Project analysis
CARAT FASE II combines new-build apartments in Fuengirola with walking access to the beach and restaurants. Measured routes support those two features, while the sloping terrain remains something to assess during a visit. A short calculated walking time does not establish how comfortable the route will be for every resident.
The available price list includes apartments on different floors. The developer also uses the marketing term sky villas in the description; that does not turn these listed apartments into detached villas. Compare the particular layout, its connection with the terrace and the conditions governing shared spaces.
Planned completion and a building licence are separate facts. Resales records a licence but does not mark the homes as key ready. Discuss current construction progress, the contractual handover date and any remaining choices of finishes before committing.
The separate price-list columns record 84.59–122.08 m² built, 71.90–103.77 m² useful and 34.13–231.13 m² terrace area. These measurements have different meanings.
Besides the outdoor and heated indoor pools, the developer describes a spa with hammam, sauna and salt room, a gym, cinema and coworking space. For a purchase involving possible letting, access conditions and recurring costs matter: extensive facilities do not establish rental income. Request the community budget and applicable letting conditions.
Daily life at CARAT FASE II
A day by the coast need not always begin with the car here. According to the checked routes, the beach and several restaurants are within walking distance of the project point. Coffee, groceries and the train involve different destinations and should be considered individually. The developer also describes a community shuttle to the beach and shopping centre. Ask for its current timetable and conditions of use; these are not established by the price list. During a viewing, try the return walk too. The terrain makes your own experience at least as relevant as the number of minutes on a route estimate.
Space inside, room outside
The available apartments combine two or three bedrooms with different terrace arrangements. First consider the indoor space you actually need: an additional bedroom may accommodate visitors, but does not in itself establish the size of the living room or storage space. Then assess access to the terrace, covered areas and where you would eat or relax. The price list distinguishes built, usable and terrace areas. Those measurements are not interchangeable. Ask for the measurement definitions and an explanation of the apartment plan before comparing areas from different suppliers. The illustrated price calculation does not replace that explanation or confirm usable room dimensions.

Prices and purchase context
The list provides asking prices for available homes. Use them as the starting point for comparison, then request a full cost breakdown for the apartment you choose. Taxes, legal assistance, financing and optional finishes can affect your overall budget. Recurring community fees also deserve attention in a development with extensive facilities; the checked presentation provides no figure. Reservation and instalment payments require particular clarification because the payment fields and note describe different schedules. Confirm the applicable amounts, VAT treatment, payment milestones and guarantees before signing a reservation. A planned completion period should also be distinguished from the handover terms written into your contract.
Living in Fuengirola
Fuengirola is the municipality; the project presentation places CARAT FASE II in the Higuerón area. For everyday living, the particular apartment and its access to the surroundings matter more than the area name alone. The checked destinations identify places for shopping, healthcare, sport and public transport. They do not guarantee opening hours or unrestricted access. During a visit, spend time outside the development too: experience the route to the coast, find the station entrance and consider where you would normally shop. This helps distinguish the appeal of a holiday stay from your practical requirements when spending longer periods in the apartment.

Who could CARAT FASE II suit?
This development may suit buyers who want to walk to the beach and restaurants while having facilities within the residential complex. Two bedrooms may work for personal stays with occasional guests; a third bedroom offers another layout option without necessarily guaranteeing a larger living area. Buyers staying for longer periods can include the indoor pool and gym in their assessment. Check their accessibility, opening hours and costs as well. If you are considering letting the apartment, investigate the applicable rules and community conditions separately. The project description does not establish a rental return and should not be treated as an investment calculation.

Example floor plan
The contract plan for home 1D shows two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open living room and kitchen, a laundry and a covered terrace. Parking spaces and storage are drawn separately.
The home and terrace areas in the plan table match the separate price-list columns. The plan total also includes the terrace and laundry and is therefore not an indoor area. Parking and storage are excluded from the weighted price comparison.
Project details
Location and everyday routes
Actual walking and driving routes have been calculated from the recorded project point. The connections to the beach and restaurants support the character of this location, while longer outings involve different journeys. The railway station is worth including in your visit; judge its practicality from the route and your own travel needs. The sloping surroundings deserve attention too, particularly if you expect to walk home with shopping regularly. The regional connections below provide a wider geographical context. Distances start at the project point rather than at every apartment’s front door, and estimated journey times should be considered indicative rather than fixed.

Distances start at the project point rather than at every apartment’s front door, and estimated journey times should be considered indicative rather than fixed.
How should I read the area figures?
The separate price-list columns record 84.59–122.08 m² built, 71.90–103.77 m² useful and 34.13–231.13 m² terrace area. These measurements have different meanings. The available apartments combine two or three bedrooms with different terrace arrangements.

Ask for the measurement definitions and an explanation of the apartment plan before comparing areas from different suppliers. The illustrated price calculation does not replace that explanation or confirm usable room dimensions.
What should I check for each home?
The available price list includes apartments on different floors. The developer also uses the marketing term sky villas in the description; that does not turn these listed apartments into detached villas. Compare the particular layout, its connection with the terrace and the conditions governing shared spaces.
What are the payment and completion plans?
The main Resales fields show a reservation of €25,000, followed by 20% at contract, 30% during construction and 50% at completion. However, the additional note gives another deposit above one million euros and a different instalment schedule. Obtain written confirmation of the schedule for your apartment, how the reservation is credited and whether the amounts include VAT. Planned completion: fourth quarter of 2026. This is a schedule, not a guaranteed handover date.
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.
Is there a floor plan for CARAT FASE II?
The contract plan for home 1D shows two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open living room and kitchen, a laundry and a covered terrace. Parking spaces and storage are drawn separately. The home and terrace areas in the plan table match the separate price-list columns. The plan total also includes the terrace and laundry and is therefore not an indoor area. Parking and storage are excluded from the weighted price comparison. 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 CARAT FASE II?
The median asking price per built m² is €12,015, calculated individually across 10 available apartments. For the weighted price, we divide the asking price by built area plus 50% of the separately listed terrace. The median is €8,522 per weighted m² across 10 homes. Gardens and plots are excluded. This is an illustrative comparison method, not an official area measure or valuation.
