Welcome to Casa Mecenas

Welcome to the website of Casa Mecenas.

As private owners, we place our house at your disposal, if we don't use it ourselves.

But – what makes us different? Learn more and decide for yourself!

 

 

Nestled in the valley of the nature reserve Montgó between Jesus Pobre and La Xara, our house "Casa Mecenas" is located at the bottom end of the urbanisation of La Sella.

 

La Sella is one of the oldest and most popular urbanisations on the Costa Blanca. Mainly inhabited by residents, you will find here a quiet coexistence away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist resorts.

 

The urbanisation has its own infrastructure (supermarket, pharmacy, restaurants, etc.) and a 24-hour security service. You will also find large supermarkets in the vicinity and a wide range of products beyond daily needs in Denia, which is about 5 miles away.

 

The detached house is situated at the end of a
short dead-end street and is therefore very quiet.
The surroundings are characterised by international and long-term residents.

 

Fully fenced, the house has its own parking space for your car.

 

The house was completely renovated and modernised in late 2015, including a very low-power heat pump air conditioning system.

The ground floor comprises the living area with modern leather furniture, a large flat screen TV
with German, English and international channels,
air conditioning and heating.

You will also find here the dining area, equipped to a high standard and with the possibility of having a little snack at the bar.

The house is complemented by a comfortable, covered terrace, which is shaded by a fan palm and entwined with bougainvillea. 

Here you can have breakfast or enjoy cosy evenings with a barbecue or some wine.

The kitchen is fully equipped with electrical appliances of the latest generation: stove, oven, coffee-machine, espresso-machine, smoothie-maker, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer, and washing machine will ensure you a comfortable stay.

You want or need to stay online while on vacation? There is WiFi via radio relay (10 GB/s) all over the house. Or just lock up your laptop, smartphone or other valuables in the safe in the hallway.

The 1st floor offers three bedrooms: The first one is equipped with a 6 ft wide double bed, a 7 ft fitted wardrobe, air conditioning/heating, and a terrace overlooking the urbanisation, the golf course and the pool area.

The second one contains a 5.2 ft wide double bed, 7 ft fitted wardrobe and air conditioning/heating.

The third bedroom is designed as a backup.
Are you feeling uncomfortable? Is your partner snoring? You can find peace on the sofa bed.
This space is well suited as a reading room. Furthermore, there is additional storage space
in the fitted wardrobe. If required, the existing
in-house cot can be set up here.

The upstairs bathroom has a bath / shower and plenty of room for all your utensils.

 

The roof deck offers you one thing first and foremost: all around views!

 

On the left you can see the sea, which is about three miles away ... 

... and on the right you can see the internationally renowned 27-hole golf course, which is only about 200 yards away. You can also make out the nature reserve of the 2,470 feet high Montgó at a distance.

There is more than enough space here: Whether you want to relax on one of the sun loungers (with icebox in the table) or chill in a hammock - here you get the sun all day!

You wish to find some relief from the sun’s heat? The non-public pool is just a few yards away and, being available only for five houses, it is really private and never crowded    

Actually, you only need to bring your personal belongings for your stay.

 

Everything else is available:

- Bed linen incl.  spare set

- 8 towels

- 4 bath towels

- Kitchen towels

- Plenty of dishes, glasses, etc.

If you need to safely store your sport accessories, such as bicycles, golf equipment or surfboards, there is a lockable storage room on the back of the house, which can only be accessed by you.

During your stay you can enjoy diverse activities in and around La Sella.

 

In the urbanisation itself, there is a tennis facility with five courts, clubhouse and floodlight ...

... beside a horse farm where you can also take riding lessons or ride horses in the countryside or on the beach. The Spanish horses are considered to be particularly sure-footed and to master even the toughest terrain with casual elegance.

 

However, the representative of this race shown in the picture is not available. It is our PRE stallion ‘Mecenas’, after whom our house was named.

The internationally renowned golf course La Sella Golf, a 27-hole course, is just a few yards away from the house.

The long beaches of the Costa Blanca are about 5 miles away.

 

In addition to a long stretch of fine white sand ...

there are secluded little bays to withdraw to.    

For those who prefer to spend their time under water, no problem! There are excellent diving locations nearby.

Even if you walk, you will get your money’s worth:

The mountain belonging to the urbanisation has just been developed into an extensive, well-signposted hiking area.

In the vicinity, there are many more possibilities to enjoy extensive hikes and walks.

And if that is not enough: The area around Denia and La Sella is an El Dorado for cyclists! Whether racing, mountain or touring bike – there is something for everyone. In the mountains, on the beach or on flat bike paths – the Spanish love cycling!

Speaking of Denia: The town of about 40,000 inhabitants offers during your vacation everything you might want to enjoy outside the house or urbanisation during your vacation: water sports, numerous shops and a lively nightlife. In addition, there are more than 300 excellent restaurants from simple tapas bars to 3-star restaurants.

The 4-day Fiesta "Moros y Cristianos" in honour of San Roque and commemorating the Reconquista will be held in mid-August – a spectacle with show fights, fireworks and parades that you should not miss!

For those who like it slightly larger: In nearby Villena, the Fiesta takes place in early September, featuring more than 10,000 performers!
