Manilva, Sabinillas, La Duquesa, Casares, Sotogrande, La Alcaidesa and San Roque — marinas, golf and the best value per square metre on the coast.
Estepona, Benahavís, the New Golden Mile and Marbella — old town charm, luxury resale, international schools and the strongest rental demand.
Mijas, Fuengirola, Benalmádena, Torremolinos and Málaga city — walkable towns, year-round life and quick access to the airport.

Geoff lives and works on the Costa del Sol and has guided buyers along the whole coast — Manilva and Duquesa through Estepona and Marbella to Mijas and Málaga. He's happy to talk at any stage, whether you're just starting to look or ready to view: viewings, lawyers, mortgages and everything in between.
