Rest by the sea

In the heart of San José, two minutes' walk from the beach, Puerto Genovés is a family-run hostal where time moves slowly. White walls, sea breeze and the tranquillity of a village that still lives to the rhythm of the Mediterranean.

No rush here. Just the sun, the sea and a place to return to after a good day.

The sea, the wind and time

Cabo de Gata is one of the last unspoiled corners of the Mediterranean. Undeveloped beaches, cliff-edge trails, hidden coves. This is a place to wander aimlessly, swim in crystal-clear waters, and do absolutely nothing.
