In a bustling port with a maritime history that has stood the test of time, holiday apartments and villas in Denia are highly sought after by anyone with a love of the sea as the fact that this town occupies a unique situation in the foothills of the magical Montgó mountain means that you can never be without at least a fabulous view of the sparkling blue Mediterranean. Where locally grown raisins were once one of the most important aspects of trade and industry in Denia, tourism has now breached the gap with thousands of visitors to the Costa Blanca each year choosing to rent holiday villas and apartments in Denia in preference to any other coastal resort in the region, largely due to an incredible wealth of natural beauty and the kind of cultural diversity that means you can do anything from mooring your luxury yacht in the purpose built and totally modern marina to staying a few nights in a guesthouse before hopping on a ferry to investigate the landscapes and lifestyles of the Balearic Islands.

Standing at the highest point of the Montgó mountain, you can look down over the citrus groves and vineyards that carpet its sun-drenched slopes to a coastline of outstanding quality - year upon year sees the prestigious 'Blue Flag of Europe' being awarded to the beaches of Denia, many of which still remain un-crowded and unsullied despite the fact that more and more discerning holiday-makers book all available apartments and villas in Denia well before summer has begun to crank up its levels of heat and sunshine. The Montgó Natural Park provides a worthy diversion from all the scuba-diving, sailing and sun-bathing that can be enjoyed along the coast of Denia, where a leisurely stroll will give you a fascinating insight into a unique eco-system that supports a wide variety of flora and fauna, and an atmosphere of peace contrasts with the cosmopolitan vibrancy that drives daily life in the centre of town.

Averaging around 300 days of sunshine each year throughout much of southern Spain, villas and apartments in Denia prove to be as popular for a winter break as they are throughout the summer months in a part of Costa Blanca renowned for being one of the world's healthiest places to be. So add that to the fact that there are at least five world-class golf courses in the area, and many more if you travel further a field to resorts like Javea or Moraira, and a surprising number of people would consider a holiday rental in Denia to be a good enough excuse for escaping from the cold and gloomy weather of home...for at least a few days!
