<< Back to the Costa del Sol Guide

We recommend that you insure your property on the Costa del Sol against any possible damage and/or theft. Numerous policies are available in Spain. Please take into account that procedures vary from country to country so it is recommenced that you use a reputable insurer and ensure that your policy covers everything you require. You may need to claim within 24 hours of an incident occurring. This should be known in advance, so when searching for the right policy, make sure all points are covered.

Health insurance is widely available whether you are visiting or living in Spain. If you do not qualify for social security medical care you must insure yourself and your family in case of emergency or illness. Failure to do so can result in large bills.

It is up to you to ensure that you are insured to cover every eventuality. Make sure there are no gaps in your insurance due to differences in policies from different countries, for example, Spanish health insurance doesn’t cover car accidents, which are automatically covered by Spanish car insurance. So if your car is insured abroad and you have Spanish health insurance you will not therefore, be covered in the case of a car accident should you need medical treatment.
