I'd love to!  I tend to leave my apartment for family to use in the hottest months though.  They all love the really high temps.  Not for me.  I love May and June and October too - especially with some really interesting severe weather events.  I also love to nip across o...

Great will be on Calle Rafal if it all goes through ok. We liked that there was a supermarket and bars very close and that the beach was at the end of the road. 

Bus seems to be handy too as we took a trip in from centre of Torrevieja one night to check out the area.

With Dialprix and other local shops in the community there won't be too much you'll need.  The 24hr shop in Urbano Aregui (which isn't always 24hrs) is also really good for buying bits and bobs.

About a mile towards Punta Prima there is an Aldi.  About a mile north-east there's the Carrefour.  Both shouldn't cost too much for a taxi if you don't plan on hiring a car - for a main weekly shop.  But otherwise, what's around you will be absolutely fine.  I also see neighb...
