Costa del Sol/Area Guide

It is important to carefully consider what area of the Costa del Sol you wish to purchase a property in. Here is a little information about the coastal and inland areas.

Coastal Areas

Between Málaga and Gibraltar the coastline has seen frantic pace in the construction of new buildings, both commercial and residential. Every year we seem to have a new "Golden Mile" with the appropriate prices!
Nevertheless you can still find oasises of quiet areas with a less hectic pace.

At Lifestyle Property Europe we carefully select the properties that we sell. Only if it meets our requirements in budget, settings and location, will we add it to our portfolio.

Inland Areas

We cover the inland "campo" and towns such as Alhaurín el Grande, Alhaurín de la Torre, Cártama, Coín, Alora, Monda, etc.

Prices tend to be cheaper the further north you go, but be aware of the logistics. It is no fun to go out for a litre of milk and face a two hour drive.

Most of our clients opt for property up to one hour inland, we advise 45 minutes to be sensible.

Within these limitations you will find everything from rustic fincas, new style apartments, townhouses, and even property on a golf course.
Some areas have several new golf courses being constructed which makes these properties a good purchase, even if you don´t play golf because of the rental income potential.

Property prices in these locations can also increase substantially due to the fact that sports complexes, spas, hotels and restaurants always seem to follow the initial constructions, which makes the area far more attractive to future purchasers .
