This detached villa of 302 m² stands on an 854 m² plot in the Las Comunicaciones urbanisation of San Miguel de Salinas, in the south of the province of Alicante. The property, originally completed in 1970 and since renovated, offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with a private pool, jacuzzi, sauna and gym. The town centre, with its supermarkets, pharmacies and cafés, lies within walking distance, while the beaches of Orihuela Costa are approximately 7.7 km away. The asking price is €799,000 and the property is completed and ready for occupancy.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
San Miguel de Salinas is an inland town in the Vega Baja del Segura comarca, roughly 95 metres above sea level, a few kilometres from the Orihuela Costa shoreline. The villa sits in an established urbanisation adjoining the town itself, which places daily amenities within walking distance: a pharmacy at 30 metres and a supermarket at under 300 metres. Three golf courses lie between 5 and 6 km away.
The property functions as a full-sized family villa: four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a designer kitchen, a dining room furnished in Italian style, and a private gym. Outdoor facilities include a private pool, jacuzzi, sauna, outdoor shower, covered terraces, a bar and barbecue area, and two solariums with views towards the Torrevieja coast. A glazed winter lounge and a log-burning stove extend use into cooler months.
This is not a new-build development. The villa was originally completed in 1970 and is delivered in a completed, renovated state, which removes construction and delivery risk but shifts the assessment to the quality of the refurbishment. Air conditioning and a fireplace are installed. As an existing property, the purchase process follows resale rather than off-plan procedures, with immediate availability rather than phased handover dates.
The property offers open parking only; no enclosed garage is listed. There is no sea view, the listed views are mountain and country views, with coastal views from the solariums towards Torrevieja. No energy certificate is stated in the available data. The villa is inland: the nearest beach is approximately 7.7 km away, so it does not offer walk-to-beach living. No community facilities such as a communal pool or landscaped estate services are included.
This villa suits several recognisable situations. A family relocating permanently to the Costa Blanca South will find four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a school within two kilometres and a pharmacy within 30 metres, a practical configuration for full-time residence rather than holiday use. Buyers seeking a second home that works across all seasons may value the glazed winter lounge, log stove and sauna, which extend usability beyond the four-month warm-water season. Purchasers who prioritise outdoor entertaining, the bar, barbecue area, jacuzzi and covered terraces, over immediate beach access will find the layout matches that preference, accepting a 7.7 km drive to the nearest cove. Golfers are well served: three courses, including Las Colinas Golf & Country Club, lie within six kilometres. The property is less suited to buyers who want to walk to the beach, who require an enclosed garage, or who seek new-build energy certification, none of these are offered. International buyers should note the logistics: Alicante-Elche airport is roughly 40 km away, a straightforward drive of around 40 minutes. Those unfamiliar with the area should also understand the town's character: San Miguel de Salinas is a Spanish municipality first and a residential destination second, so winter services remain intact while the immediate environment is more local and less internationally oriented than Orihuela Costa or Torrevieja. For a buyer who wants space, privacy, and town amenities at walking distance, with the coast as a short drive rather than the doorstep, the configuration aligns well.
The interior finish reflects a comprehensive renovation of the 1970 structure rather than original construction. The kitchen is described as a designer installation, and photographic evidence shows a modern sink unit oriented towards the outdoor view; the dining room is furnished in Italian style. Bathrooms are fitted with modern shower units. The living room combines contemporary décor with a working fireplace and television wall. One bedroom, identifiable as the master by its balcony access, opens directly onto outdoor space. Climate control operates on two systems: installed air conditioning for summer and a log-burning stove for winter, a common and effective pairing in this climate where average temperatures range from 12°C in the coldest months to 26°C in summer. The wellness infrastructure, private gym, sauna, jacuzzi and outdoor shower, represents a level of investment beyond standard villa specification in this price band. Two solariums and a glazed winter lounge indicate attention to year-round use. Because the property dates from 1970, structural elements such as the roof, electrics and plumbing merit independent technical survey; the renovation quality visible in finish materials does not by itself document the condition of systems concealed within walls. No energy performance certificate figure is provided in the available data. Parking is open, on-plot or street, without a garage structure. Buyers comparing this property against new-build villas in the same municipality should weigh the age of the base structure against the completed, immediately deliverable state and the established garden and pool, which newly delivered plots typically lack.
The asking price is €799,000 for a completed, renovated detached villa of 302 m² on an 854 m² plot, approximately €2,645 per m² of built area. Within San Miguel de Salinas, comparable listed properties range from €759,000 (Villa Idealis) to €1,000,000 (Mirador del Sol), placing this villa in the middle of the local upper segment. Availability is immediate, as the property is completed and delivered in a resale transaction. Buyers should budget for standard purchase costs in the Valencian Community, transfer tax, notary and registry fees, which typically add roughly 10–13% to the purchase price.
Daily life at this villa revolves around the town rather than the coast. San Miguel de Salinas is a working Spanish municipality of roughly 7,200 inhabitants, and the urbanisation adjoins it closely enough that the pharmacy sits at the end of the street and a supermarket lies within a 300-metre walk. Mornings can begin with coffee on a covered terrace, a swim in the private pool, or a walk into town for bread and groceries without needing the car. The five cafés and nine restaurants within a two-kilometre radius provide everyday options, and the municipal swimming pool and sports centre, both within 500 metres, add public sporting infrastructure to the private gym and sauna on the plot. The rhythm of the town follows the Spanish calendar, with 32 local public holidays per year marked by processions and festivities. Evenings tend to shift outdoors: the barbecue area, bar and jacuzzi are arranged for late dinners, and the two solariums face towards the coast, where the lights of Torrevieja are visible roughly eight kilometres away. The glazed winter lounge and log stove keep the property usable through the winter months, when daytime temperatures average around 12°C. This is a year-round residence profile rather than a purely seasonal one, the town does not empty in winter, and services continue to operate. The inland position at 95 metres altitude means slightly cooler evenings than the seafront in summer, and the mountain and country views are a consequence of that elevation. A car remains practical for beach days, golf rounds and airport runs, though it is not required for basic daily errands.
The immediate environment is urban and walkable. Within a two-kilometre radius the data records nine restaurants, five cafés, two pharmacies, one bank, one school and one dentist, a compact but complete daily-service layer. The municipal swimming pool (400 m), municipal sports centre and football stadium (both around 500 m) provide public recreation infrastructure, complementing the private facilities on the plot. For health matters beyond pharmacy level, the nearest hospital is 9.4 km away, in the direction of Torrevieja or Orihuela. Public transport exists, four lines serving nineteen stops in the municipality, which supports occasional car-free travel, though a vehicle remains the practical mode for coastal trips. The town's population of roughly 7,200 sustains year-round commerce, distinguishing it from seasonal coastal urbanisations where businesses close from November to March. EV owners will find charging points at 4.1 km, with denser fast-charging provision around La Zenia and Torrevieja at 7–8 km. The elevated position at 95 metres produces mountain and country views across the surrounding Vega Baja landscape.
The map shows the villa's position on the inland side of the coastal corridor: San Miguel de Salinas sits behind Orihuela Costa, with the beaches and La Zenia retail area to the southeast, the three golf courses to the south, and Torrevieja with its hospital and marinas to the northeast. Alicante-Elche airport appears to the north.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
San Miguel de Salinas occupies the southern edge of the province of Alicante, bordering Orihuela Costa and the Murcia region, within the Vega Baja del Segura comarca. It sits inland of the coastal strip, roughly 8 km from the sea and 9 km from Torrevieja, which positions it between the beaches of Orihuela Costa, the golf valleys of Villamartín and Campoamor, and the services of Torrevieja. The town functions as a quieter, more Spanish administrative centre surrounded by international residential urbanisations. Alicante city and its airport lie approximately 40–50 minutes north; the border of Murcia region and its capital are within similar range southwards.
Distances from the property, measured in straight lines: the nearest beaches, Playa Cala La Mosca, Cala Mosca and Cala de lo Ferri, lie 7.7 to 7.9 km away on the Orihuela Costa. Three golf courses sit within a 6 km radius: Club de Golf Villamartín (5.1 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (5.5 km) and Las Colinas Golf & Country Club (6.0 km). Two marinas, Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero and Real Club Náutico, are approximately 9 km away. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) lies roughly 40 km away, typically a 40–45 minute drive; Valencia Airport is approximately 170 km and Málaga around 359 km. Everyday services cluster much closer: supermarket at 297 m, pharmacy at 30 m. The regional hospital is 9.4 km distant. These figures position the villa as an inland property with coastal access by car rather than on foot.

The location records 3,848 sunshine hours per year, a figure comparable with the sunniest parts of southern Spain, and a mean annual temperature of 18.3°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures at or above 20°C, runs approximately four months; the private pool on the plot extends that window at the owner's discretion, since it is not dependent on sea temperature. Situated at 95 metres above sea level on the lower slopes above the Vega Baja, the property sits above the coastal plain, which moderates summer humidity slightly and produces cooler evenings than the seafront. The terrain around San Miguel de Salinas is characterised by low hills, salt-lagoon landscapes towards Torrevieja and agricultural land of the Segura valley, reflected in the listed mountain and country views. Rainfall concentrates in autumn, with the remainder of the year predominantly dry.

The nearest coastline consists of the coves of southern Orihuela Costa, Cala La Mosca, Cala Mosca and Cala de lo Ferri, small rocky-to-sandy coves 7.7 to 7.9 km from the villa, reachable by car in roughly 12–15 minutes. The larger beach complexes of La Zenia and Campoamor, with their Blue Flag stretches and the La Zenia Boulevard shopping centre, lie just beyond. Golf is the strongest recreational asset in the immediate area: three courses within 6 km, headlined by Las Colinas Golf & Country Club, a nationally ranked championship course set in a wooded valley. Sports provision combines the on-plot gym, pool and sauna with public facilities 400–500 metres away: the municipal swimming pool, a sports centre and a football stadium. Two marinas at around 9 km offer berths and waterfront dining. Walking terrain includes the viewpoints at Grand Vista Torrevieja (2.2 km) and Torrejieja (3.0 km), which look out over the pink salt lagoons of the Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja natural park.

Within San Miguel de Salinas itself, this villa competes in a narrow upper segment. Villa Idealis is listed from €759,000, Bellavista Villas from €875,000 and Mirador del Sol from €1,000,000. At €799,000 for 302 m², this property prices at roughly €2,645 per built square metre, the value calculation depends on plot size, finish level and the wellness infrastructure (gym, sauna, jacuzzi) that new-build competitors at similar prices may not include as standard. Buyers weighing inland San Miguel against the coast should note the structural trade-off: equivalent villas in Orihuela Costa or Torrevieja within walking distance of the sea typically command a premium, while inland positions buy more plot and built area per euro. The town's character also differs from the coastal strip, a Spanish municipality of about 7,200 inhabitants with year-round commerce, 32 local holidays and a working agricultural hinterland, compared with the more internationally oriented, seasonally variable urbanisations along the N-332 and AP-7 corridor. Accessibility is comparable across the local market: Alicante-Elche airport at roughly 40 km, the Corvera airport in Murcia within an hour, and the AP-7 motorway connecting the whole southern Costa Blanca. For golf-focused buyers, the position is strong, three courses within 6 km, including Las Colinas, which is among the higher-regarded courses in the Valencian Community. The realistic alternative profile for this buyer is a smaller new-build villa closer to the beach at the same price point; the choice is effectively between space, privacy and year-round town services inland versus coastal proximity and modern certification on the shore.
