In 2026, Spain is home to approximately 9.5 million foreign residents, and M\u00e1laga province consistently ranks among the top three destinations for international buyers and settlers.

More than 300 days of sunshine per year. A reformed city centre with world-class museums (the Pompidou, the Russian Museum and the Carmen Thyssen all have outposts here). A fast-growing tech and creative sector. Some of the best-value coastal property in southern Europe. Direct flights to London, Dublin, Amsterdam, Frankfurt and a dozen other European cities. And a legal and administrative infrastructure that has become increasingly accustomed to handling the needs of non-Spanish residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Spain&#8217;s National Statistics Institute (INE), the number of foreign-born residents in Spain grew by more than 4% between 2023 and 2025. British nationals remain among the largest groups, with around 300,000 registered across the country, many of them in Andaluc\u00eda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_10_Castles_of_Malaga_Province\"><\/span><strong>The 10 Castles of M\u00e1laga Province<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Alcazaba_de_Malaga\"><\/span><strong>1.

It offers panoramic views over the entire city and the bay.

The ruins date from the Moorish period and offer views over the Guadalhorce valley. C\u00e1rtama itself is one of the more affordable towns for property buyers looking for easy access to M\u00e1laga city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Castillo_de_Fuengirola_Sohail\"><\/span><strong>4.

Originally a Phoenician watchtower, it was rebuilt by the Moors and later modified by the Christians. Today it hosts an annual summer music festival and offers good views of the coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Castillo_de_Monda\"><\/span><strong>5. Castillo de Monda<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The white village of Monda, in the hills behind Marbella, is dominated by its castle, which <a href=\"https:\/\/castillodemonda.com\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">has been converted into a hotel<\/a>. The original fortress dates from the Moorish period and was later occupied by the Nasrid kings. The views over the surrounding countryside are spectacular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Castillo_de_Casares\"><\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casares.es\/turismo\/que-ver-en-casares\/el-castillo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">6.

Its castle sits at the very top of the village, with the houses of the town clinging to the hillside below it. The surrounding countryside takes in the Genal Valley and, on a clear day, the Rock of Gibraltar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Torre_del_Mar_and_the_Watchtowers_of_Axarquia\"><\/span><strong>7.

Many are now in ruin, but several have been restored and can be visited on the coastal footpath between Torre del Mar and Nerja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Castillo_de_Velez-Malaga\"><\/span><strong>8.

The ruins have been partly restored and the site hosts cultural events during the summer months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Castillo_de_Manilva\"><\/span><strong>9. Castillo de Manilva<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The small coastal town of Manilva, at the western tip of the Costa del Sol, has a ruined tower that formed part of the town&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Castillo_de_la_Duquesa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">medieval defences<\/a>. It is modest compared to the larger castles further inland, but it sits in a wine-producing area and the surrounding countryside, with its vineyards and clifftop coastal views, is worth a long afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Living_in_Malaga_as_a_Foreigner_What_You_Need_to_Know\"><\/span><strong>Living in M\u00e1laga as a Foreigner: What You Need to Know<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you are buying a holiday home, retiring permanently or relocating with your family, the practical and legal landscape for foreigners in Spain has changed considerably since Brexit. EU citizens retain freedom of movement but still need to register and obtain residency documentation after three months. British and other non-EU nationals need to apply for a visa before arriving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most common issues that international residents encounter include: obtaining the NIE number (required for almost every official transaction), understanding non-resident property tax obligations, navigating the Spanish inheritance and succession rules, and making sure their wills are valid under both Spanish and home-country law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span><strong>Veelgestelde vragen<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_I_need_a_visa_to_buy_property_in_Malaga_as_a_British_national\"><\/span><strong>Do I need a visa to buy property in M\u00e1laga as a British national?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Buying property does not require a visa. However, if you plan to live in Spain for more than 90 days in any 180-day period, you will need a residency visa. The most common option for retirees is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.malagasolicitors.com\/nl\/non-lucrative-visa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Non-Lucrative Visa<\/a>, which requires proof of sufficient passive income or savings. Your lawyer can advise on which visa best fits your situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Malaga_a_good_place_to_retire\"><\/span><strong>Is M\u00e1laga a good place to retire?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consistently, yes. The combination of climate, healthcare quality (Spain has one of the best public healthcare systems in the EU), cost of living, cultural richness and accessibility from the UK and northern Europe makes M\u00e1laga one of the most popular retirement destinations in the world. The province has well-established expat communities in Marbella, Mijas, Nerja, Fuengirola and Manilva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_cost_of_living_in_Malaga_compared_to_the_UK\"><\/span><strong>What is the cost of living in M\u00e1laga compared to the UK?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Broadly speaking, day-to-day living costs (food, restaurants, transport, utilities) are 20 to 30% lower in M\u00e1laga than in comparable British towns and cities. Property prices vary enormously by location, but it is still possible to buy a well-located apartment on the Costa del Sol for under \u20ac200,000. Private healthcare in Spain is also significantly cheaper than equivalent private provision in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_bring_my_UK_pension_to_Spain\"><\/span><strong>Can I bring my UK pension to Spain?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. <strong>UK state pensions and most private pensions can be paid into a Spanish bank account<\/strong>. However, you will need to declare your pension income to the Agencia Tributaria as part of your annual Spanish tax return if you are a Spanish tax resident. The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sede.agenciatributaria.gob.es\/Sede\/en_gb\/ayuda\/manuales-videos-folletos\/folletos\/folletos-residentes-rentas-extranjeras\/reino-unido.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UK-Spain double taxation treaty<\/a><\/strong> prevents you from being taxed on the same income in both countries, but the interaction between the two systems requires careful management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Planning_to_Buy_or_Settle_in_Malaga_Province\"><\/span><strong>Planning to Buy or Settle in M\u00e1laga Province?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving to Spain is an exciting decision, but it also comes with important legal and administrative steps.
