Torrox Costa or Torrox Pueblo
Hi - my husband and myself are in our late 50s and would hope to buy a property in Torrox area/surrounds so that when we retire in a few years we would be able to spend a number of months there initially. Would you recommend Torrox costa or pueblo. We will be visiting the area in September to have a look around. We will learn Spanish but that will take time. We would like to experience real Spanish life but we know its difficult when you don't speak the language but we would definitely try. We would like to be near to shops and not in the countryside. Is Torrox Costa just like any tourist area, or does it have a good mix of Spanish and ex-pats with a Spanish feel or would it be better to look at the Pueblo instead. It sounds as though Torrox pueblo might offer a mix of local and expats which would be lovely if that's the case, as it would be important to be able to hopefully join in various activities etc as time goes on. We had looked at Lanzarote as we know it pretty well but it is very much a tourist destination and you don't really get a sense of being in another country...apart from the weather of course.
Many thanks in advance for any advice.
Kind regards
