This may not be the poshest town to vacation, since most of the available apartments in the seafront belong to blocky condominiums developed in the seventies, but it keeps all the ingredients that are necessary to enjoy a quiet family life by the sea, while getting to know better the town’s permanent and temporary summer residents (most of them Catalans or coming from other parts of Spain). If you decide to buy a property for sale in L’Ampolla, you can be certain that during your stay here you will have a grateful stomach.
