The Parador’s architecture is perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape of dunes and pine forests, characteristic of the Albufera Natural Park, which is the largest freshwater lake in Spain and an important wetland where you can see more than 300 different species of birds.
It provides easy access to the beach and Valencia, which is less than half an hour's drive away, with places of interest such as the Cathedral, the City of Arts and Sciences, the Malvarrosa beach and the city’s nightlife.
These surroundings of the Natural Park are also home to El Palmar, famous for its rice fields that Blasco Ibáñez portrayed so well, and where you can taste some of the best rice dishes in the province.
The city of Valencia is just half an hour away by car and offers places of interest such as its Cathedral, the City of Arts and Sciences, the Lonja, or the Barrio del Carmen with streets that you’ll love to get lost in as you discover its corners full of history, culture and cuisine. Also famous are its urban beaches, such as those of Cabanyal and Malvarrosa, within walking distance. Other nearby towns are Cullera (18 km) and Manises (25 km),
Golf
The Parador de El Saler golf course is considered one of the world's best golf courses by professionals and enthusiasts, institutions and the sports media. Built in 1968 by Javier Arana, an internationally acclaimed Spanish golf architect, it’s located in the El Saler Natural Park, on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea, in the Autonomous Region of Valencia.
Its design considers its integration in the protected landscape (non-native species of flora such as the famous "Cat's Claw), and its course runs through different zones, from beach links, similar to the famous Scottish golf courses, to areas with typical Mediterranean vegetation. It's total length is 6,042 m, split into 18 holes, with a par of 72. The club also has a golf school, practice ground, 3 putting greens, 2 approach greens, a pro-shop, club rental, electric trolleys and carts, and a snack-bar and restaurant.
The testimonials of professional and amateur players who have already played on this golf course guarantee that it is one of the 60 best courses in the world and the third best in Europe.
