If the question is asking about the European Renaissance, e.g. the movement that started in North Italy in the mid-to-late 1400s and is famous for people like Leonardo da vinci, the Renaissance had absolutely no influence on Islamic Spain. By the time that the Renaissance was starting in Italy, Islamic Spain had been mostly overrun by the Christian Kingdoms Castille-Leon and Aragon. The only remaining Islamic State in Spain was the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada, which was very inward-looking and isolationist by the mid-1400s.

If the question is about the Islamic Renaissance or Islamic Golden Age, e.g. the support and patronage by the Umayyads and Early Abbassids of artistic, scientific, and cultural pursuits within their empires, this renaissance profoundly influenced Islamic Spain. The Umayyad rulers in Spain routinely supported poetry, music, art, architecture, science, medicine, math, philosophy, and theology. Spain became one of the centers of book translation and knowledge, becoming a world leader in new technologies and ideas. It led to a relatively tolerant society and a relatively high level of diversity, even though there was still legal and social inequality based on religious affiliation and slavery.

Why was Spain and Sicily the major areas of Islamic influence in Europe?

Spain (in addition to Portugal) and Sicily were not able to fight off Islamic influence as much as other areas. Arabs were able to conquer and immigrate easier to these areas than other parts of Europe. They are also fairly close to Northern Africa/the Middle East, which is where Islam originates and thrives.
