Location
About the surrounding area of Villa MansenidaLocated in the hillside village of Orba, Villa Mansenida is just a short walk from local amenities and several charming neighbourhood restaurants where you can enjoy traditional cuisine. Just 15 minutes by car, the colourful town of Pedreguer invites you to explore its winding streets and discover the impressive market square with cast-iron pillars and Arabic tiled roof. These days, a market is held every Sunday, and you can browse the stalls for local produce and sample some of the tasty regional specialities. For a more hearty meal, head to Taberna Antigua, where you can enjoy delicious plates and a relaxed atmosphere whilst tucked in the town center, Brou is a wonderful little restaurant serving up an innovative menu of classical dishes, as well as a good selection of wines. Other wonderful towns nearby are Jalon and Ondara, with plenty of shops and restaurants to visit during your trip.
Beyond Pedreguer, the Montgo Natural Park is the perfect place to spend the day in nature, exploring the countryside and enjoying an outdoor adventure. Stretching down to the coast, the beautiful parkland has a variety of trails to discover, and you can hike up to the summit or wander through the foothills looking out for the diverse wildlife and incredible variety of plants. For garden enthusiasts, on the other side of the mountain, the beautiful Jardin de l’Albarda is immaculately kept, and you can wander through the impressive gardens to see charming pergolas, water fountains and a handful of pavilions built in varying architectural styles.
With the coastline just 30 minutes away, it is easy to spend the day beside the sea, and there are numerous sandy bays and picturesque coves to discover. Javea’s main beach, Playa L'Arenal, is a great spot for families, with a long stretch of golden sand and several options to try out water sports. The beach also has good public facilities, as well as a number of chiringuitos where you can stop off for a tasty midday snack. Further along the coast, Cala del Portixol is a lovely shell-shaped bay protected by the Cap Negre headland. The pebble beach boasts clear turquoise waters, perfect for snorkelling, whilst charming white and blue ‘barracks’ (old fisherman’s houses) line the back of the beach. Enjoy a relaxing day soaking up the peaceful surroundings, or hire a kayak and paddle out to explore the rocky inlets and rugged cliffs.

Perfect Villa with great space
The location was perfect for us seeing family friends. The ease of access on arrival was great. The views from the terrace are outstanding Mountain View’s. Very clean and comfortable with a great space. The pool was kept well and maintained well during our visit. Village supermarket has everything you need but if you wanted more the local shopping mall in 15mins drive down the road… The only thing I’d have to say was some of the pool tiles kept popping off which we had to collect but the kids loved doing that with their goggles. Became a little game. We mentioned it to the contact and they are aware that extra maintenance will be needed.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
