The Norwegian community is strong, Spanish life still dominates. Best for buyers who want Benidorm&#039;s infrastructure without Benidorm&#039;s density.&quot;},{&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;alfas-del-pi&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Alf\\u00e0s del Pi&quot;,&quot;tier2_filter&quot;:&quot;Alf\\u00e0s del Pi&quot;,&quot;tagline&quot;:&quot;A bilingual hill town between Benidorm and Altea.&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Alf\\u00e0s del Pi is one of Spain&#039;s most international municipalities \\u2014 close to a third of residents are foreign, with a particularly strong Norwegian presence. A small old town, modern villa areas around it, and the Albir beach below. Walkable scale, the calmest pocket of the central Costa Blanca.&quot;},{&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;polop&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Polop&quot;,&quot;tier2_filter&quot;:&quot;Polop&quot;,&quot;tagline&quot;:&quot;An inland village under the mountains, twelve minutes from the sea.&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Polop sits beneath the Sierra Aitana \\u2014 old plaza, a hilltop castle ruin, mountain spring water that&#039;s been bottled here for decades. Small but lively, with a strong international scene tucked into the country villas around it. Twelve minutes from the Albir\\\/Altea beaches.&quot;},{&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;benissa&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Benissa&quot;,&quot;tier2_filter&quot;:&quot;Benissa&quot;,&quot;tagline&quot;:&quot;Old market town inland; cliff coves on the coast.&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Benissa is split \\u2014 a stone old town on a hill inland (markets, restaurants, real Spanish life) and a quieter coastline of cliff coves between Calpe and Moraira (high-end villas, no high-rises by ordinance). One of the few municipalities where you genuinely choose between village or sea.&quot;},{&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;denia&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;D\\u00e9nia&quot;,&quot;tier2_filter&quot;:&quot;D\\u00e9nia&quot;,&quot;tagline&quot;:&quot;A working harbour, a Michelin star, the ferry to Ibiza.&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;D\\u00e9nia is a real working town with a Michelin-starred restaurant, a daily fish market, year-round life, and a ferry that goes to Ibiza in two hours. The castle dominates the centre; Las Marinas runs north along sand, Las Rotas south along rocky coves. Premium villas, mid-priced apartments. Valencia airport 90 minutes.&quot;},{&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;guadalest&quot;,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Guadalest&quot;,&quot;tier2_filter&quot;:&quot;Guadalest&quot;,&quot;tagline&quot;:&quot;A village built into a cliff \\u2014 and one of Spain&#039;s most-photographed views.&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Guadalest is technically inland \\u2014 an hour up the mountains from Benidorm \\u2014 a tiny village clinging to a cliff above a turquoise reservoir, a castle ruin on top, one of Spain&#039;s most-photographed views. Almost no permanent property turnover, but worth knowing as the day-trip that anchors the inland Costa Blanca for so many buyers.&quot;}]'>\n          <a
