The upstairs apartment consists of 2 double/twin bedrooms, a large main bedroom with king-size bed, twin bedroom, large bathroom, livingroom, fully fitted kitchen and a large sun portch (naya). The naya is refereshingly cool in the summer months, providing an ideal setting for al fresco dining and cocktails.

Golf courses can be found in nearby Javea or Moraira. Golf Ifach in Moraira enjoys wonderful views of the Mediterranean and has a round of 9 holes. Javea has a round of 18 holes 

Just thirty minutes drive away is Benidorm, which boasts a bullring and several theme parks: Terra Mitica (themes on mystical civilisations from the Mediterranean region), Mundomar (exotic and marine animals) and Aqualandia water park. Being a cosmopolitan town, Benidorm offers the most varied entertainment. At night, the many nightspots provide something for every taste. We really enjoy the Benidorm Palace show, available with an evening meal, for a really spectacular and good value night out. During the day or evening, the atmosphere of the Old Town is enchanting with winding streets of houses with the traditional Algerian-style grilles. A charming and peaceful site is that occupied by the 18th century Parish Church of San Jaime, which houses the beloved statue of Our Lady of Suffrage, patron saint of Benidorm.   In addition to the theme parks, one of our favourite places to visit is the Algar waterfall. This is a picturesque spot, one of the most surprising in the whole province, being so incredibly green and rich in water. The crystal-clear, pure waters crash against the rocks and you can bathe under the 25 metre high waterfall, or in one of the deep pools to be found in the area. Also, driving through the Sierra de Aitana mountains, you can visit the Castle at Guadalest, built in the mid-13th century by the Moors. From this fortress there are the most spectacular views extending from the Aitana and Bernia mountain ranges to Mount Serrella further down, and, on the edge of the horizon, the smooth surface of the Mediterranean (pictures immediately below).
