Casa Rural Xauen, Belicena

Casa Rural Xauen is a countryside stay in Belicena, Spain, where the pace slows down without cutting you off from Granada’s landmarks. Located at 15 Avenida del Carmen, it suits travellers who want air-conditioned comfort in a quieter setting, with the practical benefit of discounted offsite parking. Guests often mention the calm, non-smoking environment and the way the terrace and BBQ facilities make evenings feel like part of the holiday rather than an afterthought. The swimming pool is a welcome reset on warm days, and the tour desk helps many visitors map their sightseeing so they spend less time planning and more time out. If you’re travelling with ski plans, the ski storage is a useful detail for seasonal trips to the Sierra Nevada area. Reviewers also tend to appreciate the straightforward on-site activities, including darts, which gives groups an easy option when the weather turns.

Cerro de la Encina is roughly 5 km from the property for a shorter outing, while Sierra Nevada National Park is around 30 km for nature-focused days.
