Vejer de la Frontera is a beautiful little white village in Andalusia, a region in Southern Spain. Also, Vejer de la Frontera is located close to Jerez de la Frontera, the famous sherry village. Several white villages such as Setinil de la Frontera or Arcos de la Frontera, can be found in the beautiful Andalusia region. However, I would pick Vejer over Arcos and only visit Setinil on a stop-over. Now you know Vejer is one of the best white villages to visit, let’s get started with this Vejer de la Frontera Travel Guide.
Wondering how long to stay in Vejer de la Frontera? We decided to spend one night in Vejer, which I deem sufficient. Even though the village is stunning and there are plenty of restaurants and bars, there are limited sights.
If you want to get to Vejer de la Frontera, I suggest renting a car like we did during our trip to Andalusia. However, if you want to visit Vejer de la Frontera by public transport, you can take the bus from Cadiz. The closest airport is Malaga Airport or you can fly into Seville Airport.

Vejer de la Frontera isn’t famous for a particular sight. The main reason we visited the place was to experience a fully white city that was supposed to be stunning. Start with strolling around and taking it all in.
Vejer is full of little alleys with greens and plants – like the one you see below. Go search for them, as they are too cute to miss out on.
In my opinion, the greatest and most famous view in Vejer is the look-through. If you want to visit, you have to look for the entrance of a restaurant called Juderia. Google Maps your way to this restaurant if you don’t pass the view during your stroll. You won’t regret it.
Vejer de la Frontera is also full of pretty doors and Insta-worthy places (search for Vejer on Instagram and I guarantee you’ll find the blue door below a lot).
The central square in Vejer de la Frontera is called Plaza de España. The colourful fountain on the square is the main attraction of the square.
Strolling through the streets and seeing the white houses around you probably blows you away already. However, searching for a view where you can overlook all the white houses might even be better. The views you see here are the outlook from the parking lot where we parked our car and from the outlook behind the castle.
As we only stayed for one night, there wasn’t too much time to try many bars and restaurants to at to this Vejer de la Frontera Travel Guide. However, we still managed to find three different places worth a recommendation. I also did some more online research and will give a short overview of other potential restaurants and places worth visiting.
With the entrance located on the main square, you can’t miss this place and you shouldn’t miss this place because the food is great! This place is the most famous restaurant in Vejer and is known across Andalusia for a reason. The ambience of the restaurant is great inside and outside (hello terrace!). They serve Arabic food, so if you are into couscous, tagines, hummus and mezze, this is the place for you. Curious? Check out the menu here.
Also located on Plaza de Espana, you’ll find a place called La Casa Del Vino where you can enjoy sherries from the region. Enjoy some cheese, meat, fish and a fresh glass of sherry or wine.
There is only one suitable table outside and some places for standing – this is a tiny bar hidden in the streets of Vejer. Nothing too special, but nice wine and cheese and we loved sitting on the corner of the streets. Would you like to have something to eat afterwards? Check out Trafalgar Tapas – apparently one of the best tapas places in town.
Unfortunately, we couldn’t visit more bars and restaurants during our time in Vejer de la Frontera. Nevertheless, after research, there are a couple of additional places I can recommend such as Trafalgar Tapas, La Piccolina, El Claustro and Bar Sumia.
For one night, we stayed at a place called La Botica de Vejer and the view you see on the right was the view from the place. Pretty good right? They also have a great rooftop terrace with sun loungers. Prices start from €70 a night, dependent on the season.
An incredible beautiful hotel if you can spend a little more in Vejer de la Frontera. The interior of both the hotel and rooms are beyond stunning and some rooms do have a balcony. Rooms start at €115 a night.
This beautiful hotel, Hotel Boutique V, is located in the heart of Vejer de la Frontera and offers a unique experience in a beautiful home. There is a great rooftop terrace available, a cute inner courtyard and beautiful rooms. Prices for a night start at €140.
