Why Altea Hills Is the Costa Blanca’s Most Exclusive Address

Set into the hillside above Altea, with the Mediterranean spread out below, Altea Hills is widely considered the most exclusive residential area on the northern Costa Blanca. Here is what makes it so sought-after — and how to stay there.

The location

Altea Hills sits in an elevated, gated setting between Altea and Albir, giving its villas sweeping, protected sea views that lower coastal properties cannot match. The position catches the light beautifully and stays peaceful, while the town, marina and beaches are only minutes below.

The properties

This is an enclave of contemporary architecture — clean lines, floor-to-ceiling glass, infinity pools and vast terraces designed around the view. The villas here are built for indoor-outdoor living and privacy in equal measure.

The lifestyle

Residents and guests enjoy proximity to golf, the marina, fine dining and the old town, with Alicante airport around an hour away. It is the rare combination of seclusion and convenience that makes the area so prized.
