Marbella: call me the Spanish Côte d’Azur
Marbella – and it’s region – continues to confirm it’s dominant position as it drives tourism in Spain and attracts an ever more wealthy population. The ministry of industry, energy and tourism has published a study revealing that Andalucía – Marbella in particular – has experienced an important increase in tourist expenditure ; 16.3% compared to June of last year. With this new increase the region attracts 15.5% of total spending by foreign tourists on the Spanish territory. The region is surfing this trend and is now to be marketed abroad as the Spanish Côte d’Azur. With all this, the interest can only be expected to grow for property in Marbella’s hilltops or apartments in Puerto Banus with frontline marina views.
