160 km from our hotel in Granada is one of the most beautiful architectural complexes in Spain. This castle, which was built in the 13th century, is the Alhambra. The castle consists of two palaces - Nazar and Comares, each of which has its own unique interior.
In addition to the beautiful architecture, you can enjoy amazing gardens on the territory of the Alhambra. Some of them are part of one or another palace, but there are also separate ones, for example, Alarve. Located along the fortress walls, they amaze with their greenery and lushness, which is why they are often called the “forest of the Alhambra.”
If you decide to visit the Alhambra, it is better to book tickets in advance, since entrance to the castle is limited in time and number of visitors. It is also worth studying the history of the castle and its architecture in advance in order to get the most out of your visit to this amazing place.
Plaza de España is one of the most impressive places in Seville. This architectural ensemble is located in Maria Luisa Park and amazes with its grandeur and beauty. In front of the building, following the curve of its façade, stretches a picturesque canal 515 meters long and 1.2 meters deep.
Piazza di Spagna is known as the “Venice of Seville”: here you can rent a small boat and take a romantic stroll along the canal.
A tour of the Plaza de España architectural complex in Seville can be compared to a walk around the country. Along the building, in niches, there are large benches decorated with ceramic mosaics that represent the 48 Spanish provinces. All of them are placed in alphabetical order. Each niche depicts a characteristic monument or historical moment, as well as a coat of arms and a map of the province.
Plaza de España is located in the south of Seville in the historical center. Walking distance from Seville Cathedral is approximately 20 minutes. You do not need a ticket to enter the square, and you can take a walk here at any time of the day.
The location of Sierra Blanca Resort Spa is very attractive because it allows you to enjoy the best that southern Spain has to offer, including the famous port of Puerto Banus, which is just 10 minutes away.
When it comes to glamor and entertainment, few places on the planet compare to the fashionable resort of Marbella and its high-profile port of Banus. For more than 50 years, this area, awarded a gold medal for tourism services, has been attracting millionaires and Hollywood stars, as well as just tourists who dream of getting a glimpse into the world of snow-white yachts, expensive mansions and boutiques of the world's leading brands.
Puerto Banus is the epitome of chic and brilliance, as well as life, consisting of nightclubs open until the morning, the clinking of glasses with collectible champagne, pleasure boats tens of meters long and endless temptations at every turn.
For our guests, we can individually order a guide to restaurants, bars, boutiques and nightclubs. And also excursions on a yacht.
Ronda is one of the most beautiful cities in Andalusia, a colorful ancient tapestry woven from threads of winding streets, ancient white houses and picturesque landscapes. The landscape, atmosphere, history and legends make this cradle of bullfighters and artists so unique.
The picturesque city, an hour's drive from Marbella, is known to many for the Puente Nuevo bridge hanging over the cliff. It was built in the narrowest and at the same time in the deepest part of the gorge. The bridge is so huge that it seems to be part of an underground castle. One of the oldest bullrings in the country, Plaza de Toros, is also located here (you can view it from above from the terrace of the Panoramico restaurant).
The Alcazar Palace is the main royal landmark of Seville, located in the central part of the city. The Reales Alcázares de Sevilla is known as the second largest royal residence in Spain after the Alhambra.
The palace is considered one of Spain's most famous Moorish-style landmarks (known in Seville as Mudejar). Characteristic features of this trend are ceilings inlaid with precious stones, painted floors and walls.
The Alcazar in Seville is surrounded on all sides by a large picturesque garden filled with roses, orange and lemon trees. In different parts of the park you can see fountains and sculptures dating back to different eras - from the early Middle Ages to late classicism. Tourists say that you can walk along the well-groomed alleys all day long.
Tarifa is the southernmost tip of the Iberian Peninsula. Situated on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, this city is characterized by extensive beaches where a strong east wind blows. There are simply no windless days here! It is not for nothing that Tarifa is considered the capital of the winds.
Tarifa is located at the narrowest point of the Strait of Gibraltar. Africa is only 16 km from here. You stand on the shore, on the left is the Mediterranean Sea, and on the right is the Atlantic Ocean. This is the most popular surfing and kiting destination in Europe. But you can also do many alternative activities to windsurfing. In addition to exploring the excellent scenery of the mountains and coastlines, you can go mountain biking or horseback riding.
Tarifa is a unique kite and surf resort that has retained its original atmosphere. Spacious shores with pine forests and hills will be remembered for a long time by anyone, not just a surfer.
In the protected forests of Spain, in the middle of mountains and forests, there is a fabulous village-Huskar, where everything: the walls of houses, an ancient church, shops, is like the sky, blue in color.
And in the cartoon town there are kind smurfs who will gladly turn you and your kids into real blue dwarfs.
Smurf Village is 50 km from our hotel. This "blue village", where all the houses are bright blue, was chosen by Sony Pictures as the place for the presentation of the new film. There is a beautiful square in the center of the village, where various events and festivals take place. There are also several museums in Huskar dedicated to the history and culture of the region. In general, Huskar is a small but very interesting and cozy town that is worth a visit if you are traveling in Spain.
