Finca El Pao
, Torremanzanas (CV-780), Near Jijona.
Finca El Pao is a delicious little country bed-and-breakfast in the hills of Alicante, just a 25 minute drive from the beaches of the Costa Blanca. Set in it's own little 4 hectare estate, El Pao is surrounded by terraces of olive and almond trees. For maximum peace and quiet, the hotel is limited to adults only.
The spacious garden has a large swimming pool and lots of places to relax and enjoy the 360° views of rural Spain. There is also a little wellness centre with a sauna and a variety of massages and treatments. Don't forget too, the jacuzzi: a super little spot to relax on a warm evening as the sun goes down.
Inside there are large and small lounges, a dining room and even a little billiard room with pool table. It's comfortable year-round with natural air-conditioning and underfloor heating and a fireplace for the winter.
Many people will come here just to relax. Others will come for the walking as the hotel is set between the mountains of Peña de Mijorn and Peña Roja and the natural park of Cabeço d’Or. For guests of a more adventurous nature, owner Joris can guide you towards horse-riding, mountain-biking, scuba diving, canyoning, paragliding, sailing or speed-boating.

Reviews from Little Hotels Travellers:
We had a lovely stay in Finca El Pao in Spain, close to Alicante. It is a lovely place, very quiet, and a fantastic view on the landscape around the house. |
Rachel and I had a wonderful stay at Finca el Pao.
Thank you for all your assistance- the driving directions were excellent and the Finca could not have been more perfect.
Pascal and Joris are wonderful hosts, eating on your own terrace in the evening was wonderful and so relaxing, as was our entire stay. Thanks so much. |
