 Celebration was the name of the game this Saturday night, and the 6am girls take celebrating to the max wherever we go.
It was the birthday of our youngest 6am girl Jess, so we knew we needed to go somewhere with a real party atmosphere. During the week we had heard about the 70’s, 80’s & 90’s theme night being held at Achill on Saturday 12th April. We thought this was a great opportunity to review two of the most popular bars on Javea’s Arenal and give our birthday girl a taste of some classic funky tunes from before she was even a twinkle in her mummy’s eye! Ahhhhh bless.
Our first stop of the evening was our regular Saturday night stint at the Coast FM studios, which is now more like our second home, we even have keys!
This week not only did we have the pleasure of the charming Mr Dougie Mac, but we also got to meet a couple of his lovely DJ friends, Sharon & Ryan from UK based Sovereign radio, here sampling the liquid delights of the Costa Blanca. So with at least 12 of us in the Coast FM studio, the party had kicked off with some of Dougies great Ascension tunes and a lot of fruit inspired lubrication, and it was only 10pm!
Im sure you can all see where this is leading.
After prying ourselves away from Coast FM, we head straight to a bar with a reputation for the biggest, best and most potent cocktails in Javea, Jalousie. For that special birthday celebration, it is imperative that our birthday girl drinks at least one Jalousie’s famous Desastre cocktails to celebrate her coming of age. Add in a couple more Desastre’s, and you find making sand angels on the beach is also a must do, fortunately with the numbing amount of alcohol in this potent cocktail, chaffing in the pant region is not a problem, ask Tinks one of our 6am girls, she can certainly verify this for a fact!
Jalousie or to all us old timers Champagne, appeals to such a wide variety of age groups and nationalities, that this bar is rarely empty come morning, noon or night.
Opening daily from 8am with one of the best English breakfasts on the beach at €7.75, then continuing throughout the day with a variety of delicious snack, tapas, salads, pastas and sandwiches, served, weather permitting, on their lovely sun terrace, overlooking the beautiful Arenal beach. Drinks prices are not the cheapest in Javea but reasonable considering its great beachfront location.
For your evening festivities you can start off with one of their tasty main course meals starting from €7.00, then work you way through their extensive cocktail menu, including a selection of non alcoholic cocktails for the designated drivers. Vegetarians are catered for and they also provide a good selection of children’s meals from €4.95.
Service is fast and efficient, tables are cleared quickly and waitresses are friendly and helpful. Our only negative comments are about the toilets; they do need to be checked on a more regular basis, as sinks were blocked and overflowing quite early on and still the same an hour later.
Apart from that, the trip to Jalousie was certainly a good start to our evening, and our 6am girl Jo summed up the feeling of this bar in one succinct sentence.
“It’s a well known, busy bar with a real buzz, the kind of place to see and be seen” and we think she was spot on.
A day trip or night out in Javea is not complete without sampling a bit of this popular beach bars famous hospitality. The 6am girls think its one of the best places in Javea to kick start your evening festivities before moving down the road to Jalousie’s louder bigger brother Achill nightclub, which is where the 6am girls are headed next………
