Frontline beach living with an 88-square-metre terrace

Punta Planta sits directly on the Estepona coastline, separated from the sand only by its own communal garden and the seafront promenade. This 2 bedroom penthouse duplex in Punta Planta, Estepona was renovated in 2025 and faces straight out to the Mediterranean, Gibraltar, and the African coast. Because the development is within walking distance of a shopping centre, public transport links, and the restaurants of Estepona old town, daily errands do not require a car.

Inside the 105-square-metre built area

The layout centres on an open-plan kitchen and living room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the water. Putting the kitchen and living area into a single space keeps the sea view visible while cooking, though it means there is no separate dining room or closed-off kitchen to hide preparation mess. The two bedrooms and two bathrooms are split between a main bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom and a second bedroom served by a separate guest bathroom. A private technical and storage room is built into the space beneath the staircase, giving a dedicated spot for equipment and luggage without taking up wardrobe space in the bedrooms.

Two terraces and what the community includes

Outdoor space totals 88 square metres split across two levels, which is nearly the size of the built area itself. A 21-square-metre terrace opens off the main living area for sitting directly outside the glazing. From there, a private staircase leads up to a 67-square-metre rooftop terrace fitted with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, a jacuzzi, and an outdoor shower, leaving room for dining and sunbeds. Having a second kitchen upstairs means you do not have to carry plates and food up and down the stairs when eating on the roof. Downstairs, the gated community includes parking and a garden with a gate opening directly onto the beach and promenade.

What to check when viewing

With a 2025 renovation, a buyer should ask for the specifications of the new glazing and the paperwork for the plumbing and electrical updates, particularly given the load of a rooftop jacuzzi and outdoor kitchen. When looking at a 2 bedroom penthouse duplex in Punta Planta, Estepona, it is also worth standing on the upper terrace to check wind exposure, as frontline roofs take the full coastal breeze. Finally, check the exact location of the allocated parking space in relation to the stairs up to the flat.
