Villajoyosa FAQ
Is the Alicante Adventure Hunt an escape room?
The Alicante Adventure Hunts are not an escape room but it is a fun experience with similar challenges that need some teamwork and lateral thinking. It is very enjoyable for people who enjoy escape rooms. Everything takes place outside, at your own pace – there is no race against the clock. In fact, we encourage people to take a break for a drink or something to eat and enjoy the lovely surroundings that the Adventure Hunt is set in.
Is Adventure Hunt a walking tour of Alicante?
The Adventure Hunt in Alicante City takes you along the beautiful promenade and around the narrow streets of the fishing quarter, showing you some places that you were possibly not aware of. However, it is not a replacement for a historical or guided walk as the focus is on having fun rather than learning.
Is the Alicante city escape room experience suitable for families?
Ja, Adventure Hunt er perfekt for familier.
Er ledetrådene kompliserte?
Dette er et veldig vanskelig spørsmål! Det vi kan si, er at blant de 10 første testgruppene var det ikke ett eneste spor som alle gruppene opplevde som vanskelig. Hver gruppe syntes at et par av sporene var ganske utfordrende, men det var nesten alltid andre spor enn de de andre gruppene hadde valgt.
Vi kan derfor forsikre deg om at du ikke vil støte på noen umulige gåter.
Hvordan vinner jeg?
Det viktigste er å ha det gøy, så det er ingen grunn til å være altfor opptatt av poengsummen. Likevel har Adventure Hunt et poengsystem, der hvert ledetråd gir maksimalt 20 poeng. Samle så mange poeng som mulig mens du spiller Adventure Hunt, og konkurrer med venner og andre grupper.
Kan vi konkurrere mot en annen gruppe?
Live-resultater er tilgjengelige i Adventure Hunt-appen. På siden «Clue Completed» kan du se resultatene til alle som deltar i samme jakt som deg. Vi anbefaler en pause på 10 minutter mellom gruppene.
Ta kontakt med oss hvis dere har flere grupper. Vi kan sette opp en spesifikk konfigurasjon slik at alle gruppene deres kan starte på hver sin ledetråd samtidig.
Tilgjengelig på flere språk
The Villajoyosa Adventure Hunt is available in English, Spanish, German, Dutch, French, Italian and Portuguese.

About Villajoyosa
Situated along the crystal-clear Mediterranean is the charming town of Villajoyosa—affectionately known as La Vila. It is a colourful seaside town rich in history, culture, and coastal charm. Just a short tram ride from Benidorm and Alicante, it offers the perfect blend of authentic Valencian life and slow-paced holiday bliss. Its famously bright, multicoloured houses, golden beaches, and deep chocolate-making tradition give the town a personality that’s warm, lively, and unmistakably unique.
From strolling along its palm-lined promenade to exploring its ancient old town or sampling traditional dishes by the sea, Villajoyosa welcomes travellers looking for beauty, history, and a more peaceful escape from Spain’s busier coastal hotspots.
A TOWN PAINTED IN COLOUR AND HISTORY
Villajoyosa’s story reaches back over 3,000 years, with evidence of Iberian, Phoenician, Roman, and Moorish settlement. The Romans valued its strategic coastal position, leaving behind archaeological remains that hint at its importance as a port and trading hub. Later, during medieval times, the town fortified itself with walls and watchtowers to defend against pirate attacks—many of which still stand as reminders of its turbulent past.
Today, Villajoyosa blends this rich history with modern Mediterranean living. Its vibrant old quarter, bustling market, artisan bakeries, and traditional fishing port all contribute to the town’s warm, lived-in charm. And of course, Villajoyosa is the home of Valor, Spain’s most famous chocolate maker, filling the air with sweet aromas and offering a delicious taste of local heritage.
The town’s main central beach is its golden heart—wide, clean, and framed by colourful houses that look like a postcard brought to life. With calm turquoise waters and a relaxed atmosphere, it’s ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, or simply settling under a parasol with the sound of waves for company.
MUST-VISIT ATTRACTIONS AND HIDDEN GEMS IN VILLAJOYOSA
Playa de Villajoyosa & the Coloured Houses
Villajoyosa’s iconic seaside promenade is lined with tall, vividly painted buildings in every hue—said to help fishermen spot their homes from the sea. The wide sandy beach below is perfect for families, sunbathers, and anyone who loves an easygoing Mediterranean vibe.
Valor Chocolate Factory & Museum
A must for chocoholics! Take a guided tour to learn about the history of chocolate-making in the region, see production in action, and enjoy tastings of locally crafted dark, milk, and signature hot chocolate.
Old Town & Historic Walls
Wander through narrow, winding streets draped with flowers, colourful houses, and viewpoints overlooking the sea. Don’t miss the remnants of the old defensive walls and the Gothic church of Our Lady of the Assumption.
Surrounding Beaches & Coves
For those seeking quieter spots, Villajoyosa is full of hidden coves such as Racó del Conill, Bon Nou, and El Torres. Crystal-clear waters make these perfect for snorkelling, swimming, or escaping the crowds.
La Vila’s Fishing Port
Still one of the Costa Blanca’s most authentic ports, you can watch fishermen bring in their catch at dawn or enjoy incredibly fresh seafood in the restaurants nearby.
Vilamuseu (Municipal Museum)
A fascinating stop offering archaeological and cultural exhibitions—including treasures recovered from ancient shipwrecks off the Villajoyosa coast.
CELEBRATIONS IN VILLAJOYOSA
Moros y Cristianos (Moors and Christians Festival)
Held in late July, this is one of Spain’s most famous and spectacular Moros y Cristianos celebrations. Expect dazzling costumes, energetic parades, mock battles, fireworks, and the legendary Desembarco (The Landing), where boats arrive on the beach at dawn to reenact historical invasions.
Top tip: Arrive early for the landing—spots fill quickly, and the atmosphere is unforgettable.
Semana Santa (Holy Week)
Villajoyosa’s Easter processions bring together tradition, music, and community spirit, with beautifully decorated floats winding through the old town’s narrow streets.
Festes de Sant Antoni & Local Traditions
In winter, expect bonfires, dancing, and charming small-town celebrations that offer a glimpse into Villajoyosa’s deep-rooted customs.
Summer Concerts by the Sea
Throughout July and August, the town hosts free open-air concerts—usually in the old town, at the beach promenade, or near the auditorium—featuring flamenco, classical, pop, local bands, and festive community events under the warm night sky.
Outdoor Cinema on the Beach
During the summer, family-friendly movies and popular films are screened on Playa de Villajoyosa or Playa Torres. Bring a towel or chair, settle under the stars, and enjoy a relaxed Mediterranean movie night once the heat eases in the evening.
Highlights
Villajoyosa is a place where colour, culture, and coastline blend effortlessly. Whether you’re exploring ancient walls, tasting artisan chocolate, discovering hidden coves, or joining a lively festival, the town offers a perfect balance of relaxation and authenticity. Close enough to Benidorm and Alicante for easy day trips—but calm enough to feel like a true escape—La Vila invites you to slow down, savour its beauty, and enjoy the Mediterranean at its most charming and vibrant.
