A few kilometres east of the Portuguese border on the Costa de la Luz is the magnificent resort of Islantilla. Known for its exquisite 27-hole golf course, Islantilla is a relatively new addition to the Spanish coastline, being purposefully built in the early 1990s. It is a luxurious resort, full of charm and character - and is a much sought after location in which to own Spanish property.
Islantilla is designed to offer something for everyone. Aside for the wonderful golfing opportunities there is a grandiose shopping centre, quality bars and restaurants, and a good selection of tasteful entertainment. The resort is especially popular with Spanish tourists, and primarily caters for mature couples and families looking for a quiet and sophisticated holiday environment.
The beach at Islantilla is one of the resort's biggest attractions. There is 2kms of continuous golden sand running along the shoreline. The beach is shared with the towns of Lepe and Isla Cristina, and offers disabled access in several places. Many beach activities are available along the sand, including boat rides, yachting and water-skiing.
Islantilla property most in demand are the apartments and villas overlooking the resort's superb golf course. Some of this property is available to buy through resale, although the best choice of Spanish property is to be found on the new property developments going up around the golf course. Naturally, Islantilla property along the beachfront is in huge demand too.
Islantilla is a popular choice for investors who are looking for a villa in Spain. The golf/beach combination ensures that the resort is populated all year round, providing landlords with a steady influx of tourists.
