Description

Be one with nature... "and into the forest I go, to lose my head and find my soul" "I went into the woods and came out taller than the trees" "there is no wi-fi in the forest, but you will find a better connection" Imagine a place where tranquility envelops you. The car is parked at the entrance and you enter the valley unhurriedly savoring your first encounter with the environment, as our location offers breathtaking views of the National Park. We live in an oasis of nature, beauty and splendor, which invites you to relax, rejuvenate, renew and connect with your essence. Come and enjoy a valley surrounded by forests and set in the mountains as a backdrop and experience for a season the "off-grid" self-sustainable life, being aware of your consumption of natural resources, exploring an environment free of light pollution, noise, 5G.... If this is your first time with AlohaCamp, contact us by message to receive a 20 Euro discount code to use on your first reservation. Likewise, if you want to bring your pet (small size and weight) we will be happy to hear your proposal but please send us a message BEFORE making the reservation, as we would like to check that it is compatible with the various animals that live here and make their stay as comfortable as possible. We ask for a donation of 15 Euros upon arrival. Our finca is located on a 12,000 m2 plot of land with a variety of trees and plants: a multitude of pine trees, small palm trees, fig trees, olive trees, almond trees, apple trees, mulberry trees, plum trees, citrus trees and above all rosemary, camomile and thyme... and between May and October you can enjoy our swimming pool. Cleaning, water, gas and electricity consumption are included with your stay within a sensible use of the facilities and in resonance with our off-grid installation: we will be happy to explain how we work. The only additional charges on arrival are minimal and are shown at the end of our listing: a returnable deposit and a small contribution for "parking" for our community liaison person during the visit, who prepares with great love and care the chosen accommodation and invests his time in welcoming, caring, assisting and dismissing all members of the reservation. We also encourage you to disconnect from social networks and the "online" world during your stay. Please note that there is only 4G signal from Movistar (and associated teleoperators) and our WI-FI up to 50Mbps is located in the cabins area, which is turned off at night so you can rest "like when we were kids". The view from every corner of our home is uninterrupted over the fields around us, the mountains and the natural park. Our neighbors are some pets (2 dogs, 5 cats and several hens) and a multitude of birds (nightingales, cuckoos, sparrows... ), mammals (red squirrels, wild goats, wild boars...) and a variety of small reptiles and harmless insects. Near us there is a nice secret restaurant "Michelin" style 5 km from the property with excellent food (5 courses for 40EUR) or you have a wonderful dinner in a hidden wine cellar in a rural house (three-course homemade menu for 25EUR) or in the nearest rural hotel (variety of dishes and prices). There is also a small market every Saturday in our nearest village, along with a highly recommended museum about the ancient history of this place. Here we enjoy sun and stars 296 days of the year and if you wish to combine mountain and beach, we are only 24km from natural waterfalls, 36km of fine sandy beaches or 44km of coves with crystal clear water. Our location is a very suitable environment for cycling, hiking or sport climbing, exploring caves with ancient paintings, observing fauna and flora, reading or writing that book you have pending, reviewing your life plans, meeting your friends or, why not, just doing nothing. Our spaces available for visits at the moment are: 1. DAWN: A private log cabin with open space and a 150cm bed, sofa bed, textiles such as sheets, blankets and towels, hanging and storage space for clothes, a standing fan plus air conditioning, heater and stove in winter, several reading books, kitchen-dining room with table and four chairs, a gas stove with two burners, a small fridge, food storage box, containers for recycling, kitchen accessories (frying pan, pot, pots, saucepans, plates, bowls, glasses, cups, cutting board, knives, cutlery, etc.), paper towels, washing accessories (brush, sponge, ecological dishwasher, kitchen towels), basic ingredients for cooking (oil, salt, vinegar, sugar), separate bathroom with toilet, shower and traditional sink with rainwater and ecological soap-shampoo, recycled paper. Enjoy a private terrace with a table and four chairs, two sun loungers plus large chill-out sofa with table perfect for stargazing, breakfast or enjoy the scenery. 2. ATARDECECER (can be combined with AMANECER, for groups or families that require more space): A shared diaphanous wooden cabin, with two single beds and a bunk bed of 90x190cm each, a trundle sofa-bed, and a small living room created with recycled pallets. Textiles included such as sheets, blankets and towels. Shared panoramic outdoor kitchen equipped with sink, oven and four burner gas stove, shared fridge, storage space for food, tea and sugar with free donation, various utensils (coffee maker, kettle, cutlery, plates, glasses, cups, pot, pan, etc) and beautiful views of the valley, with several armchairs and tables. Shared bathroom outside with beautiful views, including dry toilet, ecological paper, shower with rainwater and antique sink with ecological soap and shampoo. 3. SUN AND STARS: our "glamping" option for 1 or 2 people (from May to October). Our hybrid experiment between camping and enjoying more comforts in the middle of nature: just bring your backpack and ingredients for cooking. We have a large, magical, secluded space with an unbeatable location on the farm plus a private space under an apple tree to meditate, read or just breathe and observe the environment. The tent is made of natural fabrics and tones, with a double mattress of 140cm, with cotton fabrics, comforter to be warm at night and a simple but cozy space inside. Private dry bathroom with restored antique sink with spring water and ecological soap, and we provide hand towels and shower. For cooking, we invite you to our main panoramic terrace with outdoor kitchen, which is shared with the ATARDECER cabin (if occupied) as well as the outdoor shower. If you come in October, we can provide more blankets but we recommend warm clothes and pajamas for the evenings and mornings. We want to be conscious of our ecological footprint so we use sustainable products. We offer our organic hand gel, shower gel and shampoo free of charge. If you need more options, please bring only biodegradable products or cosmetics, as we use most of the water from the kitchens, showers and toilets to water our plants.

It has been a super comforting and enriching stay, we have been able to appreciate and value even more what is fundamental, although it has been very short it has been a very valuable time and we highly recommend it! For us, this little trip has brought us tranquility and connection with nature which was mainly what we were looking for, what we did not know is that it would also bring us the magic of the people who are part of it and have given us within the trip very valuable life lessons, on the other hand the interior that is in Alicante is brutal and the villages that are close to the stay are also impressive places to discover, in short thank you for this great discovery, we are very grateful for everything you have shown us especially Isa for his closeness, his breadth and his love and of course also to Mali for his attention, care and hospitality and of course we will return another time!!
