Known as the sunniest corner of Europe, the province of Almería offers a unique landscape where desert warmth meets the cooling Mediterranean breeze. For property buyers, this climate means one thing is non-negotiable: outdoor space. If you are looking to fully embrace the Spanish lifestyle, an apartment for sale in Almería with a terrace or balcony is the key to unlocking year-round alfresco living without the high maintenance of a villa.

Why buy a property with a terrace in Almería?

In Almería, a terrace or a balcony is not just an architectural feature; it is an extension of your living room. With over 3,000 hours of sunshine a year and very little rainfall, you will likely spend more time on your balcony than on your sofa. Whether you are looking for a compact lock-up-and-leave holiday home or a permanent residence, the market here is diverse.

You can find a modern penthouse or flat in Almería city, where you can enjoy the urban buzz and views of the Alcazaba, or beachside apartments in resort towns where the terrace overlooks the Mediterranean.

Because property prices in Almería generally remain lower than in neighbouring Murcia or Málaga, your budget often stretches further here, allowing you to secure a larger outdoor space or a better view for your money.

Prime spots for apartments with terraces on the Costa de Almería

The Costa de Almería is less developed than other Spanish coasts, offering a more relaxed vibe, but there are key hotspots where apartments with terraces are plentiful:

  • Roquetas de Mar & Aguadulce: These bustling coastal towns offer excellent amenities and a wide selection of modern apartment complexes. Here, you can easily find high-rise apartments with generous balconies offering sweeping sea views at very competitive prices.
  • Mojácar & Vera Playa: If you prefer a mix of traditional charm and resort convenience, look north to Mojácar or Vera. Mojácar offers beautiful whitewashed properties often built into the hillside with stepped terraces, while Vera Playa is famous for its gated communities with pools and extensive rental potential.
  • Almerimar: A haven for golf and water sports enthusiasts, this marina town is ideal for finding spacious apartments with terraces overlooking the yachts or the golf course.
