The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region


With all year round sunshine, virtually guaranteed in summer, it’s not surprising that the Costa Blanca is a popular holiday resort for all, from young to old, families and soloists and for those who want an active holiday to those who just wish to relax and sunbathe.

This is an area where there is plenty to do with beaches, water sports, Safari Park, horse riding, shopping and general sightseeing all close by. You can travel along the Costa Blanca as the road goes all way alongside the coast taking in the beach resorts of Guardamar and Torrevieja and the wonderful cities like Elche, the palm tree capital of the world.
There are many attractions on the Costa Blanca like the entertainment park Terra Mitica at Benidorm or the bays of Altea and Calpe. Others are smaller towns and villages like Villajoyosa just south of Benidorm, famous for its old town and its chocolate.
The wonderful seaside resort of Torrevieja is within easy driving distance and boasts long sandy beaches, warm seas and wonderful restaurants, both Spanish and European style. The harbour gives home to 300 fishing ships and over 900 private sport boats. A wonderful view especially when sun sets. It is also home to a fish market, landed fresh from the sea.
The entire area around Torrevieja is famous for its salt production. Huge salt lakes surround the road down from Alicante. The huge salt mountains produce annually more than half a million tons (it makes you respect the way you will use your salt and pepper next time!!).
Festivals or Fiestas take place throughout the year in many of the towns and cities in the area and are a carnival of sound and colour and are an experience not to be missed.
The La Marquesa Golf course is only about 5 minutes drive from the villa and 4 more Championship Golf Courses within 20 minutes drive from this property.
The Ciudad Quesada, Rojales / Atalaya Park area
Atalaya Park is set in a residential area with all amenities and attractions in the local towns of Quesada, Benijofar, Rojales and Torrevieja all within easy access.
Only 10 minute drive to 8 miles of white sandy beaches at Guardamar and Torrevieja with nature parks, salt lagoons, two salt-lakes with Europe's best healing climate (rheumatism, asthma, skin). Trips to Alicante (promenade), Elche (park of palms), Murcia (Gardens, theatre), Cartagena (roman settlement), Mar Menor (inland sea) and hiking in the mountains.
From the Villa and within walking distance you have Quesada town, located through its wonderful arch. Here you will find a number of shops, bars, restaurants and banks, which accept UK cash cards. So whether stocking up on provisions or relaxing in the sun with a beer or a coffee, you will find everything you need on your doorstep. All culinary tastes are catered for including Spanish Tapas, Chinese, Indian, Thai, Italian and European cuisine. For pre-dinner drinks there are typical Spanish bars, Irish themed bars and even a bar where you serve yourself from your own beer tap!!
Not forgetting the kids, a crazy golf course and a waterpark are both within easy walking distance as is a gym for those wishing to return in better shape than when they arrived!! Bicycles can be hired locally to explore the local area at a gentler pace. For the less active, there is a snooker/pool hall close by.
Within easy driving distance are a number of markets for those seeking to return with some genuine Spanish souvenirs or looking for a bargain.
For those wishing to keep in touch with the UK (and the weather!!) all national papers are available in the town.
