According to the latest data from the Frontier Tourist Movement Survey released by the Spanish Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism (FRONTUR), more than 2 million foreign tourists have already visited the Costa Blanca<\/a> from January to May this year.<\/p>\n

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

Nationally, Spain received 21.4 million foreign tourists until May, representing an increase of 8.2 per cent over the same period in 2012. In the first five months of the year almost all major emitting countries contributed to this growth, particularly Britain and France with increases of 6.9 per cent and 11.1 per cent respectively.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, supporting news of a tourist surge to Spain, independent travel agency A1 Travel has reported a year on year increase of over 40% for bookings to Spain. The last three months in particular have seen a real boost in bookings to Spanish resorts, as families, couples and young groups look to finalise their holiday plans for this summer.<\/p>\n

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

\u201cIt comes as no surprise that the Costa Blanca<\/a> is once again a favourite summer holiday destination. Here we have seen an abundance of holidaymakers and foreign property buyers drawn to the clear blue waters, miles of golden sandy beaches, quaint villages, sophisticated cafes and restaurants and an abundance of historical, cultural and leisure activities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the continued frequency and ease of flights to Spain, this boost in tourism will undoubtedly spell good news for property owners, boosting rental occupancy levels. As a property developer operating across Spain we are naturally thrilled that tourist numbers continue to soar into the summer months and we are very confident that this will bring a further boost to the Costa Blanca second homes market in particular.\u201d<\/p>\n

So for those looking to swap Cornwall for the scorching Spanish Costas this summer, look no further than Taylor Wimpey Espa\u00f1a<\/a>\u2019s latest offering!<\/p>\n
