EMBLEM OF THE MEDITERRANEAN
Our Old Town
Declared Well of Cultural Interest, the Poble Antic (or Old Town) is presided over by the two characteristic blue tile domes that crown the Church of Our Lady of Consuelo. It is the most representative symbol of our people: «The Dome of the Mediterranean». And around it, multiple cobbled streets and houses with white facades. We suggest you get lost in these long-standing vericuets.

OLD RURAL FARMHOUSE
Integrated in the tradition of our town
Our unique building, converted into a hotel and restaurant, held the olive oil mill activity in the center of a rural place with olive, almond and orange trees. It was a typical altean farmhouse, now converted into a hospitality establishment that cares for the legacy of our ancestors. 500 meters from the Old Town of Altea and 1.5 km. from Altea beach, our hotel is integrated into the Altean landscape as a holdover from bygone days.
