Villa Foia Vella
About
Villa Foia Vella is peace, relaxation and carefree enjoyment. A small-scale retreat on a 2-hectare old olive grove. Enjoy natural beauty and tranquility (which is why we are 'adults only'). We also offer yoga classes and coaching. We have 3 en-suite rooms with beautiful views across a valley full of green trees. You will sleep blissfully on a 1.80 x 2.10m spacious, high-quality, comfortable box spring bed and have the convenience of a luxurious bathroom. A delicious breakfast is included. “Foia Vella” is a Valencian word meaning “old land”. This is fertile red soil with history. With 3004 year old olive trees. With murals that show that people here have been living in harmony with nature for at least 7,000 years. Nature is overwhelming here and invites you to take care of yourself and to leave your daily worries behind. Experience the power of pure nature. Villa Foia Vella is a place to simply ‘be’ and connect: with yourself, with nature and with each other. From our own experience we know how important and pleasant it is to regularly take a step back. To relax, enjoy and think about what you do and where you are going, consciously or unconsciously. Nature helps enormously with that. We enjoy treating our guests to a carefree stay at this special place. Of course we will gladly inform you about the many possibilities in the area: cycling and walking routes, restaurants, beaches, villages, markets etc ... Activities in Villa Foia Vella The villa sits in a secluded valley between dales and mountains. There are plenty of opportunities for relaxation around the house, for example; lazing in a hammock, bird watching with the naked eye and with binoculars, or taking a refreshing dip in the swimming pool. Short and more extended walking tours and cycling trips can be made directly from the villa. In the evening you can admire the night sky with binoculars. - Plenty of hiking pleasure - Free loan of bicycles - Flower garden - Bird watching - Inviting swimming pool - Stargazing with our powerfull telescope Personal development Villa Foia Vella is the place to get inspiration and insights.
