is the climate: average highs of 21.5°C and lows of 14.8°C across the year, which is why the terraces and the heated indoor pool both earn their keep.

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
Indicative non-resident mortgage on the slider price above. Spanish banks typically lend 60–70% LTV to non-residents over 20–25 years.
Investment outlook
Three scenarios our analysts model on every Costa del Sol off-plan deal.
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.
