The Costa Blanca North Boom: Dutch Buyers Lead the Way

JAVEA, Spain - EntSun -- Costa Blanca North, Spain – The charming coastal enclaves of Moraira, Benissa and Jávea are witnessing a remarkable rise in interest from Dutch home-buyers, marking 2025 as a standout year for Northern European investment on the Costa Blanca.

According to the latest market data for Q2 2025, the province of Alicante (which includes Costa Blanca North) recorded 13.216 home sales, with 43.3 % of those purchases made by non-Spanish buyers — the highest provincial share in Spain.

Within this foreign-buyer segment, Dutch purchasers emerged as one of the fastest growing groups: Dutch acquisitions rose by approximately 40 % year-on-year nationally in Spain during Q2, accounting for roughly 6.5 % of foreign purchases in that period.

At national level Spain's property market saw 4978 properties purchased by Dutch buyers in 2024 (≈5.91 % of foreign purchases) — a clear indication of the long-term upward trend.

Why the surge in Moraira, Benissa & Jávea?

• Lifestyle proximity: The towns offer spectacular sea views, year-round sunshine, and high quality of life, which strongly appeal to Dutch buyers seeking second homes or relocation options.
• Accessibility & community: Easy flights from the Netherlands, well-established expat infrastructure, and towns with a balanced mix of local Spanish charm and international amenities.
• Investment dynamics: In Costa Blanca North, luxury villas in Moraira, Jávea and Benissa have seen value increases of +65% up to +88% since 2017.
• Scarcity of supply: Stricter building regulations and limited available plots mean that properties in these towns are not only desirable but increasingly rare.
