BENISSA
Costa Blanca Villas and Apartments

Benissa is a beautiful town and area in the northern part of the province of Alicante, on the Spanish Costa Blanca. The area extends from the inland town of Benissa down through the mountains and valleys to the Mediterranean coast, and extends from Moraira to the north and Calpe to the south. Here there is a wide choice of holiday properties, from large luxury villas with fabulous sea views to small and inexpensive apartments. Montemar, on the area's small localities, is close to the beaches of Moraira, with its outstanding range international restaurants, bars and shops.

The area has been described as "little Europe" because it is home to thousands of northern Europeans who live here, attracted by the beautiful countryside and coast, the excellent climate and wide choice of properties. The area has kept its unique character and beauty, with a real Spanish flavour.

The coast is beautiful and green with its little coves, beach bars, picnic areas, mountains and most properties here offer exceptional views of mountains, sea and the Peñon de Ifach (Rock of Calpe). The beautiful, clean beaches have glistening white sand and crystal-clear waters, and the backdrop of the tall mountains and wide valleys with vivid green countryside create this area's unique appeal. This combination of verdant rural countryside and superb, safe beaches is the perfect recipe for your relaxing family holiday - a serene location, fantastic views, good local facilities and with the lively towns of Moraira and Calpe close by, this area offers you the best of both worlds.

The ancient historical part of the town is well worth exploring. The buildings and streets have been perfectly restored to their original splendid seventeenth and eighteenth-century condition with attractive town houses, narrow streets, churches and town hall. The church in the old square right in the centre of the town is particularly interesting with its beautiful gold carvings and clever use of sunlight to create the most stunning golden light in the chapels.
