More outdoor space than indoor at Alcazaba Lagoon

An open-plan living and dining room forms the core of this 2 bedroom top floor apartment in Casares, flanked by two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Built in 2024 inside the Alcazaba Lagoon development, the property is a recent resale where the external square metreage outweighs the rooms inside.

The terrace, the solarium and the Alcazaba Lagoon community

The defining number here is the 95 m² of combined outdoor space, split between two separate areas. You have a 22.20 m² terrace for daily use straight from the apartment, plus a private 73.10 m² solarium. A solarium of that scale almost matches the entire footprint of the flat, giving enough room to divide the area into distinct zones for a large dining table, sun loungers and shade structures without each crowding the other. Down at ground level, the community centres on a communal lagoon with a sandy beach and water activities, alongside a swimming pool and landscaped gardens. Buyers looking at this 2 bedroom top floor apartment in Casares should check how the solarium is accessed and verify what water supply and electrical points are already installed up there.

How the 75 m² built area works

Inside, the official built area is 75 m² (75.63 m² on the floor plan, which leaves 63.78 m² of usable space once walls are accounted for). Sharing that usable footprint between an open living and dining room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms means the internal proportions are compact and there is no wasted corridor. Having two bathrooms prevents morning queues when four people stay, though anyone moving from a larger house will need to measure their existing furniture carefully against the 63.78 m² floor plate. The flat relies on its outdoor areas to act as the second living room for most of the year.

Parking, storage and the surrounding area

Because a 63.78 m² usable footprint leaves limited room for bulky cupboards inside, the inclusion of a 4 m² storage room and a private parking space solves the practical problem of where to keep bicycles, beach gear and luggage. Alcazaba Lagoon sits inland in the municipality of Casares, driving distance from the beaches at Casares Costa and the golf course at Finca Cortesin. For wider services, supermarkets and marinas, the road network links directly to Estepona, Sotogrande and Marbella, with both Gibraltar and Málaga Airport reachable by car.
