Hotel Tamariu, Catalonia

Location

If you want a beach right on the doorstep, this hotel, positioned on the small seafront promenade in the village of Tamariu, is ideal. There are scenic walks along the coastal path, and the larger, sandier beaches of Calella de Palafrugell or Llafranc are a short drive away.

Style & character

A mixture of homely charm and simple, crisp style. The downstairs lounge-snug has nice personal touches, such as photos of the owners’ grandparents on the walls, and board games such as Scrabble and Ludo.
