How to get there:
From Malaga Airport take the N340 motor way towards Motril (be extra careful to take the correct turnoff as the sign for Motril is confusing), stay on the motor way all the way to La Herradura.
From Granada, follow signs to Motril and Almuñecar.
Go into the town until you approach the beach front, turn right at the end and follow the beach all the way to the end. Take the last turning on the right and go past the camp site which will be in front of you, follow the road up a steep hill until you get to the top and you will see the Carmenes Del Mar complex to your left.
