We had a fabulous stay at La Casa Grande. The room was a highlight of our time in Arcos de la Frontera. It was beautifully decorated and our private double-decker balcony overlooking the valley was stunning. We got to see the full moon from our balcony as well as from the beautiful rooftop terrace. It was an exquisite view. Ellen greeted us on arrival and departure and was very friendly and welcoming. We had a delicious homemade breakfast that sent us on our way with a full tummy and a smile. She good!! Word of warning about getting there: Be sure to find out where the parking lot is at the bottom of town and find your way to that without driving through town. Avoid AT ALL COSTS driving to the front door of La Casa Grande as Google Maps will try to lead you to do. You want to avoid at all costs driving into town! The streets are just a couple of inches wider than the side mirrors and can be very uncomfortable to drive, if not impossible for anyone who is not a local. We would call them walking alleys, but they consider them streets for driving. When you see the sign that says, “do not enter unless you are a resident” (in Spanish), BELIEVE it and turn around!!
