Sidi Ifni

LoginSave

Formerly the headquarters of the Spanish navy, this art-deco clifftop mansion has superb views of the Atlantic. Charming owners Benoit and Dominique have adorned many rooms with heritage art-deco furniture and local art, and shared breakfasts (included) and dinners (€15) are enjoyed in a shaded garden populated by a posse of tortoises. Bathrooms are relatively compact.

Ask Dominique about looking through the photo albums crammed with poignant images of Sidi Ifni's relatively recent Spanish heritage.
