Calella de Palafrugell, Costa Brava, SpainSince the first package holidays were offered to Spain in the 1960s its popularity as both a holiday and investment destination has remained undimmed.

Even today when cheaper air fares have made more of the world affordable and accessible, Spain still ranks as the number one destination after nearly 50 years for five key reasons:

  • Accessibility - a network of airports across the country operating all year round and good inward infrastructure
  • Affordability - whilst prices have rocketed in some areas for buyers there are still bargains to be had and the wealth of holiday property for rental keeps prices keen for tourists
  • Quality - if you pick your investment property or holiday rental wisely you can get a lot for your money
  • Wide appeal - holidaymakers, second home owners, business owners, family relocations, retired…there’s something for everyone in Spain
  • Investment potential - whilst the ‘rock bottom’ bargains may have gone, any investment in Spain can generally be a lower risk than emerging countries
