Location

I would certainly recommend renting for an extended period to make sure you liked the area. 

If you do decide on buying an apartment the top floor is recommended. I have neighbours above and can often hear them walking around in the early morning hours and especially when the lady wears high heels......

Thanks for the reply Steve,its only a top floor apartment i would buy TBH,i myself have experienced noisy neighbors from above in the past. 

Thanks again Rob

Just consider when buying position to bars, as people sit outside until very late, plus out

 door for smoking will result in noise from outside. 

Formentera is a lovely village and anywhere is a good location. Can't comment on the Las Palacio area as its nearer Rojales. 

Things to think about ... being near bars means late night doors. Being near to the communal pool means lots of noise, particularly in the tourist season. If you buy an apartment with a lift the communal fees are much higher. Have a look at the maisonettes at the end of Communidad Valenciana, opposite the padel and tennis courts. 

Hi,and thanks for your advice,had a look at the at the area you suggested but can’t see anything for sale at present.I’m not in a rush at the moment but do look daily just to see what’s up forsale.Would like to know the outcome first with this brexit issue.

Regards Robbie

Hi, we have a top floor apartment near the row with flloyds, rumours and dialaprix and the views are great. Handy for these bars/shop but also for the rest of the village. 

We also walk over to Benimar/Benijófar for food/drink via the bridge during day and along the main road at night.

It’s a lovely wee village and can drive to other surrounding areas including Quesada and to the beach. 
Happy house hunting

Think about leaks from the roof could be very costly.
