This key-ready apartment is situated in a gated residential complex in Punta Prima, on the southern Costa Blanca in the province of Alicante. The property offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 113 m² of living space on the third floor, with a covered terrace facing east overlooking the landscaped grounds and the sea. Completed in 2018, the building includes underground parking, a lift and communal swimming pools. The asking price is fixed at €349,900, and the home is sold fully furnished with household appliances included, together with a parking space and storage room.
Within its immediate competitive set, this apartment occupies the premium segment. The comparable projects in the wider area, Palangre Beach in Torrevieja (from €160,000), Sun & Center in Torrevieja (from €169,000) and Oasis Laguna 2 Phase II in El Raso (from €227,000), are all new-build or recent developments with price lists starting well below this property's fixed €349,900 asking price. The comparison requires context. First, those figures are starting prices for the smallest units in each development; like-for-like three-bedroom, sea-view apartments of 113 m² would price considerably higher on those lists. Second, this property's price includes a full furniture package, household appliances, an underground parking space and a storage room, items that frequently add €20,000 to €40,000 in separate purchases in new-build transactions. Third, location differentiates the properties: Punta Prima sits directly on the coast with three beaches within about 1 km, whereas El Raso lies inland at La Finca golf, several kilometres from the sea. The Torrevieja projects offer urban convenience but generally not the combination of sea views, a gated complex with 24-hour security and a 2018 build in one package. Structurally, the Costa Blanca market south of Alicante has priced this corridor between the cheaper inland Orihuela Costa urbanisations and the more expensive front-line developments at Playa Flamenca, Cabo Roig and Campoamor. This apartment sits near the top of that local band, justified by orientation, view and specification rather than by novelty. Buyers comparing options should weigh the trade-off directly: a new-build warranty and developer payment terms against a completed, furnished home available immediately with proven running costs. Median provincial income of €15,750 per year also frames the local rental market, year-round letting here caters primarily to international residents and seasonal tourists rather than domestic wage levels, which concentrates demand in the warmer half of the year.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
Punta Prima sits at the northern edge of the Orihuela Costa strip, roughly 40 km as the crow flies from Alicante-Elche airport. The nearest beach, Playa Punta Prima, lies 0.8 km away, with two further coves within about 1.1 km. The area functions as a year-round urbanisation with shops, restaurants and pharmacies within walking distance, supported by 13 public transport lines and 50 stops nearby.
The apartment is designed for practical coastal living: three bedrooms and two bathrooms accommodate a family or visiting guests, while the open-plan kitchen and living room open onto a covered east-facing terrace with sea views. Communal pools, a gated perimeter with 24-hour security, and level access to the beach, the route has a gradient of just 2.5%, cover the main functional needs of daily residence.
This is not an off-plan development. The building was completed in 2018 and the apartment is key-ready, meaning it can be occupied directly after purchase. Construction dating from 2018 places it within the current building standards for the area, including an installed ventilation system, air conditioning throughout, double glazing and underfloor heating in the bathrooms. Delivery dates for existing homes are not applicable; completion is factual rather than indicative.
The property does not include a private pool or private garden; both are communal. There is no private outdoor plot, and the terrace is covered rather than open. The complex is an urbanisation setting rather than a rural or secluded one, so surroundings include other residences and seasonal visitor activity. No information is available regarding a private garage for a second car beyond the single included underground space and storage room.
This apartment fits a buyer in one of several recognisable situations. A household relocating permanently to the Costa Blanca benefits from the three bedrooms, the level walking access to shops and medical services, and the year-round climate control, the regional average temperature of 18.9°C supports full-time occupation, but summers make air conditioning in every room a practical necessity rather than a luxury. Buyers seeking a second home with letting potential will note the key-ready condition, the included furniture and the strong seasonal rental demand within 1 km of three beaches. The 24-hour security and gated access reduce the concerns that accompany long absences. Retired buyers or those with reduced mobility are explicitly catered for: the building has a lift and lists accessibility for people with reduced mobility, and the flat 2.5% gradient to the beach removes a barrier common in many coastal towns built on hillsides. Golfers represent a further group, three courses, Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Ramblas de Orihuela, lie between 3.8 and 5.8 km away as the crow flies. The property is less suited to buyers wanting a private pool, a private garden or a detached villa format; those requirements point towards other segments of the market. Similarly, anyone seeking tranquillity far from tourist flows should weigh the urbanisation setting: summer months bring visitor traffic to the coast here, as they do across the southern Costa Blanca.
The build dates from 2018, which places it within the contemporary construction era for this stretch of coast. Interior finishing is modern throughout, with marble flooring listed as the standard floor covering. Windows are double glazed, contributing to both thermal comfort and noise reduction relative to older single-glazed stock in the area. Climate control is a clear strength: air conditioning is installed in all rooms, supported by a fresh air ventilation system, and the bathrooms add underfloor heating, a combination that covers the full temperature range from August heat to January mornings, when average monthly temperatures drop to around 12°C. Storage is handled internally through fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms, and externally through the included storage room in the basement. The kitchen is fully fitted and the property comes complete with furniture and household appliances, so the effective move-in cost is limited to connection of utilities. Access and parking are resolved structurally: the building has a lift, and the sale includes one underground parking space. Communal areas are described as landscaped, with communal swimming pools available to residents. Security provisions operate on three levels, a gated complex perimeter, an entry phone system and 24-hour security, which is a fuller package than the entry-phone-only standard found in many coastal buildings. The overall condition is listed as excellent, consistent with a seven-year-old property that appears to have been maintained rather than renovated. No information is available on the building's energy performance certificate or on structural warranties; these are standard due-diligence items for any purchase and can be verified through the documentation phase.
The apartment has a fixed asking price of €349,900, this is an existing home, not a new-build price list. That figure translates to roughly €3,100 per m² of living area for 113 m², and it includes the full furniture package, household appliances, one underground parking space and a storage room, which removes several post-purchase costs that buyers of bare properties typically face. Compared with new-build apartments in the wider area, which start from around €160,000 in Torrevieja and €227,000 in El Raso, this property sits at the upper end of the local range, a position explained by its size, sea views, 2018 construction and included extras. Availability is immediate, subject to the seller's position at the time of enquiry.
Daily life in this apartment revolves around a compact, walkable routine. The east orientation means morning light on the terrace, with the open-plan kitchen and living room acting as the central space of the home during the rest of the day. The three bedrooms are distributed around this core, each with built-in wardrobes, and the two bathrooms, one with underfloor heating, reduce morning congestion for a household of four or for guests staying over. The complex itself forms part of the daily rhythm: communal pools provide the swimming option when the sea is less appealing, and the gated entrance with 24-hour security and entry phone simplifies absences, whether for a weekend or an entire winter. Outside the gates, the immediate area covers essentials on foot. Within 2 km there are 29 restaurants, 7 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 3 banks and 3 dentists, which means grocery runs, coffee and medical errands rarely require a car. The beach at Punta Prima is 0.8 km away as the crow flies, reachable on a flat route, with Cala La Mosca and Cala Piteras slightly further along the coast. Seasonally, the area behaves like most of the southern Costa Blanca: lively in July and August, noticeably quieter from November to March, when the permanent residential population dominates. The apartment's marble floors, air conditioning in every room and ventilation system make it usable year-round rather than as a summer-only property, which matters for anyone considering permanent residence or full-year letting. An underground parking space and storage room are included, covering the practical side of car ownership in a coastal urbanisation.
The immediate environment combines residential density with genuine walkability. Within a 2 km radius, the data lists 29 restaurants, 7 cafés, 3 pharmacies, 3 banks and 3 dentists, a spread that covers daily needs without leaving the neighbourhood. Public transport is unusually well developed for an urbanisation of this size: 13 lines serve the area through 50 stops, connecting Punta Prima to Torrevieja, Orihela Costa and the wider coastal corridor. For car owners, the AP-7 and N-332 corridors lie just inland, and the included underground parking removes the summer parking pressure that affects streets near the beaches. Three beaches fall within roughly 1 km: Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km, Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km, all measured as the crow flies, with actual walking distances somewhat longer. The route to the main beach is flat at a 2.5% gradient. Sports facilities include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.6 km, and for electric vehicle owners there are three charging options between 2.8 and 4.7 km, Ionity La Zenia, Iberdrola and Eranovum. Two marinas, Real Club Náutico at 4.5 km and Puerto Deportivo Miguel Caballero at 5.8 km, serve the sailing and boating side of coastal life. Larger urban centres, Torrevieja, Orihuela city and the shopping at La Zenia Boulevard along the way, extend the range of services beyond the immediate neighbourhood.
The map shows the apartment's position in Punta Prima relative to the three nearby beaches, the coastal road and the golf courses to the south-west. Alicante-Elche airport lies approximately 40 km to the north-east as the crow flies. Marked distances are straight-line; road distances are somewhat longer.

Punta Prima occupies the northern gateway to the Orihuela Costa, the municipality bordering Torrevieja to the south of Alicante province. Within the regional hierarchy, it sits closer to Torrevieja's urban services than to any other city, with Elche (36 km), Murcia (37 km) and Cartagena (45 km) forming the triangle of larger centres, all straight-line. Along the Costa Blanca itself, the position is southern, roughly 40 km from Alicante airport and well over 300 km from Málaga, which places it firmly in the Costa Blanca rather than Costa del Sol market. The location combines coastal urbanisation characteristics with unusually good transport links for its size, distinguishing it from more isolated developments further inland or along the Murcian coast.
Distances in this section are straight-line, as the crow flies. The nearest beach, Playa Punta Prima, lies 0.8 km away, with two further coves within about 1.1 km. Alicante-Elche airport (ALC), the principal gateway for the area, is roughly 40 km away; Valencia airport sits about 173 km to the north and Málaga-Costa del Sol about 363 km to the south-west, both realistic but longer options. Regional cities are within an hour's drive: Elche, with around 234,765 inhabitants, is 36 km away, Murcia, with roughly 462,979 inhabitants, is 37 km away, and Cartagena, home to about 218,943 people, is 45 km away. Golf courses cluster nearby: Villamartín at 3.8 km, Real Club de Golf Campoamor at 5.6 km and Las Ramblas de Orihuela at 5.8 km. For daily life, the 13 bus lines and 50 stops in the area mean a car is convenient but not strictly essential, a relevant point for buyers who prefer not to drive in Spain or who plan extended stays without a vehicle. The building's underground parking and lift make car-based routines straightforward when driving is preferred.

The climate data points to a typical semi-arid Mediterranean pattern. Average monthly temperatures range from 12°C in the coolest months to 26°C in summer, with an annual mean of 18.9°C, a figure that supports year-round living rather than seasonal use only. The swimming season, defined by sea temperatures of 20°C or above, lasts about five months, roughly May or June through September or October. The elevation of 31 metres above sea level keeps the terrain essentially flat; the 2.5% gradient to the beach confirms that no significant climbing is involved in daily routines, in contrast to hillside towns further along the coast. Rainfall concentrates in autumn, with the remainder of the year predominantly dry, which is consistent with the high sunshine hours characteristic of the southern Costa Blanca. For the apartment itself, the climate translates practically: the east-facing terrace catches morning rather than afternoon sun, reducing summer heat build-up, while air conditioning and double glazing manage the peak months and the ventilation system maintains air quality in a sealed, insulated envelope.

The beach offer within walking distance is the defining recreational feature: Playa Punta Prima at 0.8 km, Cala La Mosca at 1.0 km and Cala Piteras at 1.1 km, all straight-line distances. This variety matters in practice, a main sandy beach for everyday use and quieter coves for swimming or snorkelling, without needing to drive or park in summer. Beyond swimming, the seafront promenade connecting Punta Prima towards Playa Flamenca and La Zenia supports walking and cycling routines. Golf is the second recreational pillar: three 18-hole courses, Villamartín (3.8 km), Real Club de Golf Campoamor (5.6 km) and Las Ramblas de Orihuela (5.8 km), sit within a short drive, making the location workable for regular play across different courses. Fitness facilities include Snatch Fitness Center at 1.6 km, and a communal swimming pool within the complex itself provides an alternative to the sea outside the warm months. For days on the water, two marinas at 4.5 km and 5.8 km offer mooring and nautical services. Families with children have a pool facility listed at 2.8 km. The overall recreational profile is coastal and active rather than rural or mountainous, the natural environment here is the sea and the golf-oriented hinterland.
