Hi all - we live in Madrid and this year are planning to spend some time around Christmas with family down in the south - the in-laws are flying into Alicante, so we expect to stay somewhere nearish. Anyone recommend anywhere in particular? Not especially fussed about apartment vs house, but would prefer to be able to walk to shops/bars, and be in a small-medium town with at least some semblance of history, even if we stay in a new development. Trying to find somewhere that will accomodate a bit of beach (sandy, kids are bucket and spade age), a bit of walking, a bit of sightseeing, depending on weather.
