Cap Martí is an established residential area on the southern side of Javea, set between the Arenal and the town’s wider villa neighbourhoods. It is mainly a place for detached homes rather than apartment blocks, with individual plots, private gardens and a mix of older Spanish villas, renovated properties and newer houses.
Its position is one of the main reasons buyers consider it. The Arenal, Cala Blanca, supermarkets and everyday services are all within easy reach by car, while the streets become quieter as the area rises away from the coast. Cap Martí works well for buyers who want more space than the main coastal zones provide without feeling cut off from the parts of Javea they will use most often.
What Kind of Area Is Cap Martí?
Cap Martí is better understood as a collection of residential pockets than as one uniform urbanisation. The lower streets sit closer to the Arenal and Cala Blanca, while the upper sections merge gradually into the villa areas towards Pinomar, Tosalet and the Portichol road.
This difference matters when comparing properties. A home in lower Cap Martí may offer easier access to shops, the beach and the Arenal. Higher streets tend to feel more private and may have more open views, although gradients become more noticeable and day-to-day journeys are more likely to involve a car. Road width, orientation and winter sun can also vary from one street to the next.
Property in Cap Martí
Most property for sale in Cap Martí consists of detached villas on private plots. The stock covers several periods, from traditional homes with covered terraces and mature gardens to extensively renovated villas and contemporary properties. Private pools, outdoor dining areas, parking and garden space are common buyer priorities here.
Prices vary according to the size and condition of the house, plot size, orientation and position within the area. A renovated villa with open or sea views will sit in a different part of the market from an older house that still needs modernisation. Buyers should compare the complete setting rather than relying on the Cap Martí name alone.

Is Cap Martí Right for You?
Cap Martí suits buyers looking for a villa, private outside space and a residential atmosphere within easy reach of the coast. It can work for year-round living, longer stays or a family base where access to the Arenal and the southern side of Javea matters more than being directly on the seafront.
It is less suitable for buyers who want to leave the car at home for almost every journey. Some lower pockets make walking towards the Arenal or Cala Blanca realistic, but pavements, slopes and distances change considerably across the area. The route should always be checked from the individual property rather than assumed from the district name.
Lower and Upper Cap Martí
Lower Cap Martí offers the most practical position for buyers who want to stay close to the Arenal, supermarkets and beach access. Properties here can feel connected to the coastal side of town while retaining the space and privacy of a villa neighbourhood.
Upper Cap Martí is quieter and more car-dependent. It appeals to buyers who place greater value on privacy, plot size and a more open residential setting. Some streets have sea or countryside views, but view quality and winter sunlight depend heavily on the exact orientation of the house.
Areas to Compare with Cap Martí
Pinosol offers a similarly residential villa setting further inland. Las Laderas is another option for buyers looking for newer homes and a quieter position. Tosalet has a more established urbanisation identity, mature gardens and a broader range of traditional villas.
Cap Martí is often the practical middle ground: close enough to the Arenal and Cala Blanca for regular access, but sufficiently removed from the busiest coastal streets to retain a residential feel.
