Beautiful finca with private pool

This charming Spanish finca in Javea is surrounded by beautiful mature gardens with a beautiful backdrop of the Montgo mountain and offers an abundance of traditional features such as stacked stone walls and sloping beamed ceilings.

Barranca has a cozy living room with a fireplace and a separate dining room with a wood-burning stove. The spacious, modern kitchen opens onto a covered terrace that runs the full length of the villa; an idyllic place to relax and enjoy al fresco meals on warm Mediterranean evenings. From the terrace, a few steps lead to the spacious lawned garden surrounding the beautiful private pool.

There are three double bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom. The finca is well located for a relaxing holiday, yet close to the picturesque old village, the lively harbor and the fantastic sandy beaches of the Arenal.
Jávea consists of three parts; the old city center where remains of piracy and all kinds of domination of other peoples can be found, the harbor and the 'Arenal'. Jávea is located between Valencia and Alicante and is surrounded by rocks, mountains and a rich variety of vegetation.In the old town you can still find many remains of piracy that took place here around the 14th century. In the remains of the fort you can still see the remains of the cannonballs. In the historic center you can now mainly enjoy a snack and a drink in one of the cute cafes. You can also go to a large food market that opens its doors around 8 am in the early morning and closes at 2 in the afternoon for a siesta. At 5 p.m. you are welcome again to select local products until 9 p.m.

Another nice market you can find in the historic city center is to visit every week at Plaza de la Constitución. Another thing that is definitely worth a visit in Jávea is the Archaeological and Ethnographic Museum Soler Blasco. There have been many conquests and rulers in this part of Spain that have left deep traces. The oldest remains of the harbor date from the 15th century. Unfortunately not much of this can be seen anymore. At the time, the port was not yet very important. From 1871 raisins were shipped from Jávea. This has ensured that the port was developed and increased in size. In the 19th century the harbor became a fishing port. There was no more enthusiasm for raisins. The port was modernized in the mid-19th century.

The 'Arenal' refers to the beach. The water of the Mediterranean is almost always pleasant here. In the winter months not always for swimming, but certainly for a paddle. It is also possible to practice various water sports in the sea near Jávea such as diving. In the summer you can enjoy a snack and a drink or a night out on the boulevard at the beach Playa del Arenal. There are also many beautiful beaches around Jávea. An example of this, one of the most beautiful, is Playa de la Granadella, also called Playa Granadella. Located in the bay, and from the mountain, you have a unique and beautiful view. The distance from Valencia or Alicante to Jávea is about 100 kilometers. You can choose to rent a car and then drive on the 'normal' highway where you drive past various towns and villages and you can also make a stopover.In Jávea there are many festive events to attend. The solstice is celebrated on June 23 with a big party (San Juan). There are bull runs, fireworks, papier-mâché artwork and traditional bonfires. Other traditional holidays include the religious solemnity of the holy virgin (La Virgen del Carmen) and a festival called Moros y Christianos (Moors and Christians), which takes place from 12 to 20 July. Two major cities close to Jávea are Alicante. and Valencia. These two cities are both about an hour's drive away. There are several buses going to and from Jávea and therefore Jávea is still easily accessible despite its isolated location. Ibiza is also nearby. You can see this island on clear days. It is 'only' 90 km away and you can easily reach this island by ferry (with or without car).
