Me and me Bro-in-Law did some around Xabia/Javea (parents live nearby). Directly around xabia/Javea it's not brilliant,but the general area looks as tho there must be some great stuff. The local bike shop bloke was brilliant, spoke good English and gave us some really good routes.
xabia bikers blogspotlooks like you can go to their facebook from there.
I'll have a think and post more info, here's some photos

OK cheers: hopwood{dot}mail{at}gmail{dot}com
I originally found this info on Guadalest which is in the mountains behind Benidorm
As it turned out we didn't go there, but you might be interested in checking on them.
I should point out that we tried to get a MTB guidebook, there doesn't appear to be anything.

The trailrider guide to Spain recommends the area round Castell de Castell (about 30km from Benidorm)
