Over the years Ciudad Quesada has developed into an award-winning urbanisation, finally getting its own town hall, making it a town in its own right. The urbanisation is located on south facing slopes with commanding views over the salt lakes of Torrevieja, one an actual working salt lake, considered to be the most important in Europe, the other being a nature reserve. Beyond them the Meditteranean Sea glistens on the horizon. Further views take in the mountains and inland plains, covered with orange and lemon groves, filling the air with a delicate aroma.

Amongst the many facilities are an Aqua Park, Golf Course and Social Club with restaurant, live entertainment, bowls and swimming facilities. There are numerous bars, restaurants, shops including newsagents, supermarkets, hairdressers, banks with exchange facilities and medical centre. Ciudad Quesada is a secluded paradise, yet close enough to three towns, Torrevieja, Guadamar del Segura & Rojales.

There are many outstanding golf courses in the area including Royal Campoamor, Las Ramblas and Villa Martin where they have, in the past, held the Spanish Open, as well as La Marquesa, which is part of the Ciudad Quesada urbanisation.
