Where to look for an apartment near the beach in Guardamar del Segura

Start with three areas. For everyday errands on foot, look between the town centre and Reina Sofía Park. For direct access to the promenade, start with the buildings by Platja Centre. Add La Roqueta to compare the beachfront with the streets farther south. Platja Centre borders the built-up town and La Roqueta lies to its south. Guardamar’s beaches

Two walks before your first viewing

Town centre to the sea. Start at the Town Hall square, walk to Reina Sofía Park and continue to the promenade by Platja Centre. On your way back, stop at a supermarket you could use regularly. For a flat in town, walk to the beach from the building entrance and time it. Guardamar virtual tour
Promenade to La Roqueta. Start at Platja Centre, follow the coast towards La Roqueta, then turn towards the building you are viewing. Find the beach entrance you would use and check how easy the return would be with a beach bag or pushchair. Guardamar promenade

What to check in the building

Bedroom. Open the window and listen to the street. If there are café terraces below, come back in the evening.
Terrace. Look for shade and shelter from the wind. Near the sea, check window frames, shutters and railings for signs of corrosion.
Access. Walk all the way from the street to the flat, including the entrance steps and the lift. If there is a garage, try the manoeuvre with your car or one of a similar size.
Costs. Ask for the community fee, the latest meeting minutes and details of approved works. For a ground-floor flat or underground garage, ask about previous flooding and what was done about it.

After each viewing, note three figures: actual walking time from the entrance to your beach access, walking time to your supermarket and the annual community fee. Use the same checks for each flat so you can compare addresses across town. Guardamar interactive map
