On the beachfront at Dunamar, 400 m from Parquemar
Sea, sand and dunes
Playa de la Mata runs for more than two kilometres of open golden sand, backed by protected dunes and, behind them, the natural park of the salt lagoons. That park is the reason this stretch never picked up the wall of hotels that shaped the coast either side of it. Its southern section, La Mata-Sur, flies a Blue Flag renewed for 2026.

Stay on this beach, not near it
Photographs of a beach are easy. Waking up to one is the part that has to be booked. Both of our apartments are in La Mata, one of them with the sand directly in front of it, and booking here goes straight to us with no platform commission added on top.
