Things to do

BEACHES!

There are dozens of beaches within a 15-25 minute scenic drive from the Villa. Here is a small selection of our favourite beaches in the area and why we like them! If you are visiting us in the high season, and want to aviod the crowds, then Denia has 15km of beaches and Oliva has another 10km! You can also find beaches with nice restaurants and stunning little coves! There is a beach for every occasion!

Javea - Arenal

The Playa Del Arenal is a lovely beach in Javea sourounded by nice resturants, shops and icecream deli! There is also a number of volleyball nets on the beach which are free to use. We have a ball at the villa which you are welcome to take! It is a 25 minute drive from the villa, so best to combine with eating out, of what you have lots of great choices here. 'Chabada' is one of our favourites!

Denia and Oliva

One attractions to this area of Spain was the fact that there are good Kitesurfing beaches nearby. With many km of beach, the best location depends on the conditions and the time of year.

Playa La Granadella

Rated on some websites as the nicest beach on the Costa Blanca, Playa La Granadella can be a nice option. We suspect that during high season, it will be overcrowded, due to being a relatively small beach. It is stoney too, but the water is stunning! Recommended in the off season.

Tennis & Padel

The local Tennis and Padel club in La Sella is our favourite place to spend time away from the Villa. Just a few minute drive or a 25 minute walk away! With five high quality clay courts, two astros and two padel courts, you couldn't hope for a better set up. To top it all off, there is a lovley resturant overlooking the courts, where you can have a well earnt drink after your game! If you are looking for a Tennis or Padel Tennis holiday, we suggest you look no further! Below you will find some nice photos and information about the club!

Court Hire

Tennis Courts are easy to hire and are great value for money. The Clay courts are just €15 an hour. Padel Courts are €20 for 90 minutes

Tennis Lessons

The coaching team at La Sella are fantastic. Diego, Kurt and Kiko are all great coaches and their rates are very reasonable.

Golf

Another driving force behind choosing Finca Mar De Olivos was the local golf course. La Sella Golf Club is only 10 minute drive away and is a beautiful course overlooked by the Mongo mountain. With great practice facilities, lovely clubhouse and sensible green fees, it is an ideal course to play!

La Sella Golf Club - 10 minute drive

La Sella is the local course and was one of the attractions to buying Finca Mar De Olivos. Generally kept in great condition and with stunning views and surroundings. The green fee is around €100 however a book of 10 can be bought and shared between a group for €600 therefore giving great value for money. La Sella is now a 27 hole facility where they have also recently installed a great short game area. It is also home to a nice driving range. They also have a great clubhouse where you can have food and drink overlooking the 9th Green!

Oliva Nova Golf Club - 17 minute drive

Oliva Nova Golf Club is another option in the area. Quite a flat course, makes it less of a test. Green fees at the time of writing on their website are €70 during the day and €55 for a twilight round (after 1pm).
