Altea is one of the Costa Blanca's most charming towns. Its whitewashed old quarter climbs to the blue-domed church of Nuestra Señora del Consuelo, and its cobbled streets are lined with galleries, boutiques and restaurants. Altea Hills is among the area's most sought-after residential areas, close to the beach, the town centre and golf. The seafront promenade, marina and the year-round mild climate add to its appeal, and Alicante airport is within easy reach for flights back to the UK.
