Due to its natural topography, Alcaidesa enjoys an exclusive location with direct views of the adjacent Mediterranean Sea and neighboring Gibraltar.
Upon your arrival, enjoy the access road to Alcaidesa with its palm-lined avenue and the beautiful panoramic view of the bay, which is unique and unrivaled.
Popular destinations include Gibraltar and whale watching near Gibraltar. However, the possibilities are far from exhausted: cities such as Marbella, Malaga, Cadiz, Jerez de la Frontera and Seville are easy to explore as a day trip. Absolutely worth seeing is also around 100 kilometers away small town Ronda. This is one of the white villages of Spain and is by the Moorish embossed old town for sightseeing. From the port of Tarifa you can visit Morocco.
Alcaidesa

Alcaidesa has a beautiful and well maintained beach with a wonderful view of Gibraltar. Here you can relax in a quiet atmosphere and escape the stressful everyday life at home. Much of the beach is surrounded on the land side by a beautiful golf course. Two very good chiringuitos with a great location provide for their physical well-being. If you are looking for peace and an exceptional beach, Alcaidesa is the place for you.
For golfers Alcaidesa is a dream come true. The two golf courses (Links and Heathland), created by two distinguished architects, are surrounded by a landscape of rolling hills and idyllic forests. The classic links course (the original links style is the only one in Spain) is suitable for golfers of all levels and boasts wide, open fairways, some of which must be played blind. The well-maintained and varied course offers not only a beautiful game under the Andalusian sun, but also a magnificent view over Gibraltar and the nearby Africa.
The clubhouse and proximity to other golf courses in the area (eg Sotogrande and San Roque) make Alcaidesa a truly unique Mediterranean meeting place for amateur and professional golfers from around the world.

Other destinations that are worthwhile (day trips)
Málaga and surroundings

Malaga does not have the tourist features such as Córdoba, Granada or Seville.

Granada is one of the tourist highlights of Andalusia. A special sight of the city is the world famous Alhambra. In addition, Granada with its buildings from the time of the Moors is an absolute highlight for all art and history lovers.
The following attractions in Granada are always worth a visit.
  • The castle Alhambra
    The Alhambra consists of fortress, palaces and gardens. It sits enthroned on a hill above the city and essentially determines the image of Granada.
  • The buildings and gardens Generalife
    The Generalife belongs to the Alhambra, but is spatially separate from it. Magnificent and sophisticated is not the building complex itself, but the gardens in which it is located. That is why the gardens of Generalife are considered one of the most beautiful in the world.
