Why Buying a Holiday Apartment in Torrevieja Still Makes Sense in 2025

Torrevieja has long been a go-to for foreign buyers — and even in 2025, it still delivers. This coastal city is known for its beautiful promenades, salt lakes, vibrant culture and unbeatable apartment prices. For Irish buyers, it offers the perfect mix of holiday ºvibes and long-term investment potential.

1. Affordable Beachside Living

In many parts of Europe, seaside property is out of reach. But in Torrevieja, you can still find one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments within walking distance to the beach from just €95,000.
Modernised options with sea views, pools and lifts range between €120,000–€160,000 — far less than similar properties in Dublin, Galway or Cork.

2. Year-Round Rental Demand

Thanks to its lively all-season atmosphere and international community, Torrevieja is one of the few towns where short-term holiday rentals and long-term lets both work well.
Investors can expect consistent interest from tourists and snowbirds, especially in centrally located properties near Playa del Cura or Playa de Los Locos.

3. A Town That Has It All

Torrevieja is not just for tourists. It offers great public transport, hospitals, international schools, Irish pubs, markets, and entertainment.
Whether you're coming for 3 weeks or planning a winter escape, everything is within walking distance.

Why Irish Buyers Still Choose Torrevieja

• Frequent flights to Alicante year-round

• Well-established Irish expat scene

• No need for a car if you live centrally

• Property options for every budget

Tourist Tip:

Walk along the Dique de Levante — a long wooden pier stretching into the sea — just before sunset. It's one of the most magical (and free) experiences in the area.
