About Elysea Suites
An apartment with its own pool is fairly rare on the Costa del Sol, and Elysea Suites makes it its signature. The development has 22 apartments with 2 or 3 bedrooms in Mijas Costa, close to the border with Fuengirola. The beach is a 4-minute walk away. Our selection includes three homes, from €1,056,000 to €1,756,000, with completion in January 2028.
The ground-floor apartments have a private garden with pool. The smallest has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 88 m² and a 38 m² terrace for €1,056,000. The second has 3 bedrooms and 107 m² with a 40 m² terrace, for €1,206,000. The penthouse is the showpiece: 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 110 m² inside and a 115 m² terrace with solarium and pool, for €1,756,000. Sea views are confirmed only for the penthouse.
In the communal basement you get a private garage pre-installed for electric car charging points. The shared spaces are remarkably complete for such a small development: a gym, a jacuzzi with a counter-current so you can swim against the flow, a Turkish bath, a sauna, a relaxation room and a multipurpose room for coworking or meetings. The energy rating is B.

Elysea Suites in figures
Here you need to read the figures carefully. According to our data, Elysea Suites averages €12,000 per m², the most expensive per m² of the 55 new developments in Mijas. That is 141% above the median for new builds in the municipality (€4,984) and 223% above resale homes in Mijas (€3,717 per m², idealista, September 2026). Part of that price lies in the private pool and the large terraces, but a gap like that needs explaining. The third bedroom costs €150,000 extra. The cheapest apartment costs around €1,193,372 all in: €105,600 VAT, €12,672 stamp duty, €6,300 notary and €12,800 lawyer. Completion is 15 months away, in line with the Mijas median of 14 months.
| Price | € 1.056.000 |
| VAT (IVA) 10% | € 105.600 |
| Stamp duty (AJD) 1.2% | € 12.672 |
| Notary and land registry (estimate) | € 6.300 |
| Lawyer 1% + VAT (estimate) | € 12.800 |
Around 13.0% on top of the price in total. All purchase costs explained.
| 2 bedrooms | from €1,056,000 |
| 3 bedrooms | from €1,206,000 |
Terrace, solarium and garden combined, as a percentage of the living area (median). That is more than 71% of new developments in Mijas. Largest outdoor space: 115 m².
Planned completion January 2028. For half of the new developments in Mijas, completion is within 14 months.
Calculated by Imagine Marbella on 20 October 2026 from the current supply of 55 new developments in Mijas and the average asking price of resale homes in Mijas according to Idealista, September 2026. Costs are an estimate; we will prepare an exact calculation for you.
Location
Elysea Suites is in the coastal part of Mijas, where the municipality merges into Fuengirola. The development lies low, at around 24 metres above sea level, and close to the sea. According to the project description, a raised position still gives sea views from the upper homes. There are six golf courses within 15 kilometres, and the motorway is easy to reach. Fuengirola town centre, with shops and restaurants open all year round, is close by.
Playa El Ejido is a 4-minute walk away. By car it takes 13 minutes, so you are better off leaving the car behind. Carrefour is a 5-minute drive or a 20-minute walk away. Fuengirola town centre is 8 minutes by car or 41 minutes on foot. St Anthony's College is 14 minutes away and Vithas Xanit hospital 17. Málaga airport is 30 minutes away and Málaga city centre 33.

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. Elysea Suites sits at around 24 metres above sea level.
Sea views are confirmed only for the penthouse. No views are listed for the ground-floor apartments with garden and pool; we check for each home what you see and how much privacy the garden offers.
Homes and finishes
The technical specification is solid: aerothermal underfloor heating, air conditioning, a ventilation system, room-by-room temperature control and home automation. The kitchen comes equipped and large windows let in plenty of light. According to another source, you can customise the kitchen and bathrooms within the development's options. We ask for the technical specifications and the plans with exact floor areas, and check that every payment is covered by a bank guarantee.
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 Elysea Suites through Privé.

- Boutique scale: only 22 apartments.
- Penthouse with a 115 m² terrace, solarium and sea views.
- Wellness facilities with sauna, Turkish bath and counter-current jacuzzi.
Points to consider
- Most expensive development per m² in Mijas according to our comparison, 223% above resale homes.

- Sources show different floor areas and prices; ask for the exact plans and price list.
- No confirmed sea views for the ground-floor apartments.
- Our data lists no parking space per home, while the description mentions a garage.
Who is Elysea Suites right for?
Elysea Suites suits buyers who want the comfort of a villa, with their own pool, but in a small apartment building close to the beach and town. It also appeals to anyone working from Spain who values the coworking space. If you watch the price per m² closely or want to move in soon, you will find much cheaper options in Mijas and Fuengirola.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Elysea Suites
Does every apartment at Elysea Suites have a private pool?
According to our data, all three homes in our selection have a private pool. The ground-floor apartments have it in their garden, the penthouse on the terrace with solarium.
How far is the beach from Elysea Suites?
Playa El Ejido is a 4-minute walk away. By car it takes 13 minutes because you have to go the long way round. So walking is much more practical.
Why is Elysea Suites so expensive per m²?
At €12,000 per m², it is the most expensive development in Mijas in our comparison. The private pool, the terraces and the wellness facilities all play a part, but we recommend having the floor areas on the plans checked.
How far is Málaga Airport?
By our measurement, Málaga airport is a 30-minute drive. The motorway is close by, so you are quickly on the coast road towards Málaga.
Do I pay more if I buy Elysea Suites through Imagine Marbella?
No. You pay the same price as buying directly from the seller. Through us you also get independent advice, legal guidance and aftercare.
What costs come on top of the price of a new-build home?
In Andalusia, a new build carries 10% VAT (IVA) and 1.2% stamp duty (AJD), plus notary, land registry and lawyer's fees. For the most affordable home in Elysea Suites, that adds up to around 13.0%.
