Perfection

Everything. The staff are kind, generous, and speak good English. The pool is very big and clean. The character of the building is so romantic. The location in the national park is beautiful and it is possible to walk to a nice little restaurant in the neighbouring village in 10 minutes. The beach is less than 15 minutes' drive. Daily cleaning. Great breakfast (fresh juice). We were worried before we came that it would be too hot as there is no AC. This was NOT a problem despite 37 degree heat and us having a 6 month old baby. The old buildings are designed to be cool and the fans worked well.

A lovely quiet place to explore the area.

It was an unusual location for us as it is well out of town on the edge of a national park, but it became a real pleasure to return to at the end of the day. Very helpful staff. We had a cheese, Iberian ham, and toast supper kindly prepared for us by Eric on our first evening as we didn't want to drive again that day. All washed down with beer and wine from the bar. It was very hot during our stay, and although there was a strong breeze, once you closed the door at night, the heat was oppressive. Luckily, we just asked for a desk fan from the helpful staff, and it became much more comfortable. It has a great pool. We used this tranquil spot as a great place to explore the area. We ate very well in the many beach restaurants that line the coast, albeit each involving a 15-30 minute drive. Vilma near Cape Trafalgar is very relaxed and has good food and fabulous sunsets. The urban beach at Barbate is the closest at about 15 minutes' drive, but there are others that are less busy, such as El Palmar and Conil, about 20-30 minutes drive towards Cadiz. In the opposite direction, we loved our visit to the old town in Tarifa and the windy beach; a haven for kite surfers and wind surfers.

September break

Beautiful location in the pine forest and near the beach. Lovely pool and there's a bar serving breakfast and tapas which you can take away to eat under the trees or on your terrace. Super friendly and we didn't want to leave!

In general nice place, but with cockroaches

Beautiful location in the middle of Andalusian mountains. Very friendly host and staff. Good breakfast, not much varied but enough to start a day. Nice pool.

The fine printPlease note that the hotel has a rural location inside a nature reserve, where there are no street names. Therefore the use of Sat Nav devices is not recommended when trying to reach the hotel. The easiest route is to take the A22-33 via Barbate or Caños de Meca. The first sign to the hotel is half-way between these two towns.
