Penthouses for long-term rent in La Zenia

La Zenia sits right in the middle of Orihuela Costa and combines two things buyers rarely find together: small sandy coves on one side and one of the largest shopping centres in the province on the other. That balance is why apartments for sale in La Zenia attract holiday-home buyers, retirees and families alike. You can walk to the beach in the morning, shop at La Zenia Boulevard in the afternoon and be on the first tee at Villamartín or Las Ramblas within ten minutes. This guide explains the different parts of La Zenia, 2026 prices, rental demand and what to look for before buying.

La Zenia is split by the N-332, and which side you choose shapes your daily life.

• Beach side (east of the N-332): established urbanisations of bungalows, townhouses and apartment blocks, many built from the 1980s onwards, with mature gardens and communal pools. From most streets you can walk to La Zenia beach or Cala Cerrada in five to ten minutes. Prices per square metre are the highest in La Zenia, particularly for sea views.
• Boulevard side (west of the N-332): newer apartment complexes built in the last ten to fifteen years around La Zenia Boulevard and towards Los Dolses, often with lifts, underground parking, solariums and large communal pools. Popular with buyers who want a modern, low-maintenance home.
• The edges: La Zenia merges into Playa Flamenca to the north and Cabo Roig to the south, so homes on the borders often combine the services of both areas.
