Aguadulce is one of my favourite places in the whole world and this apartment was my home base whilst I travelled around the world for several years. Check out a video of Aguadulce (and the apartment block, here: https://vimeo.com/94331837 )
Almeria is considered the 'bread basket of Europe' as a huge percentage of the vegetables are grown here. Almeria receives more sunlight than any other part of Europe and has it's own micro-climate.

Notes
Aguadulce is one of my favourite places in the whole world and this apartment was my home base whilst I travelled around the world for several years. It's a beautiful little town with miles and miles of amazing beaches. The food is some of the best I've ever eaten and all incredibly affordable.
The summer months (End of June to beginning of September) things get a bit wild as all the Spanish flock here for their vacations. But then it drops off suddenly and normality returns for the rest of the year. Even in the winter months it's still very sunny and never gets cold (for an English person at least)
Almeria is considered the 'bread basked of Europe' as a huge percentage of the vegetables are grown here. Almeria receives more sunlight than any other part of Europe and has it's own micro-climate.
Malaga and Granada are both two hours away by car. You can take a day trip and go skiing/snowboarding in Sierra Nevada. There's also great Kite-surfing spots close to the apartment if that's your thing.

Neighbourhood
Miles and miles of beautiful beaches, funky beach bars, a busy tourist port and loads and loads of tapas restaurants of many kinds (mexican, argentinian, peruvian etc etc).
Getting to my home
Aguadulce isn't the best connected place in Spain (hence why it's a diamond in the rough). Trains run from most major cities to Almeria but they're a bit slow.
Almeria airport has regular flights to many European and Spanish cities.
Nearest airport
Almeria airport is 30 minutes away, Malaga is 2 hours.
Getting around
There is a huge supermarket in the same building as the apartments as well as three great restaurants. The rest of the town is walkable. Public transport into Almeria is okay but not great. Car rental is pretty affordable and there is a big underground parking space available for you.

Adam, Gabi and the boys were super respectful of our home and we’d love to welcome them again.
We had an amazing two week stay at Sean and Eliza’s home. They were responsive and courteous, and we worked out exactly which dates would work for us.
The house is perfect, spotlessly clean, and functional. The beds were very comfortable. We really enjoyed the next-door prospect park and the outdoor Japanese BBQ area. The space is tranquil and conveniently located next to Manhattan. Even though there are neighboring apartments, it's all very well designed for privacy. The house is well located and is an easy walk away from beautiful trails and shops. If you are into running and biking, prospect park lake is perfect and there are farmers markets and food truck festivals a walk away. We also had some day trips to Luna Park and the Bronx Zoo and they were both amazing. We didn't explore Brookyln as much as we originally planned, but it felt right to slow down and enjoy the house and the local area. Thank you so much Sean and Eliza and also special thank you to your son! All the best, Adam and family
Sean and Eliza's family were the perfect guests. They are welcome back anytime!
