* Possible areas within Guardamar to live? Guardamar plus points * - Page 2

Yes, I agree.  There seems to be a lot of panic talking on the forums about how houses are not selling/prices have dropped etc etc.  However, we have been looking since last October and have seen a lot of properties sell very quickly/prices going up.  Houses that were in our budget last year, are now over budget and also selling before we can even view.  The village that we have been looking at in the Orba Valley has 3 British couples moving there just this week - so there is definitely a lot of interest in buying in Spain.  

Our budget seems to be more realistic in CQ, so hopeful we can find something really nice within the next few months.

If you want Sunday Roast, fish & chips & nightly entertainment and live in a mini Britain try Queseda lovely houses, nice lively area then  Guardamar is not for you. However if you want to live in a town with a more Spanish feel, more relaxed and quite, has a beautiful beach, lovely restaurants then make Guardamar your home. It all depends on what your priority is good luck in your choice

We have an apartment in Guardamar which we use as our holiday home  we love Guardamar as it is a Spanish working town  

If you are moving permanently and looking for lots of activities etc I too would recommend Quesada Benimar Benijofar and Rojales as previously mentioned 

Lots going on here and a good expat community and very friendly  

I too would recommend renting  but on the other hand prices are rising again and properties moving so keep an eye on the market  

All of these areas are an easy drivefeom Alicante 

Hi Lesley D. I have just bought in Guardamar. I’m coming back in July. Where is a good place to head for to meet some ex pats? I will also check out the Spanish lessons as when I come out on my own would like to do some. I am having lessons in the UK.

Thanks. Den C

Hi Den C

The Shamrock pub is a good place to meet up with expats.
