The Costa del Sol’s deepest villa market, from the Golden Mile and Puerto Banús to the hillside urbanisations behind them, and the largest single municipality in the Spanish catalogue. Andalusia registers holiday lets as VUT, which most municipalities still accept.

Spain licenses short lets region by region: the Balearic ETV regime (new licences frozen since 2022); the Canary Islands VV regime (new licences frozen under Law 6/2025); the Catalan HUT regime (capped in stressed municipalities); Andalusia’s VUT registration (open in most municipalities), on top of the national registration number. Brixfox names the regime that applies to an area and reads the regional registers where they are published; it never states that a listing holds a licence.
A register hit means a licence exists at this location, not that it transfers with the sale: have a Spanish lawyer verify the transfer clause in the deed, the licence’s current status and the municipality’s renewal position before you commit.
Portal coordinates are blurred on part of the catalogue, so a pin can sit some distance from the property. Every listing is freehold and priced in EUR.
Matched on the listing's stated area; a villa described as two areas can appear under both. Prices in EUR as listed.
