Dreaming of a holiday home with sea views on the Costa del Sol without paying Marbella prices? There are still areas where you can get excellent value for money.
While property prices in Marbella, Fuengirola and Benalmádena have risen significantly in recent years, there are still attractive alternatives further west along the Costa del Sol.
Manilva – The Costa del Sol’s Best Kept Secret
Manilva is one of the most affordable areas on the Costa del Sol. Located between Estepona and Sotogrande, it offers a relaxed Spanish lifestyle, beautiful beaches, golf courses and stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea.
Here, you can still find sea view apartments at prices that are often considerably lower than similar properties in Marbella and Fuengirola.
Manilva is particularly popular with:
Holiday home buyers
Property investors
Retirees
Families looking for more property for their money
La Duquesa – Marina, Beach and Sea Views
La Duquesa is known for its charming marina, excellent restaurants and relaxed atmosphere.
The area offers a wide selection of apartments and penthouses with sea views, often within walking distance of both the beach and the marina.
Many international buyers choose La Duquesa because it offers:
Lower property prices
A beautiful marina
Excellent golf courses
Easy access to Gibraltar
Stunning Mediterranean views
It is still possible to find sea view properties for under €300,000, something that has become increasingly difficult in many other parts of the Costa del Sol.
Casares Costa – Luxury Living at a Lower Price
Casares Costa is located between Estepona and Manilva and has become one of the most attractive areas for buyers seeking value for money.
Here you will find modern apartments, new developments and exclusive residential communities with sea views at prices that are often significantly lower than in Estepona.
Benefits of Casares Costa:
Beautiful beaches
New residential developments
World-class golf courses
Close proximity to Estepona
Strong rental potential
Many of the newer developments offer large terraces with panoramic views of the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and even Africa.
