About Altos Del Chaparral
A heated indoor pool for winter, saltwater pools for summer, a putting green and someone to take care of your laundry and small repairs: Altos del Chaparral is built like a resort. The development has 120 apartments with 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms on a 31,000 m² estate, on a hill in Mijas between La Cala de Mijas and Fuengirola. Every home in our listings has sea views. Completion is planned for September 2028.
The six homes in our data show a clear price ladder. With 1 bedroom and 60 m² you pay €341,000. With 2 bedrooms, a 92 m² apartment costs €485,000, but the 107 m² ground-floor version is cheaper at €451,000 and has a 99 m² terrace plus 47 m² of garden. With 3 bedrooms you pay €581,000 for 123 m² on the first floor or €595,000 on the ground floor, with a 160 m² terrace. The 3-bedroom penthouse with 133 m² and a 103 m² terrace costs €795,000. Every home has a parking space and energy rating B.
What sets this development apart is its range of facilities. There is a wellness area with spa, heated indoor pool, sauna and relaxation room, a fitness centre with activity rooms, a coworking space, saltwater pools, a chill-out area with barbecue, walking paths, a volleyball court and a putting green. A concierge service helps with laundry, cleaning, repairs and maintenance. You do pay for that comfort in the monthly community fees.

So you pay the normal new-build price, with a broader package of facilities.

The ground-floor homes stand out with up to 160 m² of outdoor space, but completion is still 23 months away, against a median of 14.

Sun, light and views
Here the sun rises at 7:00 on 21 June and sets at 21:40, giving 14.7 hours of daylight. On 21 December you still have 9.7 hours, with the midday sun at 30° above the horizon. Altos Del Chaparral sits at around 73 metres above sea level.
All six homes in our listings have confirmed sea views. According to the project description, the hill offers a 180-degree view of the sea; how much of it your home enjoys is something we check floor by floor and building by building.
Homes and finishes
The apartments have an open layout with large windows, a fully equipped kitchen with appliances and ducted air conditioning. The build focuses on energy efficiency, and another source mentions techniques and materials to reduce emissions and consumption. We request the technical specifications, check which brands and finishes are written into the contract and ask for an estimate of the community fees, because the spa, indoor pool and concierge weigh on that budget.
Payment schedule
As with most new builds on the Costa del Sol, you pay in instalments: a reservation deposit, a portion on signing the purchase contract and during construction, and the balance at the deed signing. Every payment before completion must be covered by a bank guarantee. We will send you the exact payment schedule for Altos Del Chaparral through Privé.

Our honest verdict on Altos Del Chaparral
Strengths
- Resort facilities with a heated indoor pool, spa, putting green and concierge service.
- Sea views confirmed for every home in our listings.
- Ground-floor homes with terraces of 99 to 160 m².
- Entry-level 1-bedroom at €341,000, appealing for rental.
- Large 31,000 m² estate with gardens and walking paths.
Points to consider
- Completion not until September 2028, a 23-month wait.
- Extensive facilities mean higher community fees; ask for an estimate.
- With 120 apartments, a large complex with plenty of neighbours.
- First-floor apartments have only 9 to 15 m² of terrace.
- The beach is a 33-minute walk; you will drive for almost everything.
Who is Altos Del Chaparral right for?
Altos del Chaparral suits buyers who want to use their home like a resort: winter residents who want to swim indoors in January, golfers, and owners abroad who want the concierge to take care of things. The 1-bedroom home is a natural rental product. Less suitable if you want low monthly costs or cannot wait until the end of 2028.
