This plot of 12,362 m² is located in Villajoyosa (La Vila Joiosa), in the province of Alicante. The site is situated in an urban coastal environment, providing direct access to local amenities and the marina. With an average annual temperature of 19.2°C and over 3,800 hours of sunshine per year, the location offers a distinct Mediterranean climate suitable for year-round residential development.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The plot is positioned directly opposite the elegant marina of Villajoyosa. This setting ensures a permanent urban context with sea views. The distance to the nearest beach (Platja Varador) is 1.8 km as the crow flies. The terrain is flat, situated at 37 meters above sea level, facilitating straightforward construction access.
For developers, this site offers the opportunity to build in a location where daily necessities are within walking distance. The proximity to a hospital (119 meters) and various supermarkets ensures a functional basis for future residents. The density of amenities in this radius supports a high-quality residential environment.
Urban planning regulations allow for a maximum building height of 4 storeys. The net surface area after road allowance is 9,773 m². The maximum occupancy rate is set at 30%, providing ample volume to construct a sizeable apartment complex with sea views in a prestigious area of the Costa Blanca.
This listing concerns the acquisition of land only; no residential units are immediately available. The developer must execute construction separately. The effective buildable area is less than the total plot size due to the required road widening. The site currently lacks developed gardens or swimming pools.
This plot is suitable for developers or investors seeking project land in an established coastal region. It fits parties capable of initiating a construction project, from permits to realization. It is not an option for individuals seeking a turnkey home, but rather for those aiming to create housing inventory in an area with high demand due to its climate and proximity to Benidorm and Alicante.
As this is development land, the finishing quality is to be determined by the future developer. Given the location on the Costa Blanca and proximity to luxury resorts, there is an implicit market standard to use materials resilient to the coastal climate and adhering to modern energy efficiency regulations.
The asking price for the plot is set at €7,250,000. This represents the land value exclusive of construction costs. The investment level reflects the coastal positioning and the development potential for a large-scale apartment complex.

Compared to projects in Benissa or Altea, which often focus on luxury villas on larger plots, this site in Villajoyosa offers a distinctly urban character. The price per square meter is higher than inland Alicante, justified by the walkability to amenities and the maritime setting. While comparable large plots in the northern areas of the province offer more isolation, this site targets a demographic seeking apartment living in a vibrant coastal town.
