Practical tips:
- For groceries, the supermarket Spar at the entrance of the village Padul is very suitable.
- For big shopping in case of a longer stay, we recommend the Carrefour. Lies at the foot of exit Palacio de Congresos in Granada, cannot miss!
- For shopping in the city center of Granada, the car can be best parked in Parking San Anton, located immediately to the right when entering the Calle San Anton. There you can park reasonably cheap and the parking is easily accessible.

NEW: Nevada Shopping, a huge shopping center situated in Armilla at about 10 km from the house. More than 200 shops in all price ranges, food & drinks, cinema and an amusement hall for children!

This region offers something for everyone, here are some tips:

For culture lovers:
- Alhambra: this is really a must, a magnificent Moorish palace on the World Heritage List.
IMPORTANT: try to book tickets in advance on the internet, otherwise you have to line up early in the morning, hoping to get a ticket! If the site shows no availability, you can also buy the Granada Tourist Voucher, which also includes bus rides. You must then choose between a visit in the morning or in the afternoon.
NOTE: the time is stated to access the Palacio Nazaríes (inside the complex), NOT at the entrance of the complex itself!
- Albaycín: old town, with very authentic tapas occasions.
- Flamenco Show at the Sacromonte district: very passionate performance by gypsies, who loves well worth it!
