About Las Virtudes, Villena
Las Virtudes (popularly known to locals as La Virgen) is a peaceful and highly desirable pedanía (hamlet) belonging to the municipality of Villena, situated roughly 5 kilometers south-west of Villena town center.
The Vibe
It is one of the area’s favorite recreational spots, built around the beautiful 15th-century Santuario de Nuestra Señora de las Virtudes (Santuario de las Virtudes). The village offers a lovely, relaxed community feel with traditional bars and a beautiful pine-shaded park plaza right on your doorstep.
Connectivity
In 2004, the old “Chicharra” railway track was converted into a protected Vía Verde (Greenway). This means residents can safely walk, run, or cycle from Las Virtudes directly into the main town of Villena completely free of vehicle traffic.
Culture
The hamlet becomes vibrant and full of life during the annual Moros y Cristianos (Moors and Christians) festival in early September, serving as a key cultural hub for the region.
Distance to Alicante Airport
Getting to and from the coast is incredibly straightforward. Las Virtudes sits right on the edge of the Alto Vinalopó region, offering fast access to the A-31 highway.
By Car: The driving distance to Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC) is approximately 60 kilometers. It is a smooth, direct drive down the A-31 dual carriageway that takes roughly 40 to 45 minutes.
By Train
For alternative travel, Villena’s main train station and its high-speed AVE station (Villena AV) offer direct rail links across the province and straight into Alicante city center.
At €129,000, this property represents incredible value for the Alicante inland market. Finding a detached, fully modernized home on a substantial plot with a private pool, mains utilities, and genuine walking distance to village amenities is exceptionally rare. It is an ideal full-time residence, holiday home, or rental investment opportunity.
