Aguilas - Costa Calida
Aparthotel Playas De Calabardina
An attractive complex of 75 owner-occupier apartments in
the popular Aguilas bay area, just 1 hour thirty minutes away
from Murcia airport. This quiet residential area is located
just 3 kms from Aguilas, a lively Spanish coastal resort which
offers a marina and excellent beaches with good scuba diving
facilities.
Aguilas is a delightful port city located on the Costa Calida.
A tradition of seafaring now combines with a wide range of
tourist facilities, making the most of one of its main attractions,
the extensive coastline.
Aguilas, an old Roman fishing port, was established in more
modern times during the Enlightenment, when in 1785 it began
to operate as a port of exit for the produce of the Murcia
region's fertile fields. In the 19th century it became a major
mining enclave, a reminder of which times is the Hornillo
jetty, where iron, lead and silver from the nearby mines were
loaded onto ships.
In Aguilas town centre, with a rich seafaring flavour, it
is worth visiting Plaza de España's beautiful gardens
full of rubber plants, the City Hall (19th century), and the
parish church of San Jose, where the image of the patron saint
is housed. At the top of the old town, standing on a promontory,
is the castle-fortress of San Juan de Aguilas, built in 1579
for purposes of defence. Below it sits the port and its characteristic
black-and-white striped lighthouse, in operation since the
mid-19th century. The town's Food Market and the railway monument
are other places of interest
This seafaring town offers the visitor an extensive coastline
stretching some 34 kilometres, a fact which, when combined
with an enviable average temperature, makes it one of the
main tourist destinations in the Murcia region. We can find
solitary coves and beaches with crystal-clear water, such
as La Higuerica, La Carolina or Calabardina; urban beaches,
such as Las Delicias; and one of the best areas on the Mediterranean
coast for scuba diving, thanks to some excellent rocky sea
beds, above all on Fraile island and in the area around the
rock of Cape Cope.
The area around Aguilas has other places of striking beauty,
such as the Cuatro Calas Protection Area.
From among the calendar of festivals held in Aguilas, it
is worth highlighting its Carnival, declared to be of National
Tourist Interest.
Nine Hole Golf Course
A nine hole mini-golf course is next to the Aparthotel. The
Aparthotel will offer a reception with telephone service to
each apartment should the owner want to contact reception
for any reason. There will be a bar and restaurant as well.
It must be stated that this is not a hotel open to the public,
it has been given the name Aparthotel because of the features
it offers. The aparthotel has a reception and bar-restaurant
and an ample swimming pool. The apartments come fully furnished.
