| Leading Spanish home builder Taylor Wimpey España has announced the launch of two brand new developments, in the latest sign that Spain is returning to some kind of normal. Kiruna Hills, at Alenda Golf, Alicante, and Pier 1, at the prestigious Marina de Sotogrande on the Costa del Sol will provide second home buyers with plenty of choice as the Spanish property market gets back into the swing of things once more. Summer holidays in Spain aren’t quite business as usual just yet, but they’re certainly looking a lot closer to it than many would have imagined a couple of months ago. With travel restrictions lifted by Spain and the UK exempting those flying in from there from having to enter quarantine for 14 days, the scene has been set for Britons to enjoy sun-kissed summer holidays once more. Even before the Spanish air bridge was announced, Ryanair’s first wave of flights to numerous international destinations on 1 July were running two-thirds full, with 105,000 passengers jetting off for some much-needed rest and relaxation after months of being stuck in the UK. |
| Many airlines are ramping up their flights to Spain for the summer season in response to customer demand. Mallorca has proven to be of particular interest, according to Travelsupermarket, after the island acted as a testbed for safe travel prior to the rest of Spain opening up. The price comparison site reported a 96% increase in online searches for trips to Mallorca following the government in Spain bringing forward the date that it would reopen to international visitors. “It’s certainly going to be an unusual summer in Spain in many ways, but the sunshine, stunning beaches and superb gastronomy are still here, meaning that those who do come to Spain for their holidays this year have plenty to look forward to. For second home owners, Spain offers a welcome relief from the stresses of daily life – as it has always done – with the outdoor lifestyle holding huge appeal. All of this contributed to our decision to launch two new developments this month, providing plenty of choice for those looking to buy a bolthole in Spain.” Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Director of Taylor Wimpey España |
| The two developments are substantially different, though both will encompass Taylor Wimpey España’s signature blend of stylish indoor/outdoor living, with communal pools and gardens and outstanding locations. On the Costa Blanca, Kiruna Hills will be ideal for keen golfers, thanks to its prime position at the popular Alenda Golf Club. The 36 contemporary townhouses will feature landscaped gardens and spacious solariums with stunning views over the Sierra de las Aguilas. Prices start from €193,800 plus VAT. Over on the Costa del Sol, meanwhile, Pier 1 will provide three premium apartments and one penthouse in a private gated community next door to Sotogrande’s yacht club. The frontline marina homes are ideal for buyers who are serious about luxury. The four bedroom/five bathroom layout is complemented by large terraces, with the ground floor and penthouse apartments each having private pools. Prices start from €1,365,000 plus VAT. |
| “We feel that it will be important to offer buyers a particularly wide range of choice when it comes to property size, type, facilities and location over the coming years. Many buyers are now looking at second homes from a different perspective. They still want a home that’s ideal for creating cherished family memories, but elements such as private outdoor space and nearby open-air sports and leisure facilities have taken on a particular importance.” Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Director of Taylor Wimpey España For buyers looking for key-ready homes where they could potentially see out a second wave lockdown, Kiruna Hills’ neighbouring site, Kiruna Residencial, is ideal. Not only do residents have Alenda Golf on site, but a selection of stunning beaches are just 15 minutes away, as is Alicante Airport. The homes offer spacious living with access to a small supermarket, restaurant and bar, clubhouse, fitness centre and paddle tennis courts, as well as the outstanding golfing facilities. The final two three-bedroom townhouses are available from €189,000 plus VAT.
