Unbelievable Cave House in Spain with Breathtaking Views!
Unbelievable Cave House: Seriously, Is This Real Life? (Rambling Review with Breathtaking Views!)
Okay, so let me tell you about this place… Unbelievable Cave House in Spain with Breathtaking Views. And, honestly, unbelievable doesn't even begin to cover it. I'm still half-expecting a rogue hobbit to peek out from behind a rock, asking for second breakfast.
First, the Basics (Because, Adulting)
- Accessibility: Okay, so the "cave" part might make you think, "Not for me, thanks," if you're using a wheelchair. But, and this is HUGE, they actually do have facilities. I'm talking Facilities for disabled guests mentioned, which is a relief in these old-world places. I need to inquire more of their specific Accessibility. Also, the Elevator is included.
- Internet (Thank God!): Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! Whew. Panic averted. Internet access – wireless, Internet access – LAN… they’ve covered all the bases. I need to check later if I can be a geeky and set up the Laptop workspace for me. They also have Wi-Fi for special events too.
- Cleanliness and Safety (Because COVID is Still a Thing): Listen, I’m a germaphobe. This place? They get it. Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Rooms sanitized between stays, the works. They even have "Professional-grade sanitizing services." Honestly, I felt safer here than in my own apartment. Hand sanitizer everywhere. And, bless their hearts, they removed Shared stationery. Seriously, genius move. Also, Individually-wrapped food options and Safe dining setup – I'm here for it. And they had Staff trained in safety protocol. Felt comforted.
Now, for the GOOD Stuff… The Stuff That Makes You Go "WHOA!"
This place is not just a hotel. It's an experience. Let's be clear. It's an experience you'll be bragging about for YEARS.
- The Views. Oh. My. God. The Views… Breathtaking? Understatement of the century. You wake up, throw open your window that opens, and BAM. Mountains. Valleys. Sunlight spilling across the landscape like liquid gold. I actually shed a tear the first morning. (Don't judge me, okay? It's been a rough year). I spent a lot of time with my Terrace in the morning, just staring. And getting my tan. Totally worth it.
- R & R Central: This is where my soul did a happy dance. Spa/sauna, Pool with view, Massage… I basically lived in the spa. The Sauna was divine. And the Steamroom? Forget about it. My pores have never been so happy. I even tried a Body scrub and Body wrap. (Note to self: invest in more comfortable robes). I did not however check the Foot bath, missed this one.
- The Pool (Swimming pool [outdoor], Swimming pool): Okay, the pool with a view is pure magic. I'm not a huge pool person, usually, but this one… I spent hours there. Dipping and just taking in the view. They also have a Poolside bar so you can get your drink.
- Dining (Cue the Drool): This is where the "cave" gives way to pure indulgence. The Restaurants are amazing, offering and À la carte in restaurant, Asian breakfast, Asian cuisine in restaurant, Breakfast [buffet], Breakfast service, Buffet in restaurant, Coffee/tea in restaurant, Coffee shop, Desserts in restaurant, International cuisine in restaurant, Poolside bar, Salad in restaurant, Soup in restaurant, Vegetarian restaurant, Western breakfast, Western cuisine in restaurant. The Room service [24-hour] is dangerous. I lost count of how many tiny bottles of wine I ordered. And the Snack bar? Perfect for those late-night hunger pangs. Oh, and the Happy hour! Let's just say, the staff got to know me well. I'd have paid well for them to serve me Breakfast in Room every day.
The Little Things That Made Me Go "Awww" and "HMMM…"
- The Room: My room was a cave, but updated! Air conditioning, bathtub, blackout curtains (essential), coffee/tea maker, daily housekeeping (bows down!), extra long bed (thank god), mini bar (also dangerous), safe box…and more. The decor was all perfectly curated, with the Room decorations.
- Services That Actually Serve: Concierge, Doorman, Dry cleaning, Laundry service, Luggage storage. All the little things that make travelling so much easier. Car park [free of charge] Car park [on-site], what a luxury. The Airport transfer was a good thing to have.
- The "Extras": Babysitting service (didn't use it, but good to know!), Business facilities (nope), Gift/souvenir shop (a little pricey, but cute things!), Hair dryer, Ironing service, Safe deposit boxes and Safety/security feature.
- For the Family: Family/child friendly, Kids meal, Babysitting service and Kids facilities, all mentioned in the description.
Now for the "Real Talk" (Because Perfection is Boring)
- I did run into a few minor hiccups. The Internet access speed was a bit spotty at times (but hey, who needs to work in paradise, right?)
- Okay, the Cash withdrawal was a bit pricey and it was a few Euros to use the ATM.
- Didn't use the Gym/fitness, and the Fitness center was nothing like I needed.
- I wish I had more time to explore the Shrine.
- The Breakfast takeaway service was not offered.
- The Couple's room did not match what I needed.
- I saw Fire extinguisher everywhere.
- I wished they offered CCTV outside property.
- There was no sign of Pets allowed.
- No Bike parking.
- I have no idea where or how to request Invoice provided.
- No Car power charging station.
- I didn't found the best Proposal spot.
- Meetings and Seminars were not my thing.
- The Hotel chain was not mention.

Escape to Paradise: Unbelievable Villa Bejar in Tequesquitengo, Mexico!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups. We're diving HEADFIRST into a "travel itinerary" for the Preciosa Casa Cueva con Vistas Espectaculares in Macisvenda, Spain. Prepare for a messy, glorious, and utterly real experience. This isn't your sanitized brochure, folks. This is life.
Operation: Macisvenda Madness! (Or, “When will I ever not be covered in dust?”)
Day 1: Arrival, Apathy, and the Awesome View (with a side of existential dread)
- Morning (or Whenever I Finally Wake Up After That Brutal Flight): Arrive in Murcia. Try to look like you’ve showered recently (lie). Rental car pickup. The Spanish rental car experience: a thrilling game of "Will the GPS Actually Work?" (Spoiler: Probably Nope.) Drive to Macisvenda. GPS yelling at me in a rapid-fire Spanish I barely understand, while I'm pretty sure I’m circling a cow pasture. First impressions of the landscape: dusty, hot, and utterly breathtaking. I mean, seriously. The view. It's the whole reason we're here, right? That panoramic vista from the cave house…yeah, worth the potential for car-related existential crises.
- Afternoon: Find the Casa Cueva. Pray to the travel gods it's actually where the map thinks it is. Unpack. Immediately feel like I need to unpack again. That luggage, I SWEAR, is multiplying in the car. Survey the cave house. "Spectacular views" is an understatement. The pictures? They don't do it justice. It's like living in a postcard. But then… the dust. Oh, the dust. It's everywhere. I start to wonder if I’ll ever be clean again. Start to unpack again, slowly and reluctantly.
- Late Afternoon/Early Evening: Wander around the nearby village. Try (and fail) to order coffee. My Spanish is appalling, but the locals are patient and charming. I get a coffee, eventually. The sheer peace of it all. The quiet. The lack of… everything. (Okay, almost everything, though there is a local shop, thank goodness.)
- Evening: Attempt to cook. I had grand plans of a gourmet meal. Reality: spaghetti with questionable sauce and a bottle of cheap, but delicious, Rioja. Watch the sunset. Honestly, the sunset ALONE is worth the price of admission. Feel overwhelmed by the beauty. Start to unwind a little. That existential dread? Fading…slowly. Write a journal entry. Complain about the dust.
Day 2: Market Mania & (Almost) Getting Lost (and Loving It)
- Morning: Head to a local market. Armed with my terrible Spanish and a desperate hope for some fresh produce. The market is a sensory explosion: vibrant colors, incredible smells, the rapid-fire chatter of vendors, the feeling of being genuinely, wonderfully lost. I buy way too much fruit and a mysterious cheese I can't identify. Probably shouldn't have skipped breakfast.
- Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Get lost. On purpose. Drive down a random dirt track. No signal, no GPS, just me, the car, and the vast, beautiful emptiness of the Spanish countryside. See a farmer on a donkey. Actually, the farmer sees me looking utterly bewildered. He points me vaguely in a direction, and I decide that's the general direction I'll be headed. Embrace the chaos. Realize I love traveling solo, because I can happily get lost in space and time.
- Afternoon: Picnic with my market haul. On top of a random hill. With the “spectacular views.” It's almost too much. The cheese is actually amazing. The sun is beating down, but I don't care. Complete. Pure. Joy.
- Early Evening: Attempt to replicate a Spanish recipe I found online (key word: attempt). Fail spectacularly. Eat the evidence. Get a weird pang of homesickness for, of all things, reliable food!
Day 3: Doubling Down on Delight: The Cave House and the View
- Morning: Honestly, I wake up. I don't know when – it's like living inside a cloud of bliss. Then, I sit. I sit hard. I plant myself on the terrace, with a coffee (learned a thing or two about making good coffee), a book (probably unfinished, but I'm trying), and just… stare. At the mountains. At the cave. At the sheer, stupid beauty.
- Late Morning/Early Afternoon: Wander inside the cave. Yeah, yeah, "a home within a cave" is the description, but it's more than that. It's… serene. Cool. Like it’s breathing. It smells good, dry, earthy. Check out the natural history of the caves: The formation of the rocks and stones. The old and historical nature of the cave. How the cave provides shelter.
- Afternoon: Make lunch. Eat outside. Look. Repeat. I tell you, I look and look and look.
- Late Afternoon/Early Evening: Find the perfect spot—this time, for just me. A quiet spot just a little further out. Stare at the view and contemplate Life. I spend the last hours of the day out there, in the cool air, which seems to grow crisp at dusk. Then, finally, I watch the sunset. The color of the sky changes, from golds to violets to reds. It's like it turns into a painter's palette of brilliance. I don't care if I've seen it before. I don't care if I'll see it again. It's perfect.
- Evening: Watch the stars. (If I can stay awake, that is). The stars. Oh, the stars. The air is crisp, the silence is total. I might actually cry a little. Or a lot. Probably both. This entire day is a double-down. I will never forget this feeling.
Day 4: Adventure (Sort Of) & The Dust Dilemma
- Morning: Attempt some sort of "cultural experience." Visit a local church. Get lost in the town. Try to understand a bit about the culture. The church. The art. The local community. It's… fascinating. I feel a bit like an intruder, but everyone is so kind. Admire the architecture, soak up the history and feel like I was at the center of something important.
- Afternoon: The Great Dust Battle of Macisvenda. Clean. Seriously, I attempt to fight the dust. I can't remember the last time I have seen my own skin. I am fairly certain, I have actually become the dust. Contemplate moving out.
- Evening: Reward myself with another bottle of wine.
- Night: Watch the stars. Cry again.
Day 5: Departure (and The Sadness of Leaving)
- Morning: Pack. The utter and complete horror of repacking everything. Attempt to clean. Fail again. Wander around in a daze. Say goodbye to the cave house. Say goodbye to the view. Feel a very, very profound sadness.
- Afternoon: Drive back to Murcia. Reflect. On the dust. On the beauty. On the incredible, messy, imperfect, utterly unforgettable experience.
- Evening: Return rental car. Head to airport. Board the plane. Start planning my return trip. Already missing the dust.
Quirky Observations:
- The siesta is real.
- Spanish people are incredibly kind, even when you're butchering their language.
- The cave house is probably haunted by past travelers who also battled copious amounts of dust. Perhaps they'll welcome me to the club (after I've survived this trip).
- Rioja is the answer to almost every problem.
- I am, apparently, capable of surviving on coffee, cheese, and the sheer force of the view.
- I should have packed more dust cloths.
Emotional Reactions:
- Joy. Overwhelm. Frustration. A deep sense of peace. A little bit of existential dread. A whole lot of awe. And an overwhelming desire to return. Maybe with better Spanish and a super-powered dust buster. But probably not. Because, you know, the dust is part of the magic. And the mess… well, that's just life, isn't it?
Okay, So... This Cave House. Is it REALLY as jaw-dropping as those photos? Because... filters are a *thing*.
Alright, let's be brutally honest, because let me tell you, I went there with a healthy dose of skepticism. I'd seen the photos. That *vista*? Unbelievable. But... you know. Instagram. My expectations were tempered, let's just say.
Walking out onto that terrace the first time? Yeah. My jaw *literally* dropped. Like, I'm pretty sure I made a sound that was a cross between a gasp and a strangled chicken. It's real. It's *more* real. The pictures, as stunning as they are, don't capture the *smell* of the pine trees in the wind, the way the light shifts across the valley... It's overwhelming. In a good way. The kind of overwhelming that makes you question all your life choices (in a good way, generally. Unless you're having a particularly existential crisis, which... fair warning, it might ramp up the drama a bit).
I spent, like, a good hour just staring. My husband, God bless him, was probably rolling his eyes. But he gets me. He knew I needed it. He'd been working too much and I knew he needed that moment as well. We were both, quite frankly, a mess of tired and stressed and suddenly, bam! The universe just hit us with a giant, beautiful, "chill the heck out" stick. So yes, the views... they're real. And they're spectacular. Believe the hype.
I'm intrigued. How do I actually, you know, *stay* there? Booking, pricing, the works... spill the beans!
Okay, logistics. This is where things get a little... less dreamy, and a little more *real world*. Booking, you'll have to do your own detective work. I can't just give you the *exact* link, because I don't want to be responsible for a mass booking frenzy and then miss out myself! Let's just say, look around. Search for "cave house Spain [your preferred area]".
The pricing? It's not *cheap*. That kind of view and that level of unique experience comes with a premium. Expect to pay a decent chunk, especially during peak season. But, honestly? Worth it. Think of it as an investment in your sanity. And yes, if you are looking at the one I experienced, a bit more than you might want to commit. But let me tell you, it's nice to be able to splurge once in a while.
The other thing to think about is: Getting there. Rent a car. Seriously. You'll need serious faith in your own driving skills, as the roads can be... interesting. Narrow, winding, some cliff edges. A little scary. My wife was gripping the "Oh My God handle" the entire time. I felt like I was in a James Bond film, only without the suave demeanor. But the good news is the roads offer such beautiful views that you don't mind. You get used to it though. But seriously, don't try and drive it at night for the first time. Just trust me on this one. It helps to not be scared of heights because you will be going up and down mountain roads.
What's the Wi-Fi situation like? (Because, let's be honest, we live in the internet age…)
Okay, this is a crucial question. Wi-Fi. Or, as the case may be, *lack of* Wi-Fi. It's not a guarantee. And when it is, it can be... let's call it "rustic." Think of it like a moody teenager. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not, and sometimes it's just plain determined to make you miserable.
The cave I stayed in (which I won't specifically name, because I'm being protective of the secrets!) had Wi-Fi, technically. It worked sometimes. Mostly, it allowed me to send a grainy photo of the view to annoy everyone on social media, get a quick glance at your emails while on vacation, and if it worked, to make that one phone video call that you promised yourself you could do.
My advice? Embrace the digital detox. Forced digital detoxes are good for the soul. Download your essential maps and directions *beforehand*. Tell people you might be "off the grid" and then use that as an excuse to not respond to emails when you're actually just lounging on the terrace, staring at the sunset with a glass of wine. It's liberating, believe me.
Living in a cave... Isn’t it dark? And, like, *cold*? What's it *actually* like inside?
Ah, the *cave* part. This is where it gets really interesting. Yes, caves can be dark. But this particular cave house? It was surprisingly bright. Cleverly positioned windows (and doors), let in tons of natural light, which makes it more of a natural beauty. And it's got good lighting... so you're not fumbling around in the dark, which is always helpful.
Cold? No. The cave itself is a natural insulator. It stays remarkably cool in the summer and relatively warm in the winter. Think of it as nature's air conditioning/heating system. It's honestly brilliant. I was prepared to be freezing but it's surprisingly pleasant.
The inside is a revelation. Forget your preconceptions of damp, cramped, prehistoric dwellings. This place was tastefully decorated, with all the modern comforts. The kitchen, for instance, was fantastic. And the bathroom? Not a dank, dusty cave. A modern, well-appointed one. There was a great shower and plenty of space to spread out and feel very comfortable.
One thing I will admit: the echoes. Everything echoes. So, conversations at midnight are a bit of a risk if you need to be quiet. And dropping something usually ends with a "BOOM!" sound. Which is funny the first few times. But after a while, you learn to tread carefully. But it's a small trade off for the sheer coolness of living in a cave. It's a unique experience, to be sure.
Okay, let's talk about the *views* again. What's it like to wake up to THAT?
The views. Oh, the views. This deserves its own section, because... wow. Imagine waking up. Eyes still crusty from sleep. You stumble out of bed and... BAM. The entire valley laid out before you. Mountains in the distance, a patchwork of green and brown fields below, and the sky... oh, the sky. It’s as if they've perfected the sky in this area.
Honestly, it's a bit overwhelming. It's *too* beautiful. Your brain can'Jet Set Hotels
