Description: |
This recently refurbished, beautifully furnished house is situated in the historic heart of Almunecars old town close to all amenities. The old town has a vibrancy and flavour not found in modern developments. This is the real Spain - the local bar has live flamenco several evenings a week and most bars offer free delicious tapas. The house sleeps six comfortably. From the large sun-bathing roof terrace there are views over the old town to the ocean, castle and mountains. There is also an outdoor shower on the terrace. There is a modern, fully equipped kitchen on the ground floor and also an ‘al-fresco’ kitchen on the roof terrace comprising sink, fridge and grill platter. The modern, fully tiled bathroom has sink, toilet, and bathtub with shower over.
Just around the corner is a small shop selling fresh bread and local produce. There is also a large daily food market in town selling fresh local fruit, fish, vegetables and flowers. On Fridays there is a large colourful street market selling clothes, pottery, leather goods, etc. The old town retains its traditional charm and character and is full of lively tapas bars, restaurants, boutiques and craft shops.
On the hill above the house is the impressive San Miguel Moorish castle which houses it’s own museum in the caves below. Close by is the Parque de Majuelo botanical gardens containing one of Europe’s largest collection of subtropical plants. In the park are also the ruins of a fish salting factory founded by the Phoenicians in 400 BC. All year round there are local festivals and fiestas which can last for days and bring a carnival atmosphere to town. Another local attraction is the Loro bird park which has over 120 different species of birds on display. Visit the new aquarium - the largest in Andalucia!
Almunecar is a traditional, unspoilt typically Spanish coastal town situated on the Costa Tropical famed for its mild climate which, according to the World Health Authority, is one of the healthiest climates in the world. The surrounding area is renowned for its fruit orchards and there is a large chirimoya (custard apple) plantation behind San Cristobal beach. The beaches are clean with good facilities bordered by long, palm-tree lined promenades, dotted with pretty restaurants and cherinquitos (beach bars) serving tasty local delicacies. The crystal clear sea makes the area ideal for diving with diving schools in Almunecar, La Herradura and Marina del Este. Most water sports are available during the summer months and life guards are on duty in high season.
Inland from Almunecar through the Alpujarra national park lies Granada (50 minute drive) and the beautiful Alhambra Palace.
Skiing is available in the winter months on the Sierra Nevada at one of the 39 ski runs at Pradollano ski village to the east of Granada (about a 90 minute drive), also tobogganing and ice-skating.
Further down the coast to the west is La Herradura (10 minute drive) which is a small bay offering plenty of water sports and the exclusive 500 berth marina at Marina del Este. Nerja is a pretty village further along the coast, popular with English tourists, and the spectacular caves of Nerja which contain the largest stalactite pillar in the world and newly discovered archaeological site certainly deserve a visit.
