Default A house Benidorm for 3mths please

Hi - I dont know whether this is the right place but I wondered two things- one if anyone knows a house or bungalow that might be available in Benidorm for 2 or 3 months next March. -May sort of time (the dogs coming so can't hack an apartment this time). Limited budget so around 500-600euro p mth. This is going to be the beginning of a 6month trip out with a view to future permanence. We have saved long and hard and have negotiated time off for everyone...

We tried Torrevieja town couple of years ago - 6 weeks and did not manage to integrate at all as everyone so busy. Thought of trying somewhere else around orihuela costa but don't know where to start. So, has anyone any suggestions of a place where its lively out of season that we could go for 3 months or so -this is including my 16 year old so she would love to meet people her own sort of age. If it was down to me and her dad we would go to Los Alcazares for the whole time but theres no life there out of summer season.

The last time I posted something (not on this site) someone suggested the jobcentre may be a good place to start! - which quite unnerved me about posting anywhere as I didn't ask for quips like that - but perhaps you have to be thick skinned in these circumstances? Appreciate any help thanks

I am guessing you want to live in an expat community. If so, then maybe the coast near to Valencia (Denia/Javea/Oliva) would be a reasonable idea.

It depends what you want, most of the summer season costas tend to have a different kind of "life" during the winter, the spanish tend to go to them and older expats and tourists... in general!

I would suggest possibly the canaries if you want it to be warmer and maybe life would be more lively???????

Whatever you choose tho, the best course of action is to "google" rentals in whichever area and perhaps phone some of the agents???

Thanks to both of you - may have found a place if we want it in Benidirm and one in Los Alcazares. Seriously still considering Torre tho - and I'm not sure whats what in northern Costa Blanca because apart from a short spell in Albir many years ago, have never stayed there. Jude x
