Existing and potential property owners in Spain are sure to be encouraged by news that holidaymakers are continuing to enjoy trips to traditional destinations.

A survey conducted by Eurobarometer has highlighted the continued popularity of European countries, with 58 per cent of those questioned sticking with familiar locations.

The main reasons for not travelling further afield are believed to be a result of cost and convenience, with travellers choosing to purchase cheaper accommodation and low cost flights in easy to reach countries.

Spain remains the most popular holiday destination with 29.05 per cent of bookings, according to the survey. Greece is in second place at 9.94 per cent, Turkey at eight per cent and the US at 5.99 per cent.

Ignacio Osle, sales and marketing director of Taylor Wimpey de Espana, said: “Since reducing prices in a bid to win back holidaymakers and property investors, Spain is now seen as not only an easily accessible sunshine destination but as a place that offers excellent value for money.”

Recent figures released by the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade reveal that nine million international tourists visited Spain between January and March this year.
