Holiday property in Torrevieja, direct from the owners

Torrevieja . . .

The pale golden, sandy beaches and coves around Torrevieja shelve gently into the warm Mediterranean and are among the best beaches in Spain. There are beaches backed by sand dunes with room for the kids to play, smaller, quieter beaches with barely another person in sight, busy town beaches, rocky coves and exclusive bays. Torrevieja is a beach lovers paradise!

There is an Aqua Park in the town and go kart tracks on the outskirts, a theme park is a short drive away and a different golf course for every day of your stay can be found just moments from the accommodation we offer!

The centre of town is packed with individual shops, there's an ultra modern shopping centre where you can find the larger stores. An evening market and a permanent fun fair can be found by the harbour while the indoor food market is the place to go for the freshest, cheapest produce. The bars, shops and restaurants will tempt you, while their prices will amaze you!

Eating out in Torrevieja . . .

From Chinese to Pizza, burgers to pasta, Paella to Tapas or fresh fish to a sizzling steak, there's a restaurant here that will suit you. If its chicken off the spit or German pork steaks, Irish, Dutch, Vietnamese, Hungarian, Indian, fish & chips or McDonalds you fancy, it's here.

To keep costs down, order vino de casa (wine of the house) with your meal. Tinto is red, Blanco is white and Rosado is Rose, the Menu del dia (menu of the day) is usually three courses and offers great value

Drinks are often accompanied by a completely free, small plate of crisps, nuts, olives or baby gherkins for you to enjoy

To many people part of the fun of the evening 'promenade' is to sit in one of the pavement cafe bars and people watch over drinks or ice creams. An ice cold cerveza (lager) or Cuba Libre (Bacardi, coke and a twist of lime with lots of ice) will help to finish off the evening nicely!

In busy areas, traffic is often banished as dusk falls and you'll see tables and chairs take the place of cars, motorbikes and scooters. With many of the shops open until 9 or even 10:00 pm there is a pleasant 'bubble' that few fail to enjoy!
