LOS BALCONES LIFESTYLE
The residential suburb of Los Balcones is made up of a number of developments, including apartment blocks, townhouses, and private villas. Los Balcones still retains its traditional Spanish charm and this is evident in the lack of tall buildings, busy highways, and crowded commercial centers, as well as the presence of many local shops, Spanish restaurants, and tapas bars.
Though situated away from the busy cities and crowded areas, Los Balcones has a relatively varied array of facilities and attractions. This provides a convenient way of life for the town’s residents and visitors. Because Los Balcones is near to the golf courses of Villamartin, the bars and leisure facilities of Torrevieja, and the beaches of Punta Prima and Orihuela Costa, the town’s convenient and central location is ideal for a variety of people—whether they prefer an active or laidback lifestyle or a fusion of both.

Los Balcones is characterized as a quiet and peaceful residential urbanization. The town has a population of only 4,986 as of 2018 according to the Instituto Nacional de Estadística. Shops, restaurants, supermarkets, and the shopping center can be found in close proximity to each other, as well as to the many residential areas located in the town. Because of this, residents of Los Balcones, as well as guests staying in apartment rentals don’t have to go a long way in search of the nearest restaurant, supermarket, or shop. These facilities are usually only a quick drive away from the residential areas, and taxi cabs are available at all times of the day. Most can even be reached by a few minutes’ stroll, as many residential developments—especially apartment blocks—are conveniently located near various facilities such as restaurants, tapas bars, and supermarkets.
Despite being a residential urbanization, nature is abundant in Los Balcones. This can be observed in the town’s tree-lined streets and its natural park—in addition to the large saltwater lake of Torrevieja beside the town that gives it fresh and healthy air.
Parque Reina de la Sal
Often referred to as Parque Los Balcones, this park provides a picturesque setting to get close to nature. Besides the rows of shady trees and abundant plant life, the park has a picnic area, table tennis, petanque and basketball courts, and a children’s playground. Dogs are welcome in the park as well, so visitors can stroll around or play with their pooches.
For those who prefer an active lifestyle, Los Balcones is just a 5-minute drive away from the Club de Tenis in Torrevieja, a popular sports club that features multiple tennis courts, Ping-Pong tables, two paddle courts, a gym, swimming pool, and spa and sauna.
