Why this destination is a must-visit
Alcossebre: The best-kept secret of the Costa de Azahar
-
Springs in the Sand: At Playa de Las Fuentes, fresh water flows naturally from the seabed and the sand. These natural springs come from the Sierra de Irta, making the water cooler and less salty. It’s like swimming in a natural freshwater jacuzzi.
-
A Paradise Without Skyscrapers: Unlike Benidorm or Peñíscola, Alcossebre has preserved its low-rise charm. One of the few places where you can enjoy the Mediterranean without feeling surrounded by concrete.
-
The Sierra de Irta: One of the last untouched natural parks on the Mediterranean coast. 15 km of unspoilt coastline with no buildings, dotted with hidden coves and dramatic cliffs where the mountains meet the sea.
-
End-of-the-World Views: From the Ermita de Santa Lucía, perched 312 metres above sea level, you can spot the Columbretes Islands on clear days. Said to be one of the most breathtaking viewpoints in the entire Valencian Community.
-
A Pirate Past: The name comes from the Arabic Al-Qusayba ("little castle"). Watchtowers like Badum once warned of Berber pirate attacks that haunted these shores centuries ago.
-
A Volcanic Escape: From its harbour, you can join unforgettable trips to the Columbretes Islands, a volcanic archipelago now protected as a marine reserve, famously named by the Romans after the snakes they found there.
Costa de Azahar: Spain’s hidden coastal gem for a relaxing family getaway
Costa de Azahar is one of Spain’s most underrated coastal destinations, perfect for families and couples looking to enjoy the Mediterranean at a slower, more authentic pace.

Make sure you visit:
- Peñíscola’s old town, crowned by its iconic castle overlooking the Mediterranean.
- Castellón de la Plana, with its lively squares and local culture.
- Benicàssim’s seafront promenade, perfect for sunset walks.
- The Desert de les Palmes Natural Park, offering scenic views and nature trails.
- Oropesa del Mar’s marina and historic centre.
Beaches we think you’ll like:
- Playa Norte (Peñíscola): wide, sandy and with stunning castle views.
- Playa de la Concha (Oropesa del Mar): calm and ideal for families.
- Playa Heliópolis (Benicàssim): long, lively and well-equipped.
- Playa del Gurugú (Castellón): spacious and great for long walks.
- Cala del Pebret: a quieter, more natural option surrounded by nature.
Family-friendly activities:
- Explore Peñíscola Castle and its charming medieval streets.
- Cycle along coastal paths, safe and enjoyable for all ages.
- Visit water parks and leisure areas in Benicàssim and Oropesa.

Lo más destacado es la piscina al lado del mar, aunque hay que cruzar la carretera y el desayuno que es bastante completo y es bufete.
It would be appreciated to be able to choose a room when making the booking.
Se agradecería el poder elegir habitación al realizar la reserva.

Nos ha encantado todo. Destacamos especialmente el recibimiento de Jóse que fue muy agradable y simpático toda la semana con nosotros. Y el resto de personal también, contestaban de maravilla a nuestras preguntas sobre la zona. La habitación bonita y muy grande, con espacio para la ropa y cajones ok. Nos tocó una terrada de esquina grande que corría el fresquito. El aire acondicionado funcionaba genial. Nos estuvieron reponiendo el champú y el gel a menudo. El desayuno con bastantes opciones, aunque fueran las mismas toda la semana. La piscina frente al mar con muchísimas tumbonas, una pasada. La ubicación también buena, cerca de la curiosa playa de Las Fuentes (mal señalizada, es peligroso caerse en los agujeros de las fuentes, es un tema del ayuntamiento no del hotel, pero avisamos para que tengais cuidado). Gracias por todo. Muy buenas vacaciones.
We understand that the fridge didn’t cool very well and had very little space.
Que la nevera no enfriaba muy bien, de muy poca capacidad. Lo entendemos.

Sitio encantador por la tranquilidad y el ambiente tan relajado que se respira, muy aconsejable para relajarse y descansar , perfecta ubicación y un puntazo la piscina con vistas al mar
It would improve the breakfast buffet a little, include more variety and speed up the restocking of items that run out.
Mejoraría un poco el bufet del desayuno, incluiría más variedad y más rapidez a la hora de reponer lo agotado

Please provide gel and shampoo for two people. There was only enough for one person, but we went to the reception and they gave us more.

Las habitaciones y la terraza son muy grandes y espaciosas, disponen de nevera y varios sitios donde dejar la ropa o cosas incluyendo un escritorio muy amplio para teletrabajar. La ducha en presión y temperatura es genial, cosa que en ocasiones cuesta encontrar. La piscina tranquila y con agua de sal. El parking muy bien y con espacio siempre sin coste. La ubicación tranquila y se descansa genial teniendo el centro bastante cerca.
The room’s TV is too small and placed in a rather ordinary spot; it would benefit from a few more hangers as there were very few. There is no lifeguard at the pool and after 23:00h nothing is open to buy, in addition to which dinners are not offered. The midday menu seemed a bit expensive at €24, so we did not stay to eat any day. The breakfast was quite ample but had little variety of hot dishes.
La TV de la habitación es demasiada pequeña y ubicada en un sitio regular, incluiría alguna percha más ya que fueron muy escasas. No hay socorrista en la piscina y a partir de las 23:00 nada abierto para comprar, además de que no dan cenas. El menú de mediodía nos pareció algo caro 24€ por lo que no nos quedamos a comer ningún día. El desayuno era bastante amplio pero poca variedad de comida caliente.

La zona, cerca de todo pero sin agobios ni masificaciones, la vista del hotel y la zona piscina y cesped
In general, fine, but the quality of the mattresses is very poor, we haven't been able to sleep for 3 days, the fridge in the room didn't cool anything (not even 3 bottles of water) and the shower head sprayed water everywhere except downwards, otherwise... fine.
En general bien, pero la calidad de los colchones es muy mala, no hemos podido dormir en 3 días, la nevera de la habitación no enfriaba nada (nin3 botellitas de agua) y la alcachofa de la ducha tiraba el agua hacia todos los lados menos hacia abajo, por lo demás... bien

La limpieza, dentro de que está anticuado está todo muy limpio
Double curtains are unnecessary, some antique chairs, and cushions with only double pillows would make it look like another room.
Sobran las dobles cortinas, alguna silla antigua, y cojines solo con las almohadas dobles parecería otra habitación.

La ubicación frente al mar y muy cerca de la Cala Blanca y de la playa de Las Fuentes, Hotel muy tranquilo con parking gratuito para sus clientes.
In room 404 on the 4th floor, on its small terrace with views when standing, you can see the sea in the corner, there is no clothesline for the pool clothes, and the air conditioning unit in that room was very noisy.
Que en la habitación 404 del 4º piso en su mini terraza con vistas si estas de pie y en la esquina se ve el mar y no dispone de tendedero para la ropa de la piscina y el aparato del aire acondicionado de esa habitación hacia mucho ruido,
