Description:
Los Alcazares is a working Spanish town with all the facilities you would need, like banks, shops, restaurants etc.

it's main attraction is the beach which extends for 5kms and has a palm lined promenade all   along it's length, the water is clear and blue flag status has been achieved. The sea is very safe from a child's point of view as it is non tidal and fairly shallow and gently deepens as you leave the shore.

The complex:
El Divino is a community of about 200 properties which has many year round residents as well as holidaymakers, for this reason it is impeccably maintained and reasonably quiet, it is suitable for families and couples but not "lads" or "girls" holidays as there is no "nightlife" as in "clubs" etc nearby, there are however many good restaurants and bars close by there are 2 large community pools and these are surrounded by well maintained communal gardens.

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE EL DIVINO COMPLEX IS ALSO A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY AND FOR THIS REASON CERTAIN COMMUNITY RULES APPLY.

Nearby:
you have a central square within 5 minutes walk of the apartment which has supermarkets, shops, cafes, restaurants, banks, internet access. This area has over the last 2 years become almost a new town centre and there are new business's opening here on a regular basis.
The beach is within 7/8 minutes walk and you do not need a car if this type of holiday appeals to you. If however, you do want to hire a car I can do this for you at the most competitive rates in the area.

Within a short drive you have the beautiful historic city of Cartagena which has many Roman ruins, it also has a recently restored port area, also here can be found El Cortes Ingles which is an exclusive department store.

Within 2 hours drive is the Holy City of Caravaca de la Cruz which is definitely worth a visit also within this sort of distance is the shrine of the Virgen in Calasparra which is a fantastic place built into the natural stone, I would however recommend a visit to the local tourist office as they can provide you with a wealth of information about what the area has to offer.
There are 2 water parks and a safari park within driving distance in Rojales, Torrevieja and Elche,

5) Las Ramblas golf course:
Overview: spectacular, elevated tees, narrow fairways and lightning greens. This is a great test of golf and will be a memorable game. Las Ramblas means the old river beds, you will see plenty of these during your round! This 18-holer is on mountainous ground which makes the course very interesting for players who like to take a few risks. As it is very mountainous, it calls for difficult strokes. It is worth mentioning the many trees that surround the course, and the water hazards. There are slopes are all along the course and although some of them are very difficult, they make the game more attractive and interesting. The course is not too long and has wonderful views. Accuracy is required.
