Why People Choose La Zenia
Das Leben in La Zenia ist Beachfront-Luxus auf Costa Blanca. Die Welt dreht sich um Strand, Shopping und resort-ähnliche Annehmlichkeiten. Dein Haus ist nah genug zum Boulevard, dass die Lichter nachts sichtbar sind, nah genug zum Strand, dass du Salzluft atmen kannst.
La Zenia ist weniger etabliert als Villamartin, was bedeutet, dass die Gemeinschaft schneller und weniger formal ist. Es ist ein Ort für diejenigen, die den "Costa Blanca im Urlaub"-Lebensstil bevorzugen - perfektes Wetter, Strand, internationales Essen, Shopping.
