About La Siesta
La Siesta is not a town but a residential area of Torrevieja, a city of about 95,000 on the southern Costa Blanca with a large foreign population. Our homes sit close together there, on the north side of the city. Each has a private pool, a garden and air conditioning. Torrevieja grew from salt mining and fishing, and its two big salt lagoons, La Mata and Torrevieja, are now a natural park with newer housing estates around them. The beaches are in town: Los Locos, to the north, has fine sand and a promenade, and La Mata is the longest.
Is La Siesta right for you?
- Best for
- Families wanting a private pool near Torrevieja's beaches
- Not for you if
- You want an old village with character, since La Siesta is a residential area of Torrevieja rather than a village.

Where exactly is La Siesta?
It is a residential district of Torrevieja, not a separate village, on the city's northern side. Town buses run to the centre about every 15 minutes, and the beaches and salt lagoons are a short drive away.
When is the habaneras festival near La Siesta?
Late July, every year. The International Habaneras and Polyphony Contest has run since 1955 and celebrates the songs that salt ships brought back from Cuba, so book early for that week.
