According to the latest annual report from the Bank of Spain, this type of housing accounts for 5% of the total provincial stock, a figure that exceeds the national average of 3.3%. With these data, Almeria ranks above other regions such as Cadiz, Castellon, Tarragona, or Murcia.
In parallel, the National Statistics Institute has recorded a significant increase in the number of tourist apartments in the province. Over the last six years, this type of accommodation has grown by 47%, mainly concentrated in coastal enclaves such as Vera, Nijar, Roquetas de Mar, Mojacar, and the provincial capital.
The provincial real estate market shows a notable fragmentation regarding international demand. While areas like San Juan de los Terreros show a high rate of purchases by non-residents, other locations such as Aguadulce or Almerimar maintain a profile where domestic buyers remain the primary drivers of transactions.
