SB by the Sea: beachfront apartments, penthouses and villas in Estepona

SB by the Sea is a gated frontline-beach development of 48 homes on the New Golden Mile in Estepona: six villas standing directly on the shoreline and 42 apartments and penthouses arranged in five three-storey blocks. The developer is Palya Casa del Mar, S.L., part of the Palya Assets group. Homes range from two to five bedrooms, the plot measures 33,346 m², architecture and interiors are signed by GC Studio, and the project is sold off-plan. The address is Playa del Ángel, a quiet stretch of coast a few minutes from Estepona’s old town and marina.

Homes designed around light and views

The five blocks are set back from the villas and raised slightly above the gardens, so every apartment keeps its sea view and its privacy — including the ground-floor homes, which are screened from the communal areas. Inside, the living room, dining area and kitchen read as a single space behind floor-to-ceiling glazing, with continuous flooring and bespoke joinery. The apartments come in three formats: duplex ground floor with garden, middle floor and duplex penthouse with solarium.

Outdoor space is a large part of what you buy here. The ground-floor home currently available, unit 40C in Block 4, adds 150.66 m² of terrace and 220.23 m² of private garden to 295 m² of interior. The duplex penthouse 22A pairs 211.46 m² inside with a 72.86 m² terrace and a 110.35 m² solarium. Villa 02 runs over three floors served by a lift, with 782.10 m² of interior, a 245.21 m² terrace, a 418.95 m² garden with private pool, and a basement holding an indoor pool, spa, sauna, cinema, gym and parking for three cars.

Resort-style communal areas

• Outdoor swimming pool for adults and a separate children’s pool
• Spa with a heated indoor pool of 155 m² under a skylight, sauna, hammam, jacuzzi, treatment rooms and changing rooms
• Fully equipped gym with garden views
• Padel court with adjoining rest and social areas
• Central plaza and landscaped gardens planted with native species
• Children’s play area
• Concierge service and 24/7 security
• Vehicle circulation and parking kept entirely underground

Each villa also has a private garage and its own direct access to the community spa.

Location and connections

The plot sits on Playa del Ángel, on the Estepona side of the New Golden Mile, with the Senda Litoral coastal path and the Santiago sculpture park immediately alongside. Trocadero Estepona, the beach club opened by the Trocadero Group in 2019, is the next-door neighbour. Estepona’s historic centre and marina are about five minutes away, Puerto Banús and Marbella lie to the east along the A-7 and AP-7, and both Málaga and Gibraltar airports are within easy reach. Several of the coast’s best-known golf courses are a short drive inland.

Typologies and prices

Prices VAT excluded, from the developer price list dated February 2026, subject to availability and change.

Payment Plan

Construction and delivery

The project is sold off-plan. The developer’s dossier states that it was prepared on the basis of the Basic Project filed for the construction licence, which means the licence had not yet been granted when the documentation was issued. No delivery date has been published by the developer, so we have deliberately left that field blank rather than estimate it, and the same applies to the total count of parking spaces and storerooms across the scheme. We are asking the developer to confirm all three.

Four homes remain from the February 2026 price list — one ground-floor apartment, one middle-floor apartment, one duplex penthouse and one beachfront villa. If you would like the floor plans, the full specification or an updated availability check before you travel, get in touch and we will request them directly from the developer.
