Jasmine Harman is coming to the help of married couple Samar and Pap. It’s their dream to find a holiday home in and around the town of Benalmadena on Spain’s Costa del Sol that will work for them, their children and their large extended family when they come to stay. With a budget of £220,000 Jasmine shows them five stunning properties but will any of them be perfect?
About the area
Benalmadena lies on the Costa Del Sol in Southern Spain and is just 20 minutes drive from Malaga airport – which you can fly into from loads of different parts of the UK – the flight time is around 3 hours. Benalmadena, which first became popular with tourists in the 1950s, is a busy and bustling beach resort – its 80,000 year round population more than triples in peak season – and while lovers of sun sea and sand will never find themselves twiddling their thumbs, there’s lots of other things to do here as well – whether it’s shopping and socialising in the lively Arroyo De La Miel district or relaxing and enjoying the architecture of the old town
