Introduction to Pueblo Patricia at Puerto Marina
Another excellent development! One of Euromarinas’ most luxurious residential developments yet with a wealth of architectural details. 21 low rise blocks of 2 and 3 bedroom apartments and luxurious penthouses located within its own communal gardens with its own swimming pools. It is located on its own, near enough to ‘buzzy’ Los Alcazares to be within easy walking distance, yet far enough away to maintain its own identity, with a feeling of quiet calm, a place where the sound of birdsong fills the air. Within walking distance of the beach, shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, and even a luxury hotel. 

Our Personal Opinion
At spanish home 4U we pride ourselves in selecting the best properties in the best locations at the best prices, and this development certainly fits that bill! These are ‘MUST SEE’ apartments, situated in a booming and popular location within walking distance of everything that one needs for not only a holiday home but also for permanent living. This development ‘ticks all the right boxes’ and if you want somewhere with it all then this is certainly it!

Developer
Euromarina were established in 1972 and have for over 36 years been at the forefront of quality building in this region of Spain every since. When some other builders were building exterior walls in a single bricks and no effective insulation Euromarina were leading the way with double cavity wall construction and with thermal insulation in the cavity. They are not a “pile them high and sell them quickly” impersonal builder, they are a high quality builder with a ‘human face’, a company that simply oozes care and attention to personal needs. Even today they are still a family business, and no salesman here will hard sell anything to you – here a senior member of staff will sit down with you at their head office and discuss your needs and expectations. This is more a meeting of minds than a sales transaction! And doesn’t it feel so good afterwards, a real refreshing change nowadays!

But they are not just a builder of residential and holiday properties, they build commercial properties, shops and hotels too, and they pride themselves not just on the quality of construction, but on the quality of after sales service as well (which is just as important). They build with eco-friendly materials wherever possible and have a trophy cabinet of awards that are the envy of many a builder;
• ‘AQVA Gold’ award for business quality and management 2004.
• ‘AQVA’ award for business quality and management 2002.
•  ‘International Gold Star’ award 2002 for business initiative, technology and innovation in property construction.
• ‘Master de Popularidad’ award 1999 for provincial real estate business.
• ‘Costa Blanca Tourism’ award 1996 for the ‘Conjunto Rocio’ development.
• ‘Business Award 2000’ in 1995 from Centro Hispano Bank, the Valencia Regional Government and the ‘Dinero’ magazine.
• Trophee des Nations’ award 1995 from the European Academy of Tourism in Brussels to recognise the outstanding contribution to the quality tourist trade resulting from the ‘Dona Pepa Estate’ development.
• ‘Costa Blanca Tourism’ award 1994 for the ‘Dona Pepa Estate’ development.
• ‘Costa Blanca Tourism’ award 1991 for the ‘Dona Pepa Estate’ development.
• ‘Torrevieja Tourism’ award 1991 for the ‘Bravo Hills Club’ development.
• ‘Costa Blanca Tourism’ award 1990 for the ‘Pueblo Bravo’ development.

SENIOR properties available?
There are no SENIOR prices on the price list BUT many of the apartments might already be entirely suitable anyway. All are quite spacious and some are very large. All are well designed.
