White washed towns near Estepona

Hi there,

Do you live in Spain already?

No I am trying to find the best place for me to relocate. I can only rent for max of 450 euro

It's impossible to suggest a place, it's such a personal decision. The best thing is to come here and look around. If you don't already know the region you may not like it - living here is very different from being here on holiday. There's always cheap rooms, public transport is generally good so you don't need a car, and eating out is cheap so, spending a month is entirely possible and probably enough time to give you enough information to go on.

Thank you. I am not looking for a touristy ex-pat place. I'd like a mix of cultures. I will be spending a week. Can you suggest a hotel or a B & B please

Well, the Old Town of Estepona is not high rise.

But you will most certainly not get anything for €450!  I am falling off my chair laughing, I´m afraid. Estepona is up-market and more expensive than that.

Whaitewashed and cheaper, you need to look at Nerja, for example.

Best wishes

Glad you found my financial situation funny!

No, the funny thing was thinking Estepona was a reasonably priced place to live. 

It isn't , I'm afraid.

You could have been a little more tactful however. I was aware that I would have to look outside of Estepona

To be honest I don't find Nerja particularly reasonable either. I do understand what it's like when you have a limited budget. And I do think you may be able to find something within your budget if you search. A lot depends on the time of year.  I'd look on airbnb at the cheapest and then send them private messages asking what their lowest was for a month. If they have no bookings they may offer you a bargain. Good luck.
