New Build Apartment Eklipse For Sale in Torremolinos
Eklipse is an off-plan apartment development in Torremolinos, Málaga, positioned on elevated ground facing a Mediterranean pine forest with views towards the sea. The complex, designed by Clavel Arquitectos, offers one- to three-bedroom homes with covered terraces, a communal outdoor pool, a heated indoor pool, a spa with sauna, a gym and co-working space. Prices start from €418,000, with delivery indicated for the first quarter of 2030. The centre of Torremolinos lies roughly 13 km west of Málaga city, with the nearest beach about 500 metres away as the crow flies.
Project Analysis
Location
The development stands in an urban part of Torremolinos near the coast, with amenities within walking distance. Playa del Bajondillo lies about 500 metres away in a straight line, while the Cercanías train station is roughly 100 metres from the site. Málaga Airport sits 6.7 km away, and the gradient towards the beach measures 10.8%, which means part of the walk back is steep.
Layout
The homes combine an open-plan living area with a separate, quieter bedroom zone. Each unit includes a covered private terrace with sea views, fitted wardrobes, a storage room and a parking space in the underground garage; penthouses add a solarium. Communal facilities include a gym, sauna, indoor heated pool and co-working space, covering both leisure and home-working needs.
Project Status
Eklipse is an off-plan project with delivery indicatively scheduled for the first quarter of 2030. The entry-level unit in the published price list is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment of 81 m² from €418,000. As construction has not yet been completed, buyers purchase on the basis of plans, specifications and the developer's delivery schedule rather than a finished home.
Points of Attention
Two points of attention are recorded for this location: noise from the nearby highway and a degree of car dependency for certain journeys. The terrain slopes steeply towards the beach, which affects walking routes. These factors are part of the location's character and should be weighed against its strong points, such as rail access and walkable amenities.
Lifestyle & Surroundings
This project suits buyers who want a low-maintenance coastal home within a functioning town rather than an isolated resort. A buyer working remotely can use the co-working space and the 100-metre walk to the Cercanías station for trips to Málaga, roughly 13 km away. Someone seeking a second home benefits from the 6.7 km distance to Málaga Airport, among the shortest airport-to-home distances on this coast, and from having a supermarket, pharmacy and dozens of restaurants within walking distance. Retirees or part-year residents may value the heated indoor pool and spa for the cooler months, when the sea sits below 20°C for most of the year outside the roughly four-month swimming season. The one- to three-bedroom layouts with sea-view terraces and included storage also fit an investor's brief, given Torremolinos's sustained tourist demand, 52 hotels and over 20,000 beds indicate a deep rental market. The project fits less well for buyers who want absolute tranquillity, since highway noise is recorded at this location, or for those who plan every journey on foot, as the steep gradient to the beach and the car dependency noted for some trips favour residents who either drive or use the train. Buyers who want a completed home should note delivery is indicatively the first quarter of 2030.
Build Quality & Finishing
The architecture is by Clavel Arquitectos, with a Mediterranean contemporary design that prioritises natural light, large windows connect the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area directly to a covered private terrace with panoramic sea views. Bedrooms have fitted wardrobes as standard, and the sleeping zone is set apart from the living area to reduce noise transfer between day and night functions. Every apartment includes a storage room, and each home comes with a dedicated parking space in the underground garage. Penthouses add a private solarium, extending usable outdoor space beyond the covered terrace. Climate control covers both hot and cold air conditioning, which matters in a location where average annual temperature is 18.6°C but summer peaks and cool winter evenings both occur. Bathrooms are finished with marble-look tiling according to the project imagery, and interiors follow a contemporary palette. The communal offer is a significant part of the technical programme: an outdoor pool, a heated indoor pool, a spa with sauna, a gym and a co-working space, set within landscaped gardens with native planting and walking paths. As the project is off-plan, exact material specifications are defined in the developer's building description, and finishes shown in renderings are indicative until confirmed contractually.
Price & Context
Price & Availability
Eklipse is a new-build project with a published price list. Prices start from €418,000, and the published range runs up to €723,000. The reference unit is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment of 81 m² with a covered terrace, storage room and underground parking space included. Higher price points correspond to larger layouts and penthouses with solariums. As the project is off-plan with delivery indicatively in the first quarter of 2030, availability depends on the current sales status of individual units, and final specifications and prices are confirmed by the developer at reservation. Comparable new-build projects in Torremolinos currently list from between roughly €357,500 and €428,000.
Context & Surroundings
Daily life at Eklipse revolves around an elevated position between the town and the pine-covered slopes behind it. The nearest beach, Playa del Bajondillo, lies about 500 metres away in a straight line, and the descent to the seafront involves a gradient of roughly 10.8%, so the return walk climbs noticeably. The immediate area is urban and well-served: a supermarket sits 848 metres away, a pharmacy 636 metres, and within two kilometres there are around 192 restaurants, 37 cafés, 11 banks and 24 pharmacies, alongside a school and several dentists. Torremolinos station for the Cercanías commuter train is approximately 100 metres from the site, connecting residents to Málaga and Fuengirola without a car, an unusual strength for a coastal development. A hospital lies 3.2 km away. The town itself is one of the most established resorts on the Costa del Sol, with 71,329 registered inhabitants in 2025, so it functions year-round rather than only in summer: there are 13 primary schools, 9 secondary schools, 2 health centres and 193 sports facilities. Within the complex, the landscaped gardens with native planting, outdoor pool, heated indoor pool, spa and gym support a routine built around outdoor living. Penthouses with solariums extend that routine onto the roof. The recorded highway noise and the car dependency for some trips are part of the balance buyers should consider against the walkability and rail links.
Location: Torremolinos
Living & Surroundings
The surroundings combine urban convenience with proximity to green space. The complex faces a Mediterranean pine forest, and viewpoints such as Mirador Los Cañones (1.2 km) and Pico Palomas (3.6 km) offer walking destinations on the inland side. Sports facilities nearby include an orienteering circuit at Los Manantiales (0.8 km), a football pitch at El Pozuelo (0.9 km) and the municipal Virgen del Carmen swimming pool (1.0 km). The beach offer is broad: Playa del Bajondillo at 0.5 km, El Gato Beach at 0.5–1.7 km depending on access point, Playa del Lido at 0.7 km and La Carihuela at roughly 1.7 km. Golfers reach Campo de Golf Miguel Ángel Jiménez at 1.6 km, with further courses at 4.4 km and 5.6 km. Daily errands are walkable: supermarket at 848 m and pharmacy at 636 m, and a hospital at 3.2 km. Public transport comprises 16 lines with 93 stops across the municipality, plus three nearby train stations, Torremolinos (0.1 km), El Pinillo (1.9 km) and La Colina (2.3 km). The recorded highway noise and partial car dependency are relevant context for anyone sensitive to traffic sound.
Map & Location
The map shows Eklipse's elevated position in Torremolinos, west of Málaga city. Markers indicate the nearest beaches (0.5–1.8 km), the train station 100 m away, the airport 6.7 km to the east and golf courses to the north. All distances are straight-line; actual routes are longer.
Accessibility & Amenities
| Playa del Bajondillo | 0.5 km |
| Malaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) | 6 km |
| Gibraltar (GIB) | 92 km |
| Torremolinos | 0.1 km |
| El Pinillo | 1.9 km |
Distances in this section are straight-line, as the crow flies; road distances and travel times are longer. Málaga Airport is 6.7 km away, and the existing project description indicates a drive of around 5 minutes; Gibraltar's airport lies roughly 92 km away. Málaga city centre is about 13 km from Torremolinos, with a stated driving time of roughly 10 minutes, and Marbella sits 37 km further west. The nearest beach is 0.5 km away, but the 10.8% gradient makes the descent and return climb a factor for daily beach use. The strongest accessibility feature is rail: the Cercanías station is 100 m from the development, linking to Málaga and Fuengirola. For electric-vehicle drivers, the nearest charging points are 4.0–5.0 km away, which requires planning. Within 2 km, residents count 192 restaurants, 37 cafés, 11 banks and 24 pharmacies.

Nature & Climate
Torremolinos sits at 57 m above sea level, and the Eklipse site occupies elevated ground facing pine forest, giving the homes their sea orientation while remaining inside the town. The climate is Mediterranean: average annual temperature is 18.6°C, and the swimming season, when sea water reaches 20°C or more, lasts about four months, concentrated in summer. Outside that window, the heated indoor pool extends usable swimming to the rest of the year. Sunshine hours are characteristic of the Costa del Sol, one of Europe's sunniest coastlines, supporting terrace use across most months. The slope between the site and the sea (10.8%) shapes outdoor life: the walk down to Playa del Bajondillo is short but steep. The pine forest immediately facing the complex provides green outlook and walking routes, while inland viewpoints at 1.2–4.2 km add hillside recreation.

Location in the Region
Torremolinos lies immediately west of Málaga city (13 km), making it the closest of the major Costa del Sol resorts to the provincial capital and its airport. Marbella sits 37 km to the southwest and Granada 101 km to the northeast, both reachable for day trips. As the first resort developed on this coast and still among the most visited, the town combines year-round services with strong rental demand, positioning Eklipse between the urban convenience of Málaga and the resort towns further west.

Regional Comparison
Within Torremolinos itself, Eklipse competes directly with three new-build projects: Residencial Living Gardens (from €357,500), Kosmos (from €405,000) and Kool Homes (from €428,000). At a starting price of €418,000, Eklipse sits in the middle of that band, above Living Gardens and Kosmos, marginally below Kool Homes. What separates it is the combination of an elevated, pine-facing position with sea views, architecture by a named practice (Clavel Arquitectos) and an unusually extensive wellness programme: a heated indoor pool and spa alongside the standard outdoor pool, plus a gym and co-working space. Buyers comparing projects purely on price per square metre will find cheaper entry points nearby, but few Torremolinos developments within this band bundle the full wellness package. Regionally, Torremolinos positions differently from Benalmádena or Fuengirola further west: its distance to Málaga city (13 km) and the airport (6.7 km) is shorter, and the Cercanías line, with a station 100 m from the site, gives it a transport profile closer to a Málaga suburb than a detached resort. Against Marbella (37 km west, from where new-build pricing is substantially higher), Torremolinos offers a lower entry level with a denser, more year-round service structure: 13 primary schools, 9 secondary schools and 2 health centres support permanent residency, while 52 hotels and more than 20,000 tourist beds indicate a deep rental market for investors. The recorded highway noise and the steep gradient to the beach are the trade-offs buyers should weigh when comparing this address with flatter, quieter sites further from the transport corridors.
