Just back from Jerez and this was the only guide book I found that had anything in detail on that area. The recommendations were useful and background info very helpful. We used it most days and I'd happily recommend it to anyone new to the area.
We also went to Cadiz for the day and followed the rec for somewhere to eat - the Tapas Bar was spot on ... (There was a group of Spanish students poring over this book at the next table!)
We had not realised what a big area Andalucia is and by reading this I now have a better idea of new places to go. However, I think there is still room in the market for a much bigger and more detailed book of this magical part of Spain.

Having relied on LP for all my trips over the past ten years or so, I am highly disappointed in this guide. It might not be the content but the layout has been changed so much, it is not user-friendly if you have been using LP guides for a longer period of time. The "Getting Started" section is terrible with one page with illustrations dedicated to the arts, architecture etc, and the transport section has very limited information. Due to past reviews, I also bought the 2007 edition which has a better map, a railroad map and the layout LP has established itself with. Shame it's a waste of money...

I always buy a Lonely Planet's guide for every holiday.
As every Lonely Planet's reader know it helps you for accommodations, locations, restaurants, entertainment, etc...
It provides you with good descriptions and precise locations and until now it never let me down.
Unfortunately this doesn't apply for this Andalucia's guide!
First of all the copy that I received was a 2007 one! So some places weren't there any more...
Secondly the hotel's descriptions let me down more than once. Ending in places described as 'folsky' just plain, poor and decadent.
The maps provided were sometime in a too large scale leaving you wandering in the cities without any idea of where you were because there were no street names but just the main ones.
Also more then once a restaurant or hotel's address was missing!
Good description, nice place... 'mmmh this sounds good, let's go there!'
'Oh, there's no address!!'
How can you find a place when they just tell you 3km out of Tarifa!? What about an address?
