Holiday Rentals in Altea

Altea is often called the cultural heart of the Costa Blanca — a whitewashed hilltop village where cobblestone streets wind up to the iconic blue-domed church of Nuestra Señora del Consuelo. Unlike the high-rise resorts nearby, Altea has kept its character: art galleries tucked between ceramic workshops, family-run seafood restaurants overlooking the marina, and a slower rhythm that draws travellers looking for something more authentic.

The town sits between the Sierra Helada Natural Park and the Mediterranean, giving you dramatic cliff walks in the morning and long afternoons on quiet pebble beaches like Cap Negret or Playa de la Roda. The marina at Puerto Greenwich — named for its position on the prime meridian — is one of the prettiest on the coast, and a natural starting point for boat trips, kayaking or simply a glass of wine at sunset.

Altea is also one of the best-connected towns on the Costa Blanca. Alicante airport is 55 minutes by car, Benidorm is a 10-minute drive, and the TRAM coastal train links you to both without needing a car. Whether you are a couple looking for a romantic escape, a family wanting to mix beach days with culture, or a remote worker drawn to the light and the calm, a holiday rental in Altea gives you the best of both worlds — Mediterranean lifestyle with none of the overcrowding.
