“The family-run atmosphere strikes me as a real point of difference in San Pedro de Alcántara. I picture starting the day with breakfast, then heading to the beach, knowing a simple, clean room waits, and the rooftop terrace offers views not common at this price. It's a solid base for exploring the area, with an authentic Spanish feel.”
