Villajoyosa is one of the most charming towns you will find in the Alicante region of Spain. For years, it was remembered for its iconic brightly-coloured fishermen’s houses providing an unusual backdrop to the award winning beaches. Now, it is also known as ‘chocolate city’ due to it being the home of the delicious Valor chocolate.
Indeed, this beautiful coastal town is a foodies’ heaven with many restaurants boasting breath-taking coastal views, serving fine regional dishes such as paella, puchero (a meaty winter stew), fresh fish and shellfish as well as signature dishes centred on chocolate. It hosts an annual gastronomic fiesta with several of the best restaurants taking part.
For those more interested in topping up their tan than piling on the holiday pounds, the crystal clear waters of Villajoyosa are also perfect for swimming and water sports, with sandy beaches ideal for relaxing, soaking up the sun and enjoying the best of what the Costa Blanca has to offer.
Indeed La Vila Paradis, leading house builder Taylor Wimpey Espana’s latest frontline development, boasts access to a number of blue flag beaches which can be found right at the foot of these luxurious apartments.
Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Manager for Taylor Wimpey España comments,
“In the current economic climate, many buyers think that frontline properties are now in abundance and bargains can be found around every corner. Indeed whilst there are a number of resale frontline properties built 20 years ago coming back onto the market, those worth buying a far and few between in my opinion.
“Existing properties may seem attractive at first given their often lower price points but buyers should remember that unlike our new homes which all come with a 10 year guarantee, older properties may well need work doing to them and as you are not buying direct from the builder, there is no recourse if something serious goes wrong.”
New frontline developments in Spain such as La Vila Paradis are rare as land values in prime tourism and second home locations remain high but Taylor Wimpey España are confident that this new luxury development will prove a hit with British and indeed European and global buyers.
As Marc Pritchard explains,
“The Costa Blanca not only remains one of the most popular tourism destinations in Spain but also a second home hotspot. Our own sales record reflects its popularity with buyers from the UK, Scandinavia and even as far afield as Australia and a 57% increase in sales in the Costa Blanca seen in 2012 compared to 2011.”
So for those seeking a stunning frontline holiday home in Spain, look no further than the brand new 2 and 3 bed apartments at La Vila Paradis, Villajoyosa.
