Living in Los Nietos

I think it is every ones personal taste, you have to visit Los Nietos and feel it. 

In my opinon the only positive side is the train to Cartagena. 

Are you talking about Los Nietos, located close by Los Alcázares? If so it is true that Los nietos outside of summer holiday season is really quite, most of the houses are closed. Personally I prefer San Javier especially if you plan to stay all year or also come outside of summer season. San Javier is not a touristic village/town at all, but outside of summer season all shops remain, there is moral local people than tourists and as a result most of the houses are occupied all year. It is only 5kms from Los Nietos.

i think youre confusing Los Nietos with Los Narejos!! Los Nietos is about half an hour away and around 30kms! Near to Cartagena, but agree that San Javier/ Santiago de la Ribera is a better choice!!

Yes indeed! sorry
