During the month of May, we asked ourselves an important question: Which area on the Costa del Sol currently offers the best value for money?

The conclusion is clear: second-hand townhouses and semi-detached homes in Mijas, particularly in the Mijas Golf area, continue to rank among the most attractive options for buyers seeking space, comfort, and quality of life without reaching the higher price levels found in other coastal locations.

At present, Mijas maintains a lower average price per square metre than Fuengirola, Benalmádena, and Torremolinos, allowing buyers to access larger and better-equipped properties with a more competitive budget. Furthermore, areas such as Mijas Golf stand out for offering a well-established residential environment surrounded by nature and golf courses, while remaining just a few minutes from the beach and all essential amenities.

Here are the exact figures: according to Idealista, Mijas recorded the lowest average property price among the four municipalities, at €3,691/m², compared to €3,984/m² in Torremolinos, €4,109/m² in Benalmádena, and €4,431/m² in Fuengirola (April 2026 data). In addition, Fotocasa reports an average price of €3,257/m² in Mijas Golf, significantly below areas such as La Cala, Calahonda, and Riviera del Sol.

In May, the market continued to show strong demand for homes offering outdoor spaces and features that support the Mediterranean lifestyle. For this reason, our analysis focused on properties that include the features most sought after by today’s buyers:

• 3 bedrooms
• Terrace
• Swimming pool
• Private parking
• Garden

While prices continue to rise in municipalities such as Fuengirola and in certain coastal areas of Benalmádena and Torremolinos, Mijas Golf still offers excellent opportunities in townhouses and semi-detached homes with an outstanding balance between price, location, and features.

For this reason, in our Top 5 Prime Homes Ranking – May 2026, we have selected a carefully curated collection of properties in Mijas Golf that stand out not only for their competitive pricing but also for their potential as a primary residence, holiday home, or investment opportunity in one of the Costa del Sol’s most promising residential areas.
