This place looks like the place.

I am looking for a bed and breakfast or an inexpensive hotel on the
beach (not too touristy), on the South South East part of spain. any
help would be appreciated. i am going to be in seville on july 8 & 9,
and then 10 and 11 somewhere on the beach. Based on google, it would
take approx. 6 1/2 hours from seville to valencia by car, so i am
looking a little closer if possible.

thanks adi

Hi,

On the Costa de la Luz, we've stayed in Zahara de los Atunes, Sanlucar
de Barrameda, driven through Barbate and Conil de la Frontera, passed a
rainy February afternoon in Los Caños de Meca.  We have also stayed with
family in El Puerto de Santa Maria, and visited Cadiz from there.  Also
very worth a visit are Jerez de la Frontera (actors acting out history
in the Alcazar, a traditional Andalusian city that is not overwhelming,
not to mention sherry), and Vejer de la Frontera (a little more
traditional, an amazing subterranean restaurant on the west? side of the
city).

I didn't see anything in Los Caños de Meca or Conil de la Frontera that
would make me want to go back, except maybe Cabo Trafalgar, if you are
interested in history.  Barbate was a larger town; we used it for the
clinic for a grandchild.  The forest  between Los Caños de Meca and
Barbate was interesting, and good place for a hike and picnic away from
crowds.  We looked for, and did not find, a monument to the Peninsular
War in La Barrosa near Chiclana.  We also attempted to visit, but missed
the visiting day, of the Spanish Naval Observatory in San Fernando, site
of the Spanish Armada's Prime Meridian (for comparison to the Jesuit's
Prime Meridian thru Salamanca, and that other Prime Meridian somewhere
further north).

To skip "touristy," you might want to try Zahara.  We stayed there in
the hotel, and there are lots of opportunities to do very little. But it
was a cute, friendly little town.  There is an urbanization called
Atlanterra south of Zahara. It was closed when we were there off-season,
but it's gotta be touristy in season.

For more to do, I would return to Sanlucar. We did stay in a major
hotel.  We took the boat up to river into the Donaña, had several
excellent meals in the restaurants on the river. Ask the waiter for a
recommendation.  An excellent well-interpreted historical museum on the
waterfront.

For even more to do, there is Cadiz, a major city but not overwhelming.  
Since we stayed in El Puerto, we found the ferry service to Cadiz very
handy.

Probably doesn't answer your question directly, but maybe something here
will help.

Hi Adi
The beach area closest to Seville is the Costa da la Luz - on Spain's Atlantic coast. This would involve a lot less travel than going to the Mediterranean coast.
The pictures of it show beautiful sandy beaches but I've never been there myself and so can make any hotel recommendations. I have been to Portugal's Algarve which is just a bit further west and it's perfect for a beach holiday in many ways and although its main resorts are definitely "touristy" they are perhaps not as tourist-dominated (and ex-pat dominated) as those on the Costa del Sol.
Remember that the Spanish word for "Hotel" is "Hostal" and the type of accommodation you are looking for would also be found in a "Pension" - I did a search using Pension Costa de la Luz and came up with a lost of hits on TravelRepublic.co.uk a company I used when making bookings in the Canary Islands some years ago.
