It is the perfect combination for living in the 21st century without turning our backs on our history.

Mediterranean-style villas tend to be dominated by the colour white, with lots of natural light coming in, maximising the hours of sunshine that abound in this area. Straight lines without excessive ornamentation tend to stand out.

Luxury villas with views of historic monuments

There are many monuments in Jávea that you can contemplate. Some are better known and others are a little hidden, but all of them endow the town with a unique personality that has been preserved over the centuries.

One of the proofs of Jávea’s evolution are the town walls. As an element of protection, in the 14th century, the walls were built to protect the town centre. Later on, in the 19th century, the fortress was extended, of which vestiges are still preserved due to their good state of conservation.

Along the same line of large constructions, we find the Riurau, a rectangular construction made of stone and masonry where the typical muscatel grape of the area was stored. If you wander around Jávea, you will also find other historical monuments that have lost their original use, such as the old pharmacy Ca Lambert or the Central Cinema.
