Buy a Flat in Spain – Your Ideal Apartment

Why Buy a Flat in Spain? Key Benefits for Buyers

Tom and Susan came for just another two-week holiday from Dublin. Sunshine, sea, seafood, sun loungers and cocktails by the pool - the usual getaway.
But everything changed on day three, when Susan looked out over the sea from the balcony of their rental apartment and quietly said:
“Why do we always leave this place… when this is the only place we actually feel alive?”
That moment, as Tom later told us, changed everything. Because home, they realized, isn’t where you were born. Home is where your soul rests.
They weren’t planning to buy property. They just came for a break. But they flew back with a purchase contract in hand… and the first page of their new life in Spain.

From a Leap of Faith to a Life of Freedom

Just six months later, they were living in their new apartment on the Costa Blanca. They woke up to the rustle of palm trees, walked to the local market, had breakfast on their terrace, and enjoyed dinner with friends under warm sunsets.
And you know what? They never looked back.

Why did they choose Spain?

• 300+ days of sunshine - not just a number, but vitamin D, good moods, outdoor evenings, and health
• Affordable real estate – what would cost £700,000–£800,000 in the UK, they bought for just €275,000 - 5 minutes from the sea, with a garden and a pool
• Low utility costs and fair taxation
• High-quality healthcare, including affordable private clinics
• And most importantly - peace. No constant rush, no endless rain, no stress.

A New Chapter Begins

Susan now works remotely, just a few hours a day, and spends the rest of her time tending the garden and learning Spanish. Tom, a lifelong golf lover, plays three times a week - the best golf courses are just five minutes away.
When their children come for the holidays, they can’t believe how much younger their parents look. And quietly, they start to wonder: “Should we move here too?”
Buying a flat in Spain isn’t running from something. It’s running towards something better. And if you’re still reading, maybe you’re the next Tom or Susan.You don’t need to be a millionaire. You just need the will to live a better life.

Why Orihuela Costa is the Best Region for UK & Ireland Buyers

When Tom and Susan chose Spain, the next question was: where exactly? Costa del Sol? Too busy. The Balearic Islands? Too touristy. Then they stumbled upon a name they hadn’t heard before: Orihuela Costa. “Never heard of it,” Tom laughed, scrolling through a map on his tablet. Two weeks later, they arrived in La Zenia - and knew instantly: This is home.

Why Orihuela Costa?

• A true international community – Brits, Irish, Scandinavians, Germans, all smiling and offering kumquats from their garden trees
• English-speaking infrastructure – from medical centres and dentists to banks and schools
• Clean beaches and scenic promenades – La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Playa Flamenca… the stuff you dream of during grey November days
• World-class golf courses - Tom fell in love with Villamartin Golf and Las Ramblas
• And above all — safety and peace. Kids play in parks without fear, and no one remembers the last time they locked the door twice.

Susan later said: “Orihuela Costa isn’t just a part of Spain. It’s the place where our family truly found itself.”

Choose the Right Spanish Apartment for You

Their new flat was even better than the photos. It wasn’t the square meters or the bathroom tiles that made them fall in love. It was the feeling - the light, the space, the air of freedom.
