Ciboure is a collection of micro-markets

As the Basque Coast remains a diverse market, properties overlooking the bay, near the port, on the hillside, and adjacent to the golf course in Cibourne each offer different benefits. Property values, lifestyle appeal, and resale performance vary widely between neighbourhoods. Choosing the right micro-location is key to aligning both your way of living and long-term value.

Process of work

Ryan's insight

“Ciboure is often perceived as the quieter neighbour of Saint-Jean-de-Luz, but the reality is much more nuanced. Each area offers a different balance of views, accessibility, and seasonal activity – from lively coastal pockets in summer to residential zones that remain calm year-round. Buyers sometimes focus only on the setting, without considering how daily life, parking, walkability, or summer density will affect their experience. Our role is to anticipate these practical aspects early, ensuring the property fits not only the lifestyle they imagine, but how they will truly use it over time.”

CLIENT REVIEWS & CASE STUDIES

Our client purchases & case studies offer a detailed look into the transactions we supported and the outcomes we helped our clients achieve. Explore these real examples to understand how informed decisions lead to exceptional results.

Recently we acquired a charming village house for our family in the centre of Bidart, near Biarritz, on the Basque Coast. Such a decision is not only a matter of money and value but first and foremost a matter of trust - especially as the entire process had to be managed from abroad as we live in Vienna, Austria. Through facilitating an individual decision making process Ryan provided a tailor made solution in accordance with all our personal preferences! In addition to that we experienced his reliable and proactive support throughout the legal and financial procedures! We are still in good contact with Ryan and would always come back to him for any kind of real estate solutions!

From the moment we met Ryan at Buyer’s Agent France, he went out of his way to find out exactly what we were looking for. He was very patient with us despite all our silly questions and then spent a day viewing properties. His professional and personal approached filled us with great confidence. Despite not being the selling agent for our property, he acted on our behalf as an intermediary. We are now enjoying our first holiday in our Praz sur Arly apartment near Megeve and could not be happier. He also introduced us to a great notaire in Sallanches. We are so fortunate to have stepped into his office! To find our dream home in The French Alps!

Simply brilliant! - only showed me properties in The French Alps relevant to my criteria and made the whole purchasing process so easy. Highly recommended.

Having spent many years searching independently for a property in France we came across Ryan at Buyer's Agent France and never looked back. He took our requirements and built a weekend of property viewings that surpassed our expectations, resulting in us buying our beautiful farm house near Forcalquier in Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur. Many thanks Ryan we couldn't have done it without you.

Buy to Rent / Invest in Ciboure

Ciboure offers a rather well-balanced coastal market with typical lifestyle appeal and measured investment fundamentals. Houses typically trade between €5,000 and €8,000 per m², with exclusive waterfront or golf-facing properties exceeding this range. Apartments near the harbour or within walking distance of Saint-Jean-de-Luz usually command premium pricing relative to inland sectors.

Rental demand is strongest from late spring through early autumn, driven by beach tourism, sailing activity, and proximity to both Biarritz and northern Spain. Homes offering outdoor scapes, views, and walkability tend to perform most consistently.

Note: Rental figures are indicative and vary by property type, micro-location, and management structure.

Long-Term Value in Ciboure

Ciboure continues to attract buyers in search of understated coastal positioning with a more traditional atmosphere and without the pricing intensity of neighbouring towns. In some of the town’s most sought-after areas, values remain firm relative to regional benchmarks, particularly along the waterfront, overlooking the bay, and in established residential pockets near the port and La Nivelle golf course.

Key Drivers:

  • Scarcity of harbour-front and sea-view homes
  • Sustained domestic and international interest
  • Cross-border appeal due to proximity to Spain
  • Strong lifestyle fundamentals rooted in climate and coastal access

Purchasing in Ciboure is generally approached as a long-term residential commitment, with steady capital preservation potential.
