En un portal bastante bonito y con un diseño único. El mismo te permite llegar a la universidad de la zona. La misma tiene unas vistas increíbles al mar y unos jardines preciosos. Si vas a Comillas tienes que ir a esta zona, fundamental diría yo. Totalmente recomendable 🤌🏻

la portalona es muy bonita es la entrada a lo que es la universidad pontificia que si subis en coche tenéis que pagar una tarifa como ya sale en la foto y si subis a pie podéis ir con mascotas y la entrada es libre y bueno es muy bonito . nosotros ya hace muchos años que la vimos por dentro y ahora vamos a ver la otra vez un poquito por fuera a ver cómo está .

No hace falta comprar entrada, pero es cierto que hay un horario para poder entrar.
