Finca el Rio, The Studio self catering with pool and hydrotherapy jacuzzi is a countryside stay in Guaro, Spain, set within beautiful gardens off the A366 Carretera Coin 51.2 kms. The studio format suits travellers who want privacy and independence, with air conditioning for warm days and a terrace for quieter moments at the end of the evening. One of the biggest draws is the on-site hydrotherapy jacuzzi, where you can unwind after time in the surrounding hills, and the private pool adds another option for slow, self-paced relaxation.
