Hotel Riu Ferrara

An introduction to Hotel Riu Ferrara

The Riu Ferrara is close to Torrox, where you'll find cafes, bars and restaurants. And if you like the beach close at hand, you're in luck – it's literally a stone's throw away. If you're not a fan of sand in your shoes, however, point your flip-flops pool-wards. It's got everything you'll need for a lazy afternoon in the sun – loungers, a large terrace, a fully-stocked bar. And let's not forget the fabulous sea view.

Pool aside, if you like to keep active, the gym's got your name written all over it. With a fine selection of weights and treadmills there's no excuse for letting your workout slip. Of course, you may prefer to stay inactive – you're on holiday after all - so plot a course for the sauna and massage table instead.

As the evening rolls around, things are just as lively as the daytime. Start with the swish restaurant – you'll find a busy menu packed with fresh fish, meat and paellas to tempt your tastebuds. And if you're a budding Jamie Oliver, make sure you catch the chef's skilful show cooking.

After a hearty meal, the rest of the evening depends on your mood. The lounge is just the ticket if you like things low-key – soft music and quiet drinks are top of the agenda here. On the flipside, the lively bar offers a bustling atmosphere and cocktails galore. But if you really want to let your hair down, check out the live shows. Their Abba nights are particularly popular, though themed shows may be suject to change. So dig out your spangly platforms and travel back to the seventies. Mamma Mia!
