There are journeys that begin when you pack your suitcase.
And others, the best, when you finally slow down.
At San Juan de la Arena, Where the Nalón river embraces the Cantabrian Sea, Asturias speaks to you in a different way. Here there is no rush or noise. Only the smell of saltpetre, the green that soothes the gaze, the song of the birds, the breeze that slips through the window and that silence which doesn't weigh you down: it accompanies you.
In the heart of the Bajo Nalón, travel is not about rushing.
It is feeling again.
And that's what we propose to you in The Mimosas del Nalón: a stay to reconnect with the essential. Our motto, Feed the Senses, No, it's not a nice phrase. It's a way of understanding Asturias, rest, and hospitality.
Feed the eyes
San Juan de la Arena is pure scenery.
The estuary, the port, the houses looking out at the water, the open horizon of the Los Quebrantos Beach, the Playón de Bayas, The cliffs and viewpoints of Bajo Nalón form a postcard that changes with every light of the day.
From Las Mimosas, you can take it all in: stroll through San Esteban de Pravia, discover the Indian elegance of Somao, to get lost, to lose yourself Pravia and its history, to tour Muros de Nalón or simply watch the Nalón open out to the sea.
You don't just come to see Asturias.
You come to let Asturias look inside you.
Feed the ear
Here, the sound also calms down.
The murmur of the river.
The wind among the trees.
The seagulls in the harbour.
The waves breaking at Los Quebrantos.
The Cheese cider pouring into the glass.
At Las Mimosas, we believe that true luxury lies in hearing less noise and more life.
Fewer notifications.
More laughs.
Less in the diary.
More presence.
Because there are silences that care.
Feed the sense of smell
The Nalón Basin smells of sea and forest.
Eucalyptus, damp grass, fresh rain, freshly baked bread, Asturian cuisine and a fishing village.
San Juan de la Arena retains its essence without any frills: its fishing tradition, its port, its canning history, and its connection with elvers. Here, every scent brings you to the present and reminds you that you are exactly where you need to be.
Feed the taste
In Asturias, happiness is also served at the table.
Fish of the day, seafood from the Cantabrian Sea, local cheeses, natural cider, unadorned cuisine… In our experiences, taste is the star.
A romantic getaway with local produce.
A quiet dinner at sunset.
Breakfast without looking at the clock.
A local recommendation for discovering restaurants, cider bars, and little spots to eat the way they do in Asturias: with care and without rushing.
Eating here is tasting the place.
Toast, taste, share, and remember.
Feed the touch
Rest is also played.
In soft sheets after a day at the beach.
On a blanket as the afternoon fades.
In the warm wood of the accommodation.
On the sand beneath our feet.
In the fresh grass.
In the salt left on the skin after the sea.
Las Mimosas del Nalón is not just accommodation.
It's a refuge. Your home in Asturias. The place from which to explore Bajo Nalón and to which to return with a full heart.
Feed the instinct
There's a sixth sense that kicks in when you're where you should be.
You notice it upon arrival: you breathe differently, your body relaxes, time stops running.
An impromptu route.
A walk along the estuary.
A surfing lesson at Los Quebrantos.
A paddleboarding experience on the Nalón.
A horseback ride along the Asturian coast.
A quiet dinner with your loved ones.
Everything flows without having to force it.
Because disconnecting isn't running away from the world.
It's switching you back on.
The Nalón Basin: the Asturias that can be felt
The Under Nalón It is not visited.
It lives.
San Juan de la Arena Bring a nautical soul.
San Esteban de Pravia, port memory.
Somao, Indian beauty. A walk through its streets is quite an experience. We recommend a coffee on the terrace of El Indiano.
Pravia, history. King Silo presides over the main square
Muros de Nalón, viewpoints.
And the estuary, that thread of water that joins everything.
Every experience here makes sense because it is born from the place. We don't seek to fill your days with plans, but to help you find your rhythm: calmer, more active, more romantic, more family-oriented, or wilder.
We all come looking for something similar:
to feel a little better.
Come and feed the senses in Asturias
Come and look at the green and the sea until your eyes rest.
To listen to the river and the Cantabrian Sea until the noise fades.
And to smell the saltpetre, the eucalyptus and the traditional cooking.
Savouring the cider, cheeses, fish, and shared time.
To touch the sand, the wood, the grass, and the calm.
To awaken that instinct that tells you: “this is the place”.
The Mimosas del Nalón It awaits you between the river and the sea, in a corner of Asturias where life turns down the volume and everything makes sense again.
Don't just come here to sleep.
Don't just come for sightseeing.
Don't just come to switch off.
Come and reconnect with yourself.
Come and live in Bajo Nalón.
Come to Las Mimosas del Nalón.
Feed the Senses. Your home in Asturias.
