Why this destination is a must-visit

Curiosities of Aguadulce
Aguadulce has its name for a reason, and it’s not just a marketing idea from the 1960s. Discover some of the most fascinating facts that make this beautiful corner of Almería so special:
-
The mystery behind the name (water that isn’t salty)
It’s called Aguadulce because fresh water springs emerge right by the seashore. In the past, sailors took advantage of these natural filtrations from the Sierra de Gádor to refill their drinking water supplies without having to sail far from the coast. -
The “Kilometre Zero” of Spanish tourism
Aguadulce is part of tourism history. In 1964 it was declared the first Centre of National Tourist Interest in Spain. In many ways, the modern sun-and-beach holiday model that we know today began right here. -
A Hollywood base by the sea
Thanks to its proximity to Tabernas, Aguadulce, in Almería, became the perfect coastal base for Western film crews. Stars such as Harrison Ford, Clint Eastwood and Steven Spielberg stayed here while filming in the desert, seeking the refreshing sea breeze after long days under the intense heat. -
The “shield” microclimate
Protected by the Sierra de Gádor, Aguadulce enjoys a unique microclimate. While strong Poniente or Levante winds may sweep across other parts of Almería, the sea here is often calmer and the air noticeably milder. -
A hidden treasure beneath your feet: Ribera de la Algaida
Nearby lies the archaeological site of Turaniana, home to the remains of a Roman settlement. Even more remarkable is its Posidonia reef, one of the few natural monuments of its kind in the Mediterranean, forming an underwater ecosystem that helps keep the water exceptionally clear.
Almería: untouched beaches and cinematic scenery
Almería isn’t just another beach destination, it’s a unique blend of desert landscapes, traditional villages, and Mediterranean coastline. Ideal for families and couples seeking a sunny break with a taste of local culture, this corner of Andalusia is full of surprises.
Make sure you visit:
- The Alcazaba of Almería: a massive Moorish fortress with panoramic views.
- The old town of Níjar: known for pottery, textiles, and whitewashed charm.
- Tabernas Desert: Europe’s only desert, used in countless western movies.
- Cabo de Gata Natural Park: a protected area with dramatic cliffs and coves.
Beaches we think you’ll like:
- Genoveses Beach: wide, natural, and perfect for a peaceful day.
- Mónsul Beach: famous for its volcanic rock formations and clear water.
- Playa del Zapillo: right in Almería city, with all facilities nearby.
- Aguadulce Beach: great for families with calm waters and playgrounds.
Family-Friendly activities:
- Visit the MiniHollywood Theme Park in Tabernas, with shows and a zoo.
- Take an easy hike through Cabo de Gata with stops at scenic viewpoints.
- Try kayaking or snorkeling tours in crystal-clear waters.
- Spend the evening strolling along the seaside promenade with ice cream.
Make sure you try these local delicacies:
- Fried fish (“pescaíto frito”) in beachfront bars.
- “Migas” and “gurullos”, two hearty traditional dishes.
- Local tapas: order a drink and get a snack for free!
- Artisan ice creams, perfect on a warm Almería evening.
Make the most of your visit and go to ...
- Mojácar (1h drive): a hilltop village with stunning sea views.

We stayed with only bed and breakfast. Room and hotel is clean. Did not use the pool or other facilities. The breakfast itself is fine
However the breakfast room it is not a Nice place to easy enjoy your breakfast. It is loud and crowded. It is my personal experience that I did not like this. Next time I would book without breakfast.
Superb
El paseo marítimo, la playa, la piscina, aunque en temporada alta debe ser horror de gente, la amabilidad y disposición de sus trabajadores.
The restaurant definitely needs improving: everything is of very poor quality. And some things are sheer neglect. I understand costs must be cut, but a tasty paella can be made cheaply without using that nasty frozen stuff. Fried dishes can be properly fried, without that disgusting excess of oil. Even the cream in the pastries was horrible. The cakes — all bad, really bad. You can't serve custard that tastes burnt, or a potato salad with hard potatoes. A cheese sauce for pasta that was completely sweet. These are things you don't understand, because you can offer cheap food that still tastes good.
Mejorar sin duda el restaurante: todo es de malísima calidad. Y hay cosas que es pura dejadez. Entiendo que hay que abaratar costes. Pero una paella sabrosa se puede hacer muy barata, prescindiendo del congelado guarro. Los fritos se pueden freír bien, sin ese exceso asqueroso de aceite. Es que hasta la crema de la bollería era asquerosa. Los pasteles, todo malo, malo. No se pueden servir unas natillas que saben a quemado. O una ensalada de patata con la patata dura. Una crema de queso para la pasta que era totalmente azucarada. Son cosas que no se entienden. Porque se puede poner comida barata pero que esté sabrosa.

La ubicación, la habitación y las zonas comunes han sido de diez
At dinner service there was a shortage of hot food. Breakfast was perfect, but the hot dishes at lunch/dinner lacked variety.
En el servicio de cenas la comida caliente fue escasa. El desayuno perfecto, pero la comida caliente sin variedad.

La ubicación
The rooms are very old and run-down and the cleanliness was questionable; we found a shoe under the bed that wasn’t ours. The air conditioning didn’t work for the whole stay despite notifying staff. The food was quite repetitive and for intolerances — coeliac disease in our case — the staff were very poorly trained and unhelpful. At breakfast I asked what the options were and was told it was what they had put out for everyone, that there was nothing with flour. They gave me a small, hard bun and a couple of packets of biscuits with no indication that they were gluten-free. I had to ask a third time and they gave me two muffins, which were at least labelled.
Las habitaciones son muy antiguas y deterioradas con limpieza bastante discutible, nos encontramos un zapato debajo de la cama que no era nuestro. El aire acondicionado no funcionó durante toda la estancia a pesar de avisar al personal. La comida bastante repetitiva y para las intolerancias, celiaquia concretamente, personal muy mal formado y nada colaborador. En el desayuno pedí cuales eran las opciones y me contestaron que era lo que habia puesto para todos que no tuviera harina. Me dieron un bollito pequeño y duro y un par de paquetes de galletas sin ninguna indicación de sin gluten. Tuve que pedir por tercera vez y me dieron dos magdalenas, éstas ya sí indicadas.

La estancia en el hotel de 10. La habitación muy grande,espaciosa,las vistas al mar espectaculares. El personal muy atento en todo momento. Las instalaciones y piscinas muy bien. La comida bien, eche de menos mas variedad, pero bien. Y lo mejor de todo es que aceptan mascotas y pude disfrutarlo también con mi perrita
If they reopened the heated pool it would be great.
Si abriesen de nuevo la piscina climatizada seria genial.

La ubicación perfecta y el personal amable.
The lunch and dinner are awful — there’s no variation, the same thing every day. Everyone was complaining; they kept removing more items and each day you had fewer options.
Everything is prohibited: you can’t refill bottles even in All-Inclusive, they don’t let you take food out of the buffet, the snacks are always the same and scarce. Even the chiringuito was closed at 6 pm; we had All-Inclusive and still couldn’t use the chiringuito.
The pools are horrible — the minimum depth is 1.50 m, so if you have elderly people with you like we did, they can’t use them because they can’t touch the bottom.
A month before arriving I requested a room with a shower due to a physical problem of the person travelling with me, and when we arrived they told me there were no rooms with a shower available. A disgrace.
La comida y cena es pesima, no tienes variación, todos los dias lo mismo, todo el mundo quejandose, cada vez quitaban más cosas y te quedabas cada dia con menos opciones.
Tienen prohibido todo, no puedes rellenar botellas aun teniendo el todo incluído, no te dejan sacar comida del buffet, los snack siempre lo mismo y escaso, hasta un fia el chiringuito cero a las 6 de la tarde, llevabamos el todo incluido y nos quedamos sin poder consumir del chiringuito.
Las piscinas horrorosas, el minimo es 1.50 y como vayas con personas mayores como en mi caso, no pueden usarlas porque no hacen pie.
Un mes antes de llegar solicite ducha en la habitación por un problema físico de la persona que me acompañaba y al llegar me indican que no hay habitaciones libres con ducha, una vergüenza.

Hemos disfrutado de la piscina de las actividades y de la habitacion
It's a once four-star room that's gone downhill and needs infrastructure updates.
The dining service offers large portions but of poor quality.
Es un cuarto estrellas venido a menos necesita actualización de infraestructuras.
El servicio de comedor es abundante pero de poca calidad.

La ubicación del hotel es perfecta en el paseo marítimo a un paseo del puerto deportivo.
The pillows are very soft, just a small gripe, although overall everything was fine.
Las almohadas son muy blandas, por poner alguna pega aunque en general todo bien.

The hotel could be improved overall; the rooms were quite run down. The one I stayed in smelled strongly of damp. The food was not very varied and the quality left a bit to be desired. Cleanliness overall was also mediocre. I don’t think I would return.
Mejoraría el hotel en general, las habitaciones bastantes deterioradas. En que yo me aloje olía muchísimo a humedad. La comida muy poco variada y la calidad dejaba un poco que desear. La limpieza en general también regular. Creo que no volveria
