Coast/Beach
Around 25 beaches locally and La Herradura is arguably the prettiest of all - and it is right in front of the building! The sheltered beach is a 2km strip set between the natural headlands of Punta de la Mona and Cerro Gordo and is lined with outside cafes, bars and restaurants and offers a good choice of watersports.
Golf
There are two local golf courses within 30 mins drive. Baviera Golf (bavieragolf.com) is beyond Nerja on the road to Malaga. Los Moriscos Golf Club (moriscosgolf.com) is beyond Salobrena near Motril. Both courses include restaurant facilities, club hire and tee times available throughout the day.
Skiing
From November to April you can ski at Sol y Nieve in the morning and sunbathe on the beach in the afternoon. It's only an hour or so to Granada's ski resort, the most southerly in Europe.
Travel
Airports at Malaga (80 kms west) and Granada (100 kms north) are well served by low cost airlines from many European cities. Both are about an hour's drive and forthcoming motorway extensions will reduce this further. Car hire is recommended to appreciate all the area has to offer.
Distances
Almunecar 10 minutes drive east - busy shopping town and thriving resort with bustling Friday market.
Nerja, 15 minutes drive west - pretty seaside resort with typical Andalucian narrow streets, the caves and Balcon de Europe.
Velez-Malaga 30 minutes drive west - giant shopping mall at El Ingenio.
Las Alpujarras 60 minutes drive north - stunning scenery on the southern side of the Sierra Nevada.
Granada 60 minutes drive north - big city with very long history!
Further details
La Herradura has a good selection of shops, small supermarkets and a daily market with fresh meat, fish, fruit & veg and fresh bread from the local baker.
La Herradura is ideal for winter holidays with the special sub-tropical micro climate experienced on the Costa Tropical. Sheltered by the backdrop of spectacular mountains forming part of the Sierra de Almijara, the average temperatures are several degrees warmer than the nearby Costa del Sol.

Guest comments
"I wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time in La Herradura. The apt. was perfect; quite comfortable for us and so conveniently located. I loved the beautiful wood and the marble floors. We were very fortunate to have experienced the Patron Saint (San Jose?) festival during the time we were there. The townspeople and crowds were delightful. Food was cheap and so delicious. I love the town and our trip could not have been better." Ann H, Vernon Hills, Illinois, USA.
"Your slice of heaven! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful apartment with us, it was everything I expected and so much more. It was spotlessly clean and beautifully equipped with everything anybody could reasonably expect." Steve & Trish, Sussex, UK.
