What about hotel maritimo, is good to stay?
How reach the centre from the airport?
Any saggestion for good tapas?
Thanks
From the airport to Alicante city center the best is the bus, line C6. Every 20 minutes. Have a look at my transportation tips, you will see the link to the bus company with maps, etc.:

The situation of the hotel is OK. I have no references, I think it is quite new.
Alicante is not the best place for tapas but I'd recommend you the taberna Raco del Pla: calle Navas 40. Excellent. Very near is El Cisne (calle Bazan and calle del Teatro with Cesar Elguezabal).
Have a look at this site:

Have in mind that the main meal is lunch, about 2-3 pm. Try a paella (nor for dinner, this is only for tourists ;-) Also avoid "precooked" paellas. Best restaurants are Nou Manolin (Villegas 3, near calle Castaños) and Piripi (Oscar Esplá 30), but you will find thousands of restaurants that serve a good one.
Enjoy your stay here.

I forgot a small detail...
I suppose you know you will come in the middle of the Hogueras de San Juan, the main festival in Alicante. See my tips about and don't miss the "mascletá", please. Every day during the festival, at Plaza de los Luceros, 2 pm. Unless you don't like the smell of gunpowder and the big noise.
In that period, a typical dish is "coca amb tonyina" (coca de atún), which is a cake made with tuna fish, and black figs (or early figs) as a dessert. You will find it in the "barracas", the stalls you will see all along the streets.
Gracias Aitana. Puedes decirme como llegar al castillo de santa barbara (sin caminar demasiado!)
Para subir al castillo:
a) desde el barrio de Santa Cruz, la muralla arranca justo junto a la ermita de Santa Cruz.
b) desde el Pla, cerca del MARQ (delante de la estación del tram): puedes subir en coche un tramo y continuar andando (no recuerdo si hay que andar mucho, hace tiempo que no subo).
c) hay un ascensor, la entrada está enfrente de la playa del Postiguet. Si eres claustrofóbico, olvídalo.
Por cierto, hoy he ido a Valencia por Alcoy. La circunvalación te evita atravesar la ciudad, pero el tramo desde Alcoy hasta casi Albaida sigue siendo lento.
Hola Miki,
En la respuesta de ayer incluí un comentario sobre el itinerario de Alicante a Valencia que no tenía ninguna relación con tu pregunta, pensaba en otra pregunta del foro.

Although Alicante hosts many tourists, there is a still a large percentage of people that do not speak or understand english. So it is advised (as is on most trips) to try and learn some of the local language.
There were several times on our trip that if no one spoke any spanish, there was going to be absolutely no communication with spanish people we needed to speak to.
Most people were very patient in trying to understand our broken spanish.
Not far from Alicante (about 20 km), just a few kilometers from village Busot there are Cuevas del Canalobre (Candelabrum Caves - was named after the shape of one of the stalogmites inside).
It can be hardly called caves (in plural), it is just one biiig cave, but in any case pardon my spelliological knowledge. It is one of the biggest and deepest in Spain, about 70 meters down, as far as I can recollect guides comments.
....this dishes is wonderful....I tried after for the way to make it but i found this in Spanish....
