Booking
Which do I book first, flights
or accommodation?
Once you have sourced your flights,
ask us to Confirm
Availability - Make Reservation for your accommodation.
We will confirm availability and hold this for you for
up to 7 days (pending a formal booking). This allows
you to book flights or make other transport arrangements.
Why book with us?
Our holidays are aimed at those who prefer the flexibility
of independent travel to package holidays. Our clients
tell us that they book with us because of the personal
service, which they receive. We make all arrangements
easy and can help you find the best deals on flights,
car hire and insurance, which you are free to book from
any provider. Best of all though, our accommodation
is set in a naturist environment.

on any day of the week and for any duration. Note: Our

What time can I arrive?

and 21.00.
What time must I leave?
Check out time is 10am for all accommodation unless
prior arrangement is made. To stay beyond that time
please book an extra nights rental.

Can we walk to the beach without
clothes on?
Only if you are brave! As far as we know there is
no anti-nudity laws in Spain but Magnolias Natura is
sited amongst other non-naturist bungalow complexes
which share the same access road to the beach.
How far is it to the beach?
2 km to the start of the Maspalomas dunes. There is
a courtesy bus to Faro for Maspalomas nudist beach.
Do we need a car in Gran Canaria?
There are an abundance of taxis in the area day
and night. A car is only really necessary to explore
the island.
Do I need to speak Spanish?
The first language of Magnolias Natura is English.
English is widely spoken in the immediate area too.
Magnolias Natura is not the place to go to "brush
up" on your Spanish.
Is nudity compulsory?
The pool and pool area are reserved for naturist
use only at Magnolias Natura.
Vera Playa Resort
What restaurants are there at
Vera Playa?
Directly on the beachfront is the main bar and restaurant,
which is open all day, every day, throughout the year
and is also fully naturist. There are also several other
bar/restaurants in the immediate area (non-naturist)
but for a greater variety of restaurants we recommend
that clients visit the nearby towns of Garrucha and
Mojacar Playa which are 5km and 9km away.
What are the temperatures like?
Please check our temperature
chart for the Vera Playa area.
Where is the nearest supermarket?
There is a large supermarket a few minuites walk
away from the naturist zone. There are many larger supermarkets
at Garrucha, Mojacar Playa and at the town of Vera a
short drive away.
Can we walk to the beach without
clothes on?
All our Vera Playa apartments are located within
the official naturist zone of Vera Playa, therefore,
you do not need clothes in and around the apartments
or for walking to the beach.
How far is it to the beach?
All our Vera Playa complexes are less than a 5-minute
walk from the shore.
Do we need a car?
To fully appreciate a holiday at Vera Playa your
own transport is essential. Use of a hire car allows
visitors a far greater freedom and flexibility and it
also eliminates the cost of the airport transfer.
Do I need to speak Spanish?
All our clients have a local personal contact (English
speaking) for their holiday rental period. They will
be on call to ensure that should any problem arise,
during their stay, that they may offer assistance.
Is nudity compulsory?
There are no clothing requirements at Vera Playa
and visitors may wear as much or as little as they choose.
Virtually all beach users do so naturist and most visitors
to Vera Playa remain unclothed most of the time. All
apartment pools are reserved for naturist use only.
Whilst in Spain
Will my mobile phone work whilst
in Spain?
Most mobile phones will work in Spain but you may
need to ask your network service provider to set up
"international roaming" before you travel. Contact your
service provider for details.
Is Spanish tap water safe to
drink?
We recommend all clients purchase bottled water to drink,
which is very cheap and available in all supermarkets.
Spanish tap water may be safe to drink, but is usually
heavily laden with chemicals and can cause upset stomachs.
What time are shops open in Spain
As a general guide, smaller shops open from around 10am
to 1pm and then from around 5pm to 9pm. Some of the
larger supermarkets will stay open throughout the day
but most will close on Sundays and national holidays.
