If you've spent any time in Salinas, you already know that Chipipe is where the Malecón gets quieter, the crowd thins out, and the beach becomes something you actually want to linger on. This fully furnished second-floor condo sits right at that sweet spot — directly across the street from the water, near the Yacht Club, with over 1,300 square feet of breezy, turnkey living space ready to welcome you at $120,000.
The Quiet End of the Malecón — And Why It Matters
Position is everything in Salinas, and this one is genuinely hard to beat. You're at the calm, residential end of the Malecón — close enough to the city's restaurants, shops, and the Yacht Club to enjoy them easily, but far enough from the busiest stretches to come home to actual peace and quiet. The beach is literally across the street. That's not a selling point — that's just your daily commute.
The Building: Amenities That Go Beyond the Basics
Built in 2016 from concrete block and finished with a flat concrete roof, this 12-story building was designed for people who want more than just four walls and a parking spot:
- Community swimming pool
- BBQ area for those inevitable beach-day cookouts
- Sauna and steam room — resort-level recovery, every day
- Social spaces designed for casual gatherings
- 1 assigned garage parking space
- Private storage bodega in the building's garage
Inside: Bright, Breezy, and Beautifully Organized
At 1,345 sq ft (125 m²), the layout of this second-floor unit is one of its strongest features. Large sliding glass doors in the living and dining areas create a natural flow of light and ocean air that makes the entire space feel alive and open — this is the kind of airflow that reminds you why you moved to the coast in the first place.
- 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms
- Fully furnished with modern, neutral décor — genuinely turnkey
- Refrigerator, stove, oven, washing machine, and dryer included
- Split air conditioner and window unit — climate flexibility for every season
- Tile flooring throughout
- City, garden, and additional views from the unit
A Kitchen Built for Real Life
Unlike many condos where the kitchen is an afterthought squeezed into a corner, this one is a proper, separate kitchen with generous counter space, ample storage, and full appliances. Whether you're cooking for two on a quiet Tuesday or feeding a full house after a day at the beach, it handles both without complaint.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a dedicated service area adds a third full bathroom, extra storage, and a laundry room — the kind of practical bonus that beach living makes absolutely essential.
Three Bedrooms That Work Hard
The sleeping arrangements here are thoughtfully set up for maximum flexibility:
- The primary bedroom features a private ensuite bathroom and a walk-in closet — your personal retreat after a day in the sun
- The two additional bedrooms are each equipped with bunk beds, making them ideal for families, groups of friends, or maximizing rental occupancy
- A second full bathroom serves both guest rooms and the main living areas
- The third bathroom in the service area keeps traffic flowing smoothly when the unit is full
