About Mijas

Mijas Costa runs along the coast between Fuengirola and Marbella. Calahonda, La Cala de Mijas and Riviera del Sol are the three best-known sub-zones — each with its own character. The April 2025 amendment to the Ley de Propiedad Horizontal — the 3/5 community-of-owners rule for new short-term rental licences — applies here as it does across Andalucía. Property stock includes everything from front-line beachfront apartments to inland golf-belt developments. Mijas Pueblo, the historic white village in the mountains, is administratively part of the same municipality but a different lifestyle entirely.

Mijas, sub-zone by sub-zone

Mijas is not one place.

4 distinct sub-markets within Mijas — each with its own character, price band, and rental rhythm. Pick the one that fits.

La Cala de Mijas

The coastal town centre on the Mijas costa — bypass-improved, mid-band Costa del Sol, year-round liveable.

Mijas Pueblo

The white village in the hills — 430 metres above the coast, character properties, slower-paced, limited stock.

El Faro & Mijas Costa

The coastal stretch between Fuengirola and La Cala — newer urbanisations, beach access, mid-market.

Calahonda & Riviera del Sol

Who tends to buy here

Strong British and Northern European presence on the coast. Spanish second-home buyers in the pueblo. Yield investors mostly target La Cala and Calahonda.

What to know before you offer

A meaningful share of buildings have voted to prohibit new VUT licences under the 3/5 community-of-owners rule. Read the building before any viewing — we check vote history at the comunidad meeting minutes.

Nearby

Other places to look at.

Coastal city

Fuengirola

The Costa del Sol's most year-round town. Empty-pavements is rare here — even January has weight.

Coastal city

Marbella

The Costa del Sol's premium market. New-build delivery is the active cycle; secondary turns slower.

Sierra de las Nieves

Monda

The Sierra de las Nieves village closest to the coast. Twenty minutes over the mountain road from Marbella.
