The aptly named Costa del Sol spans 800km² along the south coast of Spain. It’s one of the most popular areas in Spain and welcomes tourists from all over every year. The area is immensely popular with international buyers as English is widely spoken.
Due to its coastal location, the Costa del Sol profits from the best of the Mediterranean climate and enjoys an average of 325 days of sun each year. In winter you can still expect to be sitting outside on the seafront or playing golf in your T-shirt. Speaking of golf, there are over 60 courses to discover and four of them feature in the world’s top 10. They are Valderrama, San Roque, Sotogrande and La Reserva.
Beachside fun includes every family-friendly entertainment you can imagine, great shopping opportunities, Michelin-starred restaurants, championship golf courses, marinas and spas – everything for the well-heeled him and her.
The hills overlooking the beaches are thronged with multimillion-euro villas, but alongside the upmarket resorts such as Marbella, Puerto Banús and Estepona, there are more affordable neighbourhoods like Torremolinos, Mijas and Fuengirola too. All are easy to reach from the airport at Málaga – you’ll appreciate the savings on car hire – and with so many flights that weekend trips really are doable.
Don’t forget the inland appeal. There are “white villages” that retain their age-old traditions and beyond that the rolling hills of olive and almond trees, with affordable country homes in the campo. The Costa del Sol has exciting cities, most notably Málaga, but with Granada, Seville and Cordoba all within reach.
How much does property for sale on the Costa del Sol go for? There’s a huge diversity of property prices in the Costa del Sol. Location is a key factor in house price. The cheaper end of the spectrum includes Estepona, while at the other end Mijas & the Mijas Coast are the most expensive.
If you’re willing to spend money and renovate a run-down home, you can purchase a property for as little as €60,000 in Andalusia and Malaga. If you’re looking for somewhere less needy, expect to pay up to €150,000 for a small townhouse or semi-detached home in need of a little TLC.
The second least expensive property type in the Costa del Sol is village homes or country homes. These are usually found inland, but still just a short journey from the coast.
There are fewer villas for sale in the Costa del Sol due to the lack of free land, therefore contractors have built up, rather than out. There are some beautiful apartments available all budgets and if you’re willing to head slightly further inland, you can find a villa for the same price (in the region of €220-€320,000) and might even get a pool too.
