Owners overview
Our Denia Home without transport.
Set in its enclosed walled gardens the community of El Palmeral is ideally located for all types of holidays. If you are looking for a quite veg out holiday, you’d be hard pressed to find a better choice. Just get the sun beds out in the garden and soak up the sun, and when it gets too hot, cool off with a dip in the pool, need a drink just pop in doors and fix yourself one. Alternatively, go over the road to one of the restaurants or bars and enjoy being spoiled.
If you like to be more active, no problem, just cross the road and a five minutes stroll down to the seven miles of beach. This will give you access to the palm trees edged sandy beach’s were you can swim and snorkel to your harts content. As you walk on the beach you will have the options to hire a Jet Skis, Para gliding, peddlows or be taken out on a boat for a sight seeing trips along the cost or if you wish fishing trips can also be arranged.
Our Denia Home with transport.
You can all stroll into town and watch the fishing boats come and go. In the evening you can also watch the boats being unloaded and the fish being auctioned off, and also buy the fish you have just seen unloaded.
If you prefer a more rugged type of beach, no problem. On the other side of Denia you can have all the coves and caves you might wish to explore if you don’t wish to drive you can walk it from El Palmeral to where the road finishes on the other side of Denia Las Rotas the bus terminates at this point.
For even more activities you can hire a bicycles, quad bikes, and of course cars. With Mount Montgo National Park as the back drop of Denia you also have some of the most breathtaking walking areas up the mountain trials; just ten minutes away in the car.
Going through Denia, you can drive over the mountain pass to Javia, stop at the top and take a detour to the left and check out the lighthouse and in so doing you will pass some nice restaurants some with their own pool if it gets to hot. The views you will enjoy are fabulous, looking down on the whole sweep of the bay of Javia.
What's on in and around Denia.
You can watch the ferries come and go from Balearic Islands, most of the produce is brought to Denia for unloading and also loads are taken on the board going out to the islands, as well as the Lorries and cars going both ways. A high speed jetfoil ferry will get you to Ibiza in two and a half hours. If you wish to drive or take a train from Denia, you can go to Calpe, Benidorm, Alicante and all points between. Not to be missed is Terra Mitica.
This is a must do thing, even if you have never had any inclination before. Hazel and I visited it in October of this year (2000) we had never been to anything like this. Built at a cost of over £200 million it’s breathtaking in its grandeur and the shows put on every half an hour are very good. All this is before you consider any of the rides, and what rides! Some rides though are quite gentle, for the little ones. This is going to be a huge attraction in the coming years; they have built a train station for Terra Mitica straight from Denia it’s the next stop after Benidorm. Buy the entry ticket at station which will include the train and bus, and for another 800 pts you can
