Hello fellow DV-members,

We are new owners, bought an apartment a few months ago.  We spent some of the Summer there and now we plan to be back for some time in November and then again in January or February. We are wondering about heating.   What is the general experence?  How cold it gets? Will we need heating installed?  what kind of heating devise are you using, and how much the bills  (I know it depends on usage but any informaton would be welcome).  We are on the first floor, that is, apartment both below and above, facing SE.   We never used the AC, so we don't even know if it works for cooling, let alone for heating.

I would appreciate any information, experience, advise.  

Thanks a lot.

Thanks for the reply! very informative,

I read through the forum and I am not sure I understand the TV situation.  Seems like there has been some changes.  Could someone please explain how it works?  How should we go if we want some English speaking channels (plus my husband wants sport channels).  Are there any good packages?  Where should I look?  So far internet search was not productive for me (maybe doing it wrong).

After thorough search I think we will go with Movistar for internet.  But not sure about the TV.

Thanks for any help in that

Thanks,

Kinga

Hello everyone in the community,

We are in the process of buying an apartment in Duquesa Village, and (fingers crossed) should be proud owners by the end of May.  Well, we have no idea really as things go with a Mediterranean speed (aka frustratingly slow).

Any advice or help re moving in / setting things up, such as utilities, internet, insurance, etc would be very welcome. Any trick we may need to know about how to deal with Spanish bureaucracy, etc.  

I will have a 'pre-ownership' visit to Duquesa just before Easter and would love to meet some future neighbourghs!

Thanks, 

Kinga
