Cumbre del Sol is a luxury residential development located on the Costa Blanca, in the municipality of Poble Nou de Benitachell, in the easternmost point of the province of Alicante. This beautiful residential area truly lives up to its name: it is a unique hilltop location offering incomparable sea views, especially at sunrise.
Cumbre del Sol is located between two of Spain’s most beautiful coastal towns, Moraira (4 km) and Jávea (12 km).
The unique location of this residential area gives it a particular atmosphere of privacy and tranquillity, making it ideal for those who wish to live in peace and quiet, in the lap of nature. At the same time, all amenities and infrastructures are within easy reach: golf courses, shops, cafés, restaurants, schools, etc.
The main residents are British, Scandinavians, Germans, French and Russians.
Climate and weather in Cumbre del Sol
Cumbre del Sol is especially loved by those who enjoy all the advantages of the Costa Blanca climate, i.e., 320 days of sunshine a year and nice temperatures, and who, at the same time, are surrounded by plant life: the Costa Blanca North is much greener than the Costa Blanca South.
The riches of this area were highlighted with special notoriety by the famous botanist Antonio José Cavanilles. On his journey through the ancient Kingdom of Valencia, more than two centuries ago, he described in detail the natural beauty and the surprising atmosphere of this place. A real little piece of paradise located between heaven and earth.
Nature of Cumbre del Sol
The Cumbre del Sol residential area covers an area of 3.7 million square metres and is located in the heart of a beautiful green and unspoilt area.
The design and architecture of the residential areas of the development are harmoniously planned so as not to compromise the natural surroundings but to complement it. In this way, it manages to create a perfect union between the two and one of the most welcoming places to live and relax.
This place is ideal for those who are looking for a luxury apartment or villa by the sea to live in permanently. Properties in Cumbre del Sol are also a great investment option for rental income: they are in high demand by those who enjoy peace and relaxation in the most pleasurable way.
The development is also a paradise for golfers, water sports enthusiasts and nature lovers.
Granadella Natural Park
The Granadella Natural Park, with an extension of 750 hectares, is a marvellous corner of the Costa Blanca with a great wealth of flora and fauna. It is a ZEPA (Bird Protection Area) reserve, where you can also find unusual areas of unspoilt nature on the Levantine coast. This is a micro-reserve of orchids, home to rare species of these plants. Rare species of ferns can also be found here. As for the fauna, rare species of sea birds and birds of prey can be found in the reserve, as well as some mammals such as foxes and wild boars.
This area is of great ecological importance and the scenery is spectacular.
In addition, the Granadella Natural Park preserves valuable historical and cultural monuments such as traditional cave dwellings, lime kilns, Arab tile factories, mines and much more.
Due to the proximity of the park to the development, residents of Cumbre del Sol have the wonderful opportunity to enjoy walking and cycling in this unique natural area, as well as practicing a multitude of water sports such as scuba diving and snorkelling.
Also, close to Cumbre del Sol is the Puig de la Llorença route and its spectacular viewpoint, which offers breathtaking panoramic views of the entire municipality of Poble Nou de Benitachell.
Beaches of Cumbre del Sol
Cumbre del Sol has some of the best beaches on the Costa Blanca and even in the whole of Spain. We are talking about Cala Moraig, Cala de Los Tiestos and Cala del Llebeig.
Moraig Cove
This small and picturesque cove with crystal clear waters is about 250 metres long and has an average width of 40 metres. The entire tourist infrastructure is at the disposal of holidaymakers and the bay is accessible to all types of people. This is the starting point of the beautiful route along the cliffs of the coast, la Ruta de Los Acantilados (the Cliffs Route). Nearby is one of the best places for diving and snorkelling, the extraordinary Cova dels Arcs.
Los Tiestos Cove
A bay of crystalline waters, wild and singularly beautiful, small and covered with pebbles. It can be reached on foot, after a half-hour walk. However, the most interesting part awaits you further on: it is only possible to descend into the bay with the help of specially fixed ropes, so this route is only suitable for people with a certain degree of physical training and who are not afraid of heights.
Liebech Cove
This cove is located in the Barranco de la Viuda, between Moraira and Poble Nou de Benitachell. It is not accessible by car, only on foot: from Poble Nou de Benitachell, along the picturesque Ruta de Los Acantilados, which runs among the cliffs; or from Moraira, through the gorge. This cove has a lot of charm due to the presence of the old fishermen’s houses that surround it.
