Although figures were the second best in the last ten years, they went down over three points compared to last year.

According to hotel management data (Hosbec), the data for 2018 reflect an average occupancy of 78%, similar to 2017 and in both cases well above occupancy of previous years.

This slight decrease was the same for all categories of hotels in almost all localities. As in previous years, Finestrat had the highest occupancy rate, followed by Calpe and Alfaz del Pi.

By months, February, November and December were the ones that increased the most, revealing a tendency to visit the Costa Blanca as a winter tourist destination too

The country of origin of most visitors was Spain with 56.6% and a growth of 0.9%. The United Kingdom maintains second place with 14.5% of the market, but falling by 0.7%. The rest of the main country of origins to visit Spain continue previous year trends in decreasing order: Norway, Belgium, Holland, France, Germany, Sweden, Poland, Italy and Russia.

The fashionable couple, Blanca Suarez and Mario Casas, enjoy the summer on the Costa Blanca

Both actors spend their summer in Alicante as they publish on their social networks, although they show photographs separately, as they have always been discreet when it comes to exposing their moments of personal life with their partners.

Blanca Suarez has chosen to pose in the pool and gardens of the Asia Gardens Hotel in Finestrat (Alicante), an authentic paradise of Asian inspiration in one of the most coveted enclaves of the Mediterranean.

Mario Casas is shown, in addition to the forementioned hotel, in a video in the restaurant Quique DaCosta in Denia (Alicante), a 3 Michelin Stars restaurant recently selected in the ninth place of the Best European Restaurants (according to the prestigious blog Opinated About Dining).

The town of Finestrat is located at the foot of the Puig Campana, the second most important peak in the province of Alicante, with 1,406 meters of height.

From the town, the bustle of the coast is very far and its town center keeps the flavor of its rural origins, seasoned with a strong force of tourism.

The municipality can be the ideal gateway and perfect complement for a visit to the theme park of Terra Mítica, outstanding tourist resource of the region in which it is located.

La Caleta and its surrounding Cala Charco and Racó del Conill constitute a mosaic of more or less inaccessible places and this unique stretch of coast.

La Caleta is the closest to the well-known urbanization called Montíboli. Next to the small beach is one of the best known luxury hotels of Villajoyosa.

Towards the south, next to the Torre del Xarco is the namesake cove, competing in beauty and gaining in quiet to his located sisters to the north of Montiboli: Bon Nou and Paraís beaches.

If we are still willing to bet harder we can win with enjoyment for the senses than the small and abrupt coves of the Racó del Conill and Cala Fonda. The beach is located about three kilometers from the urban area in the north, towards Benidorm. It is difficult to access what almost guarantees a bath alone on a stormy cliff coast.
