About us

We founded our family business in Barcelona 22 years ago, specialising in the purchase and sale of properties for Family Offices and local and international investors. With the aim of maximising the real estate profitability of these assets, we expanded our business model by creating a department specialised in holiday rental management. Through brands with an impeccable reputation, we have consolidated excellent results for our owners and strategic partners.

Why trust The Sun Places?

Proprietary technology for real estate success

To optimise operations, we developed an internal management software so efficient that we ended up marketing it to third-party companies globally. This duality made us one of the few corporations in the sector capable of merging proprietary technological development with tourist apartment management, obtaining key data on the best national and international destinations.

Our leap to Andalusia: Experience and best practices

Now, we are transferring our entire infrastructure, agile vision and strategic knowledge to Andalusia. We want to accompany new property owners in the region with the highest standards of excellence, transparency and best market practices.

We speak your same language: From owner to owner

  • We understand your challenges: We are property owners, just like you. We know first-hand your doubts, fears and expectations, and we know exactly how to resolve them.
  • Leadership in the sector: Our CEO has held various executive positions in the sector's leading associations. This track record allows us to understand, debate and actively improve relationships with public institutions and local regulations.

Maximise your property's performance with experts

Let us bring our experience and technology as the differentiating value that your property needs in the tourist market.

Our Values: The engine of your profitability

Leadership and Authority: Meet our CEO, Xavier Robert

Behind The Sun Places is the vision of Xavier Robert, CEO, founder and the strategic driving force behind this real estate project.

With a career of more than 30 years in the real estate sector, Xavier began his journey specialising in the purchase and sale and management of real estate assets for major accounts, investment funds and Family Offices.

Career and success in the tourist apartment sector

In 2007, he co-founded BCN Apartment Rentals and Be Apartment, brands that quickly positioned themselves as market leaders. His differential approach was the comprehensive management of entire buildings of tourist apartments, covering everything from rehabilitation and strategic interior design to operational start-up.
