The apartment is on the ground floor of a two-storey building, and has 5 steps up from the garden to the front door. Internally all rooms are on the same level.

The private front garden is paved and planted with Mediterranean plants. There is a covered balcony where you can sit and enjoy a nice bottle of wine. To the rear of the building is an area of landscaped gardens with a large swimming pool and a paddling pool for toddlers, a petanque pit and tables and chairs all set within secure gates. The pool is shared with the other residents but you will often have it all to yourself. Parking is available in front of the property.
Coast/Beach
The whole coast of Costa Blanca is littered with stunning sandy beaches. A 30 minute walk along a paved cycleway takes you to beaches in Torrevieja. A 15 minute drive takes you to the sand dunes at Guardamar and stunning beaches at La Marina, La Matta, La Zenia and Campoamor, or the beautiful bays of Cabo Roig and Cala Capitan. Most beaches have cafes and play and climbing equipment for children.

Special interest holidays
The areas surrounding our apartment and the adjacent salt lakes are part of a large nature reserve well known for its wildlife in particular a wide variety of birds. We have had a number of guests renting our apartment particularly to spend their time bird-watching.
Travel
Alicante airport is 40 minutes to the north and Murcia airport a similar distance to the south. Both have excellent car hire facilities which can be booked in the UK. Alternatively we can arrange airport transfers which are paid locally. A car is not essential as there is a bus stop at the end of the street and all amenities and shops are within walking distance, but we would recommend hiring a car if you are to get the most out of this area.
Distances
Torrevieja is one and a half hours drive south of Benidorm.
Further details
Torrevieja is a Spanish resort full of bars and restaurants with a lovely promenade which is lined each evening with market stalls. There is a large marina and boat trips run regularly to the island of Tabarca. A large market is held in Torrevieja each Friday and daily at other towns up and down the coast.

About the owner
We bought Casa Iona from new in 2005 and love spending time in Spain relaxing with our 3 children. At home Helen runs a Brownie pack and we are all heavily involved as members of Kingswood Methodist Church. Martin tries to play golf when he can, but struggles to find the time to play very often.
Year purchased: 2005
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We bought our apartment as a "get away from it all" in the sun. The area is very peaceful and yet very close to all amenities. Helen also has family living nearby. We live in Bristol and can easily fly to either Murcia or Alicante and can be sat on the terrace within 5 hours of leaving home.
Unique benefits of the property
Our apartment is very easy to get to, and whilst located in a quiet residential area, benefits from being very close to all amenities including shops and bars, and with a wide selection of beautiful sandy beaches on the doorstep, the sound of the sea is never far away. There are 30 golf courses within an hour's drive of the apartment. Most of all, we have come to love this part of Spain and it feels like coming home every time we visit.
