Mis à jour le : November 17, 2025

You are responsible :

The person booking the rental for a specific period is the “responsible” tenant. This person must be at least 21 years old and not under legal guardianship. You are responsible for the behavior of all your guests and any pets. Make them aware of the need to respect the villa and safety instructions. In the event of damage caused by you or one of your guests, you are civilly liable. You will be responsible for the cost of repairs. For fire safety reasons, the number of guests may not exceed the maximum capacity of the accommodation, i.e. 6 people. In the event of non-compliance, the owner may also terminate your stay without notice or refund. Subletting is prohibited, even free of charge, under penalty of immediate termination of the contract and subject to legal proceedings. The rented premises are for vacation use only, excluding any professional, commercial, or craft activity of any kind.

In case of an accident or concern :

Please contact us as soon as possible so that we can assess the situation and decide together on the steps to be taken. The owner cannot be held liable in the event of improper use of the vacation villa or the equipment provided.

La sécurité des enfants :

Your children are unfamiliar with this new house and its potential dangers. A good practice is to walk around with them and remind them of the basic rules:

  • Do not run around the pool.
  • Do not play with the doors.
  • Do not eat on the sofa.
  • Do not leave your children unattended at any time.

Cigarette and fire :

Smoking is strictly prohibited inside the house. Smoking outside is permitted, but cigarette butts must not be thrown away but collected in the ashtray provided. It is strictly forbidden to light a fire anywhere on or around the property at any time of year.

Bedding :

For obvious hygiene reasons, it is forbidden to sleep in beds without protecting them.

Save energy :

The supply of water, electricity (with a limit), air conditioning, and heating is included in the price per night. Except for long stays. Regarding electricity, a limit of 20 kWh per day applies. If this limit is exceeded, a surcharge per KW will be charged. Be proactive in your use of air conditioning or heating. Avoid opening windows when the air conditioning/heating is running. Remember to turn it off or turn it down when you are away. Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Be sure to regulate your water consumption. …in short, all those little everyday gestures that you are familiar with and that still apply when you are on vacation. If there is proven abuse of these resources, you will be charged in full.

Animals :

Our animal friends weighing less than 10kg are accepted subject to the prior agreement of the owner, who may refuse the animal in the event of disturbance or safety issues. Animals must not be left alone in the villa, even in a cage. Outside, they must be kept on a leash and any waste must be picked up. Please be mindful of children playing on the ground! Pets are allowed inside the villa but must not come into contact with bedding or sofas. Do not exceed the number of pets allowed. If you exceed this number, your stay may be terminated without notice or compensation.

Upon departure :

You are required to return the accommodation in a clean and tidy condition. A cleaning fee of €180 will be charged. Even though the cleaning service is mandatory, please remember to:

  • Clean and put away the dishes.
  • Clean the appliances.
  • Dispose of your trash in the bins provided near the villa.
  • Return any furniture that has been moved to its original location.
  • Leave the bathrooms in a clean condition.
  • Strip the beds and fold the sheets.

The pool :

Use of the swimming pool is entirely at the tenant’s own risk. Children must be supervised by an adult at all times when in the pool. All users of the pool must be covered by liability insurance and acknowledge that the owners accept no responsibility for the safety of any persons participating in the stay. As the swimming pool is private, its use is reserved exclusively for members of the owners’ family, their friends, and tenants staying in the villa. Babies must wear special swim diapers. They must be supervised by a responsible adult who can swim (to avoid any risk of accidents, we ask you to pay particular attention to young children). Children must not be left alone by the pool under any circumstances.

It is prohibited to:

  • Using soap or any other similar product in the pool.
  • Shouting and playing rough games around and in the pool.
  • Urination in the water.
  • Throwing objects, stones, or anything else into the water. (Any damaged or destroyed equipment will be charged to the person responsible).
  • Running around the pool (risk of slipping and/or injury).
  • It is strictly forbidden to enter the technical room and touch the electrical installations.
  • Eating, drinking, or smoking in the pool area.
  • Allowing animals to swim.

Activités et attractions

rocher El Peñon de Ifach

Climb the iconic rock of El Peñon de Ifach

If you had to choose one thing to do during your stay in Calpe, it would definitely be climbing El Peñon de Ifach to enjoy a majestic sunset. This rock is no less than 332 m high and was declared a nature reserve, “Parque Natural del Peñon de Ifach,” in 1987. In the park, you can enjoy the local flora and fauna, with around 300 different plants and 80 species of birds nesting here.

Well-maintained hiking trails allow you to easily climb the rock. At some point, you will reach a tunnel, after which the route becomes a little more adventurous. You can stop here to admire the view of Calpe or continue climbing the rocks along the steep sides of the cliffs.

Enjoy the beaches of Calpe

The beaches of Calpe are the cornerstone of its charm. They offer a perfect mix of natural beauty, relaxation, and water activities. You will find vast sandy beaches, rockier beaches with slightly rougher waters, and small hidden coves. Ultimately, everyone will benefit!

Also, because the coast of Calpe is surrounded by two rocks, it is the ideal place for water sports enthusiasts who want to try their hand at catamaran sailing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, or diving.

Calpe’s culinary scene is a delicious celebration of fresh seafood and traditional Spanish flavors. Local restaurants, ranging from cozy taverns to elegant dining establishments, offer a variety of dishes showcasing the best of Mediterranean cuisine.

La Muralla Roja

Marvel at La Muralla Roja

A number of traveling photographers come to Calpe to discover an architectural gem: La Muralla Roja. You will quickly understand why when you see the photo below.

In the 1960s and 1980s, Ricardo Bofill designed numerous postmodern buildings along the coast of Calpe, such as La Muralla Roja, Xanadú, and El Anfiteatro.

One of its most iconic buildings is the strange La Muralla Roja apartment complex. When designing this building, Bofill drew inspiration from the Kasbah, a traditional building constructed in an oasis in Morocco, adding his own avant-garde touch.

Please feel free to contact your host for advice on visits and excursions suitable for all ages.
