Villamartin is one of the most popular areas of the Orihuela Costa and a long-standing favourite with British buyers. The La Fuente commercial centre, with its bars, restaurants and shops, is about a 10-minute walk away, and the lively Villamartin Plaza is around 20 minutes on foot. The Blue Flag beaches of the Orihuela Costa and the Zenia Boulevard shopping centre are a short drive away, as are larger supermarkets and Greenland's mini golf. Golfers can reach the Villamartin, Campoamor, Las Ramblas and Las Colinas courses easily. With its mild climate all year round, the area works well as a holiday base or a permanent home in the sun.
