Where to stay in L'Alfàs del Pi
L'Alfàs del Pi is a small town, so staying close to the centre puts you within easy reach of the local markets. Try Town Centre for a convenient base, or head a short drive down to Albir, the coastal strip that has more hotel options and a lively atmosphere.
If you prefer a quieter spot with easy access to both the town and the beach, La Nucía Road Area offers a good middle ground. Altea and Benidorm are also close by if you want more choice in accommodation.
