Costa del Sol villas for sale

Villa buying on this coast is really seven different markets. Nueva Andalucía offers frontline-golf plots minutes above Puerto Banús. Benahavís gives you privacy, altitude and views towards Africa. The Golden Mile is a walk from the beach and priced accordingly, while Mijas Costa and Estepona still deliver a pool, a view and four bedrooms for under a million.

We look at plot orientation, build quality, licence history and the legal file before we promote anything. If a villa has an issue — an unlicensed extension, a boundary problem, an unregistered pool — we will tell you before you fall in love with it.

Every villa below is available for viewing this week, and we will drive you around the surrounding area and its facilities rather than simply opening the front door.
