Sun, sea, sand and short flights from home – Spain’s islands have been firm family favourites for decades among tourists and property buyers alike. Our recent survey showed that almost 1/4 of our readers want to buy in the Balearics or Canaries, so this week, I’m looking at the very best, family-friendly islands to purchase a home.
There are so many reasons to buy a home in Spain – wonderful climate, great way of life, the cuisine, the people and all-year-round sport, in particular, golf. Spain has a total of 398 golf courses on the mainland, 23 in the Balearic Islands and 24 in the Canary Islands.
The UK government has reminded expats in Spain to ensure that they have exchanged their old green ID cards for a TIE card, ahead of the introduction of the new EES system.
Halfway through the year is a fitting time for a review of key property markets. We summarise conditions and pick out headline trends in our favourite destinations as summer 2024 starts to hot up.
