Description
By ten in the morning, the sun is already warm on the terrace tiles and the pool is throwing little ribbons of light across the garden wall. You're sitting with a coffee, listening to absolutely nothing except a distant lawnmower and the occasional clatter from a neighbor's kitchen. This is a Tuesday. This is just a regular Tuesday at this three-bedroom villa on Orihuela Costa, and it already feels like a weekend somewhere else would feel after three days of trying.
The villa sits on a 350-square-meter plot in one of the Costa Blanca's most consistently popular stretches of coastline, where the Alicante province tapers south toward Murcia and the climate gets genuinely ridiculous — over 320 days of sunshine annually, winters so mild that January lunches on the terrace are not a novelty but a habit. The property itself covers 120 square meters of interior space across a thoughtful, livable layout: three bedrooms, two full bathrooms with walk-in showers, a generously proportioned living room that fills with afternoon light, and an open-plan kitchen that actually functions as the social center of the home rather than an afterthought tucked behind a wall.
Out front, the private pool is the centerpiece — not a decorative gesture, but a proper swimming pool surrounded by a shaded terrace where you can eat, argue about whose turn it is to cook, and eventually fall asleep in a chair. There's real space here for outdoor dining furniture, sun loungers, a barbecue setup. The kind of space where a family of five or a group of friends can spread out without constantly bumping into each other.
Orihuela Costa itself is a place that rewards the people who take the time to understand it. The Playa de La Zenia beach is roughly ten minutes by car — wide, sandy, and far calmer in October and May than the crowded high-summer scenes further north near Benidorm. Campoamor beach is another good option, quieter, with a sailing club attached to the marina where you can arrange everything from a sunset cruise to a week-long sailing course. The Golf de Campoamor and Golf de Las Ramblas courses are both within a fifteen-minute drive, which goes some way to explaining why this area draws so many Northern European and British second-home buyers year after year.
The town of Orihuela itself, about 20 kilometers inland, is worth a proper afternoon. It's a Baroque city that most tourists skip in favor of the coast, which is their loss — the Cathedral of Saints Cosmas and Damian dates to the 13th century, there's a beautifully preserved old town with narrow streets that stay cool even in August, and the Semana Santa processions in late March and early April are among the most atmospheric in the entire Valencia region. If you're around in October, the Moros y Cristianos festival fills the streets with costumes, music, and a particular kind of local pride that's genuinely infectious rather than performative.
For day-to-day life, the La Zenia Boulevard shopping center is three kilometers from the coast and covers everything from supermarkets to pharmacy chains to a decent restaurant row. The local mercadillos — open-air markets — rotate through the nearby towns on different days of the week, and the Friday market at Torrevieja is worth the short drive for fresh fish, local olives, and the kind of tomatoes that actually taste like tomatoes. Torrevieja itself is 15 minutes north and has a proper city center with tapas bars, a covered market, and the famous pink salt lakes of the Parque Natural de las Laguanas — a genuinely strange and photogenic landscape that catches first-time visitors completely off guard.
The nearest airport is Alicante-Elche, around 45 minutes away. Murcia-Corvera airport, which has expanded its routes significantly in recent years, is about 40 minutes south. Between the two, there are direct connections to most major cities in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Scandinavia — which is a practical detail that matters enormously for a second home purchase. The easier the flight, the more often you'll actually use the property.
For international buyers, Spain's property purchase process involves a 10% transfer tax on resale properties (ITP), notary and registry fees, and the requirement for a Spanish NIE number — straightforward to obtain, and any local gestoría can handle the paperwork efficiently. Non-resident owners pay a small annual imputed income tax on the property. If you choose to let it out during periods you're not using it, the Costa Blanca rental market is robust: properties in this area with private pools regularly achieve occupancy of 15 to 20 weeks annually through platforms like Airbnb and VRBO, with peak-week rates that can offset a meaningful portion of annual ownership costs.
The villa is in good condition and ready to use immediately — there's no renovation project waiting for you on the other side of the sale. Whether you want to move in with your own furniture or bring in a local interior company to furnish it for the rental market, the property is a clean, functional canvas.
