The historic city of Granada, last home of the Moors in Europe, is only 50 minutes away by car and contains much of historic, artistic and architectural interest as well as diverse night life and excellent food. Of course no trip to Granada is complete without a visit to the Alhambra Palace and its magnificent gardens.
The nearest airport is Malaga. Directions from the airport - Follow the coast road N340 to Ronda de Malaga, direction Motril/Almeria. Before you get to Motril take the N323 road and head North to Granada. You will be on this road for about 10 minutes, and then take the Velez de Benaduella exit, and head towards Orgiva. This becomes a twisty road around mountainside and care should be taken. Once through a short tunnel, take an immediate left turn to ORGIVA. Proceed through the town to the location of Hotel Mirasol. Located outside is a public telephone. Call Carol, the property owner from here (958 784 386). Carol will meet you at the Hotel, and then escort you back to Cortijo Caliz.
