Chiclana de la Frontera is the nearest main town to Villa Casaluz. Chiclana is situated in the Andalucian region of Cádiz, not far from the Gaditanian Bay, with views of the Atlantic ocean.
Chiclana is just under 30 minutes away from Jerez de la Frontera airport, and roughly the same distance from the airport in Seville.
The protected natural park in the bay of Cádiz, contains all manner of things, from beaches, marshes, pinewoods, salt marshes said to be of a high ecological value. The long golden beaches have led many tourists to the area; the pinewoods are a perfect compliment, with the sea and country in Eutopia.
There are also lakes and nature reserves very near, called Jeli and Montellano, which helps to breed a variety of species of birds that otherwise may be extinct.
Chiclana is essentially agricultural and traditional in stlye. Therefore, the town is almost an archetypal Andalucian style area, with the usual narrow streets, courtyards and seasonal flowers. It preserves some of the most delightfully traditional spanish customs like bullfighting, flamenco, wine production, processions, and all the other customs associated with the real spanish tradition.
The Chiclana cabbage of Tagaminas and the almond pies made by the Augustian nuns stand out, aswell as the puppet factory showing puppets dressed in traditional Andalucian clothes.
There are many important touristic attractions on offer in Chiclana: markets, monuments, handicrafts, wine cellars and commercial areas. There are stylish Chiclana restaurants to suit the most refined of tastes.
