This penthouse in Los Balcones, on the southern Costa Blanca, offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 178 m² of living space, including a private terrace and a solarium with views over the Pink Lagoon and the communal pools. The property is part of the Nalia Resort, a residential complex with three swimming pools, jacuzzis, gardens, paddle tennis, mini golf and children's play areas. The asking price is fixed at €359,900, and the home is key-ready, sold unfurnished with private parking and a storage room included. Distances in this report are straight-line unless stated otherwise.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Los Balcones is a residential area near Torrevieja, at approximately 24 metres above sea level with a flat gradient towards the coast. The nearest beach, Cala de lo Ferri, lies 2.4 km away as the crow flies, with Playa Rocío del Mar and Playa Punta Prima slightly further. Several golf courses sit within a 4 to 6.5 km radius, and the area counts 15 public transport lines and 50 stops.
The home combines two bedrooms with two bathrooms, one en-suite, an open-plan living area, a fitted kitchen with Silestone worktop, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and fitted wardrobes. A private terrace and a separate solarium provide outdoor space on two levels, with pre-installation for an outdoor kitchen. Air conditioning, private parking and a storage room are included, sold unfurnished.
The penthouse is described as key-ready and never occupied. The wider building dates from 1970, while the unit itself is presented in new condition with modern finishes. Buyers can take occupancy immediately after completion of the purchase process; as with any resale or completed property, the stated status is indicative and should be verified during the purchase process.
The property offers two bedrooms, which limits its suitability for larger households. It is sold unfurnished, so furniture and appliances beyond the fitted kitchen must be arranged separately. Distances to beaches and facilities are 2.4 km or more, meaning daily life generally involves short drives. The listed building year of 1970 concerns the wider structure rather than the unit's current condition.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a second home on the Costa Blanca will find the two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout with en-suite practical for receiving guests, while the solarium and communal pools cover most holiday needs without leaving the resort. Buyers relocating permanently benefit from the key-ready status and the proximity of daily amenities: pharmacies, dentists and restaurants within 2 km, plus a public transport network of 15 lines that reduces car dependency for local trips. Investors may note the fixed price relative to new-build alternatives starting at €330,000 in the same area, where the difference partly reflects the finished condition, parking and storage included here. Golf players are within 4 km of Club de Golf Villamartín and 5.8 to 6.4 km of Real Club de Golf Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela. Buyers who want to walk to the beach should note that the nearest cove lies 2.4 km away as the crow flies, so the sea is a short drive rather than a stroll. Households needing three or more bedrooms will find the layout restrictive. Buyers who prefer a turnkey home with outdoor space on two levels, in a flat residential setting with a lagoon view, form the most logical profile. Those seeking an unfurnished, immediately usable base on the southern Costa Blanca, within reach of both Torrevieja's coastline and the Orihuela Costa golf belt, will find the combination here coherent.
The finishing level is documented in concrete terms. The kitchen is fully equipped with premium appliances and a Silestone worktop, a composite stone material valued for its durability and resistance to stains. The bathrooms have underfloor heating, which improves comfort in the cooler months when average temperatures drop to around 12 °C. LED lighting is installed throughout, and fitted wardrobes provide storage in the bedrooms. Climate control combines air conditioning with central heating, giving year-round temperature regulation rather than seasonal coverage alone. The property includes a private parking space and a separate storage room, which is a practical addition in a resort setting where such extras are often sold separately. The private terrace and solarium form the most distinctive finishing elements. The solarium, with wooden decking visible in the property imagery, includes a pre-installation for an outdoor kitchen, allowing a summer kitchen to be added without major structural work. The stairway to the solarium has a glass railing, consistent with the modern aesthetic of the building, which appears in imagery as a contemporary white apartment block. The interior imagery shows a modern bathroom with a walk-in shower and a second bathroom with wooden-style flooring. As the unit has never been occupied, the finishes are in new condition. Buyers should nonetheless arrange an independent technical inspection during the purchase process, as is standard practice for any completed property, to verify the documented installations and the condition of the wider 1970 structure in which the resort is situated.
The property has a fixed asking price of €359,900. For this amount, the buyer receives 178 m² of living space with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private terrace and solarium, a fitted kitchen with premium appliances and Silestone worktop, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, LED lighting, air conditioning, private parking and a storage room. Compared with comparable new-build projects in Los Balcones, which start from approximately €330,000, this price reflects the completed, key-ready status and the inclusion of parking and storage. The home is sold unfurnished; furniture is a separate cost. Availability is immediate in principle, subject to the standard purchase process.
Daily life in this penthouse revolves around a combination of indoor comfort and layered outdoor space. The open-plan living area opens onto the private terrace, while the solarium above offers wider views over the Pink Lagoon and the resort's communal pools. This two-level outdoor arrangement suits both morning use of the terrace and longer afternoons on the roof, where the pre-installation for an outdoor kitchen allows future expansion of the living space. The communal facilities form a second layer of daily use. Three pools, jacuzzis, gardens, paddle tennis, mini golf and children's areas sit directly within the resort, which reduces the dependence on external facilities for leisure and exercise. Outside the resort, the immediate area of Los Balcones provides 12 restaurants, 3 pharmacies, 3 dentists and a café within a 2 km radius. A swimming pool facility lies about 1 km away, and a fitness centre 2 km. The beaches of Cala de lo Ferri, Playa Rocío del Mar and Playa Punta Prima lie between 2.4 and 2.8 km straight-line from the property, meaning the sea is reachable within a short drive rather than on foot for most residents. The area sits at low elevation with a gradient to the beach of under 1 per cent, so walking and cycling are realistic options on flat terrain. Public transport with 15 lines and 50 stops gives the area a degree of connectivity unusual for residential zones of this type, although a car remains practical for beach visits, golf and shopping. The climate supports outdoor use for most of the year: average monthly temperatures range from 12 to 26 °C, with an annual average of 18.7 °C and a swimming season of roughly five months with sea temperatures of 20 °C or above. Evenings on the solarium and walks around the lagoon are therefore realistic for much of the year, not only in summer.
The surroundings of Los Balcones are defined by flat terrain, proximity to the lagoon and a spread of amenities within a short radius. Within 2 km, residents have access to 12 restaurants, 3 pharmacies, 3 dentists and a café, covering most daily needs. A fitness centre lies 2 km away and a swimming pool facility 1 km. The coastline begins at 2.4 km straight-line with Cala de lo Ferri, followed by Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.6 km and Playa Punta Prima at 2.8 km. These are small coves and urban beaches rather than a single long stretch, which suits visits by car or bicycle over flat roads. The Pink Lagoon itself, visible from the solarium, is part of the Torrevieja lagoon landscape and adds a distinctive natural backdrop. Marinas at Real Club Náutico (4.1 km) and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero (7.3 km) serve sailing and mooring needs. Public transport is comparatively strong: 15 lines and 50 stops serve the area, which supports car-free living for local trips, although regional travel generally remains easier by car. Electric vehicle owners have charging options at Ionity La Zenia (4.3 km), Iberdrola (6.0 km) and Eranovum (6.2 km). Larger cities are reachable for day trips: Elche with around 235,000 inhabitants lies 34 km away, Murcia 35 km and Cartagena 46 km, giving access to urban services, hospitals and cultural facilities beyond the immediate coast.
The map shows Los Balcones in relation to the Torrevieja lagoons and the Orihuela Costa. Note that all distances shown are straight-line; actual road distances are longer. The nearest beach lies 2.4 km to the east, with golf courses clustered to the south and Alicante-Elche Airport approximately 38 km to the north.
Approximate area · exact address shared on request
Los Balcones sits on the southern Costa Blanca, just inland of Torrevieja and the Orihuela Costa, roughly midway between the cities of Alicante and Murcia. Elche (34 km, approximately 235,000 inhabitants) and Murcia (35 km, approximately 463,000 inhabitants) are both within easy reach, with Cartagena (46 km) further south. This positioning gives the area a dual character: a quiet residential base in the lagoon landscape, with urban services, an international airport at 38 km and a dense strip of beaches, marinas and golf courses along the coast. Compared with the more celebrated Costa del Sol further west, this stretch of coast offers comparable sunshine at generally lower price levels, which is reflected in the regional median income of €15,750 per year.
Accessibility is one of the stronger points of this location. Alicante-Elche Airport lies approximately 38 km away in a straight line, with Valencia Airport at 171 km and Málaga-Costa del Sol at 363 km, making Alicante the clear primary gateway for international arrivals. Road distances are longer than straight-line figures, so actual travel times should be verified. By car, the beaches of the Orihuela Costa and Torrevieja coastline are within a short drive, with three beaches between 2.4 and 2.8 km away. Golf courses cluster within a 4 to 6.5 km band: Villamartín at 4.0 km, Campoamor at 5.8 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 6.4 km. The Zenia Boulevard shopping area, implied by the nearby Ionity charging station at La Zenia, is roughly 4 km away. Within the immediate 2 km zone, restaurants, pharmacies and dentists cover daily needs, and the 15-line public transport network with 50 stops provides an alternative to driving for local journeys. For residents without a car, this combination of local transport and nearby amenities makes routine life workable, while beach and golf trips remain easier with a vehicle.

The climate data indicate a typical low-lying southern Costa Blanca setting. Average monthly temperatures run from 12 °C in the coolest month to 26 °C in the warmest, with an annual average of 18.7 °C. This supports outdoor use of the terrace and solarium for most of the year, with underfloor bathroom heating and central heating covering the winter months. The swimming season lasts approximately five months, during which sea temperatures reach 20 °C or higher, roughly from late spring into early autumn. The elevation of 24 metres above sea level, combined with a gradient to the beach of only 0.9 per cent, means the area is essentially flat: walking and cycling to the coast involve no significant climbs, and the solarium sits only a few storeys above ground level, reachable by the internal staircase. The Pink Lagoon within view of the property forms part of the protected lagoon system around Torrevieja, a landscape feature that shapes the local microclimate and horizon. The viewpoint at Torrejieja, 4.7 km away, offers a wider perspective over the lagoon area and coastline for those who want to explore the natural setting further.

Beach life near Los Balcones is centred on a series of coves and urban beaches. Cala de lo Ferri at 2.4 km is the nearest, followed by Playa Rocío del Mar at 2.6 km and Playa Punta Prima at 2.8 km, all within a few minutes' drive on flat terrain. The area's beach information does not include Blue Flag listings, so water quality designations should be checked separately if this matters to the buyer. Recreation extends well beyond the sand. Three golf courses, Villamartín (4.0 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (5.8 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (6.4 km), place the property in the heart of the Orihuela Costa golf belt, one of the densest golf areas on this coast. Within the resort itself, three communal pools, jacuzzis, paddle tennis, mini golf and children's play areas provide daily recreation without leaving the complex. A separate swimming pool facility lies 1 km away and a fitness centre 2 km. For sailing and mooring, Real Club Náutico is 4.1 km away and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero 7.3 km. The View Torrejieja viewpoint at 4.7 km rounds off the recreational offer with walking and sightseeing options around the lagoon landscape.

Within Los Balcones itself, this penthouse competes directly with two new-build phases: Nature Views Phase 4 and Balcones de la Laguna Phase VII, both advertised from €330,000. At first sight, those starting prices sit about €30,000 below the fixed €359,900 asked here, but the comparison requires nuance. A 'from' price typically applies to the smallest unit type on the least favourable orientation, whereas this property is a completed penthouse of 178 m² including terrace and solarium, delivered with a fitted kitchen with Silestone worktop and premium appliances, private parking and a storage room. When configured to a comparable specification, the new-build alternatives will usually close part of that gap, while this unit offers immediate availability and no construction-phase risk. Further afield, Oceanic Apartments in Rojales start from €475,000, which frames the upper end of the local market and positions Los Balcones on the more accessible side of the southern Costa Blanca price spectrum. Locationally, the three nearby projects share the same fundamentals: flat terrain, the lagoon landscape, beaches within 2 to 3 km and the Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas golf courses within a short drive. What distinguishes this specific property within that field is the two-level outdoor space with lagoon views and the completed, never-occupied condition. Buyers comparing options should weigh the certainty of a finished product against the customisation possibilities of an off-plan phase, and verify the actual asking prices of equivalently sized penthouse units in the competing phases rather than relying on published starting prices.
