Tesorillo, Almuñécar Overview
Tesorillo is located in Almuñécar, Spain. Rated 8.2 out of 10 based on 8 guest reviews.
Tesorillo is a family-friendly stay in Almuñécar, Spain, set in the Urbanización El Tesorillo area on Es Paseo de Velilla, Zona Norte Bis,1 A. With an overall guest rating of 8.2/10 from a small set of reviews, the common thread is straightforward comfort: travelers mention clean, well-kept rooms and appreciate that the property follows local safety protocols and disinfects guest rooms between stays. The on-site restaurant and terrace make it easy to eat and unwind without building your day around transport, while the outdoor swimming pool is a practical option for cooling off between beach outings. Air conditioning helps when the coast heats up, and non-smoking rooms and non-smoking throughout keep the atmosphere comfortable for everyone.
Location-wise, you’re positioned for coastal time in the Velilla–Tamaray stretch, with Velilla Beach and El Tesorillo Beach within roughly a kilometer, so short walks work for mornings and late afternoons. If you want a change of pace, the Castillo de San Miguel is about 6 km away, and Aquatropic Water Park is around 10 km, both good for a day trip that still feels close to home. Reviews also suggest it suits road-trip travelers: free parking is available, and the hotel notes discounted offsite parking rates if you need them.
Best for families and couples who want a calm base near the beaches, plus travelers who prefer simple, reliable comforts—pool time, a place to eat on-site, and easy parking—over a busy city-center routine.
