Frontline duplex with direct promenade access in Puerto Banús

A 50 m2 terrace looks straight out over the sand and water from the edge of the complex. This 4 bedroom ground floor apartment with beachfront in Puerto Banús combines a 450 m2 built area with a duplex layout and five bathrooms, sitting right on the coastal path a short walk from the centre of the port.

The terrace and the communal grounds

Fifty square metres of private outdoor space gives enough room for both a full dining table and separate seating without crowding the doors. Because the building sits directly on the beach, the view from the apartment takes in a wide sweep of the sea and the shoreline. Beyond the private terrace, the development holds communal gardens and a swimming pool. Residents have direct access to the promenade and beach through the complex boundary, cutting out the need to cross any roads to reach the water. Being a gated development with 24-hour security, the grounds remain private despite the busy coastal walkway right outside the perimeter.

Inside the 450 m2 duplex

Four hundred and fifty square metres is a substantial footprint for an apartment, closer in scale to a detached house. The layout is arranged as a duplex and includes four en-suite bedrooms, each fitted with built-in wardrobes, plus a fifth bathroom. Having an individual bathroom for every bedroom removes morning bottlenecks when the property is full of guests or family. The main reception room combines the sitting and dining areas into one wide space. Rather than being shut away behind doors, the kitchen is partially open to this room and comes completely equipped. Cooking preparation is kept slightly separate from the dining table.

Parking, security and what to check

Leaving a car near the marina in high season is notoriously difficult, so the inclusion of underground parking within the gated perimeter solves a daily headache. Because this 4 bedroom ground floor apartment with beachfront in Puerto Banús is a resale property, a careful buyer will want to inspect the mechanical systems and the condition of the exterior joinery, as salt air directly off the sea tests window seals and shutters harder than inland air. It is also worth checking how the 450 m2 built area is divided between the two levels of the duplex, and verifying the sightlines and privacy from the promenade when standing on the terrace.
