Hotel Cap Negret
Altea | Costa Blanca
⭐⭐⭐⭐
The modern, glass-fronted Hotel Cap Negret sits right on the seafront just outside Altea, pairing a peaceful beachfront setting with big blue-sky views of the Mediterranean. A wide pool terrace, contemporary rooms and friendly service make it an easy choice if you want to slow the pace without being far from the white-washed old town. Add in a small spa, great cycling facilities and a choice of restaurants and bars, and you have a Costa Blanca retreat that works as well for active couples as it does for relaxed family escapes.
Wake up to the sound of waves and panoramic sea views at Hotel Cap Negret, a stylish beachfront hideaway on the edge of Altea. The sweeping pool terrace faces the Mediterranean, there are chic chill-out corners shaded by palms, and contemporary rooms come with those all-important mod cons and breezy balconies or terraces. Spend days between the pebbly beach and the freshwater pool, then wander into Altea’s old town for cobbled streets, white-washed houses and sunset views from the blue-domed church.
For couples and families seeking Costa Blanca’s authentic charm over the big-resort buzz, Hotel Cap Negret delivers the perfect balance: a quiet beachfront setting, a spacious pool terrace and easy access to Altea’s atmospheric old town.

Location
Hotel Cap Negret sits in a privileged beachfront spot just north of Altea, with the shimmering Mediterranean on one side and green hills on the other. You’re close enough to stroll into town yet far enough from the centre to keep things calm and easy-going.
Follow the promenade to discover Altea’s white-washed old quarter, blue-domed church and pretty plazas, or head along the coast to Calpe for its famous rock and sandy beaches. With cycling routes and walking trails weaving through nearby orchards and pine groves, it’s also a great base if you like to mix sunbathing with a little exploration.
