Which area suits you

Last updated:

Torrevieja is not one market. idealista divides it into nine districts, and we group them into four broad areas to help you find your way. These are editorial groupings, not official boundaries. District asking prices run from €2,149 to €3,214 per m².

The centre and urban beaches. The town centre, the marinas and the beaches of El Cura and Los Locos, with the promenade, shops and restaurants within walking distance. €2,149 per m² in the Centro district, €2,374 in Playa del Cura and €2,886 in Playa de los Locos (August 2026).

La Mata and the north. The long beach of La Mata and the residential areas of Nueva Torrevieja and Aguas Nuevas behind it. €2,929 per m² in La Mata and €2,757 in Nueva Torrevieja–Aguas Nuevas.

The lagoon-side urbanisations. Residential urbanisations with bungalows and detached houses towards the lagoons, around La Siesta, El Salado and Torreta. €2,355 per m². Being near the lagoons does not mean a lagoon view.

The south towards Punta Prima. El Acequión and Los Náufragos near the port, the hillside urbanisations of Los Balcones and Los Altos del Edén, and the coastal developments of Punta Prima. €2,404, €2,911 and €3,214 per m² respectively. Part of the area marketed as Punta Prima lies in the neighbouring municipality of Orihuela.

In August 2026, seven of the nine district figures were below the Spanish national figure of €2,924 (La Mata and Punta Prima were above it), and all nine were more than 40% below Marbella’s.
