Project analysis
ALURA LIVING PHASE I combines new-build apartments with sea views and wellness facilities in Casares. The current choice is between two apartments with the same bedroom and bathroom counts but different arrangements of indoor and outdoor space. That distinction is more useful for a shortlist than the starting price alone.
Ground-floor apartment 2.0.4 has an open-plan kitchen and living room leading to a covered terrace and a 64.47 m² garden. Both bedrooms sit along one side of the dwelling, with two separately identified bathrooms on the plan.
Apartment 1.1.6 extends its outdoor space onto a roof solarium. Its drawing separates 44.79 m² of built terrace from 63.75 m² of built solarium. The illustrated optional outdoor kitchen and private pool should not be treated as standard features included in the asking price.
Shared facilities include outdoor pools, a children’s pool, gym, sauna, hammam, coworking and a golf simulator. Ask about house rules, opening hours and the eventual community charges when choosing a property; those charges have not been supplied.
The visualisations show pale façades, broad terraces, palm planting and furnished interiors. They help explain the architectural proposal, while furniture, landscaping and depicted outlooks remain illustrations rather than a commitment for every individual apartment.
The rhythm of life at ALURA LIVING PHASE I
A morning workout, some work and an afternoon by the pool: several everyday activities are envisaged within ALURA LIVING. The shared gym, coworking space and outdoor pools allow parts of your routine to remain within the development. A sauna and hammam add relaxation facilities, while golfers have a simulator to consider. Their presence does not tell you how busy each room will be or when it opens. Include operating rules in your property assessment. For a meal outside the development, the measured walk to Green House Restaurante is 511 m. Grocery shopping and longer outings call for more planning.
Space inside, room outside
The connection between living space and outdoors is central to comparing these apartments. At ground-floor home 2.0.4, the living kitchen opens onto a covered terrace and then the garden. That arrangement may suit someone wanting indoor and outdoor activities on one level. Apartment 1.1.6 offers a separate solarium with more outdoor area, reached using stairs. Think about where you would eat, read and entertain. The drawings help compare circulation and furniture positions. Focus on the dwelling’s own indoor measurements: larger totals incorporating exterior space or communal areas do not provide additional rooms to furnish or use as bedrooms.

Prices and purchase context
The current asking-price difference is €84,600. Alongside different indoor measurements, the choice involves a garden at one apartment and a solarium at the other. Read the price together with the drawing and its separate area categories. Taxes, purchase expenses and optional extras also belong in the budget. The payment document divides payments between reservation, contract, six months after signing and the deed. Community charges, local property tax and refuse charges have not been provided. Obtain those figures before preparing a complete annual budget, whether the home is intended for personal use or a possible letting arrangement.
Living in Casares Costa, Casares
ALURA LIVING is in the coastal part of Casares. Its location by Doña Julia brings golf into the surrounding area, with routes towards beaches and everyday services. This differs from living in a village centre: a restaurant may be relatively close while shopping or a beach trip involves a more deliberate journey. Routes to named destinations give more useful context than a broad statement about proximity. During a visit, consider the return journey and gradients as well. Distance alone does not describe how comfortable a walk will feel in warm weather or when carrying shopping.

Who could ALURA LIVING PHASE I suit?
These homes may suit buyers looking for two bedrooms who want to choose their outdoor arrangement carefully. A garden adjoining the terrace brings a different routine from a solarium above the apartment. Regular gym users or people working from home can consider the shared fitness and coworking facilities alongside that choice. For a second home, discuss management during absences and access to communal areas. Buyers needing immediate occupation should consider the planned 2029 completion. Anyone examining the property as an investment also needs rental conditions, operating costs and a realistic occupancy assessment rather than relying on the advertised asking price alone.
Other projects in perspective
At ADAGIO — apartments, Estepona, home 3-6-0-B lists 2 bedrooms, €492,000 and a 69.60 m² terrace. ALURA LIVING PHASE I home 2.0.4 also has 2 bedrooms, at €526,400, with a 25.95 m² terrace and a separate garden. Asking price and terrace size therefore point in different directions. At ABRIL DOÑA JULIA — apartments, Casares, Abril Doña Julia N.20 has 2 bedrooms, costs €447,000 and lists 21.40 m² of terrace; the selected ALURA home has a larger terrace at a higher asking price. Keep its garden separate. Neither the lower price nor terrace size alone establishes better views, finishes or everyday comfort.
Payment and completion
For phase I, blocks 1–3, the payment document specifies €10,000 plus VAT on reservation, credited against the 30% plus VAT due at the private purchase contract. A further 10% plus VAT is payable six months after signing, with the remaining 60% plus VAT at the deed. The document is indicative: have the amounts, milestones and guarantees set out in the contract.
Planned completion: second quarter of 2029. This is a schedule, not a guaranteed handover date. Resales lists the building permit as granted.
| Stage | Share | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Reservation | 10,000 EUR | Plus VAT |
| Contract signing | 30 % | Plus VAT |
| During construction | 10 % | Plus VAT |

Example floor plan
The March 2026 plans for 2.0.4 and 1.1.6 each identify two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Apartment 2.0.4 has 84.21 m² of its own built dwelling area and 71.02 m² usable indoors, alongside a 25.95 m² built terrace and 64.47 m² garden. Apartment 1.1.6 has 99.30 m² of its own built dwelling area and 80.43 m² usable indoors, alongside 44.79 m² of terrace and 63.75 m² of solarium. Common-area inclusive and total measurements remain separate; they are not counted as additional indoor rooms.
Project details
Location and everyday routes
ALURA LIVING PHASE I is beside Doña Julia in the coastal part of Casares. The historic village centre of Casares lies farther inland and is a separate destination. The walking route to the beach differs from access by car: consider both when planning everyday journeys. Lidl is one option for groceries; for exercise, weigh the shared project facilities against Casares Sport Club outside the development. Check its opening hours, fees and access conditions. The regional connections below help you plan outings and airport journeys.

Frequently asked questions
Which priorities come together at ALURA LIVING PHASE I?
ALURA LIVING PHASE I offers new-build apartments with sea views and wellness facilities in Casares. The two available homes offer a choice between a ground-floor garden apartment and an apartment with a terrace and solarium. Both have two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The shared gym, sauna and hammam add uses beyond swimming; confirm the exact view and specification for the apartment you select.
What is currently available?
The price list dated 2 October 2026 shows two available apartments: 2.0.4 at €526,400 and 1.1.6 at €611,000. Both have two bedrooms and two bathrooms; availability checked on 6 October 2026.
How far is the beach shown here?
The walking route to Playa Chica is 1.69 km · 23 min walk. To Lidl it is 1.89 km · 25 min walk. Source: Google Routes, checked on 6 October 2026. These are route distances; times are indicative and depend on walking pace and conditions.
How should I read the area figures?
The approved dwelling plans distinguish private built interior space, common areas and outdoor space. Home 2.0.4 has 84.21 m² of private built interior, a 25.95 m² terrace and a 64.47 m² garden. Home 1.1.6 has 99.30 m² inside, a 44.79 m² terrace and a 63.75 m² solarium. The table combines this home’s terrace and solarium as outdoor space; the garden stays separate. Do not count the larger total area again as interior space.
What should I check for each home?
Ground-floor apartment 2.0.4 has an open-plan kitchen and living room leading to a covered terrace and a 64.47 m² garden. Both bedrooms sit along one side of the dwelling, with two separately identified bathrooms on the plan.
What are the payment and completion plans?
For phase I, blocks 1–3, the payment document specifies €10,000 plus VAT on reservation, credited against the 30% plus VAT due at the private purchase contract. A further 10% plus VAT is payable six months after signing, with the remaining 60% plus VAT at the deed. The document is indicative: have the amounts, milestones and guarantees set out in the contract. Planned completion: second quarter of 2029. This is a schedule, not a guaranteed handover date. Resales lists the building permit as granted.
What comes on top of the purchase price?
For an illustrative budget for a first delivery of a new home in Andalusia, allow 10% VAT (IVA), 1.2% stamp duty (AJD), approximately 1% for notary and registration costs and approximately 1% for legal assistance: 13.2% of the purchase price in this example. The two 1% allowances are estimates, not statutory fees. The applicable taxes, taxable bases, reliefs and actual fees depend on the transaction; obtain individual advice and quotations.
Can I view a floor plan of ALURA LIVING FASE I?
Yes. View the example for apartment 1.1.6 below as an image and original PDF. Confirm which drawing applies to your unit code. Example floor plan.
What will the community fees cost?
Before reserving, ask about the community fees for the specific property: do they apply, what is the amount per month or per year, and which services are included? Also have it confirmed whether any additional contributions are planned. Request a current written statement or, if the amount is not yet final, a substantiated estimate. Do not rely solely on the project presentation.
Why buy through an agent with an API licence?
Del Sol Prime Homes works under an API licence (Agente de la Propiedad Inmobiliaria). Our project data comes directly from Resales Online, the shared database used by Costa del Sol real-estate agents. You pay the same price with us as directly with the developer. Our fee is paid by the selling side.
How should you read the price per m² at ALURA LIVING FASE I?
The median asking price is €6,202 per m² of the dwelling’s own built area, calculated across the two available apartments. The individual results are approximately €6,153 for 1.1.6 and €6,251 for 2.0.4. This calculation uses the plans’ own built dwelling measurements and excludes common areas. The weighted comparison divides the asking price by the dwelling’s own built area plus half of its separately recorded built outdoor space. At 1.1.6, terrace and solarium together amount to 108.54 m²; at 2.0.4 the terrace is 25.95 m². Garden area is excluded. The median is €4,698 per weighted m². This illustrative convention is neither a valuation nor an official measurement rule.
