The location: La Gaspara, western Estepona

The Palms is in the western area of Estepona, one of the most sought-after parts of the Costa del Sol. It is close to the beach and the seafront walkway, while staying calm and green.

  • Beach and promenade: sandy beaches and the coastal walkway are a short stroll away, and the promenade leads to Estepona’s marina and old town.

  • Old town: whitewashed streets, restaurants, boutiques and cultural attractions are within easy reach.

  • Golf: Valle Romano Golf and Estepona Golf, both 18-hole courses, are close by.

  • Everyday services: schools, supermarkets, sports facilities and the new Estepona hospital are all nearby.

  • Leisure: the Alcazaba Lagoons resort, with its lagoon-style swimming areas, is also in the area.

  • Marbella and Puerto Banús: both are reachable in under 20 minutes by car.

  • Airports: Málaga and Gibraltar airports are both within easy reach.

It is a location that suits both residents and holiday-home owners: peaceful, green and well connected.

Architecture and design

The Palms is designed around a concept inspired by nature. The low-rise buildings prioritise privacy, natural light and open green views, with tropical gardens between them. Key features reported for the homes include:

  • Natural textures of wood and stone for a warm, contemporary feel

  • Open-plan living areas with floor-to-ceiling glass doors

  • Expansive terraces that extend the living space outdoors

  • High ceilings and plenty of natural light

  • Private gardens or solariums with every home

  • Solar panels and modern, energy-conscious construction

  • Security and parking within the community

Amenities and lifestyle

The Palms combines everyday comfort with resort-style facilities, all inside a low-density community:

  • Spa facilities for relaxing after a day on the beach or the golf course

  • Gym for staying active without leaving home

  • Coworking space for residents who work remotely

Why buy at The Palms at Estepona?

1. Private outdoor living. Private pools for ground-floor homes and rooftop pools for penthouses are unusual in a new-build apartment community, and make the homes feel like villas.

2. A choice from one to four bedrooms. Whether you want a compact holiday home or a spacious family penthouse, there is a layout to suit your plans and budget.

3. Wellness and work in one place. The spa, gym and coworking space reflect how people live today, mixing leisure, fitness and remote work.

4. Close to the beach and the old town. The beach and coastal walkway are a short stroll away, and the promenade leads to the old town and marina.

5. A boutique, low-density community. Seventy-eight homes in low-rise buildings with tropical gardens give you privacy and space.

6. Off-plan flexibility. Buying off-plan lets you spread payments over the construction period. With completion estimated for Q3 2028, there is time to plan, and your payments should be protected by bank guarantees. Your lawyer will confirm the details.

7. A growing, well-served area. Western Estepona offers schools, healthcare, golf courses, shopping and quick access to Marbella.

8. Estepona has momentum. Idealista’s September 2026 report puts average asking prices in Estepona at about €5,021 per square metre, around 17% higher than a year earlier, and still below Marbella. Past performance is no guarantee of future results, but the town’s appeal to international buyers is clear. See our western Costa del Sol market guide for the latest figures.

Who is The Palms at Estepona for?
  • Families who want space, private pools or gardens, and schools and healthcare nearby

  • Second-home buyers who want a stylish, low-maintenance home near the beach

  • Remote workers who will make use of the coworking space and spa

  • Investors considering an off-plan purchase in a high-demand area, who should take advice on rental rules, licences and costs

How to buy

  1. Choose your home from the available apartments and penthouses.

  2. Reserve it with a reservation payment and agreement.

  3. Get your NIE number and appoint an independent lawyer to check the paperwork.

  4. Sign the purchase contract and pay the agreed stage payments, which should be protected by bank guarantees while the building is under construction.

  5. Complete at the notary when the development is finished and register the home in your name.

If you will own the home as a non-resident, annual Spanish non-resident taxes apply. You can estimate them with EasySpanishTax.
