Superb location, lovely apartment, clean well equipped and very nice helpful hosts. Old Altea town is beautiful with fantastic restaurants and quaint old streets. We will definitely go back.

“Wonderfull stay downtown Altea”

Altea is often (and rightly) called the Santorini of Spain. A charming old town with narrow streets and blue doors. This stylish apartment is just 20 meters from the heart of it all (the church & terraces). Inside, you won’t notice the hustle and bustle at all – instead, you’ll have plenty of space with 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, good air conditioning, and a kitchen with everything you need. There’s no private balcony, but you can sit right outside on the little platform, watch the tourists stroll by, and take their selfies. After 11 p.m., when the town quiets down, we loved heading out for a last cocktail at one of the many cozy terraces just 20 seconds away. Aranzazu and her sister are fantastic hosts. They welcome you personally and reply super quickly to any message. Real hospitality, just the way it should be. The apartment is located about 40 meters above the pebble beach. Since most tourists stay outside of town and only come in the evenings, the beach is usually pretty calm. The sea gets deep quickly, and the pebbles can be a bit rough on your feet, so don’t forget your water shoes. The seafront boulevard is lively but nothing like the big crowds in Benidorm. All in all: highly recommended if you want to stay in Altea’s old town and don’t mind a bit of stair climbing – it’s actually great for your fitness.

Excellent place

The house is located right near the church in the centre of Altea Old Town. The old town is beautiful and you have an amazing choice of restaurants nearby. The beach is a short walk and you can swim in the warm and clear sea. You will have a longer walk home as you walk up the steps enjoying the scenery. If you have a car you can travel around the area, we went to Calpe, which has a lovely beach. You can see flamingos on the salt marsh there. We also visited Benidorm which has an amazing sandy beach. The house is very nicely decorated and you will have every convenience, even a kettle. The kitchen is very well equipped so you can cook if you want. Beds are comfortable and there are three showers so it's perfect if you have multiple adults. The owners are very nice, helpful and considerate, they even let us use their beach chairs and parasols. They also speak English which is helpful if you only have limited Spanish.
