Coast/Beach
It takes approx 30 - 45 minutes to drive to the Costa Tropical: around 30 minutes to Almuñécar (an important town of the coast), and about 45 minutes to Motril (the capital of the Costa), and Salobreña (another important town of the coast of Granada).
Travel
Granada airport is one hour and a half away. Malaga airport is a two hour drive (taking the coast road). Car hire is recommended.
Distances
Órgiva (the capital of La Alpujarra), 30 minutes. Trevélez (the highest municipality in Spain, and possibly in Europe), 30 - 45 minutes. Granada (the capital of the province, where you can visit the Alhambra), 1 hour and 15 minutes. Sierra Nevada (ski station, the highest peaks in the Peninsula) 1 hour and 45 minutes. The quoted drive distances are approximate.
Further details
The immediate vicinity offers walking, mountain biking and horse trekking, or simply relax on the terrace and soak up the sun. The closest restaurant, El Aljibe, is in our opinion one of the best in the whole region. The bars in this region still offer complimentary tapas with your drinks and the locals plough their fields using mules.
The nearby town of Pitres (5km) has a swimming pool as well as a larger choice of bars and restaurants and 2 mini supermarkets. Further afield, the Moorish city of Granada beckons, and a visit to the Alhambra Palace is not to be missed. The coast near Salobreña is only an hours drive away. The Sierra Nevada natural park is over 170,000 hectares in size and contains the peaks of Alcazaba, Veleta and Mulhacén, all over 3,000m. The high peaks form a spectacular backdrop, being dusted with snow for much of the year.
One of the best times to visit is spring, which in Andalucia starts in February. At this time the wild flowers and the fruit and almond blossoms are at their best. There is a wide variety of deciduous trees within the area that offer wonderful colour changes during autumn.
