Orgiva is located in the southwestern part of the Alpujarra Granadina region, in the Guadalfeo river valley, at the foothills of Sierra de Lújar and Sierra Nevada mountains, about 53 km from the city of Granada.

Known for many centuries as Albacete de Órgiva, because at the time of the Nasrid reign it took the name of Albastch (which means "plain"). When it was re-conquered by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492, it became the place of residence of Boabdil, the last sultan of the Nasrid kingdom of Granada. Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, the Grand Captain, the Duke of Sessa, the Córdoba and Ayala, the Marquis of Valenzuela and the counts of Sástago also settled in their lands.

The town played a prominent role during the war against the Moors, and all the history behind it has left reminiscences that you can enjoy during your visit.

Orgiva's climate is mild, summer is not very hot, maximum temperatures do not exceed thirty-five degrees Celsius. Winter is not cold, and very rarely the minimum temperatures drop below zero degrees.

There is a large international community attracted by principles/attitudes related to spiritual life and alternative therapies.
