Alicante is the second largest city in the Valencian region of Spain, perfectly located on the South Eastern Mediterranean coast. The population of almost 500,000 makes Alicante a bit more than just a seaside resort and offers a combination of modern day living standards, excellent roads and public transport, a variety of entertainment, a mild winter, guaranteed sunshine in the Summer and eating out is a real pleasure.Alicante is one of the fastest growing cities in Spain, especially in the building sector which under current economic conditions has left an abundance of bargain properties for sale. I am sure they will sell due to the area of Alicante having so much to offer to anybody looking for a new adventure in a land where it hardly ever rains and where you will never have to feel cold again. Language and communication may present problems, but that just helps to give a new incentive in life, but even without any knowledge of Spanish you can still get by.
Things to see and do around Alicante include a visit to the Santa Barbara castle, a round of golf on several par 72 surrounding golf courses. For children and the more adventurous you have Water sports, the Terra Mitica theme park and several safari parks so you will have plenty of reasons to go out and about and make the most of the day in glorious sunshine. Talking of sunshine, don't forget the long sandy beaches where you can either lie out and fry, or have a refreshing drink in the shade of one of the beach side bars.
There are several 5 star hotels in Alicante as well as many very reasonable 3 star hotels, or you might just fancy staying in the Holiday Inn, in the Playa San Juan. Otherwise if you would rather land at the Alicante airport, get picked up by an English speaking taxi driver and then driven with care to a luxury villa in the Alicante golf urbanisation, just 25 minutes away. If hire care is required, it can either be organised online or at the Alicante airport on arrival. The tram is just a 2 minute walk from the villa, so you are well connected to Alicante and also Terra Mitica which is just before Benidorm.
Alicante really is a Golfers paradise as you can virtually play golf every day of the year, and beach lovers can expect to enjoy at least 330 sunny days a year. The nightlife is also complete in variety including a brand new casino found in the harbour area of Alicante. Something else also very popular with the locals in Bingo, funnily enough but there are no "2 Fat Ladies" in Alicante, so you need to brush up on the Spanish numbers before having a go, as there really are some very big cash prizes.
