Where are Villas Sunset in Alcocéber?
Villas Sunset is in the southern part of El Cargador, towards La Romana beach, about 400 metres from El Cargador beach according to Casa Azahar. Guests describe it as a small, quiet development, a few minutes' walk from the beach, and many mention the sunsets from the terrace, which give the complex its name.
Nearby beaches:
- El Carregador or Cargador beach: about 850 metres of fine sand and 70 wide, with dunes, a promenade, a sailing club and a Blue Flag every year since 1987.
- La Romana beach: about 500 metres of fine sand, accessible and linked to El Cargador by the wooden walkway of the Senda Litoral.
- El Moro, a little further south, with sand between rocks and lifeguards in season.
Advantages of the area: the peace of a development with the beach a short walk away and the centre reachable along the promenade. Drawbacks: the centre and the marina are a little further away than from the promenade itself, and in 2026 there was building work next to the complex that some guests noticed.

- Privacy: only 6 villas in the complex.
- Air conditioning and wifi that work.
Weak points

Tips before booking Villas Sunset
- Make the most of the barbecue. Bring charcoal or ask what is available, and follow the development's rules.
- Mosquitoes. As there are no mosquito screens, a plug-in mosquito repellent makes nights more comfortable.
- Small children. Watch the steps on the raised terraces.
- Kitchen. The ceramic hob is a little slow; for long meals, the barbecue is a good ally.
- Long stays. In the article on renting by the week or fortnight we explain how the summer works in Alcocéber.
When to go to Villas Sunset
Alcossebre has a mild Mediterranean climate: according to AEMET normals for the Castelló-Almassora station, the average is around 24.5 °C in summer, with highs of 29-30 °C, about 16 °C in spring and about 19 °C in autumn, and it gets more than 2,700 hours of sunshine a year. The sea is around 25 °C in midsummer.
In July and August the private garden and barbecue become the living room of the house, and the very well-rated air conditioning lets you rest well; it is also when the shared pool is at its busiest. In June and September the sunsets that give the complex its name are enjoyed in milder temperatures, the beach is clearer and the pool quieter. In spring and autumn the villas are a good base for exploring the Sierra de Irta and the surrounding towns, such as Alcalà de Xivert, Peñíscola or Morella.
