Located in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, Andalucia is one of the most diverse areas in Spain and remarkably bigger in size than some smaller European countries. Tourists renting holiday villas in Andalucia usually fly into either of its international airports situated in Malaga and Seville.
This area is so vast that you can experience entirely different types of holidays because of the terrain, which includes stunning beaches, tropical forests, snow capped mountains in the Sierra Nevada, Guadalquivir river, volcanic landscapes in the Tabernas desert and man made towns and cities. Take your pick from traditional beach holidays at the coast in Malaga and surrounding areas to skiing, bird watching, hiking and even horse riding activities in the Sierra Nevada. There are even short break vacations available in cities such as Seville, which despite retaining its unique charm is quietly sophisticated. There are of course many architectural sites in Seville worth mentioning such as the Cathedral and the old Jewish quarter that are worth exploring.
