About Amaranta Living
Waiting two years for a new-build home is the rule rather than the exception on the Costa del Sol. Not at Amaranta Living: every home on our list is scheduled for December 2026. The complex sits on the frontline of the Casares Costa golf course, at around 57 metres above sea level, and every home on our list is advertised with sea views. You can choose between apartments, ground-floor apartments with a garden and penthouses, with 2 or 3 bedrooms.
According to the description, the project has 74 apartments and 17 penthouses. The communal areas are designed for people who spend a lot of time in the complex: two large pools in the garden, a gym, a golf simulator, a gourmet lounge, chill-out areas and a barbecue spot. The development is gated, with lifts, and every home comes with a parking space and a storage room.
The most interesting homes are at either end of the price ladder. At the top is a 3-bedroom penthouse of 147 m² with a 98 m² terrace for €685,000. On the ground floor, a 2-bedroom apartment with a 31 m² terrace and an 81 m² garden costs €464,000. So for a little more than the entry-level apartment, you get a lot of extra outdoor space there.

Amaranta Living in figures
At €4,660 per m² (median), Amaranta is close to the Casares new-build market: 3% below the median of €4,804. Compared with resale homes in Casares (€3,197 according to idealista, August 2026), you do pay 46% more. That is a big gap, and it comes with a new home on the golf course that is almost finished. Prices per m² are close together, from €4,313 to €4,730, so no home is exceptionally expensive or cheap. All in, the €446,000 apartment costs around €504,052: €44,600 VAT, €5,352 stamp duty, €2,700 notary and €5,400 lawyer. A third bedroom takes you to €565,000, €119,000 more on average.
| Price | € 446.000 |
| VAT (IVA) 10% | € 44.600 |
| Stamp duty (AJD) 1.2% | € 5.352 |
| Notary and land registry (estimate) | € 2.700 |
| Lawyer 1% + VAT (estimate) | € 5.400 |
Around 13.0% on top of the price in total. All purchase costs explained.
| 2 bedrooms | from €446,000 |
| 3 bedrooms | from €565,000 |
Terrace, solarium and garden combined, as a percentage of the living area (median). That is more than 40% of new developments in Casares. Largest outdoor space: 98 m².
Planned completion December 2026. For half of the new developments in Casares, completion is within 11 months.
Calculated by Imagine Marbella on 20 October 2026 from the current supply of 15 new developments in Casares and the average asking price of resale homes in Casares according to Idealista, August 2026. Costs are an estimate; we will prepare an exact calculation for you.
Location
Casares Golf, also known as Casares Costa Golf, lies in the coastal part of Casares, in the hills between Estepona and Manilva. It is a quiet development built around a golf course, with residential complexes and lots of greenery. There are other courses nearby, so golfers have plenty of choice without driving far. The white village of Casares lies inland, a 19-minute drive away. According to the description, you have easy access to the N-340 and the AP-7, which makes the drives to Gibraltar and Málaga easier.
You cannot manage here without a car. Costa Natura beach is an 8-minute drive, Lidl 5 minutes and Estepona hospital 9 minutes. La Duquesa port is 8 minutes away, Estepona town centre 15 and Sotogrande marina 19. Puerto Banús is 30 minutes away. Gibraltar Airport is a 41-minute drive, Málaga Airport 70 minutes.

Sun, light and views
Here the sun rises at 7:03 on 21 June and sets at 21:42, giving 14.6 hours of daylight. On 21 December you still have 9.7 hours, with the midday sun at 30° above the horizon. Amaranta Living sits at around 57 metres above sea level.
Every home on our list is advertised with sea views, across the golf course. The orientation of each home is not in the data; we confirm it on site.
Homes and finishes
The kitchens are Italian-style and fully fitted with quality appliances. The living spaces are open-plan, with the kitchen as part of the living area. All homes on our list have energy rating B. Further technical details, such as the heating and cooling system, are not in our data. As completion is so close, we request a site visit as soon as it is safe. At handover, we check together with you the condition of the home, the climate control, the garage and the storage room, and note any defects for the notary.
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 Amaranta Living through Privé.

Our honest verdict on Amaranta Living
Strengths
- Completion in December 2026, so only a 2-month wait.
- Frontline golf with sea views from every home on our list.
- Penthouse with a 98 m² terrace for €685,000.
- Ground-floor apartment with an 81 m² garden for €464,000.
- Price per m² virtually at the Casares new-build median.
- Golf simulator, gym and two pools in the complex.
Points to consider
- Resale homes in Casares cost 46% less per m².
- Beach an 8-minute drive away, not reachable on foot.

- A third bedroom costs an average of €119,000 extra.
- There is little choice left in available homes.
Who is Amaranta Living right for?
Amaranta suits golfers and buyers who want to enjoy a finished home soon. If you want to rent it out, golfers in spring and autumn are the logical target here. Families with young children are best off looking at the ground-floor homes with a garden. If you are hunting for a bargain, the Casares resale market offers lower prices per m². If you want to live without a car, Sabinillas or Estepona are better choices.

Off market: what you will not find online
Not every property on the Costa del Sol ends up on a website.
Owners who want to sell discreetly, a last penthouse that has not yet been released, a villa that only comes onto the market when the right buyer appears: part of the market changes hands without a single advert. Already know the market and looking for something you cannot find online? Tell us as precisely as possible what you are looking for. If it exists, we will find it for you.
