Costa Brava Holidays

Free Wi-Fi is available in all areas of the hotels for your use. Entertainment, including live music is provided in the bar most evenings, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to your holiday.

When notified in advance, Travel Department can inform our Costa Brava hotels of your dietary requests, such as gluten-free, vegetarian or vegan foods. Please note that choices may be limited compared to the offering found in hotels at home.

For restaurants and hotel dining rooms there’s no need to dress up, but we would recommend to avoid wearing “beach wear” attire, such as swimsuits and flip flops.  When visiting churches and holy places, cover up bare flesh; shoulders, chest, legs. Sturdy shoes are recommended during excursions that involve walking.

Generally, the areas around the hotels on the Costa Brava is well suited for those with walking difficulties, with wide, open, flat promenades and most facilities such as the beach being located a short walk away from the hotel. However, the excursions involve periods of walking, and Girona, Montserrat and Barcelona do have some cobbled streets and hilly areas. Therefore, a reasonable degree of health and mobility is required. For all our tours we have an activity level guide to help you decide which holiday suits you best. For specific advice regarding our Costa Brava holidays and to discuss any special needs, please contact us directly and we will be happy to assist.

A wide range of international and Spanish style food is available on the Costa Brava, but do make sure you try some of the food local to the Catalonia region. Basics include pa amb tomàquet, which is simply bread or toast smeared with tomato, salted and drizzled with olive oil. Fish is also eaten widely in this seaside region. For dessert you can have a regional favourite, crema Catalana ; a Spanish custard very similar to a creme brulee.   Among many superb wines produced in Catalonia is the sparkling and refreshing Cava, which you can try during one of your included excursions on this holiday.

The Costa Brava is known for its sunny coastline and beautiful climate that brings heat and the sun to the region all year-round. In spring and autumn, days are generally warm and sunny with temperatures of around 20 degrees with cool breezes, making it an ideal time for sightseeing as well as relaxing without the high heat of peak summer.

The Costa Brava is an ideal holiday destination if you are looking to combine a relaxing stay on the beach with experiencing the culture and sights of Catalonia. From the cosmopolitan city of Barcelona and smaller historical towns like Girona and Figures, the Costa Brava has it all.
