About this property
Occupying a peaceful position in a quiet neighbourhood close to the coast and the towns of Moraira and Calpe, Villa Mateus is a comfortable and spacious holiday home for a large groups of friends or family travelling together.
With its mix of white walls, tile floors and wood furnishings throughout, this villa is a cool place to come back to after a long day spent exploring the local area. Made up of two independent accommodations accessed via an external staircase, we think this property is a great choice for two families on holiday together that would still enjoy their privacy.
Walking into the ground floor of the property, guests are met with an open-plan social area consisting of a kitchen, dining room with modern woodburner, and a seating area with direct access to the pool area. On this floor there are also three of the bedrooms and two shared bathrooms. Travelling upstairs via the external staircase, guests are met with the remaining bedrooms, along with another open-plan area to sit and dine with your fellow travellers. In fact, you can even move out onto the connected outdoor terrace and enjoy the sun here whilst you have a glass or two together!
There are six bedrooms in total, with two having a double bed each and one that also has an ensuite bathroom with shower. The four other bedroom feature two single beds each. For everyone’s use are three lovely bathrooms, with two having both a shower and bathtub and one with just a shower.
The exterior of the villa features a partially-covered first-floor terrace with a dining table that seats up to 12. Further outdoor dining options can be found down on the main patio, with a schedule that sits next to a kitchen with a barbecue.
A seating area under canopy is the perfect place to relax with a pre-dinner drink or contemplate having a dip in the pool. Sun loungers and various exotic trees surround the private swimming pool for a comfortable feel. Explore further into the garden to discover a range of colourful and fragrant plants.
Stretches of the coast are within a 10-minute walk of Villa Mateus, with Cala Llobella being a particularly attractive cove to visit. It’s made up of pebbles and gravel, so while it’s not a place for lying back and relaxing, it’s great for spending some quiet time with the children and taking in the naturally beautiful surroundings.
You can also hire paddle boards and kayaks to enjoy the waters here, with the rocky nature of the shore making it unsuitable for children to go swimming.
A sandy beach can be found at Playa de la Fustera, which you can reach in about 10 minutes on foot. Or you can jump in the car with a picnic and be enjoying a day out by the sea in no time at all.
The sands here are soft and golden, and the turquoise water is incredibly bright, making it ideal for snorkelling. The sea is also very calm, so everyone can enjoy swimming safely too. There’s a great restaurant on the beach where you can stop for lunch and sample some local fish or seafood.
The town of Calpe is around a 15-minute drive away from the villa and has a fascinating hilltop old town area to explore. Cobbled streets are lined with charming shops, and there are several churches and museums to stroll around, including the parish church of Nuestra Señora de las Nieves and the Archaeological Museum.
Benissa is another charming and historic seaside town that’s full of impressive buildings and sites. It’s also around 15 minutes away by car. It’s one of Costa Blanca’s oldest villages and like Calpe, has an atmospheric historical quarter. There you will find a town hall which used to be a hospital in the 18th century and a beautiful neo-Gothic parish church.
