Why Swedes love Ciudad Quesada

  • International life: Here you barely need to speak Spanish – everything is available in English and Scandinavian languages.
  • Self-sufficiency: Quesada is built as its own town with its own waterpark, golf course, mini-golf and bowling alley.
  • The Norwegian School: Having a Scandinavian school (Den Norske Skole Rojales) in the middle of the village attracts many families with children.
  • Year-round buzz: Unlike pure holiday resorts, Quesada is alive 365 days a year.

🤔Who is it NOT suitable for?

  • Those seeking "authentic" Spain (this is a modern international town).
  • People without a car (distances within the urbanisation are large).
  • Beach lovers who want to walk to the sea (the beach is a 10-minute drive away).
