Gibraltar

Gibraltar is a story of extremes meeting. Its vast limestone Rock rises proudly straight out of the water like an ancient sentinel, at the exact point where the calm Mediterranean opens onto the stormy Atlantic — the gatekeeper of two worlds. This is the mesmerising moment when you stand on the summit of the towering crag, look to the horizon, and see with your own eyes two continents — Europe and Africa — almost touching across the narrow strait. And below the summit waits a beautiful cultural clash: the impossible meeting of classic British lanes, red telephone boxes and traditional pubs with warm Spanish sun, a relaxed Mediterranean pace and a warm wind blowing off the desert. And, as with everything in Gibraltar, time collides here too: a sharp transition between historic stone quarters and ancient fortresses and a futuristic, glittering marina where luxury yachts moor beneath a modern, lively skyline. At SherryStay we understand that Gibraltar is all a matter of vantage point: we have picked only the places to stay that give you the right side of these extremes — whether that is the power of the Rock, the energy of the marina, or the rare sight of two continents in a single glance.
