Nestled in the photogenic La Higuera Cove, Hotel Masa International is a stylish hotel with a classic aesthetic.

A finca is a Spanish country estate, and there’s something of that feel to this rural resort – the views over the surrounding olive groves and farmland confirm this.

Not every day do you get to stay in a palace dating from 1755, but that’s what’s on offer at the Sercotel Palacio de Tudemir.

This ethos is maintained in the beautiful restaurant, too, where Valencian cuisine is elevated to a fine art. The octopus salad comes particularly recommended here.
