Now more than ever your home is your ultimate haven, but Residential Resort Cumbre del Sol is much more than that: a true paradise where you can live your new life surrounded by nature, with sea views and the utmost exclusivity. And now that we can enjoy the outdoors again, both in moderation and responsibly, it is also the perfect place, thanks to the idyllic surroundings and contrasts that surround it such as Moraig Cove or the Granadella Natural Park. But the location of Cumbre del Sol also makes it the best setting to enjoy the leisure of the Costa Blanca. Read on and discover your perfect plan for this weekend just a few minutes’ drive from your home.
One of the best options in Alicante is Muelle12, a space designed for the use and enjoyment of outdoor shows and gastronomy with all the proper security measures in place. Among its cultural offering, we find a wide variety for all tastes and ages: comedy, concerts, theater or dance. In addition, you can also enjoy its Food Market, with gluten-free and vegan options, and with the best flavors of the most emblematic gastronomic cultures: Asian spirit, spicy Mexican, healthy Mediterranean style or the tasty American burger and ribs. Don’t miss out on your ticket! Show and event times are scheduled so you can meet the restrictions.
Movie lovers have it easy: visit the Drive In. Enjoying the latest releases from your car is not only the most comfortable option, but also the safest. Drive in also offers you the opportunity to order dinner, with a delicious menu of sandwiches, hamburgers, pizzas or starters and, of course, even dessert. In addition, other benefits of the drive-in movie theater is the possibility of attending movies in original version with Spanish subtitles.
Another perfect option for a date for two or for the whole family is mini golf. In Altea, specifically in Albir Beach, you will find Mundi Golf Happy Days! with a representation of the most important monuments in the world: from the Eiffel Tower, to the Brussels Atomium or the Puerta del Alcalá. After a couple of holes, you can enjoy your favorite drink or even order from the food menu at the beachfront cafeteria – you’ll feel right at home!
And if you have always been attracted by adventures and mind games, we recommend you book an escape room. If you’re not sure about what this activity consists of, what are you waiting for? Select your most clever friends and get ready to lock yourself in a room and overcome a series of tests to escape in a set amount of time. At La fábrica, Altea, they offer all kinds of themes to do as a couple, in a group or with children, such as Harry’s Labyrinth, inspired by the mysterious world of magic.
We hope we have helped you find your perfect plan for a special day out. Remember that at VAPF we always like to keep you informed of all the cultural and gastronomic offerings in the area so that you can enjoy your new life to the fullest.

Therefore, in the catalogue we offer you a brief summary with geographical and weather data that will surely make your selection process easier. In addition, we provide you with information about places of tourist interest close by the apartments and villas for each development, because our surroundings are more important than we think!

Because that’s another question we can help you answer. To make everything easier, the catalogue includes an illustration with each of the services and amenities that the villas and apartments have.
Sauna, jacuzzi, gym, garage, caretaker… There are essentials that you will want your new home to include and that, fortunately, many of our developments incorporate.

It has not been an easy year for anyone. Starting with the health sector, various sectors have seen their activity reduced or interrupted. This was true for the cleaning, transport, food and hospitality sectors.
The latter has had great difficulty in recent months in resuming its activity and making it profitable and comparable to the rhythm of work prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. On-site consumption in bars, restaurants and other catering establishments has clearly been affected by the health situation. There have been many weeks in which opening the doors was not an option.
Fortunately, and as a response to this unviable situation, businesses have been able to adapt and find other ways to offer their services and continue working, always respecting health and safety measures. In this sense, take-out has kept many businesses going.
But in this equation, businesses can’t make it happen without customers. Therefore, as a supportive initiative and to encourage the purchase of takeaway, many town councils have distributed information about the bars and restaurants that offer a take-out option to residents.
This is the case for Poble Nou de Benitatxell, where the Residential Resort Cumbre del Sol is located. Here, the council has distributed a leaflet with contact information for those establishments with takeaway service. In fact, one of them is Como en casa, the Mediterranean cuisine restaurant in our Sports Area.
In Benissa, where our Galeno Villas development is located, the town hall has also made a compilation with all the restaurants and bars that offer meals for pick up at the establishment or home delivery by appointment. In this case, the offer is very varied: from tapas restaurants to pizzerias, being supportive has never been so easy!
And there’s more: Teulada Moraira town council has also joined this supportive network by giving its bars and restaurants the opportunity to advertise on its website, as well as offering their residents information about it. The initiative, called ‘ Teulada Moraira at your table’, brings together all the information on cuisine options that Teulada Moraira residents can enjoy from their homes.
Workout at home
Beyond gastronomy and, as resident, being able to help the hotel and catering sector, there are also other initiatives in which we can collaborate during the pandemic.
One of them is sport. Have you also joined the fitness movement that got underway during the State of Alarm? Many people started to exercise at home accompanied by professionals on the screen. In Benissa, they have set up their own online classes! The municipal swimming pool offers total training, GAP, bodypower, hiit… there’s no excuse not to get fit!
There’s less and less time now before restrictions become a thing of the past. But in the meantime, as we have discussed, there are many ways to be supportive and help ease the burden for those who are having a harder time now… You can also check our blog regularly and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to find out all about the initiatives being launched near you. Every little bit counts, are you ready to help?

One of the best features of this small corner along the Mediterranean coast is undoubtedly its delicious gastronomy. And you know what the best thing is? You can enjoy it without having to leave your home at Residential Resort Cumbre del Sol. Take note!
If you are a cook, we’ll tell you about a couple of recipes from the local gastronomy so you can enjoy all the flavours of the Mediterranean! The key is to always choose the best raw materials on the market. Some time ago we told you about some typical Benitatxell dishes and we also shared some of the area’s recipes with you. Today we want to introduce you to some more in detail so you can make them at home.
As for the main cuisine, we tell you how to prepare a tuna belly ratatouille, also known in the area as Mullador de Bull. To make the recipe for 4 people you will need a large piece of dried tuna belly, 2 onions, 4 tomatoes, olive oil and sweet paprika. The preparation is quite simple. Desalt the tuna belly by soaking it for three hours. Then, cut it into small pieces. Cut the vegetables in the same way after peeling them. Sauté everything in a pot with hot oil and let it simmer for 30 minutes. And that delicious ratatouille is ready!
And for dessert, we offer step-by-step instructions on how to make something as sweet and typical as pumpkin fritters, a delicious dish to continue our gastronomic journey! For 4 people you will need half a kilo of pumpkin, 50 grams of baker’s yeast, 200 grams of flour, sugar to taste and sunflower oil. The first step is to peel the pumpkin and boil it in water. Then mash it by adding both the flour and the yeast. The latter must be put in lukewarm water until it is slightly undone. Let the mixture stand for at least one hour. Then, in a pot or pan with the oil already hot, add small portions of the dough in the shape of fritters. Once they are fried, remove them from the heat and dip them in sugar, and enjoy this explosion of flavour for your palate!
Both of these recipes provide a burst of new flavors. However, whether you like cooking or not, it is also a good time to help the catering industry! One way to do this is to order take-out or have it delivered so you can enjoy it from the comfort of your own home. At Antiquary, you can enjoy freshly made pizzas and delicious pasta. Lovers of oriental food will be delighted with the taste of Beniasia’s dishes. You can also order food at El raconet de Celeste. And if you are looking for homemade food, there’s nothing like ordering at Como en casa. You can find all the info about the establishments here.
As you can see, there are many ways to enjoy the delicious gastronomy of the area without leaving your home at Residential Resort Cumbre del Sol. We hope you have enjoyed this delicious trip!
