Vall de Pop hill village near Benissa/Calpe: vineyard valleys, Coll de Rates views, and calm year-round life—better value than the coast with beaches 25–30 minutes away.
Facts

Expect strong inland value around €3,008/m² (Indomio, Aug 2025) across renovated village houses, fincas, and small urbanisations. Daily needs are in the pueblo and nearby Xaló/Jalón; bigger retail and healthcare are in Dénia, Calpe, and Benissa. Alicante–Elche airport ~65–70 min via AP-7.
