According to new research compiled by the European Environment Agency (EEA), using data from more than 22,000 sites, Spain has been placed in the top 10 EU locations for bathing water quality with an excellent score of 82.8%.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

3 coastal areas on the popular holiday island of Mallorca <\/a>were noted in particular by the EEA for their ‘excellent’ bathing qualities which when combined with the 63 Blue Flag rated beaches makes it no surprise that leading house builder Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a has experienced a year-on-year sales increase of 30% on the Balearic isle (April 2013).<\/p>\n

Marc Pritchard<\/strong>, Sales and Marketing Manager for Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a<\/a> comments,<\/p>\n

“Mallorca remains a very popular choice for holiday makers from all over Europe, with families in particular drawn to the award-winning beaches and clean Mediterranean waters. Not content with simply visiting for a couple of weeks each year however, we are seeing more and more people looking to buy a holiday home on the island with 1 in 6 sales now for Mallorcan property.<\/p>\n

“Demand for second homes with direct beach access remains especially high which is why we are very excited to be launching our new frontline development, Costa Beach<\/a>. Adhering to the belief that location is key, this superb site on the north east coast of Mallorca is being redeveloped to offer a range of high quality beach homes on one of the most spectacular shorelines on the island.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Superbly situated in Port Vell, near Costa de los Pinos, just 15 minutes from Manacor and 5 km from world class golf courses such as Golf de Son Servera , the new 2 or 3 bedroom apartments and penthouses of Costa Beach<\/a> also benefit from direct beach access and extraordinary sea views.<\/p>\n

Designed to reflect the natural beauty of the surrounding area and built to the highest specification with designer fixtures and fittings, air conditioning, double glazing, security doors and private underground parking, Costa Beach<\/a> presents a rare opportunity to own a frontline property in Spain from as little as \u20ac220,000.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With spacious terraces surrounding sumptuous landscaped gardens as well as a large communal swimming pool and wonderful sunbathing area for all owners to enjoy, Costa Beach<\/a> is one development not to be missed so for more information please contact Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a today on 08000 121 020 or visit www.taylorwimpeyspain.com<\/a> for more information.
