This completed ground-floor apartment is situated in Guardamar del Segura, a coastal municipality of roughly 18,500 residents at the mouth of the river Segura on the southern Costa Blanca. The property offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 108 m² of living space, complemented by a 290 m² south-facing private terrace with an outdoor kitchen and pergola. The town centre, supermarket and pharmacy are within walking distance, and the nearest Blue Flag beach lies roughly 400 metres away. Alicante-Elche airport is approximately 24 km straight-line distance. The building dates from 1970 (completion date indicative) and includes two underground parking spaces and access to a communal swimming pool.
Within Guardamar del Segura itself, three new-build developments frame the comparison: Royal Beach (from €269,500), Naia Blue Horizon (from €305,000) and Oasis Guardamar (from €332,500). This resale apartment, at €379,000, sits above all three entry prices, the inverse of the usual resale-versus-new-build pattern on the Costa Blanca. The premium is explained by what the newer projects sell as entry-level units: here the buyer receives a finished three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout, a 290 m² private terrace, two underground parking spaces and immediate availability, whereas the comparables quote from-prices for smaller units delivered over a construction period. Regionally, Guardamar is positioned between Alicante city (24 km) and Torrevieja (roughly 15 km), and its market has historically traded below Torrevieja's beachfront premiums while offering a more year-round, service-complete town fabric, the 18,500 resident population supports commerce through winter in a way that smaller urbanisations nearer Orihuela Costa do not. Buyers comparing across the area effectively weigh three profiles: new-build specification and warranty (the three Guardamar developments), resort-style gated environments further south, or, as here, an established central location with outdoor space that new construction at this price rarely matches. The trade-off is the 1970 building origin, meaning pre-current-code construction and an unstated energy rating, against a walkable setting where supermarket, pharmacy, 62 restaurants and the beach all fall within a kilometre. For the Mediterranean lifestyle that draws international buyers to the Costa Blanca, morning markets, evening paseos, pine-forest walks between the dunes, this location supplies the setting; the newer developments supply the specification. Which matters more depends on the buyer's priorities.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment sits in the urban core of Guardamar del Segura, roughly 400, 800 metres from Platja de La Roqueta and Platja Centre. A supermarket is 309 metres away and a pharmacy 248 metres. The town lies at the mouth of the river Segura, bordered by a large pine forest and an 11-kilometre sand beach. The nearest hospital is 7.7 km away and the closest golf course 12 km.
The dwelling suits households seeking a move-in-ready coastal home with substantial outdoor space. Three double bedrooms and two bathrooms accommodate families or visiting guests. The 290 m² south-facing terrace, outdoor kitchen and two parking spaces in the underground garage serve extended outdoor living and practical storage needs. A communal pool and secure bicycle storage are included.
This is not a new-build development. The building was completed in 1970 (date indicative) and the apartment is delivered in ready-to-occupy condition with hot and cold air conditioning installed. No construction phase applies; the transaction concerns an existing, completed resale property. Interior photographs show a renovated living area with an open-plan kitchen and modern fireplace.
The property offers no sea-view elevation, no private pool and no underfloor heating; heating and cooling are provided by air conditioning. There is no lift-dependent penthouse orientation; this is a ground-floor unit. The nearest EV charging point is 4.2 km away. The building's 1970 origin means pre-modern construction standards apply, and no new-build warranty scheme covers the purchase. The slope to the beach measures approximately 7%.
This property matches several recognisable situations. A family needing three genuine double bedrooms and two bathrooms, with space for children to play on the terrace, will find the layout and the secure bicycle storage practical. Retirees or part-year residents who want a walkable town, pharmacy, supermarket, doctor's services and the beach all within a kilometre, can manage largely without a car, which is a concrete advantage over more peripheral developments. Buyers prioritising outdoor living over views will note that the 290 m² south-facing terrace is larger than the interior itself, an unusual ratio for a coastal apartment at this price point. The property also suits buyers who do not wish to wait for construction: it is finished, air-conditioned and can be occupied directly, unlike the off-plan comparables in the same town. Conversely, it fits less well for households wanting a modern energy certificate, a private pool, panoramic sea views or an elevator-accessed upper-floor position. Buyers using the property for part of the year will find the underground parking and the year-round services of an 18,500-resident town convenient, while those seeking a gated resort environment with on-site facilities should consider the newer developments nearby instead.
The interior photographs show a renovated standard: a bright open-plan living and dining area with a white sofa setting and tan-toned walls, a modern fireplace integrated into the living/dining zone, and a fully equipped open kitchen. The master bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom; the two remaining double bedrooms share a second, modern family bathroom. Flooring and joinery visible in the imagery are consistent with a contemporary refurbishment rather than original 1970 fittings. Climate control is provided by hot-and-cold air conditioning throughout, which in this climate covers both summer cooling and mild-winter heating. Outdoor finishes follow a deliberately styled scheme: the 290 m² terrace is executed in what the listing describes as an Ibiza-influenced design, with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, a pergola for shade and distinct zones for dining, lounging and children's play. Practical infrastructure includes plentiful internal storage, a lockable bicycle storage room, and two private parking spaces in the communal underground garage. Structural context matters: the building originates from 1970, so construction predates current CTE building codes and modern insulation standards; no energy certificate value is stated in the available data, and buyers should verify this figure. There is no underfloor heating, no home automation and no private pool; the communal landscaped pool serves the building.
The asking price is €379,000 for a completed, immediately available three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment of 108 m². This equates to roughly €3,500 per m² of interior space, with the 290 m² terrace, two underground parking spaces and bicycle storage included rather than priced separately. Within Guardamar itself, current new-build comparables start from €269,500 (Royal Beach), €305,000 (Naia Blue Horizon) and €332,500 (Oasis Guardamar); this resale unit is positioned above those entry prices, which reflects the finished condition, the terrace surface and the central location. As a resale property, the price is a fixed asking price rather than a from-price across a unit range.
Daily life around this apartment is organised around foot traffic. The supermarket sits 309 metres from the door, the pharmacy 248 metres, and within a two-kilometre radius the area counts 62 restaurants, 30 cafés, 8 banks, 6 pharmacies and 4 dentists, a density that makes routine errands manageable without a car. The living rhythm is coastal-urban: mornings can start on the south-facing terrace, which receives sun throughout the day and offers shaded zones under the pergola, and the beach is a five-to-ten minute walk via a route with an approximately 7% gradient. The apartment functions as a ground-floor base rather than a view property; its principal asset is the 290 m² terrace, laid out with an outdoor kitchen, pergola and multiple seating areas, effectively extending the 108 m² interior across most of the year given the local climate. Evenings tend toward the town: the promenade, the pine forest walks along the dunes, and the restaurants of the centre are all within walking distance. Out of the summer season Guardamar retains a full resident population, so cafés, shops and services remain open year-round rather than closing after the tourist months. For sport, a municipal heated pool lies 1.1 km away, a gymnasium 0.6 km, and the marina at Marina de les Dunes 3.2 km. Eight public transport lines with 50 stops serve the town, connecting towards Torrevieja and Alicante. A car is useful for hospital visits (7.7 km), golf (12 km+) and airport runs, but not required for daily living.
Guardamar del Segura sits at the mouth of the river Segura, between the dunes and pine forest to the south and the urban centre along the coast. The immediate surroundings of the apartment are urban and fully serviced: with 62 restaurants, 30 cafés, 8 banks and 6 pharmacies within two kilometres, daily provisioning requires no vehicle. The nearest beach, Platja de La Roqueta, is roughly 400 metres away on a route with an approximately 7% gradient, noticeable but short. Sport and leisure infrastructure is close: Gimnasio Olimpus at 0.6 km, the heated Piscina Manel Estiarte municipal pool at 1.0 km, the municipal swimming pool at 1.1 km, and the Marina de les Dunes sports harbour at 3.2 km. Healthcare is a consideration: the nearest hospital is 7.7 km away, while pharmacies and dentists are within walking distance. Transport runs on 8 public lines across 50 stops. The town's population of about 18,500 (INE 2025) sustains year-round commerce, and the median provincial income of €15,750 indicates a mixed local-and-tourist economy rather than a purely seasonal resort.
The map shows the apartment's position within Guardamar's urban grid, roughly 400 metres from the beachfront. Supermarket and pharmacy markers cluster within one block; the hospital marker 7.7 km inland and the golf courses to the northwest illustrate the distances that require a car. Alicante-Elche airport appears to the north.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Guardamar del Segura occupies the southern Costa Blanca, at the boundary between the Alicante metropolitan coast and the Torrevieja stretch. Alicante city and its airport are approximately 24 km north (straight-line), Torrevieja roughly 15 km south, and Orihuela Costa with its golf cluster begins beyond that. The town is positioned as a mid-size, service-complete alternative to the larger resort nuclei: quieter than Torrevieja, smaller than Alicante, with the pine forest and river mouth giving it a distinct physical setting. Within the local market, this apartment is a central-urban resale product, whereas the comparable new developments in Guardamar sit closer to the beachfront edges of town.
Beaches are the strongest proximity factor: Platja Centre at 404 m, Platja de La Roqueta at 520 m and Platja Babilònia at 944 m straight-line, with five Blue Flag beaches in the municipality (Centre, De Vivers, Del Moncayo, La Roqueta and Ortigues-Campo). The supermarket (309 m) and pharmacy (248 m) are closer still. Alicante-Elche airport (ALC) lies approximately 24 km straight-line, roughly a 30, 35 minute drive, making short international flights practical; Valencia airport is 157 km and Málaga 374 km. Golf requires a vehicle: Club de Golf La Finca at 12 km, Villamartín at 18 km and the Elche golf school at 20 km. The nearest EV charging point is 4.2 km away at the Iberdrola Oasis Centre, a detail relevant for electric-vehicle owners given the two included parking spaces.

The climate data is a defining feature of the location. Historical sunshine totals reach approximately 3,843 hours per year, and the average annual temperature is 18.7°C within a 12, 26°C band. The swim season, months with sea temperatures of 20°C or above, runs roughly five months, which sets realistic expectations for sea swimming versus terrace use; the south-facing 290 m² terrace remains usable for a longer period than the sea itself. The town sits at 33 metres above sea level, low and flat in the centre, with the 7% slope toward the beach the principal gradient. Immediately south of the urban area lies Guardamar's pine forest, planted historically to stabilise the dunes at the river mouth, providing shaded walking and cycling terrain unusual for a coastal resort. The 11-kilometre sand beach and the river Segura estuary add natural boundaries to the municipality's 35.6 km².

Guardamar holds five Blue Flag beaches: Centre, De Vivers, Del Moncayo, La Roqueta and Ortigues-Campo, an indication of consistent water quality and services across the 11-kilometre coastline. From the apartment, Platja Centre and Platja de La Roqueta are both within a ten-minute walk, and Platja Babilònia under fifteen. Recreational facilities beyond the beach include the Marina de les Dunes (3.2 km) for sailing and water sports, two swimming pools within 1.1 km including the heated Manel Estiarte facility usable year-round, and a gymnasium at 0.6 km. Golfers have three options within 20 km: La Finca (12 km), Villamartín (18 km) and the Elche golf school (20 km). Walking and cycling routes through the municipal pine forest along the dunes begin effectively at the edge of town, offering shaded recreation during the hotter months.
