Villajoyosa

Villajoyosa, also known as La Vila Joiosa, is a coastal town on the central Costa Blanca known for its vibrantly painted beachfront houses, golden beaches, and rich cultural traditions. Once a historic fishing port, the town has preserved its local identity while welcoming visitors looking for something a little more authentic.

Its palm-lined promenade, wide sandy beaches, and picturesque old town make Villajoyosa a visual delight — perfect for relaxed strolls, market mornings, and family holidays. It’s also home to the famous Valor chocolate factory, adding a delicious layer to its charm. Located just minutes from Benidorm, Villajoyosa offers a calmer, more traditional alternative, while still being close to major attractions, schools, and transport links.

Why

Villajoyosa

Villajoyosa is the kind of place that sticks with you — not just for its postcard-perfect looks, but for the quality of life it offers. You’ll find a slower pace here, where neighbors still greet each other in the streets, and life revolves around the sea, good food, and community traditions.

Whether you’re living in one of the iconic seafront homes or tucked away in a hillside neighborhood, the town’s mix of authentic Spanish life and accessible coastal living makes it ideal for both full-time residents and long-term visitors. Add to that a thriving local culture, beautiful surroundings, and direct access to Alicante and Benidorm — and Villajoyosa becomes an irresistible option.
