Xabia is the city's name in the local language of Valencian, while Javea is the Spanish / International. Javea is first and foremost a "municipality" - a large municipality - and "the city" if we can call it "divided" into three - "old town" a few kilometers in and up in the country, "puerto" (the harbor) in the northern end of Javea Bay and "Arenales" (the famous beach and beach town at the southern end of the bay). Around these there are several fantastic residential areas. So when someone says that the property is in "Javea" it is important to know "where in Javea?". Exclusive residential areas around Javea are eg. South Montgo, Toscal, San Antoni, Adsubia, Tossalet, Portichol, Costa Nova, Balcon al Mar etc. Javea is one of the most beautiful cities on the Costa Blanca and is probably considered something more "up-market" and the prices probably reflect it to some extent. But Javea is a relatively large city with approx. 30,000 inhabitants and the surrounding area are large - therefore, prices for properties will vary accordingly. Tourism is Javea's main industry, but has retained much of its charming history and is not significantly damaged by the apartments, villas and hotels that have been a natural consequence of tourism that has increased significantly in the last 20 years.

Javea is a good and popular place to settle for non-Spaniards as well as Spaniards from other parts of Spain. Main reasons are another fantastic climate and a friendly and inclusive locals - the popular and well-known Arenales beach with all its offers (in season), the harbor and the seafront, the well-preserved old town and the many wonderful fiesta and celebrations throughout the year also contribute . In Javea there are strong restrictions on construction and architecture, for example, property developers have no opportunity to build high-rise buildings that would destroy the city's unique characteristics.

The old town of Javea and the beautiful harbor make up an important part of the city's character. The narrow cobbled streets have many excellent and modern shops, but at the same time have managed to preserve the original. The Old Town also has plenty of excellent and pleasant restaurants, pavement cafes and bars. Modern supplements in the form of galleries, internet cafes, modern shops can also be found in a traditional setting. Super-charming! Let's also not forget about the harbor with the beautiful marina and the beautiful beach promenade.

The vast majority whether they are tourists or locals in Javea spend a lot of time on the famous Arenales beach. Arenales beach is nearly a kilometer long with fine sand and palm trees for shade and well-being, and there are good facilities such as showers, toilets and deck chairs / umbrellas. There is a lot of life in the season and many excellent restaurants, cafes, chill-outs, bars, clubs and shops. The beaches of Javea are not the longest of the coast, but the greatest is not always the best, and Javea's beaches are great for families with children. The city also boasts of having the most sunny days of everyone on the Costa Blanca, without us having to do so. But it's beautiful here.

Javea is beautifully situated between the two views of Cap de la Nao and Cap de San Antoni. You will find more spectacular scenery hardly along this coast. At Cap San Antoni, the Montgo National Park, a very popular hiking area, also begins. Here is also a natural maritime reserve.

In and around Javea you will find absolutely all types of properties - from simple apartments to some of Europe's most fashionable properties. If you do not want to stay "on the beach", which we do not recommend for those who want to stay there all year round, then there are wonderful options in and around Javea, and surrounded by hills and mountains that Javea is, there is of course no shortage of great properties with stunning sea views and / or to the majestic mountains inland.
