Moraira, Calpe, Altea and Benitachell are the premium areas of Alicante preferred by foreign buyers to buy luxury homes, towns that we at Hispania Homes know perfectly and about which we want to tell you all the details.
Foreign home buyers have made 30.7% more real estate transactions during the first 9 months of 2024 compared to the same period in 2019 according to a study conducted by CaixaBank Research based on data from the Ministry of Housing and Urban Agenda. Thus, during the first 9 months of the year, foreigners bought 125,857 homes in our country.
Beyond the growing interest in buying property in Spain, foreigners feel a special preference for the purchase of luxury housing, a market in which the Costa Blanca has become one of the favourite areas for the most demanding buyers.

Below we show you the ranking of premium areas in Alicante preferred by foreign buyers according to data published by Idealista.
Calpe, excellent value for money
Calpe is famous for its golden sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and the emblematic Peñon de Ifach, a paradise for hikers and photographers. Also, compared to Moraira and Altea, Calpe offers slightly more affordable real estate options without sacrificing sea views or quality services.
In Calpe you can find from modern flats with sea views to exclusive villas in urbanisations such as Maryvilla or Oltamar.

Moraira, all luxury and privacy
Moraira is one of the most prestigious areas of the Costa Blanca. In Moraira we find high standing villas and private urbanisations. Unlike other coastal towns, Moraira has no large buildings or mass tourism, making it the perfect destination for those seeking privacy and quality of life.
Other attractions that make Moraira one of the best premium areas in Alicante are its nearby golf courses, international schools and private medical centres.

Altea and its bohemian charm
Its cobbled streets, whitewashed houses and iconic blue domed church make Altea not only one of the most popular areas for foreigners to buy property, but also a culturally attractive destination. Although Altea is a quiet town, it is close to Benidorm, which allows you to enjoy a wide range of leisure activities without losing your privacy.
Furthermore, areas such as Altea Hills are home to some of the most exclusive properties on the Costa Blanca.

Benitachell, tranquillity and nature
Benitachell is the preferred location for foreign buyers looking for a luxury home in a tranquil setting with spectacular views. Unlike Calpe or Altea, Benitachell is a small town with a low population density, making it ideal for those seeking peace and privacy.
In addition, many of the luxury villas in Benitachell are specially designed for foreign buyers, so they have high standards of quality and comfort.
