Series 3 Episode 18 of A Place in the Sun begins with our host, Jasmine Harman, travelling to Costa Blanca, a popular holiday region in Spain. Her task is to help a young British couple, Darryl and Michelle, find their dream home in the sun. With a budget of £100,000, they are looking for a two-bedroom property with a pool and easy access to the beach.

The first property Jasmine takes them to is a ground floor apartment in the town of Villamartin. The apartment has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool and a terrace with views of the surrounding hills. The living room is spacious and luminous, while the kitchen is modern and well-equipped. Darryl and Michelle are impressed with the property, although they express some concerns about its location, as it is not within walking distance of the beach.

The second property is a townhouse in Villamartin, which is within walking distance of the beach. The house has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool and a rooftop terrace with views of the sea. The kitchen is open-plan and the living room is cozy and inviting. Darryl and Michelle like the house, but they feel that it is too small for their needs and they are not keen on having to climb stairs to get to the bedrooms.

The third property is a detached villa in the town of San Miguel de Salinas. The villa has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool and a large garden with views of the countryside. The living room is spacious and features a fireplace, while the kitchen is modern and well-equipped. Darryl and Michelle are impressed with the size and layout of the villa, but they feel that it is too isolated and far from the beach.

The fourth property is a ground floor apartment in the coastal town of Torrevieja. The apartment has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool and a terrace with views of the sea. The living room is bright and airy, while the kitchen is stylish and modern. Darryl and Michelle love the apartment and feel that it ticks all their boxes. They are particularly impressed with its location, as it is close to the beach, restaurants and shops.

Finally, Jasmine takes them to a surprise property, which is over their budget at £120,000. The property is a detached villa in the town of Los Altos, which has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a pool and a rooftop terrace with views of the sea. The living room is spacious and features a fireplace, while the kitchen is modern and open-plan. Darryl and Michelle are blown away by the villa and are tempted to stretch their budget to buy it.

After viewing all the properties, Darryl and Michelle have a tough decision to make. They loved the location and amenities of the first property, the proximity to the beach of the second, the size and layout of the third, and the location of the fourth. As for the surprise property, while they loved it, they realized it was over their budget.

In the end, Darryl and Michelle decide to put an offer on the fourth property, the ground floor apartment in Torrevieja. They feel that it meets all their requirements and is the best value for money. Jasmine helps them to negotiate with the seller, and they successfully agree on a price of £95,000.
