San Luis
San Luis is an established residential area on the outskirts of Torrevieja. San Luis has its own selection of bars, restaurants, cafes, supermarkets, shops, banks and is close to the large central Medical Centre in La Siesta. San Luis is next to a nature reserve on a strip of land between the two large salt lakes just 35 kilometers south from Alicante El Altet airport and north of Murcias San Javier airport. San Luis has a very good local bus service that links with all the major towns in the area. San Luis is one of the longest established urbanisations in the Torrevieja area and is reflected in the well stocked comprehensive range of local shops that can be found nearby.

La Siesta, and El Limonar are similar residential areas very close by offering the same kind of facilities and amenities. Across Sna Luis there are plenty of bars and restaurants all on flat level walking roads and avenues where you can gaze at the numerous typical luxury villas with their private pools, or wander along the pretty little streets where the imaginative owners of the amigo and pepita bungalows compete to have the prettiest terraces and solariums, the largest conservatory or the highest extension added.

However, this all adds to the diversity of the area and its real sense of community. Fiestas and special occasions are celebrated on balmy poolside terraces in the Bellavista villas, while friends gather on the balconies and solariums of the La Siesta apartments  to share a glass of wine and watch the beautiful sunset over the natural salt lakes. Neighbours sit in glazed porches chatting about their bargain buys at Torrevieja market as the aroma of the wood burning stove or barbecue wafts tantalisingly along the calles.

San Luis has a very successful Bowls club and members are very proud of their achievements to date. A friendly place to meet like minded people. The central park has a very active Pentanca club, open air Tai Chi and mature gardens where you can enjoy the shade beneath the palm trees. The Princess Martha Luoise of Norway church in La Siesta is a busy social centre is closeby. For the youngsters the Flamingo Aqua Park in La Siesta is nearby and is good fun, as is Aquapolis in Torrevieja. A little further inland are the two famous salt lakes – the pinkish coloured Torrevieja lake and the other in La Mata. Both of the salt lakes are protected nature reserves and are a great area for cycling , horse riding and walking. There are 5 excellent golf courses within easy reach and another three bowls clubs.
