Playa de los Locos is a sandy town beach of about seven hundred metres, with a Blue Flag, located north of Torrevieja’s old town after Punta Carral. The whole district around it goes by the same name, less than two kilometres from the centre and right next to Playa del Cura.
Apartment buildings a step from the water
The district is made up mainly of apartment blocks, many with a communal pool, a lift and parking spaces. There are studios and small flats designed for holidays and also larger homes for people who live here all year round.
What really sets Los Locos apart is letting. In summer it fills with tourists who rent by the week, and out of season many flats are let from September to May to people who spend the winter here. That makes two cycles of tenants a year at the same door.
What we are asked for here
A new cylinder when tenants change
With so much coming and going, the keys end up scattered: the winter tenant, the summer one, the agency, the cleaner. If you do not know how many copies there are, the simple solution is to change the cylinder at the end of each tenancy. We explain it under change of tenant, and if you want it done now, see lock cylinder replacement in Torrevieja.
Keys inside in the height of summer
Going down to the beach in your swimming costume, leaving the keys on the table and the door closing behind you. In beach apartment buildings it happens more than you would think. We open without damage when the lock allows it, and we always check that the person asking has the right to get in.
Locks that suffer from the sea air
So close to the shoreline, the cylinders on outside doors and the catches on balconies wear out sooner. If the key is stiff, do not force it: with lock maintenance or a timely change you avoid being locked out.
