Enjoying an average of 300 days sunshine a year the Costa Blanca has one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in Europe with a superb all year round climate and miles and miles of pure white "Blue Flag" sandy beaches. A warm welcome is always extended by the local Spanish people and it is not surprising that this has become a popular resort for British holidaymakers.

By car the villa is within easy reach of Alicante and Benidorm with Barcelona about 6 hours away. Ferries are available to the beautiful island of Ibiza from Denia, about 3 hours away.

A 2 hour drive to Benidorm allows you to visit the city itself or you can try out the Terra Mitica theme park, a kind of Alton Towers, or Aqualandia, a water park with loads of slides and fun pools.

Next door to Aqualandia is Mundo Mar (Sea World) with dolphin shows, seals and many other attractions.

The Port of Alicante

The city of Alicante spreads out below the magnificent castle of Santa Barbara which sits high on Bencantil Hill and overlooks the harbour and picturesque Santa Cruz quarter that dates back to the middle ages. A mixture of modern and ancient buildings that has kept its heritage in this vibrant Spanish port.

The area is complemented by three golf courses; Las Ramblas, Villa Martin and Campoamar, with another under construction, together with leisure marinas where charter fishing can easily be found. Further inland are the fragrant orange groves and pine woodlands.

The nearby town of Torrevieja offers a superb range of facilities and amenities, fabulous shops, hypermarkets, bars and restaurants. There is also a weekly market offering a tremendous selection of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and locally caught fish.

The 50 mile stretch of coastline from Alicante to Torrevieja offers the very best value for money in Southern Europe for its beaches, golf courses, country locations and all year round sunshine.
