Unless you enjoy long-range road trips or got plenty of time or are a nearby location
resident, driving all the way to Vera Playa right from your home is unlikely your
choice. You will save time and effort if you take a flight. (If
you think about environmental impact of flying, then here is something interesting
to read

By any option of where you land, the resort isn't a walking distance from the airport,
while adding to holiday quality in the resort but making you to rely on a ground transportation
to cover the remaining part of your travel. You have a choice of doing it by bus, by hiring an airport
shuttle/taxi or by renting a car.
Airports nearest to the resort are in Almeria (~86 km) and Murcia (~130 km). But you may also
think of Malaga (~300 km) and Alicante (~280 km). There's high speed Mediterranean highway
running along the coast a little bit inland. If you drive, you may think of changing it to another
road very close to the sea, to enjoy a better view.
If you think of going by bus, take a notice that there's no bus to
go directly to Vera Playa from any airport. You have to find two connected routes.
A number of bus companies can bring you from airport to Vera, for example www.flybus.es,
www.alsa.es. You have to find one operating in the airport you arrive.
Once you are in Vera you get by hourly bus to Vera Playa, and you stop near Consum
supermarket, which is 500 meters away from the main entrance of the Vera Natura
apartment complex. Look for information about the hourly bus on website www.autocaresbaraza.com.
