Ibiza
Invest and live in style
Bonte Filipidis™ was created in 2014 in Portugal, and we are thrilled to expand our coverage to Ibiza. As a residential real estate boutique, Bonte Filipidis™ caters to clients who want to invest in or relocate to Europe’s most attractive locations while keeping the process stress-free. Ibiza is a sought-after location with desirable real estate for both living and investing. As one of the Balearic Islands, Ibiza is a small yet highly in-demand location with a market that is expanding each month. Beat the trends and rush of buyers by investing in real estate in the area today.
A cosmopolitan island in the sun
Ibiza continues to be a cosmopolitan island bathed in sunshine. With its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, vibrant nightlife, favorable climate, and exquisite cuisine, it remains a dream destination.
This popularity is reflected in the real estate market, where the average price per square meter has risen by 16.8% between April 2024 and April 2025, reaching €7,465.
The reasons for this growth are evident. Ibiza boasts some of Europe's most stunning beaches, covers numerous opportunities for rejuvenating outdoor activities, and has an unparalleled nightlife and celebrity scene. The island provides a rich cultural experience across the spectrum. Additionally, with a safety index of 54.88, it is considered a relatively safe area year-round.
Long-term growth potential
in the height of luxury
Ibiza remains more expensive than the other Balearic Islands, with sustained high demand and limited inventory. However, this is matched by exceptional property quality and investment resilience. Buyers are drawn to Ibiza not only for its long-term appreciation potential but also for its immediate lifestyle benefits, rooted in a unique culture of wellness, creativity, and enjoyment.
Our clients choose Spain for many reasons, including the country's dynamic real estate market, premium residential offerings, hospitality excellence, and diverse business opportunities. As of 2025, Spain ranks #32 among 190 economies in the World Bank’s Doing Business Index (the final edition before its discontinuation) and continues to offer strategic advantages such as:
- A highly developed and service-oriented economy
- Robust investment potential in sectors like biotechnology, renewable energy, tourism, agriculture, and food production
- A growing reputation as an international hub for startups and innovation
- Regional and national tax incentives for companies and foreign investors
- Full access to the European Union market
- Infrastructure and lifestyle quality in tune with international expectations
- Timeless landscapes and a strong architectural identity
- A high quality of life, emphasizing well-being, outdoor living, and cultural richness
Taxation benefits
Spain is ranked 53rd among the 184 countries that comprise the 2025 Index of Economic Freedom, and stands at 41st out of 67 economies in the 2024 IMD World Competitiveness Ranking. This makes it an advantageous location to make long-term investments, where your money can go further than in other locations with tighter fiscal and regulatory environments.
High Quality Lifestyle
- Gorgeous seaside vistas
- Distinct neighborhoods with unique attractions and individualized interests
- Progressive international schools
- 7th best healthcare system in the world
- One of the lowest crime areas in Spain
- Expat hub with opportunities for foreigners and locals to intermingle

The Beckham law
Ibiza offers benefits under the Beckham Law, which is a tax regime for foreigners who begin living in Spain following a job offer. This policy allows foreigners to pay fewer taxes on their salary in the country and even allows individuals to be classified as non-residents. Ultimately, if you meet all conditions required, you will be taxed through income tax as a non-resident of Spain with a flat rate of 24% for up to 600K Euros, regardless of income, as opposed to the standard progressive rate of 48%.
Spain’s Golden Visa program
The Spanish Golden Visa program, originally created in 2013, allowed non-EU investors to obtain a valid residency permit in Spain by making a qualifying investment, most commonly through the purchase of real estate worth at least €500,000.
However, as of April 2025, the Spanish government has officially ended the Golden Visa program, particularly the real estate route, due to concerns about housing affordability and speculative foreign investment.
What has changed?
- The real estate investment option is no longer available.
- The government has discontinued the issuance of new Golden Visas linked to property purchases.
- Existing Golden Visa holders may still renew under prior rules, but no new applications are accepted under the former framework.
Alternatives (2025)?
While the traditional Golden Visa route has been closed, Spain still offers other immigration pathways for foreign nationals:
For remote workers employed by foreign companies who wish to live in Spain while working remotely.
For individuals launching innovative businesses with economic interest to Spain.
For retirees or individuals with sufficient passive income who do not intend to work in Spain.
For skilled professionals recruited by Spanish companies.
Provides incentives and streamlined residency processes for tech entrepreneurs and investors.
