Just 4 minutes’ walk from San José Beach, this guest house in the Cabo de Gata Nature Reserve offers bright accommodation with free Wi-Fi.

All air-conditioned rooms at Hostal Puerto Genovés feature a blue-and-white décor and classic furnishings. Each has a private bathroom with bath tub. Some rooms are adapted for wheelchair users.

Great value and location close to the beach and restaurants. Very quiet, and it was great to have a private terrace. As a perk, the owner offered a free and very varied breakfast. There was also a dry climate garden with labeled plants and their country of origin. Very much enjoyed our stay and would gladly stay there again.

Casa Agua Marina, a property with free bikes and a shared lounge, is set in San José, less than 1 km from San Jose Beach, 38 km from Museum of Almeria, as well as 39 km from Andalusian Center of Photography. Spa facilities is available for guests, along with a solarium. The accommodation offers a hot tub, free WiFi throughout the property and family rooms.

Lovely view from breakfast table overlooking garden and pool and then across to the hills of the national park. Merche was very attentive at breakfast we were offered a selection of juices, a massive mug of milky coffee (our choice), cheese bread, homemade cakes and fresh fruit. More than enough for the start of the day....We were given our own patio area on the roof and when we had food delivered, Merche got us plates, glasses, cutlery, napkins, she was so sweet. One day we arrived back early and the goat herder was herding his goats past the back of the house. The house is on the edge of the National Park but still only 10 mins walk to the centre and beach of San Jose. Merche is interested in your plans for the day and offered us binoculars to take with us and has a book full of suggestions for sightseeing. Are rare treasure, especially for dog owners, where the dogs are also extremely well behaved.

Set in San José, just 400 metres from San Jose Beach, La Casa de Yiyi offers beachfront accommodation with free WiFi. The apartment has access to a restaurant. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

It is a super cute little house in a nice area of San José, and close to beaches. The owner was super helpful and friendly. He took time to explain things about the property and give us information about the area as well. It felt like we were living an authentic San José experience. The kitchen was well equipped, and we were happy to be able to do some laundry while there, even though we ended up hanging it to dry in the living room because there was a chance of rain! lol The town is small, and easily walkable from the property to explore many restaurants and shops. There is also a solid grocery store within walking distance.

    Basically all was perfect. To start with, fantastic nice, friendly and helpful hosts, you immediately feel welcome. Secondly, it is a lovely house, in quiet place, near the village, it is very clean and nicely decorated. Lovely garden with several options to relax on the sun beds next to the pool. Very good breakfast as a starter of your day. Adorable dogs, who gently welcome you when you return from your day trip. I would love to come back one day.

    This was wonderful! Took us a while to find it. Each unit is like a separate small villa with a terrace. The pool was great - and we had it to ourselves! Very quiet. The main building is beautiful, full of charm and character. We ate dinner in the dining room and for some reason were offered desserts after our starters! This is a vey Spanish hotel - not touristy so not much English (which is a good thing!) I must learn some more Spanish!
