1.50 € for a coffee with this view

At Las Ramblas Golf in Costa Blanca, and in most restaurants and coffee shops, a simple espresso costs just around 1.5 € — and it’s not just the price but the lifestyle that draws so many Northern Europeans here.

Costa Blanca remains one of the most attractive regions in Spain for international buyers. The top five nationalities investing in property here are: British 🇬🇧 Dutch 🇳🇱 Germans 🇩🇪 Scandinavians 🇸🇪🇩🇰🇳🇴 and French 🇫🇷

Why do they keep coming?

Sunshine all year with over 300 days of sun

Affordable lifestyle with a lower cost of living and daily comforts

Mediterranean way of life with slow food and community spirit

Scandinavians are drawn to modern villas with sea views, Germans and Dutch love golf course homes, and British buyers still dominate the resale market. Many already call Costa Blanca their second home.

In recent days, Las Ramblas Golf, excellently managed by Arturo Manzano, hosted the Spanish Championship for Second Category players on one of the most technical and iconic courses on the coast. It’s one of my personal favorites too, not only to recommend to clients looking for golf front villas but also to train myself, especially with the newly expanding driving range.

When our clients considering relocating to Costa Blanca ask me about the cost of living in this part of Spain, I tell them — it’s not quite as cheap as the coffee here (though in Northern Europe, a coffee would typically cost 3 to 4 €), but overall, life here is much more affordable. And the coffee? Amazing!
