This delightful, family-operated hotel opened its doors in July 2000 and has consistently enjoyed success each season. The current owners are selling due to retirement. The property boasts a stunning location on the tidal estuary, La Ría de Villaviciosa, designated as a Nature Reserve, making it a haven for bird watchers and nature enthusiasts. Situated at the entrance of a highly sought-after residential area with approximately 40 large private detached homes, the hotel occupies a sizable, flat plot of 5,000 m² with parking for around 16 vehicles.
Of this, 1,250 m² can be set aside or segregated to build a detached villa or a group of self-contained apartments, diversifying the accommodation options. The hotel currently offers 11 double bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities and central heating. The practical layout, spanning two levels, includes 4 double bedrooms on the ground floor, 6 on the top floor, and 1spacious suite, each featuring a balcony or terrace.
Common areas include the reception area and lounge with a log burner/fireplace, leading into the conservatory or glassed dining area. The morning sun floods the breakfast room, strategically designed on the east side, with a capacity for approximately 40 people and direct access to the pristine lawn.
The hotel is equipped with a spacious industrial kitchen, guest WC, laundry facilities, a central heating service room, and a sizable basement that serves as a large multifunction room, once a bar. This area leads internally up to the kitchen, with further guest WC, a storage room, and even a cider press area where the owners have traditionally made their own cider.
Additionally, there are two separate buildings: a self-contained bungalow, ideal for owner’s accommodation with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a kitchen, all well-lit and airy. In front of the bungalow, there’s a terrace and a vegetable garden. The granary building (Hórreo/Panera) has been transformed into an open-plan loft-style dwelling. Two access gates from the main lane offer both public and private parking.
Given its fantastic coastal location in central Asturias and its house-restaurant ambiance, this property is indeed an ideal year-round business that can adapt to various concepts, catering to the increasing demand from international clientele visiting this area. It is especially attractive during the low and mid-seasons as an alternative to city hotels and is also ideal for group venues and retreats.
**Location:**
Villaviciosa is easily accessible by a short drive on well-maintained roads, approximately 10 km away, and the charming historical fishing port of Tazones is about 8 km distant. Across from the hotel, there’s a private yacht club featuring a restaurant, swimming pool, and tennis club. The small port of El Puntal, offering kayak rentals, is within walking distance, along with two further restaurants and two beaches that enjoy amazing sunsets.
**Communications/Connections:**
There is an ongoing project for a cycle path connecting the village of Villaviciosa to El Puntal. Until such time, both the village and the port of Tazones are reachable by foot directly from the hotel via the hills, along a picturesque, designated route (Ruta de Carlos V – Villaviciosa-Tazones). The public bus service from Villaviciosa has a stop at the bottom of the lane, approximately 200 meters from the hotel, and there are excellent taxi services in the area. The town, with all amenities, is a 10-minute drive away, Gijon is just over 25 minutes away, Oviedo is 45 minutes away, and Oviedo Airport is a pleasant 50-minute drive.
