Discover your perfect home at NUBAY: Which property is right for you?
Choosing a new home on the Costa del Sol is about far more than finding the right location. The type of property you buy will shape how you enjoy your new home, whether you’re planning to relocate permanently, enjoy regular escapes by the sea or invest in a luxury second home.
One of the reasons NUBAY has generated so much interest is the variety of homes available within the development. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach, this exclusive beachfront project has been carefully designed to cater to different lifestyles while maintaining the same exceptional standards throughout.
Located in Manilva on one of the few remaining frontline beach plots along the Costa del Sol, NUBAY features modern architecture, sweeping Mediterranean vistas, and a highly sought-after connection to the sea.
So, which NUBAY property is most suited to your lifestyle?
Stylish apartments designed for modern living
At the heart of NUBAY are 66 beautifully designed two, three and four-bedroom apartments, created to make the most of their exceptional coastal setting.
Spacious open-plan living areas connect naturally with generous private terraces, creating bright interiors perfectly suited to life on the Costa del Sol. Floor-to-ceiling glazing brings abundant natural light into the homes, while high-quality finishes and carefully selected materials create a contemporary yet welcoming feel.
Whether used as a permanent residence, holiday home or place to spend longer periods in southern Spain, the apartments combine luxury with the convenience and easy maintenance of a modern residential development.
Ground-floor homes with private gardens
For buyers who prioritise outdoor space but don’t necessarily want the responsibilities of a detached villa, NUBAY’s ground-floor apartments offer an attractive alternative.
Private gardens extend the living space outdoors, providing room for relaxing, dining and entertaining throughout much of the year. This additional space can be particularly appealing to families, pet owners or anyone who simply wants the freedom of a garden within a secure residential community.
Selected homes also offer the option of a private swimming pool, adding another dimension to outdoor living while residents continue to enjoy NUBAY’s extensive communal facilities.
Middle-floor apartments with Mediterranean views
NUBAY’s middle-floor apartments make the most of the development’s beachfront position, combining privacy with impressive Mediterranean views.
Large terraces become a natural extension of the living areas and provide generous outdoor space for dining, relaxing and enjoying the Costa del Sol climate. Their position within the development allows owners to experience the sea as part of everyday life, while contemporary interiors and premium specifications provide all the comforts expected of a new luxury home.
Penthouses with panoramic views
For buyers seeking space and privacy, NUBAY’s penthouses occupy some of the development’s most privileged positions.
Expansive terraces and private rooftop solariums offer panoramic views across the Mediterranean towards Gibraltar and, on clear days, the North African coastline. These generous outdoor areas provide space for dining, entertaining and relaxing in the sun.
For those who might traditionally have considered a villa, a penthouse can offer an appealing alternative, combining generous proportions and substantial private outdoor areas with the security, convenience and facilities of an exclusive residential community.
Five exclusive beachfront villas
Completing NUBAY are an exclusive collection of just five luxury villas, representing some of the development’s most select properties.
The detached homes combine spacious interiors with private gardens, swimming pools and contemporary architecture, providing greater independence and privacy while retaining access to the extensive facilities and surroundings of the wider development.
New-build villas in genuine frontline beach locations are increasingly difficult to find on the Costa del Sol, making this limited collection a particularly interesting option for buyers seeking space, privacy and direct proximity to the Mediterranean.
NUBAY is under construction

NUBAY is now under construction, bringing the development firmly from concept to reality. The latest news from the site is that work is progressing and the buildings are beginning to take shape alongside the Mediterranean.
Construction is moving ahead towards an estimated completion and delivery in the second quarter of 2028. With just nine units currently available and prices starting from €1,325,000, the remaining selection is now limited. Availability can change as construction progresses, so buyers interested in NUBAY are advised to request the latest information on individual properties, floor plans and prices.
Developed and constructed by Hercesa

Hercesa, the long-established Spanish construction firm with over 50 years of experience, is developing and building NUBAY. Hercesa has developed residential and other real estate projects in Spain and internationally, bringing considerable experience to this rare beachfront site in Manilva.
At NUBAY, attention has been given not only to architecture and interior specifications but also to the performance and comfort of the homes. Features include energy-efficient construction, aerothermal systems and home automation, while buyers can also personalise selected finishes to create a home that reflects their own preferences.
A privileged position in Manilva
The location is a key aspect of the NUBAY concept. Positioned in Manilva at the western tip of the Costa del Sol, the development occupies a frontline position by Playa de la Chullera, with the Mediterranean Sea directly in front.
Manilva maintains a unique character while offering excellent transport links, with Sotogrande nearby, Estepona easily accessible and Gibraltar and its international airport within convenient reach.
Despite this connectivity, the immediate surroundings have a distinctly relaxed feel, shaped by the coastline and green spaces. NUBAY features around 5,000m2 of private landscaped gardens for residents, along with a further 13,500m2 of green space between the development and the seafront.
Exceptional facilities for residents
Whichever type of property you choose, all NUBAY owners will benefit from the same high standards and extensive communal facilities.
Residents will have access to landscaped gardens and swimming pools, alongside a spa with Turkish bath and sauna, a fully equipped gym and indoor and outdoor coworking areas. Children’s areas and communal spaces for relaxing and socialising complete an environment designed to work equally well as a permanent home or luxury coastal retreat.
Which NUBAY home is right for you?
One of NUBAY’s greatest strengths is the choice it offers. A couple searching for an elegant second home might favour an apartment with a generous sea-facing terrace, while families may appreciate the additional outdoor space of a ground-floor home with a private garden. Those looking for greater privacy and expansive views may be drawn towards a penthouse or one of the five exclusive villas.
With construction underway, estimated delivery scheduled for the second quarter of 2028 and only nine units currently available, NUBAY is now entering an important stage.
