La Encarnación tourist apartments in Los Alcázares

Affordable seafront accommodation in Los Alcázares for golfers, water sports enthusiasts and other visitors to the Mar Menor

Guaranteed lowest prices when booking via here!

While tourism in much of the Costa Cálida relies almost exclusively on the busy summer months, in the Mar Menor area and on the golf resorts within easy driving distance the opposite is true!

Golf courses, of course, are open all year round, and in fact many golfers planning a trip to sunny Spain prefer to avoid the heat of summer and enjoy a little sunshine in during the autumn, winter and spring. This is when for early starters 27 or even 36 holes are feasible on a variety of courses including desert and Mediterranean landscaping, Nicklaus and Dave Thomas designed layouts and interesting challenges for all, whether playing off scratch or with a high handicap!

At the same time, the calm water and prevailing breezes of the Mar Menor, the largest saltwater lagoon in Europe, mean that sailors and kitesurfers flock to the area throughout the year. Numerous international competitions are held around the lagoon, but it is also an ideal place for beginners to learn the skills needed to become proficient in various water sports – the maximum depth of the Mar Menor is only 6 metres!

One of the towns benefitting most from this year-round activity is Los Alcázares. This is not a town where the seafront restaurants shut from autumn until Easter, as is shown by the range of restaurants to be found in the centre and in the area of Los Narejos: the international nature of the community is shown by the list of Top 20 Restaurants on TripAdvisor, which features local Mediterranean cuisine (don't miss out on the Mar Menor seafood!) alongside Indian, Mexican, Chineses, Bulgarian, Italian, British and Dutch restaurants as well as at least one Irish bar!

Apartamentos Turísticos La Encarnación

For these reasons the tourist accommodation in Los Alcázares is well used all year round, and the Apartamentos Turísticos La Encarnación are among the most popular. They supply 1-, 2- and 3-bedroomed accommodation, the most sought-after being the 2-bed apartments on the seafront promenade in the centre of Los Alcázares. These are located next to the old La Encarnación hotel which is the oldest establishment of its kind in the Region of Murcia, having opened in 1904, and jutting out into the water is the old bathing station of San Antonio, now converted into a popular restaurants supported by stilts over the water of the lagoon!

All are fully equipped with bed linen and kitchen appliances (although with the variety of eating-out options you might not be tempted to explore the self-catering option too far!) and many enjoy panoramic views out over the Mar Menor as well as being conveniently placed to sample the local social life and enjoy a stroll along the shore.

The best prices you can find

Prices are easily affordable at 65 euros per night for a 1-bed apartment, 85 euros for a 2-bed and 115 euros for a 3-bed. AND THESE PRICES ARE GUARANTEED ALL YEAR ROUND FOR OUR READERS – just quote “MURCIA TODAY” when making your booking!

Nearby golf courses

Equally important for many, the choice of golf courses within easy driving distance is, quite simply, enormous. The best-known are the three at La Manga Club, around half an hour ago, but the emergence of golf resorts in Murcia around 25 years ago means that there is a proliferation of options, some just a 3-wood and a goof 5-iron away! The closest are La Serena, Mar Menor Golf Resort and Roda Golf, and other popular options are La Torre, Los Saurines, El Valle and Terrazas de la Torre.

Still under an hour away are the Condado de Alhama Signature course, Hacienda del Álamo and Camposol, still all in the Region of Murcia, and only a few kilometres north you’re in the southern Costa Blanca, where the nearest courses are Lo Romero, Las Ramblas, Villamartín, Campoamor and Las Colinas!

Affordable beach front accommodation in the heart of Murcia golf and water sports country!

The accommodation offered for rental by Apartamentos La Encarnación in the heart of Los Alcázares are a great opportunity for visitors to the Costa Cálida to enjoy the very best of the Mar Menor and surrounding area all year round, and at extremely affordable prices.

Guests are accommodated in the apartments located on the seafront next to the historic Hotel La Encarnación, which was built in the early 20^th century to cater for the emerging spa tourism market and is now the oldest hotel still open in the Region of Murcia. This area remains much favoured by expats from the UK and other northern European countries and all of the apartments are a short stone’s throw of the Mar Menor, the largest saltwater lagoon in Europe, making these true front-line beach properties!

Most of them have two bedrooms and can comfortably sleep 4, while 1- and 3-bedroom options are also available, and special year-round discount prices are available for readers of Murcia Today and associated pages by simply quoting the reference “MURCIA TODAY” when booking! (65€ for 1-bed, 85€ for 2-bed, 115€ for 3-bed, all prices per night).

All apartments are fully equipped with electrical appliances, kitchenware, bathroom and bed linen, and although they are self-catering guests often prepare to eat out locally at extremely affordable prices – Los Alcázares is not one of those beach resorts which closes down for the off season, and most restaurants are open all year round both in the town centre and in Los Narejos.

At the same time, they are within a short drive of at least 25 golf courses, right in the heart of Costa Cálida golf country and only slightly further from the southern Costa Blanca. The most prestigious courses are arguably those at La Manga Club and Hacienda del Álamo (both around half an hour by car) while the closest are those of La Serena, Mar Menor Golf Resort and Roda Golf, all just a 10-minute drive away. If you venture just slightly further north the options include Lo Romero, Villamartín, Las Ramblas and Las Colinas, all providing stiff challenges for all levels of golfer!

But don’t imagine that the sporting activities in the area are limited to golf! The calm waters and prevailing breezes in the Mar Menor make for ideal conditions in which to learn water sports, including sailing and kiteboarding, and plenty of aquatic sports centres are available along the inland shore of the lagoon all year round for those wishing to try their hand at mastering the seas!

Whatever your preferences while visiting the Mar Menor area, the La Encarnación apartments in Los Alcázares and Los Narejos give you a comfortable, practical and affordable place to stay while enjoying the many delights of the Costa Cálida!
