The reincarnation of Alcaidesa as a growing and popular resort.

Alcaidesa is a residential urbanization and golf resort located in the southern region of Spain, near Gibraltar. It is situated in the province of Cadiz very close to Sotogrande and to the San Roque Golf Club resort. Alcaidesa is renowned for its beautiful Mediterranean views and its proximity to Gibraltar, making it an attractive location for residents and tourists alike. Views towards Gibraltar to Morocco perfectly capture the Pillars of Hercules. On a good day you can see the small towns of the African coast perfectly.

Golf, golf and more Golf

One of the main highlights of Alcaidesa are its golf courses. La Hacienda Links Golf Resort features two 18-hole golf courses: La Hacienda Links and La Hacienda Heathland. These courses are designed to provide a challenging and enjoyable golfing experience while offering breath-taking views of the sea and the surrounding natural landscape.

Infrastructure Development

The resort development suffered badly principally due to the 2008 crash, but since we have seen over the past decade particularly some big developers investing considerably. The growth that Alcaidesa is experiencing lately is to be remarked, highlighted with the investment done by Millenium Hospitality Real Estate developing what will become the first Fairmont Hotel in Andalusia, aiming to become another exclusive luxury resort in the South of Spain, furthermore, the growth of restaurants and “Chiringuitos”, such as Sal Verde and new residential developments like One Eden showcases the growth the area is experiencing, making Alcaidesa a more luxurious destination for its residents and visitors.

After going through hard times in the past, Alcaidesa has risen and from the looks of it, it will keep growing and growing, the sense of being an unfinished development is disappearing and now it’s turning into one of the jewels of Andalucia.

The residential areas of Alcaidesa offers a variety of properties, including apartments, townhouses, and villas. Many of these properties enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, Gibraltar, and the African coast. The urbanization is known for its tranquil atmosphere, well-maintained green spaces, and access to various amenities like restaurants, bars, and shops.

The Appeal of sea Views

While city residents may have different reasons for seeking sea views compared to those living in rural areas, the desire for a coastal property with a sea view is a common preference among a wide range of potential buyers, regardless of their current location. It is a choice driven by the desire to enhance their living experience and enjoy the benefits of living close to the sea.

Sea views are highly sought after by potential buyers of property in coastal areas for several reasons:

Aesthetic appeal: A sea view provides a sense of natural beauty and tranquillity. The ever-changing seascape, the sound of waves, and the open horizon create a relaxing and picturesque atmosphere that many people find appealing.

Prestige and exclusivity: Properties with sea views often command higher prices due to their desirability. Having a home overlooking the sea is often associated with luxury and exclusivity, making it an attractive option for those seeking a premium living experience.

Emotional well-being: Many people find living by the sea to be emotionally uplifting. The sight of the ocean can have a calming effect, reducing stress and enhancing overall well-being.

Investment value: Properties with sea views tend to retain their value better over time, making them a potentially attractive investment opportunity for buyers.

People from various backgrounds, including urban dwellers and those from other regions, often seek properties with sea views as vacation homes or as a permanent residence. The appeal of a sea view transcends urban or rural preferences, as it is more about the lifestyle choice and connection to nature that such a view offers.
