Costa del Sol Properties For Sale

The Costa del Sol, which is Mediterranean shore of Andalucia, from the Straits of Gibraltar to Almeria and is very well known to holidaymakers and homebuyers.

New developments here are stylish, low-rise and designed to blend as unobtrusively as possible with the environment, many using traditional materials and motifs taken from the vernacular architecture of Andalucia. Tourists and residents enjoy this area, with its popular towns such as Marbella and Puerto Banús. As new marinas are being built, a transient population of yachtsmen fills the sea-front bars from Malaga to Sotogrande. Golfers come too, in ever-larger numbers, to enjoy the long golfing season.

The climate is a supreme asset of this region, with mild winters and hot summers, due to the protection afforded by the Sierras and the close proximity to Africa. Besides favouring the practice of outdoor sports, the region's pleasant weather attracts elderly visitors and temporary residents who, like migratory birds, fly every winter to Malaga and repopulate Torremolinos, Fuengirola, Benalmádena and Nerja. The stretch of the coast east of Málaga is less developed and maintains a more pronounced Spanish character, which is surrounded by the impressive mountain scenery of the Axarquia. The upgrading and replacement of roads and other facilities is on-going, with large-scale investment in water treatment and sewerage systems, hospitals, schools and leisure facilities, plus talk of new theme parks. - All in all, the area is very much in the middle of a renaissance.
