There has never been a better time to invest in Southern Spain. Even in a post-pandemic climate, there are plenty of reasons to buy property on the Costa del Sol. The nearest city is Malaga, a centre of culture and a sun-drenched lifestyle, but is also adorned with glamorous cities such as Marbella, and stunning beauty spots such as Nerja. The Costa del Sol attracts millions of visitors each year, throughout the year, and is a prime investment choice for property connoisseurs.
These are the main four reasons to buy property on the Costa del Sol:
The Strategic Location of the Costa del Sol
Situated on the south-eastern coast of Spain with the spectacular sierras of Andalucía stretching out behind it, and the sparkling Mediterranean at its feet, the Costa del Sol is renowned worldwide for its sophisticated cities and luxurious marinas such as Marbella and Puerto Banus, and the charms of white Andalusian villages. Conveniently connected to international airports such as those of Malaga and Gibraltar by an excellent network of roads, the Costa del Sol appeals to holiday makers and residents alike. From Malaga, major European cities such as Paris, Vienna, Rome, and Copenhagen are a mere 2 to 4-hour flight away; idyllic for those wanting to benefit from all the opportunities of modern lifestyle in one of the world’s most sought-after destinations, without sacrificing their privacy and natural setting.
Hotter Summers, Milder Winters
One of the most appealing aspects of the Costa del Sol is the glorious weather, with an average of 320 days of sunshine every year, attracting holiday makers, property investors and long-term residents alike. Here, the weather is warm enough to be able to take a dip in the sea late into the autumn, and for winter walks in the beautiful hillsides or along the beach to be drenched in sunshine. Outdoor activities take place all year round and there is no doubt that the brightness and optimism that is part of the personality of the area is sparked by that sunshine from which the region takes its name.
Short and Long Stays
As one of Europe’s most popular coastal regions, the Costa del Sol is an acclaimed holiday destination for people from all over the world, even in the wake of the global pandemic. Many city-based professionals have decided to relocate to its open, relaxed spaces and work from home. This has inevitably increased the value of property investments on the Costa del Sol, a widely international, key holiday destination. Whether coming for a long time, or a good time, this region is proving to be increasingly popular with nationalities from all over the globe as people seek a more leisurely, but no less luxurious, lifestyle.
A Complete Lifestyle for the Whole Family
Arguably one of the most prominent reasons that gives the Costa del Sol a great edge when it comes to investing in property is that the area offers a comprehensive lifestyle for the whole family. There is something for everyone in this area: a gentle pace of life for those enjoying their retirement; adrenaline-filled activities such as abseiling, canyoning or kite-surfing for younger generations; horse riding academies and tournament grade golf courses; exclusive restaurants for romantic fine-dining, or stretches of sandy beaches with sheltered coves or beach clubs – variety to cater for all tastes. The Costa del Sol benefits from state-of-the-art hospitals and health clinics, in addition to superb educational facilities, boasting some top international schools with links to some of the world’s best universities. Add to that the rock-star glamour of cities such as Marbella, just a short drive from the leisurely luxury of Sotogrande, and the Costa del Sol really is one of the world’s most attractive locations.
