Building in Benidorm
Building in Benidorm is a very different proposition from elsewhere on the Costa Blanca. The town is fully built up along the coastal strip, which makes vacant plots in the centre and beachside districts extremely scarce. Available building land is therefore found mainly in the expanding neighbourhoods and on the hills behind the town, in areas such as Benidorm Hills, Finestrat and La Nucía, municipalities that border Benidorm and have grown functionally intertwined with it. From those higher positions you often have a spectacular view over Benidorm's skyline, its two bays and the Mediterranean Sea. Those who want to compare the broader range of building plots in the region will find a complete overview on our page about building plots on the Costa Blanca.
What to expect
Building plots in and around Benidorm vary considerably in designation and potential. Within the town itself, most remaining plots are designated for high-rise or multi-family projects, while the surrounding municipalities offer more scope for detached villas on private land. The proximity of every amenity, Alicante airport half an hour away and excellent road connections make this area attractive for those who want to build while keeping the convenience of a full-service coastal city nearby. Those who prefer to buy an existing property rather than build can also browse the villas in Benidorm or the apartments in Benidorm.

We handle your NIE application, explain the local taxes (IBI, IRNR) clearly and carry out legal and urban planning checks on every plot before you sign.

Frequently asked questions
Are there still vacant building plots in Benidorm itself?
Vacant plots in the core of Benidorm are extremely scarce and are generally designated for multi-family construction. Most opportunities for a detached home lie in the neighbouring municipalities of Finestrat and La Nucía. Palmhouses will help you map out the available options across the wider area.
Do I need a NIE number to buy a building plot?
Yes. The NIE is your Spanish tax identification number and is required for every property purchase, including land. Palmhouses takes care of the application on your behalf.
Can I build a villa with a view over the Benidorm skyline?
Yes, on the hills surrounding Benidorm there are plots available with panoramic views over the city and the sea. Buildability and permitted building height vary by zone. Palmhouses checks this for every plot you are considering and can put you in touch with local architects who know the area well.
