Javea holiday apartment

I am just back from a week in this apartment in Javea with my boyfriend. The apartment is very modern and had everything we needed and the location is perfect - just in between the port area and the beach area. Even though the beach is only a few minutes walk, we found a great place to swim off the rocks in front of the apartment. You can go snorkelling there too and there is a little outdoor bar where you get can a bite to eat and a drink after your swim. The sun hits the bar until sunset so you soak up the rays late into the evening. There is a great atmosphere at this bar with many locals coming along in their convertibles for an evening drink.
There is lots to do in the nearby area like a visit to the Algar waterfalls where you can swim in the pools under the waterfalls. There is a local market in Javea on Thursday morning.
The port area is to the left of the apartment and is more relaxed and sophisticated. The restaurants here can be more expensive. The ‘arenal’ beach area is to the right of the apartment and offers more budget restaurants but really there is something for everyone. There is a great Chinese restaurant just on the road behind the beach and it is very good value and delicious. I think it was called Chino. There are a few cocktail bars here and a bar/niteclub called Achill which is good but pricey.

We ate in the apartment a few times as there is a table outside on the balcony and it is a good spot to sit out for a few evening drinks and some home cooking. There is an Austrian restaurant that does great take away pizzas if you don’t want to cook. It is to the right of the apartment, towards the arenal, a few minutes walk at the end of the road before you reach the arenal part. The apartment even has a dvd player and some dvds for a cosy night in.

I would definitely come back here and would recommend it for a couple or a group of people looking for a relaxing/activity holiday.
