The cave house

Sleep beneath the hillside, in natural caves, with every comfort you need.

View from the terrace over the Alhambra woods and the houses of the neighbourhood

Cueva de Lindaraja is a charming holiday home in the iconic Sacromonte neighbourhood. It enjoys superb views of the Alhambra and the Sabika hill, with the Generalife and its gardens.

What makes it special is that the bedrooms are genuine natural caves, so the experience is one of a kind. It also has a two-level terrace looking out at the Alhambra, perfect for making the most of Granada’s lovely weather, and the neighbourhood is close to the city centre with good public transport links.

Next door to the Albayzín, the Sacromonte is a romantic neighbourhood steeped in tradition, with plenty of stories to tell and a wide choice of places to eat, drink and go out. Discover it all by staying at Cueva de Lindaraja.

The essentials

Cueva de Lindaraja is a cave house that sleeps 4. It has a living room, kitchen, bathroom, two terraces and three bedrooms inside the traditional caves.

The house is fully equipped, with a cot and high chair for little ones.
No pets and no smoking.
Access for people with reduced mobility is limited. There are about 30 steps up from the street to the house, and there are stairs inside too.
Car access to the neighbourhood is restricted to residents and only opens to everyone else at certain times. Parking is also scarce: there’s street parking about 100 metres from the house, but few spaces. If you’re coming by car, we recommend leaving it outside the neighbourhood and getting around by public transport: there’s a bus stop a one-minute walk from the house.
