Located near Loja in the heart of the Andalusia, La Bobadilla is a hotel inspired by its surroundings. Built in the style of a traditional Mediterranean village, the resort is made up of a cluster of white-washed houses, sun-dappled courtyards and breezy sitting areas under brick-vaulted arches. The presidential suites even echo aspects of the Alhambra fort and nearby Mosque of Cordoba. The sprawling estate is also a pioneer when it comes to eco-awareness in the region. Bobadilla uses a thermal biomass system in place of gas, drastically reducing CO2 emissions. Naturally, the area is a playground for outdoor activities, including quad biking, mountain biking and trekking, though foodies are equally entertained thanks to caviar and olive oil tastings that can be arranged at the hotel's gourmet restaurant, La Finca.
