Costa Nova — area guide

An area of Jávea (Xàbia), Costa Blanca

An established sea-view villa area ("Costa Nova" / La Marina) on pine-clad slopes overlooking the rocky Montañar/Cala Blanca coast — villas and some low-rise apartments terraced to face the sea, a short drive to both the Arenal sand and the southern coves.

Quick answers

Does every villa in Costa Nova have a sea view? No — and the market prices the difference sharply. The ridge faces the water, so views are common, but pine cover, plot position and neighbouring rooflines decide each case individually. Views range from full-horizon panoramas to framed glimpses. Judge each property on its own terrace, at the time of day you'll use it most.

Can I live in Costa Nova without a car? Realistically, no. The gradients, distances and absence of pavements make walking impractical for daily needs, and most households run two cars. A handful of restaurants and services sit along the Cap de la Nau road, but shops, schools and the town all require driving. Budget for the car as part of the lifestyle.

Is Costa Nova lively in winter? Quiet, in the best and worst senses. A solid core of year-round residents keeps parts of the ridge alive, while other lanes are mostly second homes that sleep from November. The coves and cliff walks are glorious and empty. If winter company matters, check the specific street's occupancy before you buy.
