From my understanding, although I no longer pay a close interest, the owners are trying to have the site reclassified as a hotel, Santara Resort......that has upset a lot of people as apparantly Santa Pola Council sold the original promoters the land at a discounted rate for the specific use of housing and providing services for the elderly.
The original purchasers are also non too happy!!
I believe the arguments are being pursued in the courts, in which case we'll know the outcome in several years and after massive payments to firms of lawyers who will be the only people profiting out of this.

This is nothing to do with the Life Resort
I think the Care Home Rosie is talking about is this

The person you are referring to who works in the Farmacia had absolutely NOTHING to do with the care home mentioned. I think it is most unkind to mention someone in this manner.

Thanks for replies, I have been told since writing this, it wasn't even true and it is a nursing home, not sure what happened maybe papers got it wrong that 3 people were charged with fraud and being members of a underground organisation, and putting deeds of others to their own name, but thats the papers for you( thanks for that John but was talking about the one with a couple and their daughter, much appreciated
