A rural estate set on a cliff-flanked pebble beach, 1km east of Valle Gran Rey's harbour, Finca Argayall is no ordinary hotel: a tranquil garden-fringed centre focused on communal, alternative and ecofriendly living. Lodging options range from comfortable beach shacks to luxurious apartments with private pool, and there are near-daily meditation, yoga and pilates classes, plus massage and other therapies.
It’s a blissfully chilled-out place in which to loll about in hammocks, slip in and out of the pool or laze about on the beach. Most staff live on the premises, power is solar-generated and there are free tours of the finca open to all at 10am on Sunday.
