Costa del Sol, Málaga
Mijas Pueblo offers village charm and mountain views; Mijas Costa and the golf valleys (Calanova, La Cala Golf, Mijas Golf) offer spacious, green, low-density living; La Cala de Mijas is a relaxed beach town with a strong restaurant scene and a growing number of new developments.
British and Irish buyers have long favoured Mijas, joined in recent years by Scandinavian, Dutch, Belgian and French buyers. Many are looking for space, gardens and golf, whether for permanent living or long holidays.
Detached villas, townhouses in gated golf communities, contemporary new-build apartments in La Cala and Calanova, and country properties in the hills.
La Cala de Mijas is roughly 30 minutes from Málaga Airport via the A-7 or AP-7. Mijas Pueblo is around 25 minutes. A car is recommended in most parts of the municipality.
Mijas offers more space for the money than the central coast, a strong golf and outdoor lifestyle, and an unusually broad range of new developments.
Very good for permanent living and holiday homes; investment appeal depends on location, with La Cala and the golf areas attracting strong holiday rental demand.
