Francis Payne of Tailor Made in Spain often describes Sotogrande as the Sandbanks & Canford Cliffs of Spain. Many wealthy people from London love a holiday home in Sandbanks and the same relationship exists between Madrid and Sotogrande.

Clients who buy in Sandbanks and Canford Cliffs for holiday homes love it so much that they often end up living there full time. Once they have made the move to Poole Dorset the same clients look for 2nd homes abroad. Sotogrande is ideal after all its one of Europes largest upmarket private residential estates a playground for the rich and famous. Unlike Marbella Sotogrande is not congested and is not over developed. Those living within the gated estate are surrounded by every activity that can be enjoyed under the sun.

a GREAT holiday Idea for Spain. What do you think about this great suggestion ?

The two most recent rentals to northern Europeans looking for holiday homes in the sun

My first couple are from Scotland Jim and Karen retired and spent many years traveling and seeing the world. The big attraction for Jim in Sotogrande was golf. He is a golf fanatic and loves playing the best courses all over the world. His favorites here are San Roque new, La Reserva and Sotogrande Real. Karen loves great scenery and peace and quiet and she also doesn't like driving in Spain so finding Sotogrande she found a location with wide Avenidas no congestion and a place where driving was easy within the estate.

Tailor Made rented them a 3 bedroom penthouse apartment on the marina very close to beach and the Old Port for 900 euros per month on a 9 month renewable contract. Their intention is to regularly visit and bring family and close friends with them, although I know Jim sees it as great opportunity to sneak out a few long weekends with his golf buddies.

Danish couple Aleksander & Agnete arrived two years ago looking to Ride Horses Agnete loves dressage and Aleksander loves tennis.Over the last 12 months they have spent a lot on regular hotel stays. Both decided that they could not indulge their passions enough in Denmark and they wanted a more permanant base in Spain so have rented a 2 bed port apartment 850,00 euros per month for 6 months the owner will take the apartment back in July August and they will return in November. Aleksander is in iT so can work from any location and has made his decision now because the marina in Sotogrande has the blue fibre optic fast internet which he needs for video conferencing and meetings online.They anticipate being here at least 5 months of the year

Long term holiday renting is on the up with rising costs of hotels at peak season people are finding by renting an apartment between two families or with other family members they can really get to know the area they enjoy and get more involved with local people with similar interests.

Here is a current rental property available in the marina within 100 meters of the beach. Waterside Apartment Sotogrande Spain

Any Bargain property in Sotogrande spain´s luxury estate & sporting playground

Sotogrande property Tailor Made estate agents are finding the market very slow in Sotogrande. People coming to Spain with unrealistic expectations of what their money will buy. Yes there are a lot of bargains to be had but often the bargains are for property no one would want in the boom times never mind the crisis we face now.

Truth is that Sotogrande like many millionaire play grounds has been affected, but the average owner is not feeling the pressure to drop. Wealthy people even if feeling the pinch can juggle their finances and set bottom lines which are not consistant with say property prices drops in maybe a 3rd rate area. Sotogrande has seen price drops of around 25% to 35% not enough really for the cautious buyer. So people wait hoping that in another 6 to 12 months they will feel the pinch enough to drop further. Maybe some will drop a bit more but it will never be on mass. So the chances of those coming here for a week hoping to get a bargain of a life time are diminished. The real bargains drops of 45% & 50% of prices 2 years ago are few and far between and go quickly to people on the ground with a reservation fee in their hand.

This week I had a vendor call me saying he was happy to drop 100,000 off his 400,000 price tag. The fact is that in this particular development 99% of the buyers were British. Three years ago they would have sent 300,000 to spain to pay 400,000. Now they will still have to send a little over 300,000 to buy. So where is the bargain to the British buyer. It simply is not there and here lies the difficulty in selling to the British.
