Costa Cálida |
The holiday homes rented out by Villagrande are mainly located in rural, non urban areas.

The Costa Calida borders the province of Murcia (belonging to the Costa Blanca) in the north and the Costa Almeria in the south.
This approximately 250 km. long coastal wide sandy beaches are bathing 315 days a year in full sun. The Costa Calida offers access to two seas:
The Mediterranean Sea with its sandy beaches and wide variety of coastal landscapes and the Mar Menor or "small sea", the largest natural pool in the world.
The Mar Menor is separated from the Mediterranean Sea by a narrow peninsula of 22 kilometer long: La Manga del Mar Menor, a paradise for all kinds
of water sports. Within the limits of this coast, everything is possible. You can learn to sail, dive into one of the finest diving areas, walk through beautiful parks,
seek the benefits of the mud baths, or look for the intimacy of the small rocky bays. But it's not only sun and beach here.
The Costa Calida also houses archaeological treasures, including the recently discovered Roman theater near Cartagena (the main seaport).
There are numerous folk fairs, carnivals and festivals to visit.
Most of the Costa Calida is very rough and therefore not as overwhelmed by tourism as the Costa Blanca.
There are sand dunes, beaches, saltwater lagoons, mudflats and many facets of nature lovers. Not surprising therefore that some of these natural regions are protected area.
For centuries a natural flora and fauna is created which determined the image of the Costa.
Finally there is the exquisite Mediterranean cuisine which is based on a perfect combination of fish and seafood with natural products.
This together with the friendly and hospitable people makes the guest will feel completely at home here.
