Very little on this site about places between Alicante and Benidorm. El Campello for example some 15 Km north of Alicante is a lovely little town with a fantastic beach and traffic free marine parade plus a marina. Loads of good shops and supermarkets without being over commercialised - not many hotels so tourism limited ... the Spanish however know it!! 

Good video on internet ... just put in El Campello.

 I agree with your points - however I was talking about adding a codicil or making a small change to a will in Spain ... you have to start from scratch in Spain - it costs me £50 in the UK through my solicitor.

 As a residennt in Spain part of my estate is in Spain and therefore I have produced a will. This of course had to be done via a notary (what a wonderful way to make money!).

I wish to alter this will but my lawyer says I must start all over again with all the same charges applied.

This is really nonsense and a typical example of the bureaucracy endemic in Spain.

Such a shame - wonderful country - chambolic administration.
