I am moving to Granada compound in a week. I have heard mixed feedback regarding whether is is being run as a 'Western' compound or not. I also heard that it is changing management right now. More to the point....is it 'Abaya Free'? My wife was looking forward to have the compound be an Oasis from the restrictions she will be dealing with outside of the compound. If others will be wearing their Abaya to the pool then it will make for an uncomfortable encounter.
Any feedback?

@RedDesert if you did move to Granada, please share you experience as to the current state of the compound.

Hello Xlunce,
This thread is outdated and RedDesert has not been on the forum since 2 years already, it will be better to wait for a feedback on your own thread : https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=560163
All the best
