Why we picked this hotel
Every stay comes with the natural park on the doorstep. That means mornings can begin on the coast, afternoons at the pool and evenings walking into Las Negras for dinner rather than organising another drive.
Hotel description
Inside Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, Las Negras Olivencia Natural sits between dark volcanic hills and the Mediterranean, with the fishing village and beach just a few minutes away on foot. Rooms open onto furnished terraces, while the outdoor pool creates an easy place to spend the hottest part of the day before the landscape draws you back outside. Come for mornings on Playa de las Negras, walks towards hidden coves and long drives through one of Spain’s wildest coastal landscapes. Back at the hotel, afternoons move between the pool and private terraces, with selected Junior Suites adding their own outdoor hot tubs. It is best for travellers who want the freedom of Cabo de Gata without giving up the comforts of a proper hotel.

This is great
Right inside Cabo de Gata
The hotel sits within Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, surrounded by volcanic landscapes and some of Almería’s wildest coastline.
The beach is minutes away
Playa de Las Negras is roughly a five-minute walk, making morning swims and sunset strolls wonderfully easy.
A pool made for slow afternoons
The outdoor pool is one of the hotel’s main draws, with a separate children’s pool for families.
Private terraces and sea views
The current official Olivencia site highlights private terraces and sea views as defining features of the stay.
Las Negras is easy to explore on foot
Restaurants, bars and the village waterfront are all close enough to reach without taking the car.
A brilliant base for the natural park
From here, it’s easy to explore nearby coves and villages while returning to somewhere quiet at the end of the day.
Our take on the stay
The location makes exploring Cabo de Gata unusually easy. Playa de las Negras is a few minutes away on foot, while Cala del Cuervo can be reached in roughly 15 minutes without getting in the car.
