eastern costa del sol - spain

THE AREA
Spain's Costa del Sol offers a perfect Mediterranean climate, a shining sea, and miles of sandy beaches. It is no wonder that many of the old fishing villages here have grown into resorts that cater to an international clientele.

Starting 20-30 miles east of Malaga and its airport, the eastern part of the Costa del Sol centers around the small seaside resorts of Nerja, Almuñecar, and Salobreña. Though not off the beaten track, this area tends to be less crowded, with a more traditional flavor than the western end of the Costa del Sol, around Marbella. It is nearly always sunny here-perfect for enjoying the beaches and the world-class golf, tennis, and equestrian clubs. For a highly recommended day trip, try heading inland, across the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains to Granada. This historic city is home to the magnificent Alhambra Palace, and it is only about an hour's drive from the coast.

PROPERTIES
We feature attractive villas, low-rise townhouses, and apartments-and a few traditional old farmhouses and converted mills-in several locations east of Malaga. Some of our homes are set in attractively landscaped resort communities, with communal pools and other facilities. Other homes are set on the outskirts of a town or village, or inland, in splendid seclusion. Most larger villas have their own pools, while smaller villas and apartments usually share a pool.

Choose from properties in and around the picturesque old town of Nerja-known as the "Balcony of Europe" for its dazzling sea views. Just to the east, Almuñecar and Salobreña retain an Old World atmosphere, with their narrow, flower-filled streets and centuries-old Moorish buildings. And wherever you are on this part of the coast, you will be just a short drive from some beautiful sandy beaches.

This is only an introduction to our properties on the eastern Costa del Sol. Please contact us for flyers describing individual homes.
