Over 50 percent of Torrevieja town (10 mins drive) consists of two enormous Salt Lakes of Torrevieja and La Mata, which gives it its microclimate. Bathing in the salt lakes is known to be effective against asthma, rheumatism, dermatological conditions, heart diseases, skin disorders and other health problems, which is why many North-European sufferers have tried the area and moved in for good.
With an average annual temperature of over 20 degrees centigrade and 340 days sunshine a year, this makes the area a very healthy climate, recommended by international doctors. The salt lakes are now also a thriving bird reserve and Natural Park.

Cartegena, Murcia city and Alicante are all within a 40 minute drive away and offer a multitude of museums, shops, cafes and restaurants. About an hour drive north you can reach Benidorm with its theme parks and renowned great night-life.

Orihuela is just a 20mins drive inland through the orange and lemon groves; and is a historical town unspoilt by tourism, with churches and museums and some interesting architecture. Siesta is observed and everything shuts down for the afternoon.

Every night there was something to do: quiz and bingo night, live music, karaoke, football games. The apartment was perfect. Clean and cute. Grocery store right below us so we cooked and drank wine... more |

At short notice I had to visit Spain for 3 nights on business and chose this apartment for location, price and prompt response to my enquiry. Linen and towels were included so I could travel with just hand-luggage. Was met by Christine the owner and pleased that all mod-cons available and in working order. The apartment was quite stylish and had a homely feel to it. As I was alone, it was good to have English TV. Bit of a hubub at night from the Villamatin plaza below but it didn't disturb my sleep at all. Supermarket downstairs very handy and plenty of bars & restaurants (so no need for taxis during my stay). Bathroom cabinet had lots of leftover bits'n'bobs which was a nice touch. So was the few larder items.The apartment was clean and secure. I was very pleased and would happily use again should the need arise. |

We came here on our honeymoon - as we know the area well, it was larger than we had expected - as the photo's don't get the true size captured. Fully stocked with all you could need and very convienant supermarket literally just below. We had some cloudy and rainy days but it did not spoil it one bit as we just sat on the balcony reading or when it was rainy we chilled out watching DvD's. The plaza is fantastic - we had awesome food out every night and even though we were right on top of the plaza when you shut the doors over to go to bed - the noise was also shut out. We had an amazing honeymoon & would definitly rent the apartment again :-) |
