Home description
Looking for something quite different? Buscarro is an exceptional property in a fabulous location just outside Denia town. It has a lovely secluded setting, being surrounded by orange groves, yet is very close to the area's best sandy beaches, bars and excellent restaurants. The extensive private tropical gardens and unusually-designed boomerang-shaped pool create an environment found in few other rental properties.
Within the grounds there are various open and shady terraces for daytime lounging, rooftop terrace for evening cocktails, lawns, orange/lemon grove, colourful bougainvillea, almond/pomegranate/olive/fig and other fruit trees, and many palm trees of different types. Cacti and other succulents abound. The views across to the mountains are spectacular. Most visitors find it hard to tear themselves away whilst staying here!
The accommodation consists of a substantial 3-bed country-style villa (El Buscarro), with a separate studio apartment above, and across the pool a 2-bed stone cottage (the Casita) which is roomy and full of character. Each of the three is self-contained. There are 4 outside dining areas in total (1 rooftop, 1 poolside, 2 terraces with awnings). Teenagers love the separate studio. The entire property can accommodate 2 or 3 families holidaying together, a family with grandparents joining them, or a large group looking for something unusual to accommodate everyone. Perhaps a special occasion or function? Take a look at some of our guest comments later.....people have had some special holidays at Buscarro. It provides great flexibility in an exotic environment that is rarely available for such group combinations.

The Costa Blanca / Valencia / Alicante Province region
Take a leisurely trip to the Jalon Valley and stop for lunch at one of the many Spanish villages, or visit the area's coastal headlands for wonderful views, sheltered coves and snorkelling. If you're active, you may want to climb Montgo mountain. For families looking for activities beyond the beaches and the pool there is a Safari Park, Terra Mitica Theme Park and Aqualandia Water Park, all within 30-45 minutes drive from the villa. For golfers, there's a rich selection of courses nearby including the renowned La Sella course only 10 minutes drive away, plus large clubs at Javea and Calpe. Denia's Tennis Club is close-by. Try horse-riding or biking through the orange groves nearby. For sea-fishing there are numerous possibilities. And of course there are all the beach sports to hand: volleyball, jet skis, diving, snorkelling, boating, surfing, windsurfing and quad biking.
Denia area
Denia is a beautiful typically Spanish coastal town situated between Valencia and Alicante, and is made picturesque by its setting at the base of Montgo mountain, with its own 'ramblas' style main street, castle and quaint old town opposite the harbour. In contrast to much of Spain, the area has a lush feel to it due to the orange groves that surround the town. Frequently quoted as having the most ideal climate in Europe, with pleasant cool sea-breezes during Summer afternoons, it has a thriving fishing port, boat trips along the coast and daily ferries to Ibiza/Majorca. During summer evenings the harbour area restaurants buzz and there is a nightly street market. There are many excellent quality shops and some of the best of the area's hundreds of restaurants are at the new marina. One of the joys all year round is taking a long stroll all along the beach to Denia harbour. This golden sandy beach retains an unspoilt nature, is ideal for children, and sunsets can be specular.
Denia's claim to fame is having the most fiestas in Spain. We hope you'll be lucky to catch one, whether its bull-running or one of the many processions through the town's main streets. Check with the Tourist Information Office.
How to get there
From Alicante or Valencia directions take junction 62 of the A7/E15 Autopista for Denia and the villa is less than 10 minutes away from here by the beach. Best car hire deal websites for the area are sent to all guests on booking.

Please bring towels for outside use by the pool and on the beach.
We have bicycles which we can loan our guests by advanced request.
Our extensive tropical gardens and unique pool provide a setting that is very special for a rental property. Children love exploring the grounds, finding dens and hiding places. The grounds are watered 3/4 times a week by sprinklers and water pipes to keep them lush in the Spanish sunshine. At different times of the year you may be able to pick fresh from the trees: almonds, figs, olives, pomegranates, clementines, and of course oranges and lemons for home-made orangeade and lemonade.
There is electric gate entry into the grounds and a shady parking area for a number of vehicles. Families with small children will find the property secure.
The studio apartment has its own entrance and is located above the main house. Off the casita is a courtyard filled with bourgainvillea and other colourful succulents. From here there are spiral stairs to the rooftop terrace and wonderful views.
In the evening there is attractive lighting to the pool and across the grounds.

Guide/Restaurants/Bars
We provide a comprehensive manual at the villa covering everything you need to know for your stay at Buscarro. We've devoted a section to getting out-and-about in the area, and another covers many of the local restaurants and bars, to help our guests during their stay. There are literally hundreds of restaurants in and around Denia, ranging from very exclusive ones, to excellent good-value establishments, to traditional tapas bars, to those suitable for families. As well as the harbour area bars and beach bars, Denia has a number of up-market, late night bars for groups and couples both in town and in the new marina.
Some of the area's best bars/restaurants are within close proximity of the villa, and nearby right on the beach there are bars/restaurants perfect for families to relax while the children play on the sand both during daytime and evenings.

NB: Prices may be subject to change at the advertiser's discretion.
Rental prices include electricity, water, heating, bedding and bed linen, towels (except pool/beach towels) and all the normally required crockery/pans/glasses/cutlery etc for dining and for the kitchen. We also supply some tea/coffee/sugar/milk/water/condiments/cleaning products to help new arrivals get started. The owner pays for the pool and garden to be maintained weekly.

Renters are responsible for organising their own personal travel insurance to cover cancellation, injury, loss, damage etc. Renters cannot re-let or sublet to any other party. Any extra days to weekly hires are charged pro-rata prevailing weekly rates.
To cover cleaning, washing and preparation for each rental there is a charge of 90 euros for El Buscarro, 70 euros for the Casita and 30 euros for the studio.
Winter heating fuel is charged as used. Special rental rates are available for longer lets in low season......email for details.
