About us

We are José and Willem Jan Beernink, a Dutch married couple, who came to Moraira & Benitachell for the first time in 2009. We fell in love with this part of Spain immediately. We liked it so much here that we've bought Casa Beernink (now Casa Bear). During the years we have gotten to know the area very well and know all the good spots to make the best out of your holiday. This part of Spain definitely feels like our second home! 

We want to pass on the great experiences we have had to more people. That is why we started renting the apartments and later on Casa Kirsten & Casa Bear.

Get to know us better by reading about our favorite spots down below!

Are you interested in renting one of our Apartments or Casas? Or do you have any questions? Feel free to call +31(0)613943936 or send an email to [email protected]

José's Favorites

Hiking in the mountains

My favorite hike is in Valle de Guadalest. It has a beautiful ice blue lake. Which is a true showstopper. The best part, you do not have to be an advanced hiker to complete this hike.

Drinks at the beach - Algas 

Fancy a drink before or after diner? Than Algas is the place to be. It is a chill place near the beach that serves delicious cocktails. https://www.algasmoraira.com/

Flea Market - Jalon

If you enjoy visiting flea markets you should visit the market in Jalon. You can visit the market every Saturday at 9:00 am. When done looking around I recommend you take a refreshment at Casa Aleluya.  https://www.facebook.com/AleluyaBar/?locale=nl_NL

Restaurant - Vall de Cavall

Want to go for lunch or diner in a unique place? Than you must visit the restaurant Vall de Cavall. It is located in Dénia, located approx. 20 minutes by car from our accommodations. https://valldecavall.es/

Ell Portet - Paella & Beer

One of the most picturesque beaches in the area, Playa del Portet is a sheltered horseshoe-shaped bay, with calm turquoise waters. You  can chill at the beachside bars with the best paella and a chilled cerveza while your kids play on the beach in front of you.
