Holidays in Spain, villa for rent in Ontinyent, inland Costa Blanca

location

Close to the old village of Onteniente there is Castle - Oasis. The distance to the airports of Alicante or Valencia is approximately 85 km and easy reachable by motorways. The probably best beach of the Costa Blanca is the Grau de Gandia beach. A short trip of 45 km on a recently new built road gives you an idea of the beautiful area as well as the 20 km beach of Gandia.

Surrounding Onteniente there are very scenic villages like Bocaraint, well known because of its antic character. 

Onteniente is are inland in the Community of Valencia where water is born, where the stones know stories, where it  is still possible to go for a walk in the sunset and get away from it all. Ontinyent exists in a valley between mountains, at the junction between the roads of the plateau and the Mediterranean shelf.

Moors and Christians fought for centuries to get control of this place. The record of these episodes continues today and it's represented in one of the most spectacular fiestas that you can attend in the last days of August.

The majesty of this arid land offers the visitor a panorama of rugged landscape interspersed by the colours of almond and fruit trees.

Ontinyent works, sleeps and develops, almost unnoticed, in the Clariano basin, which divides the valley into two parts.

Now, it's the time to enjoy a peaceful visit, to be overcome by its charm and finish conquering a city, which never disappoints its visitors.
