Some of these paradores are located in mountainous regions, ideal for adventure sports, environmental activities, sampling the unique local food and customs. Others may be located near the coast, on scenic cliff-tops from which you get a panoramic view of sea and sky. These paradores usually have private beaches and the staff can arrange private cruises along the picturesque coastline, with stops are the pretty and quaint fishing villages that nestle along the sea-shore. Whatever the location, this is a certainly a vacation with a difference.

Another advantage of these paradores is that you are given a wonderful insight into the life and times of Spanish aristocracy and royalty.
