Marinsa Altair
Project lifecycle
Marinsa Altair, in context.
On the eastern edge of El Morche, where Torrox Costa loosens into open coastline, Marinsa Altair is a gated scheme of apartments set a couple of hundred metres back from the Mediterranean. The full project runs to 112 homes. The 80 we track are two and three-bedroom apartments of 88 to 127 m², each with two bathrooms, priced from €306,000 to €510,000. It suits buyers who want the sea within walking distance and a home that works as well in February as it does in August.
The buildings face the water and many homes have sea views. What changes is how you meet them. Ground-floor apartments open onto generous terraces, made for long lunches in the shade. On the first and second floors, glass balconies keep the horizon unbroken from the sofa.
The penthouses add private solariums, where evenings stretch out above the rooftops of El Morche. Inside, the specification is quietly thoughtful: porcelain floors, lined built-in wardrobes, automated blinds in the bedrooms and living room, a smart wall-hung toilet in the master bathroom and soft lighting set into the bedroom skirting.
Beyond the front door sit communal pools, a padel court and a playground within a gated perimeter. Every home comes with an underground parking space and a storage room. Construction is under way, with completion scheduled for Q4 2026. More than half of the tracked units have already sold, a pace that reflects how rarely new-build stock appears on this stretch of coast.

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. Marinsa Altair currently sits in the Under construction band.
Marinsa Altair is past the drawing-board stage. Construction has started, completion is scheduled for Q4 2026 and more than half of the 80 tracked apartments have already sold. That leaves a real but narrowing choice of floor, aspect and view. Buyers who want a penthouse solarium or a higher sea-facing floor have the most to gain from moving early. Entry pricing sits above the Torrox resale median of €2,896 per m². That premium pays for new-build specification, heat-pump efficiency and a beach 220 metres away. Area values have edged up steadily, from a twelve-month average of €2,832 per m² to €2,921 over the latest month. New-build releases on Torrox Costa remain scarce.
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
38 of 80 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.
Marinsa Altair is not priced against average Torrox 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 €3,477 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 €2,896/m².

What every unit receives
Living in Torrox
Daily life here is measured in short walks. Dunas de la Carraca lies around 220 metres from the development, Playa del Cenicero a little over 400 and Playa del Morche roughly 700, so the morning swim needs no planning. A beach café sits about 400 metres away and there is a traditional mesón barely 100 metres from the gate.
Further restaurants, bars and two pharmacies are all a few minutes away on foot.
The climate rewards year-round living, with average highs of 22°C and lows around 16°C. For time on the water, the marina at Caleta de Vélez is around 15 minutes by car. Gyms and yoga studios cluster about 2 km away, while the district hospital for the Axarquía is roughly 19 minutes' drive.
According to the developer, Vélez-Málaga is 25 minutes away, Málaga 40 minutes and the AVE high-speed rail station some 45 minutes. The airport lies around 46 km west.
