The Costa Blanca extends from Denia in the north to Torrevieja in the south. The area is renowned for its sandy beaches, wall to wall sunshine during the summer months and its wealth of tourist amenities and attractions. Go a short way inland however and you will find the real Spain, with unspoilt villages, fantastic scenery and an altogether slower pace of life. Denia in the north has a large port area with Marina and fishing port. Ferries to the Balearic Islands depart from here. The sea front is lined with bars and restaurants and it is a great place to do a bit of shopping. One of the most visited attractions in Denia is the Castillo or castle, which was built in the 11th and 12 centuries and offers amazing views of the surrounding area.
To the south of Javea are the tourist resorts of Calpe and Benidorm with their nightlife, and tourist amenities. In summer Benidorm is the party capital of the Costa Blanca with 1000 retaurants and bars and 30 discos. For those with children, Benidorm also boasts 4 theme parks, ranging from Terra Mitica, for the 'wildest rides in Europe' to Mundomar Marine Exotic animal park, with dolphinarium and a host of other attractions. Aqualandia water amusment park will cater for those wishing for water based attractions.
Further inland is the village of Guadalest, perched precariously on the pinnacle of a granite mountain, and offering stunning views of the surrounding area and a wealth of history.
Whatever your tastes, the Costa Blanca has a plethora of attractions to suit.
The Javea / Montgo area
Javea has been described as the 'Jewel in the Crown' of the Costa Blanca and the WHO has said that it has one of the healthiest climates in Spain with more sunshine hours than any other town in in the country. The town is divided into three distinct areas. The pueblo, approximately 3km inland is typical of the local Spanish villages and is a warren of narrow lanes bounded by traditional Spanish town houses. Most of the village has been preserved as it was and is a super place to explore. The village offers plenty of cafes and restaurants and there is also abundent shopping - the Thursday Open air market is a must at least once during your stay. The 12th century church and covered market at the top of the village are also definitely worth a visit.
The Puerto at the bottom of the hill from the pueblo is lined with restaurants and bars and is a lovely place to go for a walk. Fishing boats come in to land their catch most evenings and a small fish stall operates during the evenings in the summer. If you like fish straight from the boat, this is the place to get it. The majority of the Port is now given over to the yacht club marina and moored private yachts. Small sightseeing boats operate from the northern harbour wall during the summer season.
The Arenal beach area is where most sun worshippers and swimmers like to go. This is a beautiful sandy beach with a promenade lined with shops, restaurants and cafes. This area can get quite boisterous during the season but is a good place to enjoy the tourist attractions. If you prefer a quiter place to enjoy the beach, the Obispo beach to the north of the Port or the beach at Portixol, just south of Cabo San Martin, will provide what you are looking for.
Interspersed between the village, Port and Arenal beach are most of the apartment buildings, with Villas occupying the surrounding hills.
For golfers, La Sella golf resort on the Jesus Pobre road offers one of the best 18 hole courses in the region and is only 10 minutes drive from Monte Alto.
Horse riding is available on the Jesus Pobre road, and there is a go-cart track at Delfin Park, behind the Arenal beach.
Walkers are spoilt for choice with fantastic walks in the surrounding hills, at Portixoll and Granadella just a few kilometres south of the Arenal, and on the headlands of Cabo san Antonio and Cabo la Nao.

We found the villa to just as described in the details and more. We seemed to relax the moment we arrived and barely moved in the 9 days we were there. It is a villa with a very traditional feel and felt like a home. The kitchen was very well equipped, including a coffee percolator that you use on the hob, so you don't have to miss out on a decent coffee while on holiday. The sunbeds had lovely comfy cushions and were the most comfortable we have had at any villa we have visited. There are also cushions for the plastic outdoor chairs and a big umbrella. The pool is great and my husband even managed to use it in October as the weather was pretty good. There are a number of places to sunbathe and a lovely terrace shaded by a big tree if you like a little bit of shade. Probably the best part of the villa for us was the naya. We had a couple of cloudy days and we could sit comfortably in the naya with some doors open and still feel as if we were out in the open. Of course the nights were starting to feel chilly once the sun went down and we spent every evening in the naya. There was a scrabble board and a pack of cards available, which was great for us. We ate in most of the holiday, my husband making use of the barbecue more than once. We found that the prices in the numerous supermarkets of the area were very good, and the alcohol amazingly cheap! There was a bottle of white wine (I think it was called Lyria) that was pretty good and only cost 1.64 euros. I would happily visit this villa again. |

First impression when we arrived in the drive way… Wahoo! Second impression when we entered the house…Wahoo! Third impression when we look around and found the swimming pool and garden… Wahoo! The whole house is furnished with traditional features which is a good change from our modern home and still very comfy. We wanted something different and traditional and we got it. There is a bedroom (that we did not used) with a very nice new en-suite bathroom that is perfect for family with older children or relatives as it is separated from the over 2 bedrooms. Kitchen contained everything we need to cook holiday meals! We had BBQ almost everyday with a glass of chilled sangria... We loved eating on the terrace on swimming pool side and listening the insects noises from the pine trees. The kids loved to be in the conservatory playing with their toys or watch a DVD in the cool living room when was to hot to be in the garden. Swimming pool was great (gardener coming very often to take care of it) even greater to refresh ourselves between relaxing-roasting periods on the garden bed chairs. Careful hungry mosquitos at night! need to prepare the rooms before bed time with spray! Javea is a pleasant little city with nice narrow streets. The sandy beach is on the small size for this time of the year, very busy approaching the sea but we always manage to find a little space for our sandy castles! The sea was blue clear and water warm, a real treat. Maybe Denia was less crowded. In Javea there is a street market on the Thursday (clothes, fruits and veg, olives, ham and yummy churros! Busy but a lovely market. Shopping facilities are very good and the way back from beach. We arrived during the Jazz festival but we did not find the venue!!! Too bad Spanish spoken! After a couple of attempt in different restaurants (not ranking our expectations for the price given!) we did find a great one (the last day!) serving tapas on the stick… ask for “mirtella” chupitos -left hand side down the stairs that go to the Church in the city centre. Overall we did have a great time, and we already miss the Montgo Mountain and its little cloud attached to it. |
