Buying a villa at Alcudia Luz is a transparent and well-structured process. From the first visit to key handover, this article guides you step by step through the entire journey, including the interior customization options that make each home unique.
Phase 1: Plot and type selection (Weeks 1-2)
The first step is choosing which villa best suits your needs. At Alcudia Luz we offer:
Available types
- Homes 6.1 to 6.29: different configurations of 3 and 4 bedrooms
- Built area: between 180 m² and 250 m² depending on model
- Plots: from 400 m² to 600 m², with varied orientations
Criteria for choosing your plot
- Orientation: south/southeast for maximum light; north/northwest if you prefer less heat in summer
- Views: some plots have distant views of the bay or Serra de Tramuntana
- Privacy: corner plots offer greater separation from neighbors
- Proximity to common areas: if you value direct access to pool and community gardens
Sales team advice
"We recommend visiting the plots at different times of day. Morning light, midday sun and sunset can completely change your perception of the space."
