New luxury camping resort with pools, a spa and sports facilities planned for eastern Costa del Sol

OUTDOOR enthusiasts in Andalucia will soon have a new destination to escape to.

Pull out your tents and prepare for Spain’s newest ‘pitch’ for outdoorsy fun as the Costa del Sol is set to open a high-end camping resort.

The Alannia Costa del Sol project promises a mix of outdoor activities and modern comfort.

The site will span 77,000 square metres between Velez-Malaga town centre and Caleta de Velez.

It will feature 214 bungalows and 110 spacious camping pitches, along with swimming pools, a lagoon-style spa, sports facilities, a restaurant, supermarket, and dedicated areas for events.

The resort is designed for visitors seeking nature-based experiences, with themed zones and extensive green spaces blending into the landscape.

With room for up to 1,515 guests, the development is expected to create around 60 construction jobs and over 180 seasonal roles once the space is open to the public. 

Local businesses could also benefit from increased demand for services, with the overall economic impact expected to exceed €20 million annually.

The resort promises easy access to the nearby cities while offering a family-friendly retreat.
