Book a south-facing sea view room to make the most of afternoon light — it transforms the space

Why It Matters

OKU's first family-friendly property and their most ambitious yet. The only OKU with a kids club. Four tiered saltwater outdoor pools, a 2,000m² spa with its own indoor pool, six dining outlets including the omakase-capable Teyo restaurant, and views of Africa from your sun lounger. Eco credentials are real: no single-use plastics, solar panels, motion-sensor lighting.

OKU Andalusia sits directly on Playa de La Alcaidesa, where the Andalusian hills roll down to the sea and clear days put both Gibraltar and the Moroccan coast in your sightline. It's OKU's first family-forward property — 255 rooms built around the brand's wabi-sabi minimalism, with earthy tones, natural textures, and infinity pools terraced into the hillside. The 2,000m² spa, six dining concepts, and a genuinely thoughtful kids club make this the most fully-loaded property in the OKU portfolio. But note: it opens April to November only.
