CANDELARIA EXPERIENCE – MADRID’S SPECIAL RETREAT

Really closed to Madrid City, there is Candelaria Experience, this hotel is born from the willing to share the enthusiasm for life and their passion for nature and sports at the spectacular Sierra de Gredos. In the southern part of Gredos, you will find amazing landscapes full of oaks, small lakes and crystalline waterfalls descending directly from the highest peak, the Almanzor.

All of this makes the majestic mountain range of Gredos an authentic paradise for its flora and the most important species of its fauna: The Hispanic wild goat. This area is very special, not only because of its particular microclimate that has very pleasant temperatures during the whole year, but also because of the numerous interesting places which influenced our history, art and tradition such as The Old Roman Road (in Puerto del Pico), The Grottos called Las Cuevas del Águila and nearby traditional towns as Candeleda or El Barco de Ávila. Cant miss it if you play golf in Madrid!

They’ve designed five different types of rooms, five different options with heir own identity. That way, every time you come back is like a whole new experience all over again

But what really makes it special is the variety of activities that they offer their guests to enjoy in the heart of pure nature. It’s a unique environment destined to make you experience new sensations. Activities such as: horse ridding routes, picnic deep inside the forest of Gredos, water sky, wake-board; and if you are a more experienced rider you can play Polo matches or just love treasure unforgettable memories by flying in a light aircraft.

Maybe you are not such an adventurer and you are looking more of a calm and relaxed time. For that they have a paddle tennis court, a small golf course a gorgeous swimming pool, routes you can do hiking or by bicycle or just spend your day at he spa. Boredom is definitely not in the menu!
