Hotel El Puerto

Situated in one of the loveliest ports of the Cantabrian coast - Mundaka - this two-storey hotel started off life as a fisherman's house. It has since been converted into a small and unpretentious hotel that offers unparalleled views over the sea and mouth of the river. We certainly recommend booking a room with a view of the port, it is well worth it.
Those that manage to take their eyes off the vista will notice that Mundaka plays host to many surfers, for this is surfing region par excellence that rightly attracts practitioners of the sport from all over the world. Perhaps because of this Mundaka has a laid back feel to it and this is reflected in the hotel itself. The interior is simple so don’t expect luxury or refinement.
El Puerto is certainly a good base from which to explore the region and its many delights. The magnificent Guggenheim museum in Bilbao, for example, is only half an hour drive away. Wonderful countryside and coastlines are within easy reach too.
Before trekking off, however, don’t forget to try breakfast, weather permitting, on the terrace and enjoy the view.
