Landscaping & Garden Design in Benidorm

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. I have spent years transforming outdoor spaces across the Marina Baixa, and I know that designing a garden or terrace in a city as unique as Benidorm requires more than just an eye for aesthetics. Whether you are living in a high-rise apartment near Playa de Levante or own a villa in the quiet residential pockets of Rincón de Loix or the shadows of Sierra Helada, the environment dictates the design. With a population of approximately 72,342 residents, Benidorm is a dense, vibrant hub where outdoor living is essential year-round. However, being a prominent coastal area with high salt exposure and intense Mediterranean sun, your materials must be resilient. Our professional landscaping in Benidorm focuses on durability and smart water usage to ensure your investment thrives despite the saline breeze from Playa de Poniente or La Cala. To give you a baseline, in Benidorm a landscaping typically runs 30-120 €/m² including local labour, depending on the complexity of the hardscaping and the botanical selection required for our specific microclimate.

Regulations and Local Permits in Benidorm

Navigating the legal landscape is a crucial part of any outdoor project in the Marina Baixa. All installations involving sun protection, such as awnings or pergolas, must strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which dictates wind resistance and safety requirements for external blinds and shutters. This is particularly important in Benidorm’s high-rise environment where wind loads can be significant.

Furthermore, any structural modification to your exterior must comply with the local municipal ordinances and the PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana). Specifically, we work under the framework of the PGOU 1990, including its most recent updates in the Texto Refundido 2022. For most landscaping projects, such as installing new paving, irrigation systems, or non-structural garden walls, a "Comunicación Previa" or "Obra Menor" permit is required from the Benidorm Town Hall. This is a relatively straightforward process that we can help guide you through.

It is also vital for property owners who use their homes for holiday rentals to stay informed about the latest regional changes. Under the Decree Law 9/2024 of the Generalitat Valenciana, tourist licenses now require a certificate of residential compatibility. If your landscaping project involves changing the use or layout of a terrace for commercial tourist purposes, we must ensure the design respects these updated legal boundaries to protect your license and avoid municipal sanctions.
