A furnished two-bedroom apartment of 89 m² is for sale in Playa del Cura, a coastal district of Torrevieja on the southern Costa Blanca. The property sits approximately 150 metres from Playa del Cura beach and is offered key-ready with a fixed asking price of €160,000. The building dates from 1970, and the apartment was renovated around three years ago. The area combines direct beach access with an extensive range of daily amenities, including numerous restaurants, pharmacies and banks within a two-kilometre radius.
Within the immediate Torrevieja market, this apartment competes directly with new-build stock at similar entry prices. Palangre Beach, also in Torrevieja, offers new apartments from €160,000, and Edificio Sun & Center from €169,000, both key-ready. Further inland, Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in Urbanización El Raso starts at €227,000, positioned at a distinctly higher level and oriented towards buyers prioritising modern communal facilities such as pools and landscaped grounds. The practical trade-off is clear: at the same budget, a buyer can choose between a renovated 1970s apartment roughly 150 metres from an established beach with sea views, or a new-build unit of likely smaller size or less central location without the direct seafront position. The second factor is the wider region. Torrevieja's southern Costa Blanca market is priced below both the Marbella-centred Costa del Sol and the northern Costa Blanca around Alicante city, while offering comparable sunshine hours and a five-month swimming season. The province's median income of €15,750 per year indicates that local purchasing power relies partly on tourism and international buyers, which supports rental demand but also means seasonal fluctuation in the neighbourhood's busyness. Infrastructure works on the Curva de Palangre promenade point to continued public investment in this specific stretch of coast, a relevant factor for the longer-term positioning of the address.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The apartment lies in the second line from the sea in Playa del Cura, roughly 150 metres from the beach of the same name. Distances to surrounding cities are measured as the crow flies: Torrevieja centre is directly adjacent, Alicante lies about 44 km away and Murcia about 40 km. Alicante-Elche Airport is approximately 35 km distant, which translates to a drive of well under an hour.
The layout provides two bedrooms, one bathroom, a functional kitchen with dining area and a private terrace with sea views. An elevator serves the building, and the apartment includes fitted wardrobes, air conditioning and full furnishing with household appliances. Utility connections for electricity, drinking water and telephone are in place. This configuration suits couples, small families or buyers seeking a low-maintenance second residence.
This is not a new-build project. The building was completed in 1970, and the apartment was renovated approximately three years ago. It is sold key-ready and fully furnished, meaning the buyer can move in without additional setup work. Any further modernisation, such as updating the single bathroom or kitchen units, would be at the buyer's own initiative and expense.
The property offers one bathroom only and has no private parking space, storage room or communal pool mentioned in the available data. The building is over fifty years old, which carries implications for maintenance obligations within the community. No garden or private outdoor space exists beyond the terrace, and the 89 m² living area limits space for larger households.
This property fits several recognisable situations. A couple seeking a compact coastal home within walking distance of the beach will find the layout and location directly usable, without renovation work or furnishing costs. Buyers looking for a second residence that can be locked up and left between visits benefit from the furnished, turnkey condition and the lift-served building. Investors considering rental use have a relevant data point in the location: 150 metres from an established beach, in an area with year-round demand for accommodation and more than a hundred restaurants within two kilometres signalling visitor volume. Retirees or part-year residents who prefer not to depend on a car will find pharmacies, banks, cafés and the beach within walking distance, and public transport is available with 13 lines and 50 stops in the area. The property is less suitable for buyers who want multiple bathrooms, private parking, a communal pool or generous space for a family of four or more. The 1970 construction date also means buyers prioritising modern energy performance or new-build warranties should look elsewhere or budget for upgrades.
The apartment was renovated approximately three years ago and is described as being in good condition. Interior photographs show a modern kitchen with granite worktops, a kitchen-dining area with table and appliances, a bathroom with shower and washing machine connection, a spacious master bedroom with a large window, and a hallway with storage space. The property is sold fully furnished with all necessary household appliances, which reduces initial setup costs for the buyer. Technical features include air conditioning, fitted wardrobes, a private terrace and connections for electricity, drinking water and telephone. The building provides elevator access. As a 1970 building that has been partially renovated, buyers should expect a mix of updated and original elements in the construction. Independent structural and technical surveys are advisable before purchase, particularly regarding insulation, plumbing and electrical installations, as these are not documented in the available data. No information is available about the building's communal areas beyond the lift, nor about community fees or planned maintenance works, and these should be verified during the purchase process.
The apartment is offered as an existing home with a fixed asking price of €160,000. This is not a from-price: the amount applies to this specific property of 89 m² with two bedrooms and one bathroom, delivered fully furnished and renovated. For context, comparable new-build apartments in Torrevieja start at €160,000 (Palangre Beach) and €169,000 (Edificio Sun & Center), while projects in Urbanización El Rasa begin at €227,000. The price per square metre of roughly €1,800 positions this property in the lower segment for the immediate coastal area. Availability is immediate, as the property is key-ready.
Daily life around this apartment is organised around the seafront. Playa del Cura beach begins roughly 150 metres from the front door, so morning walks along the shore, an afternoon swim or an evening drink on a terrace are all a matter of a few minutes on foot. The immediate area is dense with amenities: within two kilometres there are 134 restaurants, 41 cafés, 22 pharmacies and 23 banks, alongside two schools and 23 dental practices. Practically speaking, a car is not required for daily errands, dining or beach visits, although a vehicle is useful for exploring the wider region or reaching the golf courses further inland. The neighbourhood functions year-round rather than purely seasonally, given the permanent population of Torrevieja and the continuous flow of services. The apartment itself, at 89 m² with two bedrooms and a terrace facing the sea, supports a routine built around outdoor living: breakfast on the terrace, errands on foot, and the promenade as an extension of the living space. Buyers should note that the area around the nearby Curva de Palangre stretch of coast is subject to ongoing works for a new promenade, which may cause temporary construction activity in the vicinity.
The immediate surroundings are those of a consolidated beach district. Playa del Cura beach lies at the doorstep, with Platja del Cura 300 metres away and the small cove Cala del Palangre at 600 metres, both measured in a straight line. The Real Club Náutico marina is 1.2 km away. For sports, the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina is 2.1 km away and the football club CF Torrevieja 2.4 km; a commercial gym lies 3.9 km away. Public swimming pools are available at Hotel Fontana (0.9 km) and Residencial Parque de las Naciones (2.1 km). The density of daily amenities is high: with 134 restaurants, 41 cafés, 22 pharmacies and 23 banks within two kilometres, almost every routine need is covered on foot. Public transport comprises 13 lines with 50 stops, connecting the district to the rest of Torrevieja and neighbouring towns. The area is busiest during the summer months, when beach tourism peaks, and quieter outside the season while retaining year-round services.
The map shows the apartment's position in the second beach line of Playa del Cura, a few dozen metres from the sand. Note the concentration of amenities within the two-kilometre ring and the golf courses clustered inland to the southwest. All distances shown are straight-line; actual road routes are somewhat longer.

Playa del Cura sits within Torrevieja, a city of significant size on the southern Costa Blanca, positioned between the provincial capitals of Alicante (44 km) and Murcia (40 km), both straight-line distances. The region combines established beach tourism with a substantial permanent population. Elche, with around 235,000 inhabitants, lies 32 km away. The southern Costa Blanca is generally more affordable than the Costa del Sol further west, and Torrevieja functions as its principal coastal town, with full healthcare, retail and administrative infrastructure. For international buyers, the area is well connected through Alicante-Elche Airport at approximately 35 km.
The apartment's accessibility profile is strongly coastal. Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) lies approximately 35 km away in a straight line, realistically a drive of around 40 minutes by car; Valencia Airport is 169 km distant and Málaga approximately 368 km. Road access runs via the regional network connecting Torrevieja with Alicante (44 km straight-line) and Murcia (40 km straight-line). For electric vehicle owners, fast-charging stations are available at Ionity La Zenia (8.2 km) and Iberdrola Oasis Center (8.3 km), both straight-line figures. Beach access requires no transport at all: Playa del Cura is roughly 150 metres away on foot. Golf courses are concentrated slightly inland: Villamartín at 9.0 km, Campoamor at 10.9 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 11.3 km, each a 15-20 minute drive. Within Torrevieja itself, the 13 bus lines and 50 stops provide an alternative to driving for local journeys.

The climate is typical of the southern Costa Blanca. The average annual temperature is 18.8°C, with monthly averages ranging from 12°C in winter to 26°C in summer. The swimming season extends to five months per year, during which sea temperatures reach at least 20°C, roughly from late May to early October. The elevation is 10 metres above sea level, meaning the terrain is essentially flat: no hills or stairs complicate walks to the beach or shops. Rainfall is low by European standards, and sunshine hours are high, supporting year-round terrace use and outdoor living. The flat coastal position also means the area is fully exposed to sea breezes, which moderate summer heat but can make winter days feel cooler than the thermometer suggests. For residents, the practical effect is a lifestyle that can shift outdoors for most of the year, with the apartment's sea-facing terrace usable from early spring to late autumn.

Beach recreation is the defining feature of this location. Playa del Cura begins essentially at the property's doorstep, with Platja del Cura 300 metres and the sheltered Cala del Palangre 600 metres away in a direct line. The Real Club Náutico marina at 1.2 km offers mooring-related facilities and a pleasant walking destination along the coast. Torre del Moro, a historic watchtower viewpoint, lies 3.1 km away, and the La Pinada viewpoint at 4.8 km. Sports facilities within easy reach include the Palacio de Deportes Infanta Cristina (2.1 km), CF Torrevieja (2.4 km) and a commercial fitness centre (3.9 km). Golfers have three courses within a short drive: Villamartín (9.0 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (10.9 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (11.3 km), all straight-line distances. The planned Curva de Palangre promenade works indicate continued public investment in the immediate coastline, which may extend the walkable seafront in coming years.
