Welcome to Orgiva, and Posada Santa Filomena. Our self-catering apartments are ideally located for you to enjoy your holiday. From our garden and terrace you may view the surrounding mountains and valley, but be only a few minutes gentle walk from the centre of Orgiva. The area offers a wide variety of holiday activities from walking, painting, to just relaxing by our pool.
Orgiva is a bustling market town nestling between two mountain ranges, the Sierra Nevada to the north, and the Sierra De La Contraviesa to the south. Orgiva is the provincial capital of the Western Alpujarras, offering a wide variety of bars and restaurants, shops, cinema, and banks. For those wishing to attend religious services, Orgiva has a striking baroque Church.
The surrounding region offers, for those who do not wish to just relax, the added attraction of wonderful walks, bird watching, and an endless array of wild flowers to paint on canvas. Horse trekking, hang gliding, and off road cycling are also available for the more energetic visitors. There is a tourist office in town which is well worth a visit for guests seeking further information on activities.
Within easy reach of Orgiva are the many white washed Berber villages of Las Alpujarras, the coast, and Granada. This historic city lies to our north, offering the visitors the splendour of the Alhambra Palaces, the old Arab quarter, the Cathedral and old Jewish quarter, and many other historic sites of interest. Granada will also entertain those visitors who enjoy shopping, or just letting the world go by sitting at one of the many street cafes.
The region also offers the most southerly winter skiing in Europe. So ski in the morning, and swim in the Mediterranean in the afternoon, and finish a perfect day by dining beside the sea in one of the many beach restaurants.
I do hope that you enjoy our site, and decide to holiday with us.
