Costa Blanca Property – The Most Popular Destinations and Why

Sep 24, 2018 Robert McMullan Technology 0

The Costa Blanca has always been a popular tourist destination with Brits as well as Spaniards. Property along the Costa Blanca coastline remains among some of the cheapest available. It does not suffer from over population like the Costa del Sol, which has also been a popular destination for decades. There are some beautiful coastal towns and villages along the Costa Blanca but Javea is certainly one of the most beautiful and for this reason, extremely popular. Not just pretty, but it has all the amenities available as well as remains authentic in atmosphere – If you are looking for “real” Spain then properties in Javea are worth a look.

Access

There are many things to consider when buying a property abroad, not just the price. Javea is only around an hour’s drive from Alicante which offers up a range of flights from many companies, which means you can usually get a relatively economic ticket throughout the year. When buying a property in Spain one of the most important considerations should be access. The property might be cheap but if family and friends cannot visit, or you cannot visit them, without lots of expense and stress involved you might begin to feel extremely secluded.

Hot in the City

Alicante is popular with tourism simply because the airport is just a few kilometres away. While there are beaches they are usually brimming with people as is the city itself. If you are looking for a relaxed environment Alicante would not be a top choice. Indeed, “hot n the city” would be a good phrase! That’s the beauty of Javea and the surrounding towns and villages in this area. Just far enough to avoid the hustle and bustle but close enough for access to those important amenities like the airport and consulate.

Old meets New

Javea is a marine town and the perfect example of old and new. The old town dates to the fourteenth century and adds real character and atmosphere to the town. Denia is another popular destination and a stone’s throw from Javea. From here you can get a ferry to Ibiza and other Balearic Islands. The beautiful Montgo Natural Park is also nearby, there is a fabulous choice of restaurants, beaches and the promenade. Rental property does well here so if you are looking for cheap property with rental potential Javea is certainly one to consider.

Climate

Compared to the UK southern Spain is a whole new world! The Costa Blanca has a Mediterranean climate with short winters and long hot summers. January is usually the coldest with an average temperature of around 12.3 °C. August is hot, hot, hot! You can expect around 30 °C throughout this month which makes the cool air and beaches extremely inviting. The people of Javea enjoy around three thousand hours of sunshine a year and all the pluses of a Mediterranean life as well as climate. Buy a property here and you could be doing the same!
