Three of us were lucky enough to stay for a week in Javea in February. We visited friends who were renting a very sumptuous villa (from www.javeaholidays.com). It was beautiful, just wish we had had the weather to enjoy the enormous pool area & sit in the sun. We were unlucky & only had 2 sunny days, so we had to just sit around & eat & drink a lot, it was terrible!!!

We did most of this over indulging " at home" but were
also out & about around the area. You must try Scallops on the sea
front at Javea. We went to have their famous cholesterol filled
typical English fry-up! Yes, its one of those joints but the
breakfast was fab AND included was a free bottle or either red, white, or
rose & all for €3.95!! Everyone emerges with a smile &
waving their bottle! What a brilliant business. 9/10

On a trip to Denia we visited this Pizzeria. Had the Menu del Dia at €8.70, nothing special, think the pizza would most probably have been a better choice. Good location on the sea front. 6/10 |

Ctra. Portitxol, s/n Javea. Tel:96 647
12 78 Booking recommended. This was definitely our favourite find of the
week! Wonderful atmosphere, waiters great fun, fabulous food &
very reasonable vino of which we had copious amounts! In fact had
such a good time I cant remember much about it apart from the most
gorgeous Gambas Pil Pil. Lights very low & flattering!
Highly recommended, sure a taxi driver would know where it is.

Christobal Colon, Paseo Amanecer, 5 Playa Arenal Javea Tel:96 647 09 58 We spent our last night here. All looks very new & swish but food not very special & fairly expensive. Waiters didn't want to show us menu of the day! Lights far too bright. 5/10 But we had a nice farewell evening.....

We spent our last night in Alicante as
we had an early flight home from there. We found this cafe late
afternoon/early evening & ended up staying here for ages! The
tapas were so gorgeous we just had lots of them instead of going somewhere
for dinner. Wonderful garlic prawns & meatballs, very yummy 8/10
And then we flew home & tried to get back on the diet! |
