In a world marked by geopolitical and economic uncertainty, some places stand out for their stability, quality of life, and potential for capital appreciation. Málaga —and especially the Golden Triangle of the Costa del Sol (Marbella, Benahavís, and Estepona)— is now one of those privileged destinations.
According to the latest data published by the DOM3 association (reported by El Economista), these three municipalities reached their highest historical property prices in June 2025:
- Marbella: €5,213/m²
- Benahavís: €5,071/m²
- Estepona: €3,906/m²
These figures double the national average (€2,438/m²) and even surpass major cities like Madrid (€4,289/m²) or Palma de Mallorca (€4,996/m²), based on data from Tinsa.
Annual price growth in the area ranges between 8.3% and 14.9%, confirming a sustained upward trend even in a globally complex context.
🌍 Strong and Growing International Demand
While other European markets show signs of cooling, the Costa del Sol remains a secure investment haven, especially in the luxury property segment. In the first quarter of 2025 alone, 34.75% of property purchases in Málaga were made by foreign buyers, and in the Golden Triangle, that figure exceeds 90% (El Economista).
What’s more, Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport broke its historical record with 12.39 million passengers in the first half of 2025 (+7.8% year-on-year). Hotel occupancy has not increased proportionally, suggesting that many visitors already own a property in the area or are actively in the process of buying.
