La Escondida Hotel & Restaurant - Penáguila, Alicante, Spain

Activities abound at La Escondida

A recently-renovated indoor pool with experienced spa therapists, and a brand new outdoor pool for the sun worshipers are sufficient temptations to keep you at Escondida for as long as your stay.

But for the more energetic there is a vast array of activities that can be arranged via the hotel: walking, mountain biking, fishing, horse riding, golf, hunting, clay pigeon shooting, sight-seeing and days out to villages and nearby places of natural beauty to name but a few.

Escondida's surrounding woodlands are also rich in animal life - wild boar, deer and the rare Iberian lynx roam the land - and you'll also spot an abundance of different bird life, including golden eagles - a species rarely seen in Europe.

Swimming

We have two swimming pools. Our indoor heated swimming pool opens to nature in the warmer months and our new stunning outdoor pool is wonderfully set in beautifully landscaped gardens. Well-qualified therapists will bring you back to life in our spa and 2 treatment rooms.

Spa

Two treatment rooms offering all types of massages, body scrubs plus pedicures and manicures.

Horse Riding

Stunning horses can be brought to our front door - from there you can head out for a short ride around our land or take a picnic and trek for half a day. We are in perfect riding country in the middle of olive and almond groves in untouched countryside, most of which is protected national park. All levels of expertise.

Mountain biking, cycling and hiking trails

This is one of the best areas in Spain for cycling and mountain biking. We offer bespoke tours catering to all levels from beginner to extreme, which take you through stunning scenery, across all types of terrain and through famous national parks. Our professional expert with 25 years experience knows the area well and has been a climber, mountaineer, hiker and mountain biker since his youth.

Info

La Escondida Hotel & Restaurant

Welcome to a part of Spain that we all dream of finding but fear no longer exists. Welcome to Hotel La Escondida. Welcome to The Hideaway. Somewhere out there is the madness: the snarling traffic; the sweating cities; the rush hours; the rat race. But it isn't here. It isn't in this heavenly place where the most crushing sound you'll hear is...silence. Where a circle of sweeping mountains keeps the mayhem away, where the landscape is only broken by olive groves, breathtaking forests and occasional glimpses of whitewashed villages dotted haphazardly around 360 degrees of unbroken natural beauty.
