Where to stay in El Ejido
Staying in El Ejido Town Centre puts you in a good position for reaching Balerma, just a short drive down to the coast. For something closer to the market itself, look for accommodation in Balerma, the small seaside village where the street market takes place.
If you prefer a bit more comfort and choice, Roquetas de Mar is a nearby resort town with a wider selection of hotels and easy access to this stretch of the Almería coast.
