This two-bedroom, two-bathroom detached villa stands in the Blue Lagoon urbanisation of Villamartin, within the municipality of Orihuela on the southern Costa Blanca. The property was originally built in 1970 and has since been modernised, offering 75 m² of living space on a 404 m² plot. Features include a private pool, terraces, a rooftop solarium with far-reaching views, a covered carport and an underbuild for storage or conversion. The asking price is fixed at €349,995. Beaches at Cala Mosca lie approximately 3.3 km away as the crow flies, and three golf courses sit within 3 km.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Villamartin lies in the municipality of Orihuela, province of Alicante, at an elevation of 85 metres above sea level. The villa sits in the Blue Lagoon urbanisation, roughly 3.3 km straight-line from the nearest beaches and 0.5 km from Club de Golf Villamartín. Larger cities such as Murcia (33 km) and Elche (36 km) are within direct-line reach, giving the location both a residential and a coastal character.
The home offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms across 75 m², supplemented by a rooftop solarium, a private pool, terraces and an underbuild. This layout suits couples or small households seeking outdoor living space on a generous 404 m² plot, with room for parking under a covered carport. The configuration is compact indoors but extensive outdoors, which shapes the daily living pattern of the property.
This is not a new-build project. The villa dates from 1970 and has been renovated, with construction completed and the property available key-ready. No further building phases apply, and no developer delivery schedule exists. Buyers acquire an existing, finished home that can be occupied immediately after completion of the purchase process.
The property has two bedrooms and 75 m² of living area, which limits space for larger households. The home dates from 1970, meaning the structure predates current building standards. The plot is described as low-maintenance rather than a large garden. No information is available regarding an energy certificate figure or community facilities beyond the private grounds.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a permanent home on the southern Costa Blanca with manageable indoor space and generous outdoor areas would find the layout aligned with that need: two bedrooms keep cleaning and maintenance limited, while the pool, terraces and solarium extend the usable living area considerably. A buyer looking for a holiday retreat benefits from the key-ready condition, the proximity of three golf courses within 3 km and beaches at roughly 3.3 km. An investor considering rental use can rely on the year-round appeal of the Villamartin area, with 29 restaurants within 2 km and a large shopping centre nearby. The property suits buyers who value views and outdoor privacy over interior square metres, since 75 m² indoors is modest by villa standards. It also suits those who accept a 1970 structure that has been renovated rather than a new build with modern warranties. Households needing three or more bedrooms, or buyers who want a contemporary energy-efficient shell, fall outside the profile of this home. A car is effectively necessary for comfortable living here, which matches most of the Orihuela Costa urbanisations but should be understood before purchase.
The villa has been renovated, and the available photographs show the level of the finish. The living room contains a fireplace, seating areas and space for a television, indicating a conventional Spanish living room layout retained through the refurbishment. The hallway features white doors, mirrors and a tiled floor, consistent with the bright, easy-to-clean finishes typical of the region. The bathroom shown has a walk-in shower, wall-hung or freestanding vanity unit and modern tiling, suggesting the sanitary fittings have been replaced in the renovation. The property has two bathrooms, which for a two-bedroom home means both an en-suite arrangement and a guest bathroom are plausible. Externally, the pool is surrounded by palm trees and terrace areas, and the covered carport provides off-road parking. The rooftop solarium functions as an additional outdoor room with the views described. The underbuild is unfinished in the sense that it is auxiliary space, offering flexibility for storage, a workshop or further accommodation, subject to planning consent. Buyers should note the origin year of 1970: renovations modernise finishes and installations, but the structural shell and possibly parts of the wiring and plumbing date from the original construction unless documentation shows otherwise. Verification of the technical state of installations is a standard step in the Spanish purchase process, and the fixed asking price leaves room for due diligence before commitment.
The asking price is fixed at €349,995 for this existing, key-ready villa. This is not a price-list project, so there is no range of unit types or from-price; the figure applies to the single property as described. For context, new-build projects in Villamartin currently advertise from around €255,000 for apartments at SUNGOLFBEACH, €296,000 for townhouses at Villamartín Destination Phase V and €363,500 at Residencial Innova Sun. Against that backdrop, this villa's price reflects the larger plot, private pool and established position rather than new-build specifications. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard Spanish purchase process.
Daily life at this villa revolves around the outdoor spaces as much as the interior. With 75 m² inside and a 404 m² plot outside, the balance of the property leans clearly towards terraces, the private pool and the rooftop solarium. The solarium offers panoramic views over the Mediterranean, the mountains, the salt lakes and towards La Manga, which makes the upper level a natural place for morning coffee or evening meals during the warmer months. Inside, the layout is straightforward: two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room with fireplace and a hallway connecting the rooms. The underbuild provides additional space that current owners could use for storage, a workshop or conversion, subject to the usual permissions. The Blue Lagoon urbanisation has a residential character. Amenities within 2 km include 29 restaurants, a pharmacy, six banks and a café, so basic daily needs are covered without a long drive. For shopping, Zenia Boulevard, one of the largest shopping centres in the region, sits roughly 2.2 km away in a straight line. A car remains the most practical mode of transport, although the wider area counts 10 public transport lines and 50 stops. The rhythm of the area shifts with the seasons: lively in summer, considerably quieter in winter, which suits buyers who tolerate or prefer that variation.
The surroundings combine residential calm with a dense amenity base. Within 2 km, residents have access to 29 restaurants, six banks, a pharmacy and a café, which covers most daily needs. Zenia Boulevard shopping centre lies about 2.2 km away in a straight line and includes an EV charging point, alongside further charging stations at Galp (2.1 km) and Iberdrola (2.3 km), useful for electric vehicle owners. For sport, Villamartin Golf sits 0.2 km away, Sport Center Montepiedra at 4.7 km and Snatch Fitness Center at 4.8 km. Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (4.7 km) and Real Club Náutico (7.5 km), serve sailing and water sports. Public transport in the area consists of 10 lines and 50 stops, workable for occasional trips, though a car remains the practical choice for shopping, the beach and airport journeys. The urbanisation sits at 85 metres elevation, slightly above the coast, which contributes to the views from the solarium. The mix of international residents and Spanish neighbours gives Villamartin a year-round, if seasonally fluctuating, population rather than a purely summer resort feel.
The map shows the villa's position in the Blue Lagoon urbanisation beside Villamartin golf course, with the Orihuela Costa coves to the east, the salt lakes inland and the regional cities of Murcia, Elche and Cartagena arranged around it. Straight-line distances to beaches, golf, shopping and airports give a quick sense of scale.

Villamartin occupies a middle position on the southern Costa Blanca, in the municipality of Orihuela, roughly equidistant from Alicante to the north-east and the Mar Menor region to the south-west. Murcia (33 km), Elche (36 km) and Cartagena (42 km) form the regional city triangle around it. Compared with the Costa del Sol further west, this stretch of coast offers similar golf and beach infrastructure at generally lower price levels, and Alicante-Elche Airport at about 42 km straight-line keeps international access straightforward. Within the Orihuela Costa, Villamartin is one of the established golf-centred urbanisations, more residential than the beachfront strips of Playa Flamenca or La Zenia.
Distances below are straight-line; road distances and travel times are longer. The nearest beaches, Cala Mosca, Playa Cala La Mosca and Playa Cala Estaca, lie 3.3 to 3.4 km away. Three golf courses fall within 3 km: Club de Golf Villamartín at 0.5 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 2.3 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 2.9 km. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) is approximately 42 km away in a direct line, making it the natural arrival airport; Valencia (VLC) lies about 174 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol (AGP) about 360 km away. Regional cities within reach include Murcia at 33 km, Elche at 36 km and Cartagena at 42 km, all straight-line. By car, the AP-7 motorway and the N-332 coastal road connect the Orihuela Costa to these destinations, and a private vehicle is advisable for daily life. The covered carport on the plot provides parking directly at the property.

The climate data for Villamartin shows an average annual temperature of 18.9 °C, with monthly averages ranging from 12 °C in the coolest months to 26 °C in summer. This pattern supports outdoor use of the pool, terraces and solarium from spring through autumn. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20 °C or above, lasts about five months, which sets the rhythm for beach use at the nearby coves. Rainfall is limited, in line with the semi-arid southern Costa Blanca, so outdoor maintenance remains manageable year-round. At 85 metres above sea level, the plot sits on gentle terrain above the coastline, sufficient to open the panoramic views towards the sea, the salt lakes and La Manga from the rooftop solarium without imposing steep slopes on daily movement around the property. The nearby salt lakes of Torrevieja and the surrounding hills add a natural backdrop to the west and north of the urbanisation.

The closest beaches are the coves of Cala Mosca, Playa Cala La Mosca and Playa Cala Estaca, all between 3.3 and 3.4 km away as the crow flies. These are small, rocky-to-sandy coves typical of the Orihuela Costa, quieter than the broad urban beaches further south. For golfers, the location is unusually well served: Club de Golf Villamartín adjoins the urbanisation at 0.5 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor lies 2.3 km away and Club de Golf Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 2.9 km, giving three 18-hole options within a short drive. Water sports and mooring facilities are available at Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (4.7 km) and Real Club Náutico (7.5 km). Fitness options include Snatch Fitness Center at 4.8 km and Sport Center Montepiedra at 4.7 km, while the private pool on the plot covers daily swimming without leaving home. The rooftop solarium adds a recreational layer of its own, oriented towards sunrise and sunset views across the coastline.

Within Villamartin itself, the current new-build supply gives a useful benchmark. SUNGOLFBEACH advertises apartments from €255,000, Villamartín Destination Phase V offers townhouses from €296,000, and Residencial Innova Sun lists from €363,500. This villa, at a fixed €349,995, sits in the upper part of that range, but the product differs fundamentally: it is a detached property with a private pool on a 404 m² plot, whereas the comparables are apartments and townhouses, often with communal pools and smaller private outdoor areas. Buyers comparing the options are effectively weighing new-build warranties and modern energy standards against space, privacy and established surroundings. New-build apartments in the region typically offer 60-80 m² with terraces; this villa offers similar indoor space but multiples of it outdoors, plus a rooftop solarium and an underbuild. Location-wise, all four properties share the Villamartin advantages: three golf courses within 3 km, Zenia Boulevard at roughly 2 km and the Orihuela Costa coves at about 3.3 km. Compared with the wider Costa Blanca, the southern stretch around Orihuela remains priced below the Marbella-Estepona corridor on the Costa del Sol, while offering comparable sunshine hours, a similar golf density and a shorter transfer from Alicante-Elche Airport than many Costa del Sol locations have from Málaga. The 1970 construction date places this villa among the older stock of the urbanisation; buyers prioritising contemporary insulation and efficiency may lean towards the new-build alternatives, while those prioritising plot size and immediate views will find little in the immediate price bracket that matches this configuration. The fixed asking price also removes the reservation-stage uncertainty that applies to off-plan purchases, where completion dates are indicative and construction risk sits with the buyer until delivery.
