Javea Car Hire – Premium Cars Delivered Across Xàbia
Javea (Xàbia) is known for its clear turquoise water, scenic coves, dramatic cliffs, and relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. The town is spread across three distinct areas — the historic Old Town, the Port and marina, and the popular Arenal Beach. Most villas and apartments sit high on the hills around Montgó, Balcón al Mar, and Tosalet, which makes having a rental car extremely useful if you want to move freely between beaches, restaurants, viewpoints, and supermarkets.
With a car delivered directly to your villa, hotel, or apartment, you avoid the need for taxis, long walks in the heat, or waiting for buses. You get the flexibility to explore the entire Javea coastline and the mountain roads that surround it.

Why Renting a Car in Javea Makes Your Stay Better
Javea is beautiful but spread out. Moving between the three main areas without a car is time-consuming. A rental car gives you convenience and comfort from the first day.
Many travellers use Javea as a base to explore the Costa Blanca, and some of the best drives in the region start here. If you enjoy coastal roads, you will love the routes mentioned in our guide to Best Coastal Drives in Spain — several of them pass directly through Javea and Benissa Coast.

Easy access to all three main zones
With a car, you can move quickly between:
- Javea Old Town – narrow historic streets, traditional restaurants, weekly market
- Javea Port – marina, promenade, seafood restaurants, quiet coves
- Arenal Beach – sandy beach, bars, shops, evening atmosphere
Driving between them takes 5–10 minutes, depending on traffic.
Ideal for villas and long stays
Most holiday villas are located in residential areas far from the centre:
- Balcón al Mar
- La Corona
- El Tosalet
- Montgó
- Cap Martí
- Puchol
- Adsubia
These zones are quiet and scenic but require a car for shopping, beach access, or dining out.
Perfect for exploring coves and viewpoints
Some of the best places in Javea are not walkable:
- Cala Granadella
- Cala Portitxol (La Barraca)
- Cap de la Nau viewpoint
- Cala Blanca
- Mirador del Faro
If you enjoy scenic viewpoints around the coastline, the article Driving the Costa Blanca: What to See, Eat & Do highlights several miradors that are only a short drive from Javea.
