Spanish roads are built for cyclists and one thing that will strike you straight away, especially if you are traveling from the UK, is how few potholes there are in comparison with UK roads. Smooth, traffic free tarmac roads wind their way through picturesque valleys dotted with picture perfect Spanish villages, and up mountains dominated by balcony roads with switchbacks to make that perfect holiday picture or selfie.
All that cycling is usually ridden under the famous Mediterranean sunshine which shines for 325 days a year on the Cost a Blanca in this corner of Spain and so it’s not hard to see why cyclists flock to Spain’s Costa Blanca to ride that cycling dream. If you choose to enjoy a road cycling holiday in Spain with us here at Blanca Bikes, you can enjoy iconic climbs, quiet roads and routes ridden by the pros who you will see out and about during the late autumn, winter, and spring.

The way the hotel is designed and how we create our cycling holiday packages means we can offer holidays for individuals, couples, small groups, or entire cycling clubs or pro-riding teams. Many of the elements of your package, such as bike hire, are priced per person, whilst other elements, such as hiring a cycle guide, are a flat fee for up to eight riders. We can therefore offer discounts per person based on larger groups, and we can also accommodate those wishing to have a room on their own by including a single room supplement without any further increase in costs.

You have probably heard about the famous cycling routes around Costa Blanca, especially if you watch the Vuelta a España. You will be staying with us in Javea (Xabia), which is right at the heart of all these great rides, including Coll de Rates, Cumbre del Soll, Jalon Valley, Mirador del Xap, Val de Ebo, Puerto de Bernia, and many, many more. From our hotel to the foot of the Coll de Rates climb is just 16 miles; the summit of Val de Ebo is just a 28-mile ride; and Xalo is less than 15 miles away. You can even be at the foot of Cumbre del Soll in 25 minutes of riding, as it’s just 5 miles away. A 35-mile ride will take you up Coll de Rates and down to Guadalest, so nothing is out of your reach.
Staying with us in Javea (Xabia) means you have breathtaking rides in all directions—not just one road in and one road out—and if you include our guided cycling in your holiday package, you will get to see everything the area has to offer.
Your stay with us includes breakfast. For groups of 8 or more, we can also arrange for our professional chefs to prepare a 3-course traditional evening meal for you in our dining area at the hotel – perfect if you just want to come back to the hotel, relax, unwind, and dine.
At the time of writing, evening meals are approximately 20 euros per head and can be booked for a single evening or multiple evenings of your stay. If you prefer to stretch your legs in the evening, Javea (Xabia) has an abundance of bars and restaurants at almost every price point, so you can grab a quick value meal or spend the entire evening experiencing some of the local cuisines in one of the many superb restaurants.
