Where we work

Covering the whole Costa del Sol

From Benalmádena to Estepona, with special focus on Fuengirola, Mijas and Marbella.

Benalmádena

Family-friendly beaches, the cable car and the marina, a short drive from Málaga airport.

Fuengirola

Our home base: a lively seafront promenade and some of our most-booked apartments year-round.

Mijas

From whitewashed Mijas Pueblo to the golf resorts of Mijas Costa — a favourite for longer stays.

Marbella

Puerto Banús glamour and quieter residential areas alike, home to our premium villa listings.

Estepona

The Costa del Sol's "garden town," with a restored old quarter and a calmer pace than its neighbours.

Torremolinos, Calahonda and beyond

We also manage properties in the towns in between — wherever you land on the Costa del Sol, we're likely already there.
