Best Locations to Buy Property on the Costa Blanca
Costa Blanca ranks among Spain’s top real estate investment spots due to its sunny climate, stunning beaches, and strong rental yields. In 2026, expect price growth of 5-9% with returns of 5-8% in premium areas.
Why Invest in Costa Blanca
The region boasts over 300 sunny days yearly, 200 km of coastline, and easy access via Alicante, Murcia, and Valencia airports. An international community makes up over 45% of buyers, ensuring liquidity and rental demand with under 5% vacancy rates. Sea-view apartments range from €2,500/m² in Torrevieja to €4,000/m² in Altea.
Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa
Torrevieja suits budget investors with prices from €2,500/m² and 6-7% yields from tourist rentals. Popular areas like La Zenia, Cabo Roig, and Punta Prima draw expats with nearby beaches, salt lakes, and low maintenance costs (€300-800/year). Growth of 5-9% is projected for 2026 due to booming tourism.
Benidorm
Known as the “Manhattan of the Mediterranean,” Benidorm excels in short-term rentals with 80% occupancy and 7-8% ROI. Prices hit €3,500/m² off the frontline, backed by prime Levante and Poniente beaches. It attracts 3 million tourists annually, fueling property value rises.
Calpe and Altea
Calpe captivates with the iconic Peñón de Ifach rock, beaches, and prices of €3,500-5,000/m², strong on villa demand. Altea offers an artistic vibe, luxury Altea Hills, and a serene setting with 5-8% yields. The northern corridor (Javea-Moraira) sees 8-12% annual appreciation from limited supply.
Javea and Moraira
Javea (Xàbia) blends a harbor, old town, and Arenal beach, ideal for families at over €3,500/m². Moraira is exclusive with strict building rules, premium villas, and prices 20-40% above average. Both appeal to wealthy Europeans for long-term growth.
