About the Costa del Sol

The Mediterranean, at its finest.

Between the mountains and the sea, the Costa del Sol runs from Málaga to Sotogrande. Marbella offers the widest choice, from the Golden Mile to the old town; Benahavís is quieter, greener and known for privacy and golf; Estepona has a lively old town and a growing new-build market; Mijas balances village life with beaches below; and Sotogrande offers space and discretion around its marina and polo fields.

  • Beaches, marinas and beach clubs.
  • Some of Europe’s best golf.
  • International schools along the coast.
  • Málaga airport within an hour of every town.
  • A short flight or train to Madrid.
