The area boasts 322 days of sunshine annually, with an average of five hours daily, even in the winter (producing enviable tans year round). The sea is noticeably warmer than on the Costa del Sol. The air is so clean and clear that nearby Tabernas has been chosen as the site of an observatory.
THE HOTEL The complex has been built to a very comfortable 4-star standard. Generous use of glass and bright warm colours (with attractive local azulejo tiles everywhere) create a pleasing and relaxed environment for naturism.

FACILITIES The four wings of the hotel form a palm-shaded centre with the character of a village. The magnificent fresh-water swimming pool, with a flume for children, is surrounded by lots of sun loungers. The heated open-air jacuzzi is popular with people who want to chat! There are also showers for rinsing off, a children’s playground (with climbing frame, see-saw and swings), table tennis, garden chess, minigolf, shuffleboard and darts. Other facilities include a souvenir shop with international papers and a launderette with ironing equipment.

THE BEACH The Vera Playa Club has a wide stretch of sandy beach which has been officially designated for naturists’ use and which is nearly a mile long.

For youngsters, there’s a miniclub programme (June 1 to Sep 15) featuring gymnastics, crossbow, painting, games, boules and water polo.
The poolside terrace is floodlit at night (until midnight) and doubles as a disco and stage for flamenco shows, dancing, games, and cabaret.
