Areas

Where to live in Benitachell

Most properties in Benitachell are villas, but there is a choice of settings:

• Village centre – townhouses and apartments within walking distance of shops, cafés, the school and the health centre.
• Cumbre del Sol – a large, well-kept residential area on the headland, with modern villas, apartments and panoramic sea views.
• Racó del Galeno – a quiet villa area close to the cliffs and coves, popular for its peace and nature.
• Countryside – villas and fincas among vineyards and almond trees between the village and Teulada.

Nature

Cliffs, trails and the open sea

The cliffs of Benitachell rise up to around 160 metres above the sea and are part of a protected marine area. Well-marked footpaths, such as the cliff route from Cala del Moraig to Cala Llebeig and Moraira, offer breathtaking views of the coast.

Inland, terraces of vines, almond and olive trees, and pine-covered hills create a peaceful landscape that is lovely for walking and cycling, especially in spring and autumn.

Schools

Education for every family

The village has a public primary school, and secondary education is available nearby in Teulada and Jávea.

International families appreciate Lady Elizabeth School, a well-known British international school located in Cumbre del Sol itself. Several other international schools can be found in Jávea, within a short drive.

Culture & festivals

Traditions and viewpoints

Like every Valencian village, Benitachell celebrates its patron saint fiestas with music, processions, fireworks and traditional events, and the community of residents from many countries keeps a lively social and cultural life all year.

Do not miss the viewpoints of Cumbre del Sol and the cliffs at sunset – some of the most beautiful panoramas of the Mediterranean, with Ibiza visible on clear days.
