Why this destination is a must-visit
Curiosities of Retamar - El Toyo
Retamar and El Toyo are two areas often mentioned together, yet they reveal distinct personalities. This is one of Almería’s most promising zones, shaped by the fusion of residential tradition and the modern energy of major international events.
-
The Mediterranean Games Legacy
El Toyo as you see it today was born from the Almería 2005 Mediterranean Games. The neighborhood was purpose-built to host the Mediterranean Village, welcoming elite athletes from around the world. Many of today’s upscale residential complexes were once home to sporting champions — a legacy that still defines its character. -
A “Garden City” Concept
Unlike the historic center of Almería, El Toyo was designed with a low-density urban vision.-
Green living: Kilometres of bike lanes and wide pedestrian promenades invite you to move freely and enjoy the outdoors.
-
Clean skyline: Much of the electricity and telecommunication infrastructure runs underground, creating an uncluttered, modern coastal landscape.
-
-
The Gateway to Cabo de Gata
Retamar stands as the literal entrance to the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park. It is the final urban hub before protected nature begins. Stay in a luxury hotel and, within five minutes by car, reach the untouched beauty of Las Amoladeras — an unbeatable strategic location. -
Alborán Golf Course
El Toyo features an 18-hole, par-72 golf course that has become a regional benchmark. Designed with sustainability in mind, it incorporates native plant species and efficient irrigation systems adapted to Almería’s semi-arid climate. -
The Origins of Retamar
While El Toyo represents 21st-century modernity, Retamar began expanding in the 1960s and 1970s. Initially conceived as a summer retreat for Almería’s affluent families seeking distance from the city’s bustle, it is now fully integrated into the metropolitan landscape. -
A Privileged Microclimate
Thanks to its open bay location and surrounding orography, the area typically enjoys slightly warmer winters than the capital and a constant sea breeze that tempers the summer heat — a natural advantage you can feel year-round.
