Apartments for long-term rent in Playa Flamenca

Playa Flamenca is the practical, lived-in heart of the northern Orihuela Costa. It has a sandy Blue Flag beach, the coast's best-known Saturday market, supermarkets, bars and pharmacies within walking distance, and prices that are usually a little lower than in neighbouring La Zenia or Cabo Roig. That is why apartments for sale in Playa Flamenca are a favourite of first-time buyers in Spain, retirees who want to live without a car and investors looking for steady long-term rentals. This guide covers the streets, beaches, 2026 prices, rentals and the checks we recommend before you buy.

Playa Flamenca stretches from the coast up to the hills near the AP-7, with the N-332 running through the middle.

• Beach side: apartment blocks and bungalow complexes between the N-332 and the sea, a few minutes' walk from Playa Flamenca beach. The most popular area for holiday use and for buyers who want the beach on foot.
• The commercial centre: the streets around the N-332 and the market area, with small shopping centres, supermarkets, banks, bars and restaurants. Very convenient for year-round living without a car.
• Inland urbanisations: quieter bungalow and townhouse complexes with communal pools on the higher ground, generally the best value in Playa Flamenca and a short drive from Villamartín.

To the south Playa Flamenca merges into La Zenia, and to the north into Punta Prima. For the wider picture, see our Orihuela Costa guide.
