La Casa del Desierto

La Casa del Desierto, located at the heart of the Gorafe desert in the Granada Geopark, is a unique building that blends in perfectly with this special natural environment.

The house is fully glazed and has a self-sufficient design capable of withstanding the huge changes in temperature, which can vary by as much as 30º in a single day, thanks to its thermal glass that keeps the cold and the heat out, offering a comfortable place from which to enjoy the impressive views of the desert and stars.

This is undoubtedly a place where you can switch off in a fully-equipped house in the middle of the desert.

Company’s commitment to conservation of biodiversity and local development

At Casa del Desierto we promote and raise awareness of the importance of caring for the environment, taking into account our environmental impact and working to minimise it as much as possible:

We’re powered by solar energy and we filter rainwater to be used as drinking water.

Bathwater is drained into a biologically-active septic tank where it is transformed into liquid fertiliser and returned to the land.
We collaborate with local companies that monitor their environmental impact and offer experiences to get to know and enjoy the natural beauty of our area.
We are committed to buying food from local suppliers and producers.
