User reviews
"The beach at Playa de La Carihuela is absolutely fantastic! The locals are extremely friendly and the beach amenities, such as the comfortable beds and lovely umbrellas, are of great quality. Plus, it's not too pricey! The beach service provided by The Launch is also flawless. To sum it up, I highly recommend this beach!"
Andre Vanderberg
"The beach is incredibly stunning and perfect for the summer season. However, one drawback is that the majority of the sandy area is taken up by rental loungers, which cost €6 each. If you don't arrive early, it can be difficult to find an available lounger. Apart from that, everything else is fantastic."
