Golf property on the Costa Blanca is an excellent choice for buyers who want year-round golf, Mediterranean beaches and a wide choice of established resorts within easy reach of Alicante Airport.
Popular locations include Las Colinas, La Finca, Villamartin and Lo Romero in the southern Costa Blanca, while La Sella near Dénia offers a different lifestyle in the north. Buyers can choose from low-maintenance apartments and townhouses to frontline golf villas and luxury contemporary homes.
The best location depends on whether your priorities are golf, beaches, everyday amenities, privacy, rental potential or permanent living.
Why Buy Golf Property on the Costa Blanca?
There is a reason the Costa Blanca has become one of Spain’s most established destinations for international property buyers.
Golf is certainly part of the attraction, but it isn’t the whole story.
The region combines excellent courses with beaches, coastal towns, restaurants, shopping, healthcare, international communities and convenient connections through Alicante-Elche Airport.
For a second-home buyer, that means you don’t have to organise every trip around playing golf. Partners, children, friends and family can enjoy the area just as much.
For permanent residents, there are established towns and communities where everyday life continues throughout the year.
And for golfers? Having a quality course minutes from your front door is difficult to beat.
Where Are the Best Golf Areas on the Costa Blanca?
One of the first decisions is whether to focus on the Costa Blanca South or Costa Blanca North.
| Area | Golf Property Appeal | Particularly Suited To |
|---|---|---|
| Costa Blanca South | High concentration of courses, resorts and international communities | Golfers, second-home owners and year-round residents |
| Orihuela Costa | Golf combined with easy access to beaches and coastal amenities | Buyers wanting an active holiday-home lifestyle |
| Algorfa / La Finca | Established resort living in a quieter setting | Buyers wanting golf with good everyday amenities |
| Las Colinas / Campoamor area | Premium contemporary property and natural surroundings | Luxury and lifestyle buyers |
| Dénia / Costa Blanca North | Mountains, coast, established towns and golf | Buyers prioritising scenery and Mediterranean lifestyle |
| Alicante area | Accessibility and proximity to a major city and airport | Frequent visitors and permanent residents |
There isn’t a universally “best” location. A resort that is perfect for a keen golfer buying a second home could be completely wrong for a family planning to relocate permanently.
That is why understanding the individual areas is so important.
Las Colinas Golf & Country Club: Premium Golf Living
Las Colinas Golf & Country Club is one of the standout choices for buyers looking for high-end golf property on the Costa Blanca.
The resort is set within extensive natural surroundings near Campoamor and has been developed with a noticeably low-density feel.
Its golf course is central to the experience, but owners also have access to restaurants, sports and wellness facilities, while the beaches of the Orihuela Costa are within driving distance.
Property at Las Colinas tends towards the premium end of the market. Contemporary architecture, large terraces, private pools and views across the surrounding landscape are common features of its newer developments and villas.
Camerons Golf’s current listings also illustrate the level of facilities available at the resort, including golf, a clubhouse, health and sports facilities, restaurants and 24-hour controlled access.
Who does Las Colinas suit?
Buyers who value privacy, contemporary design and natural surroundings, and who are prepared to pay more for a premium resort environment.
If Las Colinas sounds like the place for you, we have a range of available properties for sale on the resort.
La Finca Golf: An Excellent All-Round Choice
La Finca Golf near Algorfa is another of the Costa Blanca’s best-known golf communities.
It has a different feel from Las Colinas. While still offering attractive modern property and resort facilities, La Finca works particularly well for buyers looking for a balance between golf, everyday living and accessibility.
There are apartments, townhouses and villas around the resort, giving buyers a wider range of options depending on budget and how much maintenance they want.
The wider Algorfa area also means you aren’t completely dependent on the resort itself for everyday life.
For many buyers, that balance is precisely the attraction.
Who does La Finca suit?
Golfers looking for a second home, permanent residents and couples or families who want resort living without sacrificing access to local towns, beaches and amenities.
If La Finca sounds like the place for you, we have a range of available properties for sale on the resort.
Villamartin: Golf with an Established Community
Villamartin has long been popular with international residents and holiday-home owners.
Its appeal is quite different from a secluded luxury resort.
Here, you have golf combined with a busy surrounding community and easy access to restaurants, shops and the beaches of the Orihuela Costa.
That makes Villamartin particularly interesting for buyers who want plenty happening around them. If you’re buying with a non-golfing partner or expect friends and family to visit regularly, having amenities close at hand can make a significant difference.
Property in the wider Villamartin area is also varied, with apartments, townhouses and villas available rather than one particular style of resort property.
Who does Villamartin suit?
Buyers looking for an established international community, easy access to amenities and a golf property that is also well positioned for enjoying the wider Orihuela Costa.
Lo Romero Golf: A Quieter Alternative
Lo Romero Golf, near Pilar de la Horadada, is another location worth putting on your shortlist.
The course is perhaps best known for its memorable 18th hole, where the green is surrounded by water, earning it the “Golf Island” nickname.
From a property perspective, the surrounding area can appeal to buyers who prefer a quieter environment while still being within driving distance of beaches and established coastal towns.
Modern developments around Lo Romero have also broadened the choice for buyers who favour contemporary, low-maintenance homes.
Who does Lo Romero suit?
Buyers who want a more relaxed setting, modern property and convenient access to both golf and the southern Costa Blanca coastline.
La Sella Golf: Costa Blanca North
Not every Costa Blanca golf buyer should automatically head south.
La Sella Golf, close to Dénia and Jávea, provides a very different proposition.
The northern Costa Blanca is known for its mountain scenery, greener landscapes and attractive coastal towns. For buyers who love the lifestyle around Dénia and Jávea, having La Sella nearby adds golf without requiring them to live in a traditional southern golf resort.
This can be particularly appealing if your priority is the wider Mediterranean lifestyle first and golf second.
Who does La Sella suit?
Buyers drawn to Dénia, Jávea and the Costa Blanca North who want excellent golf nearby but don’t necessarily want their entire lifestyle centred around a golf resort.
Alenda Golf: Convenient for Alicante
Alenda Golf is inland from Alicante and provides another alternative to the better-known coastal resort areas.
Its location is one of its strengths. Alicante city and Alicante-Elche Airport are accessible, while buyers can enjoy a quieter residential environment away from the busiest coastal areas.
This can make it worth considering for frequent travellers or buyers who want golf access while maintaining convenient connections to a major Spanish city.
Who does Alenda suit?
Permanent residents, regular travellers and buyers who value airport and city accessibility as much as proximity to the coast.
What Types of Golf Property Can You Buy?
The Costa Blanca market isn’t limited to enormous villas overlooking the 18th green.
In fact, one of its strengths is the range of property available.
Apartments can be ideal for second-home buyers wanting something easy to lock up and leave. Communal pools and gardens can provide the outdoor lifestyle without requiring you to maintain them personally.
Townhouses provide a useful middle ground, often giving you more indoor and outdoor space than an apartment without the upkeep associated with a large detached villa.
Detached villas appeal to buyers wanting privacy, private pools and more outdoor space. They range from relatively modest homes to substantial contemporary properties.
Frontline golf villas and apartments put the course and views at the centre of the experience and are understandably popular with keen golfers.
At the premium end, luxury resort properties on developments such as Las Colinas can combine contemporary architecture, larger plots and extensive resort facilities.
The best property type depends less on what looks impressive online and more on how often you will actually use it.
Frontline Golf or Near the Course?
This is one of the most useful distinctions to make early in your search.
A frontline golf property can offer wonderful views and an unmistakable sense of living on the course. For a passionate golfer, that can be exactly what buying in Spain is all about.
But don’t automatically assume frontline is better.
A property five or ten minutes from the course might put you closer to the beach, restaurants or shops. It may provide more privacy, a different orientation or simply more property for your budget.
If golf is the main reason you’re buying, frontline deserves serious consideration.
If you’re creating a home that needs to work for golfers and non-golfers alike, compare both options before deciding.
Local Insight from Camerons Golf: Think Beyond Your First Round of Golf
Golf buyers understandably arrive with a list of courses they want nearby.
But when helping buyers compare properties, the conversation often becomes much broader.
Where will you have breakfast? Can you walk anywhere in the evening? What will your partner do while you’re playing? How long does it take to reach the beach? Where is the nearest supermarket? How easy will the journey from the airport feel after you’ve done it twenty times?
These everyday details often become more important than buyers initially expect.
A spectacular property on the perfect course isn’t necessarily the right home if the surrounding lifestyle doesn’t suit you.
We recommend spending time in several areas rather than viewing properties alone. Have lunch locally, drive to the beach, visit the supermarket and see how the resort feels once you’ve left the clubhouse.
It gives you a much better idea of what owning there will actually be like.
Is the Costa Blanca Suitable for Year-Round Living?
Yes, but choosing the right location matters.
Some buyers want the security and facilities of a dedicated golf community while others prefer to be closer to an established Spanish town.
If you’re planning to live in Spain permanently, look beyond the facilities you use on holiday.
Consider supermarkets, healthcare, schools where relevant, restaurants that remain open outside peak season, transport, social life and the practical journey to the airport.
Areas with established international and local communities can make the transition to permanent living easier, particularly if this is your first move abroad.
Can a Costa Blanca Golf Property Be a Good Investment?
It can be, but we’d separate buying a good property from assuming that every home on a golf course is automatically a good investment.
Established golf locations can attract international buyers and holidaymakers, and proximity to golf may broaden a property’s appeal to a specific audience.
However, future resale value and rental performance depend on much more than the name of the course.
Property condition, location within the resort, views, orientation, facilities, community costs, local supply and the strength of the wider area can all matter.
If rental income is important to your decision, check the current rules applying to the specific property and location before purchasing. Holiday-rental regulations and community restrictions need to be considered rather than assuming short-term letting will always be possible.
A good starting point is to choose a property you would be happy to own even without relying on a particular rental return.
What Should You Check Before Buying?
Once you’ve found a location you like, the property itself needs proper due diligence.
As well as price and condition, consider community fees, ongoing maintenance, orientation, parking, security, pool and garden upkeep, what is included with the property and whether any planned development nearby could affect your outlook.
For resort properties, understand exactly which facilities are included and which require separate membership or payment.
Independent legal advice is also important when purchasing property in Spain. Your lawyer can carry out the appropriate legal checks and explain the taxes, fees and purchasing structure relevant to your individual transaction.
That is preferable to relying on a generic percentage for “buying costs”, because the amount can vary depending on factors including whether you purchase a resale or new-build property.
Costa Blanca or Another Spanish Golf Region?
The Costa Blanca is an excellent all-rounder, but it isn’t automatically the right answer for everybody.
Murcia and the Costa Cálida can appeal to buyers looking for a quieter setting and potentially more property for their budget.
The Costa del Sol provides an exceptional concentration of prestigious courses and a mature luxury property market, although budgets can be considerably higher in its most sought-after areas.
If you’re still deciding between regions, read our guide to the best areas for buying a golf property in Spain.
Why Buy with Camerons Golf?
Camerons Golf specialises in golf property across the Costa Blanca, Murcia/Costa Cálida and Costa del Sol.
That specialist approach means we can help you look beyond the photographs and compare the things that actually matter when buying a golf home.
Is one resort better suited to permanent living? Would another give you easier access to the beach? Is a frontline property worth paying more for in your circumstances? Would you be happier in an established community or a quieter contemporary development?
Our role is to understand how you want to use your home and help narrow the search accordingly.

FAQs About Golf Property on the Costa Blanca
Where is the best place to buy golf property on the Costa Blanca?
It depends on the lifestyle you want. Las Colinas appeals to premium buyers seeking privacy and contemporary property, La Finca provides an excellent all-round resort lifestyle, Villamartin offers an established community, and Lo Romero provides a quieter alternative. La Sella is particularly attractive for buyers focused on the Costa Blanca North.
Is the Costa Blanca good for golfers?
Yes. The Costa Blanca has an excellent selection of golf courses within a relatively compact region, particularly around Alicante and the southern Costa Blanca. This makes it possible to have a home course nearby while still being able to play a variety of other courses during your stay.
Can foreigners buy property on the Costa Blanca?
Yes. International buyers can purchase property in Spain. The purchasing process includes legal, tax and administrative requirements, so it is sensible to use an independent Spanish lawyer who can carry out the necessary checks and advise on your individual circumstances.
Is it better to buy on a golf resort or near one?
That depends on your priorities. Resort property can provide immediate access to golf, attractive surroundings and communal facilities. Buying nearby may put you closer to beaches, towns and everyday amenities while keeping several courses within easy driving distance. We recommend comparing both before making a decision.
What is the best Costa Blanca golf resort for luxury property?
Las Colinas Golf & Country Club is one of the strongest options for buyers seeking premium contemporary property within a dedicated golf environment. However, “luxury” can mean different things to different buyers, so location, plot size, privacy, views and access to amenities should also form part of your comparison.
Are there affordable golf properties on the Costa Blanca?
Yes. Although some resorts contain multimillion-euro villas, golf property on the Costa Blanca covers a broad market. Apartments, townhouses and properties close to rather than directly on a course can provide more accessible options. Your budget will go further in some locations than others.
Can I live on a Costa Blanca golf resort all year?
Yes, many people do. If permanent living is your aim, focus on resorts and surrounding areas with year-round restaurants, supermarkets, healthcare and other everyday services. Being close to an established town can be just as important as the facilities within the golf resort itself.
Can I rent out my golf property?
Potentially, but don’t assume every property can be used for short-term holiday rentals. Rules can depend on the property, community and applicable regional or local regulations. If rental income is important, establish what is permitted and obtain appropriate professional advice before committing to the purchase.
How much are the costs of buying property on the Costa Blanca?
There isn’t one percentage that accurately covers every purchase. Taxes and associated costs differ depending on factors such as whether you buy a new-build or resale property and your individual transaction. Ask an independent lawyer to provide a purchase-cost breakdown for the property you are considering.
Which airport is best for Costa Blanca golf property?
Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport is the principal airport for much of the Costa Blanca and is particularly convenient for many southern and central golf locations. Journey times vary considerably across the region, however, so frequent travellers should compare actual driving times before choosing an area.
Should I view several golf resorts before buying?
We strongly recommend it. Even resorts that look similar online can feel completely different when you visit. Comparing several locations helps you understand whether you prefer a lively community, peaceful countryside, coastal access, contemporary resort or established residential area before you choose the individual property.
Final Thoughts
Buying golf property on the Costa Blanca can give you much more than a home beside a golf course.
The region works so well because golf sits within a much broader Mediterranean lifestyle: beaches, towns, restaurants, outdoor living and straightforward access from elsewhere in Europe.
The important part is finding the version of that lifestyle that suits you.
For some buyers, that means a contemporary villa at Las Colinas. For others, it could be an apartment at La Finca, an established community around Villamartin or a home near La Sella with Dénia and the northern coastline on the doorstep.
Start with the lifestyle. Compare the locations. Then find the property.
Camerons Golf can help you do exactly that.
