La Alcaidesa townhouses sit at the quieter western edge of the Sotogrande area, where the Costa del Sol meets the Straits of Gibraltar. These properties appeal to buyers looking for low-density living, golf access, and an international feel without the formality or density of central Sotogrande.
La Alcaidesa townhouses are built across residential communities on gently sloping terrain between the beachfront and the hillside. Most are modern constructions from the past two decades, designed in a Mediterranean or contemporary Andalucian style with white or ochre facades. They range from compact two-bedroom units to four-bedroom family homes, usually configured over two or three floors. The majority include a small private garden or terrace on the ground floor and a solarium or upper terrace with views toward the sea, Gibraltar, or the fairways. The neighbourhood spreads across a large footprint with distinct pockets. Communities closer to the beach and the LinksTorres hotel tend to be more compact and attract buyers who want easy access to the sand and the marina. Developments further inland, near the golf courses or toward the hills, are quieter, greener, and feel more suburban. Street parking is limited in some areas, so most townhouse communities include dedicated parking bays or small garages within the plot. Community fees vary depending on the age of the development and the level of shared facilities. Older complexes may offer only basic perimeter maintenance, while newer gated schemes often include communal pools, landscaping, and security. Some townhouses share a wall with neighbours on one or both sides, and soundproofing quality can differ between older and newer builds. Corner units tend to offer more light and a bit more garden space. Because La Alcaidesa sits just outside the main Sotogrande estate, the tone is more relaxed and less exclusive, and you are more likely to encounter a mix of permanent residents, retirees, and families from Spain and northern Europe. Choosing a townhouse here makes sense if you want more space and privacy than an apartment offers but prefer not to manage the upkeep of a standalone villa. The area is well suited to golfers, with La Alcaidesa Links and Heathland courses on the doorstep, and to buyers who value proximity to Gibraltar for schooling, work, or travel. Daily amenities are modest within La Alcaidesa itself, so most residents drive to San Roque, Sotogrande, or across the border for shopping and services.
