Alcaidesa, as most people call it,can be seen as either a small village or a large community, however you prefer to view it. According to Wikipedia, it is an &#8216;urbanizaci\u00f3n,&#8217; which translates to community. However, having a central plaza with a few restaurants, bars, and a supermarket gives it the feel of a small village.<\/p><p>Many people own holiday homes here, and a few like me are permanent residents. This mix creates a very relaxed atmosphere for me as a constant inhabitant. In summer, it becomes a bit more vibrant, and the rest of the year it is fairly quiet, which is exactly how I like it.<\/p><p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">You might also like<\/span>:<\/p><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/en\/best-esim-spain\/\">Best eSIM Spain | Provider &amp; Data Plan Comparison 2025<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/en\/saily-esim-review\/\">Saily eSIM Review: Data Plans, App &amp; Customer Service<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c1a94a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2c1a94a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-1024x681.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-39103\" alt=\"La Alcaidesa\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/DSC08278-2048x1363.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34007bd elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"34007bd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-1024x576.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-39088\" alt=\"Alcaidesa\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/travelastronaut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20181104_113801-EFFECTS-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2fcfba3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2fcfba3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-258ba59\" data-id=\"258ba59\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6245d79 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6245d79\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>La Alcaidesa is located on the Costa del Sol, 10 kilometers north of La L\u00ednea de la Concepci\u00f3n, the city bordering Gibraltar.

Arena Bar<\/strong><\/p><p>Heading north towards the lighthouse, you&#8217;ll find &#8216;Sal Verde,&#8217; a relatively recent addition to the beach&#8217;s dining and drinking facilities, created by the Golf Club Sal Verde. It features a modern style with various seating options, from bean bags to chairs. The food and drinks are rather on they pricier side.<\/p><p>At the Sal Verde Arena Bar, you find space on a 150-square-meter terrace set along the Mediterranean coastline. The culinary offerings here are led by Manuel Berganza, a distinguished chef renowned for being the youngest Spanish chef to earn a Michelin Star abroad. Additionally, the venue provides sun loungers and umbrellas for rent along the shore, enhancing the beachside experience.<\/p><p><strong>Dblanco<\/strong><\/p><p>An institution in Alcaidesa for 20 years, Dblanco has unfortunately lost much of the charm it once had due to a recent change of ownership. The quirky chiringuito, known for its art installations, now resembles just another beach bar. Although it is not directly located on the sand, technically making it not a true chiringuito, this detail is minor to most. On the positive side, unlike the other two chiringuitos, it remains open all year round. It&#8217;s a great spot to enjoy a decent, affordable breakfast with a view or to catch one of the summer concerts.<\/p><p><strong>One Eden<\/strong><\/p><p>One Eden is a place I completely avoid, as it is soulless, created by a money-greedy individual who is slowly destroying the charm of Alcaidesa with his ugly modern buildings and silly franchises in the square. I&#8217;d rather spend my money on other businesses.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2e33446 elementor-widget

This place has been dear to my heart since it opened a few years ago. Located in the upper square of Alcaidesa (AQA) and resembling a kiosk, it&#8217;s a family-owned business where you can find the cheapest beer and quality eats like burgers and sandwiches. The owners, a lovely Polish\/Bulgarian couple, take great care of their guests. After a day at the beach, this is where you&#8217;ll find me.<\/p><p><strong>Solymar Minimarket<\/strong><\/p><p>Another institution in Alcaidesa, this small shop located on the lower square not only functions as a store but also as a spot where one can enjoy cheap drinks. Additionally, you can indulge in a typical Spanish breakfast consisting of a piece of baguette with olive oil and tomato paste along with a nice coffee, all at a very good price. A positive note: it is open all day on Sundays in case you need to pick up any items you forgot on your last shopping trip. Just so you know, there is no table service.<\/p><p><strong>BioPizza <\/strong><\/p><p>Great pizza, unfortunately with inconsistent opening hours. Sometimes they host small events there.<\/p><p><strong>Nexo<\/strong><\/p><p>The successor to the long-time institution the&#8217;Ivy Wine Bar&#8217; has unfortunately lost much of its charm. Compared to the previous establishment, it no longer opens until late afternoon, so you can&#8217;t enjoy a drink or lunch there. It functions more as a restaurant than a bar now. It doesn\u2019t really tempt me at the moment, but I&#8217;ve heard the food is quite good.<\/p><p><strong>Entre Palmeras Restaurant &amp; Rooftop Bar<\/strong><\/p><p>Nice rooftop bar with great cocktails and good service. They offer regular specials both in the restaurant and at the rooftop bar. The food is rather upscale and, therefore, a bit pricier.<\/p><p><strong>Harry`s Bar<\/strong><\/p><p>Nice little bar on the first floor of the building connected to the square. It has a small food menu, acceptable drinks, and nice music. The bar offers a quiz night every second Thursday and karaoke on Saturdays. If there&#8217;s football on, you can watch it here.<\/p><p><strong>Bengal Spice<\/strong><\/p><p>A Bangladeshi establishment serving Indian food. Dine in or get a takeaway after enjoying some drinks on the &#8216;plaza&#8217;.<\/p><p><strong>PizzaExpress <\/strong><\/p><p>Mediocre pizza from an English franchise chain. I&#8217;d rather spend my money on other businesses.<\/p><p><strong>Caf\u00e9 Fresco<\/strong><\/p><p>The same applies to Caf\u00e9 Fresco, which offers overpriced, mediocre food from another franchise.<\/p><p>Additionally, there is a small Ruiz Galan supermarket where you can get your daily groceries and food supplies. The employees are very helpful and friendly.<\/p><p><strong>La Finca Thai Fusion<\/strong><\/p><p>This restaurant, which offers Thai fusion food, is situated near the entrance of Alcaidesa next to the campsite.
