Parador de El Saler
El Saler, Valencia, Spain

Parador de El Saler sits beyond the urban centre in the coastal landscape of Albufera. Golf is central to its identity, but the modern accommodation, spa and proximity to the sea also suit a slower holiday. It offers a very different rhythm from an old-town hotel: make this the base when the course and natural surroundings are the point of the trip. Plan transport into Valencia rather than treating it as a city-centre address.
