Veganfriendly hotels in Spain.

Vegan options are increasingly in demand everywhere and hotels are no different, so we bring you our favourite vegan places where you can also take your non-human family.

What do we expect from veganfriendly hotels?

Being in a place where our principles are respected, feeling at ease and receiving good treatment and attention is the ultimate definition of relaxation and comfort.

To be able to eat quality products either in a buffet or with a vegan menu that satisfies our palate without worrying about whether it contains products derived from animal exploitation is a great pleasure, but also if we can travel with our life partners and enjoy those days of disconnection with them, what more can you ask for?

Here are three places you can't miss if you like to travel, disconnect and do it in places aligned with your principles.

Hotel Casa Albets, Lleida.

We start with one of our favourite places, located in Lladurs, Lleida. At Casa Albets they are vegan and environmentally friendly, and dogs are allowed, even more than one dog per room!

Casa Albets is a farmhouse that has been refurbished and converted into a marvellous 4-star, top quality lodge, with top quality cuisine, and some of its nine rooms have a hydro-massage bathtub.

O viso Ecovillage, Lugo.

O viso is a completely vegan and petfriendly hotel, located 15 minutes from the beach. All its products, both food and services, are free of animal products. They also follow ecological practices to minimise the impact on the environment.

O viso has ten flats, five rooms, common areas such as the social lounges, a swimming pool area and many activities to enjoy. In addition, at O viso, your companions go free, although only one dog per flat or bedroom, they will be able to enjoy green areas and open spaces where they can move freely.

Caserio da Castiñeira, Ourense.

Caserio da Castiñeira" is a unique place in the Serra do Burgo, 10 minutes from the Sil canyons and very close to the ski slopes of Cabeza de Manzaneda. Everything they offer in their kitchen is vegan and delicious, adapting to possible allergies and food intolerances of the guests.

It has 4 flats and a double room. The house also has a large common area with library, games area, wifi and fireplace. In the flats you can stay with your four-legged companions.

In addition to recommending you to visit these places, we also leave you a gift idea for someone you love very much, you can give a voucher to spend a few days in any of these three wonderful places.

Other types of vegan-friendly tourism with your dogs:

Travelling with our dogs and finding decent 100% plant-based food can be complicated, so here are some other ideas:

Travelling in a camper or caravan: whether bought or rented, you can go wherever you want and with the built-in kitchen or a small camping kitchen you can prepare your favourite menus, and in them you can travel with your companions, choosing the safest and most pleasant places for them. And your dog, what do you prefer, beach or mountain? With a camper or caravan and a good time on google you are sure to find wonderful and quiet places to visit.

Rent a flat, flat, bungalow or a camping pitch in a campsite that allows animals. Here I will tell you to value the character of your dog and your desire to be with more people, just as with a camper or caravan you can avoid crowds or sharing spaces with more people, here it is important to value where you are going to go and what you expect from that place, because a flat near a beach that does not allow animals can be a real hell for non-human companions, but you will have more services and other types of leisure and tourism than in a vehicle.

Basic tips for travelling with a dog:

Finally, some basic tips for travelling with your partner:

Tell your vet where you are going in case he/she needs any preventive treatment, vaccination or certificate.

Always take your pet's up-to-date veterinary record and all the necessary paperwork with you (liability insurance, licence if it is a PPP, veterinary report if it is sick, etc.).

Locate an emergency vet at your destination, look for reviews on google so you don't have to go running to the first one you find, it's always better to choose calmly.

If your companion is ill or needs a check-up during the trip, ideally your vet should get in touch with the clinic at your destination so that the history and treatments are as well transmitted as possible.

If your companion is not a fan of travelling and you have the opportunity to have a friend, family member or professional carer look after him in his safe place, as can happen with most cats, don't hesitate and save him the trouble.

If you are going on holiday this Easter, we hope you enjoy yourselves and get plenty of rest.
