Settled at the base of the Montgo mountain range, Villa Paulina Javea is surrounded by a sprawling landscape of green hills and pine-clad forests. It's hard to beat a more picturesque setting than this rural hideaway, blanketed with an expansive lawn peppered with palm trees and lush greenery. Grab a book and cosy up under the veranda, with plush sofas to sink into. If cooking outside in the fresh air sounds like a dream, there's a beautiful summer kitchen at your disposal next to a wooden dining table. The centrepiece of the outdoor space is the glittering eleven-metre pool, which tempts you to cool off on a hazy afternoon. Set in Javea, you're just a stone's throw away from its history-swept old town lined with restaurants, cafes, and shops. Sink your toes into its two standout beaches, proudly waving their Blue Flags; the pebbly La Grava is lined by a bustling promenade, while Arenal Bay is swathed with golden sands and shallow waters.
