Why Are More and More People Choosing Los Balcones?

Buying a home isn't just about choosing a property.

It's also about choosing the place where you'll probably spend an important part of your life.

The neighbourhood where you'll go for a walk.

Where you'll do your shopping.

Where you'll enjoy a coffee on a Sunday morning.

Where your children may grow up or where you'll enjoy your retirement.

That's exactly why Los Balcones has become one of Torrevieja's most desirable residential areas.

Located in the southern part of the town, next to the famous Pink Lagoon, it offers a rare combination of residential tranquillity, natural surroundings, excellent transport connections, and every essential service needed for comfortable year-round living.

Its location is also particularly strategic, positioned between two of the most important commercial areas in southern Alicante: the Habaneras–Carrefour shopping district and Zenia Boulevard, allowing you to reach both in just a few minutes.

A Setting Designed for Everyday Living

One of the first things you'll notice about Los Balcones is its sense of tranquillity.

Unlike some of Torrevieja's more urbanised areas, Los Balcones is characterised by detached homes, modern residential developments, wide streets, and a lower building density.

All of this creates a feeling of space that many buyers are looking for when choosing either a permanent residence or a second home.

Yet this peaceful atmosphere doesn't mean being isolated.

Quite the opposite.

Within just a few minutes, you can reach Torrevieja town centre, Orihuela Costa, beautiful beaches, and many of the area's main services and amenities.

This balance between peace and convenience is one of the key reasons why demand for Los Balcones continues to grow.

Living Next to the Pink Lagoon

One of Los Balcones' greatest privileges is its proximity to Torrevieja's famous Pink Lagoon, one of the Costa Blanca's most iconic natural landmarks.

Beyond its spectacular pink colour at certain times of the year, the lagoon forms part of the La Mata and Torrevieja Lagoons Natural Park, a protected natural area highly valued for walking, outdoor sports, and enjoying nature.

For many residents, this is an added benefit that's difficult to put a price on.

It's not simply about having a natural space nearby.

It's about being able to enjoy a unique landscape every day without leaving the city.

The sunsets, walking trails, and feeling of open space make this one of the most enjoyable areas for anyone seeking a better quality of life.

All the Services You Need Without Giving Up Peace and Quiet

One of the things that surprises first-time visitors to Los Balcones the most is just how close everything is.

Some of the area's key amenities include:

• Torrevieja University Hospital

• Mercadona, Consum, Aldi, and Lidl supermarkets

• Pharmacies

• Schools and secondary schools

• Restaurants and cafés

• Sports facilities

• Habaneras Shopping Centre

• Carrefour

• Zenia Boulevard

• Immediate access to the CV-95

• Fast connections to the N-332 and AP-7 motorways

• The beaches of Torrevieja and Orihuela Costa, just a short drive away

This convenient location significantly reduces everyday travel times—something that more and more buyers value when looking for a home to enjoy all year round.

An Increasingly Diverse Community

Although Los Balcones has traditionally been known as a highly desirable residential area among international buyers, its community has become far more diverse in recent years.

Families, remote workers, retirees, young couples, and second-home owners now all choose to live here and enjoy extended stays throughout the year.

Torrevieja is now home to more than 110,000 registered residents and remains one of Spain's most internationally diverse cities, a characteristic that is clearly reflected in communities such as Los Balcones.

This blend of nationalities and lifestyles has encouraged the continued growth of restaurants, leisure facilities, and services designed for year-round residents rather than seasonal tourism alone.

An Area That Continues to Evolve

One of the most common questions buyers ask is whether an area still has long-term potential.

While nobody can predict exactly how the property market will evolve, it is possible to assess whether an area continues to attract investment, improve its infrastructure, and increase its appeal to both residents and buyers.

In this respect, Los Balcones continues to move forward.

Torrevieja City Council has carried out several improvement projects throughout the neighbourhood, including the renovation of Parque Reina de la Sal, one of the area's most important green spaces, as well as the refurbishment of its outdoor sports facilities to improve accessibility, safety, and lighting.

In addition, the town's new public transport network includes a route connecting Los Balcones with Torrevieja University Hospital and other key locations across the municipality, making it even easier for residents to get around throughout the year.

Together, these improvements help ensure that Los Balcones remains a modern, well-maintained, and increasingly attractive place to live.

How Has the Property Market Evolved?

Property prices are often one of the clearest indicators of how desirable an area has become.

According to Idealista, the current average asking price in Los Balcones – Los Altos del Edén is approximately €3,003/m².

Meanwhile, Fotocasa estimates the average asking price in the same area at around €3,428/m².

The difference between these figures is perfectly normal, as each property portal uses its own methodology and database of listed homes.

For comparison, the average asking price across the municipality of Torrevieja is currently around €2,558/m², highlighting Los Balcones as one of the city's most sought-after residential areas.

Ten years ago, the average asking price for a home in Torrevieja stood at approximately €1,169/m². Today, that figure has risen to around €2,558/m², representing an increase of roughly 119% over the past decade. Although this statistic refers to Torrevieja as a whole rather than Los Balcones specifically, it clearly illustrates the remarkable growth of the local property market in recent years.

Will Los Balcones Continue to Be an Attractive Area in the Future?

While nobody can guarantee future property appreciation, certain factors have historically helped maintain the long-term appeal of a location.

Los Balcones offers many of them:

• A well-established residential environment.

• Close proximity to Torrevieja University Hospital.

• Direct access to the famous Pink Lagoon.

• Excellent transport links via the CV-95, N-332, and AP-7.

• A strategic location between the Habaneras–Carrefour commercial area and Zenia Boulevard.

• A growing selection of modern new-build developments.

• Ongoing investment in parks and public spaces.

• Strong demand from both Spanish and international buyers.

Rather than asking "How much could property prices rise?", perhaps the better question is:

Will this still be a place where people want to live in ten or fifteen years?

Today, all the signs suggest that Los Balcones remains one of the most desirable residential locations in southern Torrevieja.

📊 What Do the Facts Tell Us?

According to Torrevieja City Council, Los Balcones is a fully established residential area that continues to benefit from public investment aimed at improving the quality of life for its residents.

Meanwhile, Torrevieja has now surpassed 110,000 registered residents, making it one of the fastest-growing and most internationally diverse cities in the Valencian Community.

This steady population growth helps support ongoing housing demand and contributes to the strength of the local property market.

💡 SalyMar's Advice

When you buy a home, you're not just purchasing square metres.

You're choosing the streets you'll walk along, where you'll do your shopping, how long it will take to reach the hospital, your children's school or the beach, and the environment where you'll spend your free time.

That's why, before making your decision, spend a morning exploring the neighbourhood as if you already lived there.

Sometimes the best decision isn't made when you step inside a property.

It's made when you walk through the community surrounding it.

🌿 Final Thoughts

Homes change.

They can be renovated.

Extended.

Modernised.

But the place where you choose to build your life remains the same.

Perhaps that's why the best property purchases aren't always the most spectacular.

They're the ones that, years later, still feel like the right decision.

And Los Balcones brings together many of the qualities that transform a house into a true home.
