Hi Ian and Barb, i have been to Calpe a long time ago i used to hire a car at Alicante airport and travel to a place called Moraira not far from Denia i was looking at buying a small villa there but every time i went back there they kept putting up the prices that is when i started going to Thailand, i did buy a small place eventually in Ko Samui but i have sold that now i had it for about 7 years it was the best time of my life, i am off to Thailand in a couple of weeks i am really looking forward to it, all the best Ray.

Hi Ray. Moreira is meant to be lovely isn't it?? Never been to Denia Javea or Moreira. Did you have the Koh Samui place on the busier East coast of the island????. My parents had a place in Spain for about 4 years..... Bad timing as bought it around 2007 but had to come back to UK in about 2011 but as the financial crises had hit, they lost a few thousand Euros on the property. Have a great time in Thailand mate.
