Summary

  • Operational hostel with 16 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, ready for immediate operation.
  • Fully renovated and furnished 570 m² property with a tourist license.

Regional Comparison

Compared to projects like Pine Valley (from €1,324,000), Horizon La Cala De Mijas (from €1,284,000), and Cerrado Heights (from €1,300,000), this hostel is positioned at a higher price point (€1,800,000). This higher price is justifiable due to the property's size (570 m² with 16 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms), its status as an operational hostel with a tourist license, and its recent, comprehensive renovation. The competition in Mijas primarily consists of villas and apartments aimed at residential use or rental. A fully operational hostel with this capacity and license is a more specialized investment. The proximity to the coast and urban amenities in Las Lagunas is comparable to the appeal of other areas in Mijas, but the direct focus on commercial accommodation operations distinguishes this offering from most residential projects in the region. The price presented should be considered in the context of the revenue the property can generate, which is a key differentiator from purely residential investments.
