Review of Costa Brava Hotel Tossa de Mar, Costa Brava

A Class Act On The Costa Brava

Advantages: Beautiful Villa, Scenic Location
Disadvantages: A little too isolated?

, the town of Llafranc has a similarly beautiful beach and some very good restaurants. The coast along this small stretch of the Costa Brava is exceptionally beautiful. The seas are clear and blue, and the coastline is mountainous and densely wooded. There are so many delightful coves and beaches nearby that the casual visitor need never even visit the same one twice. Simply steer clear of the tourist stretches and it would be virtually impossible to go wrong. FINALLY: Villa holidays are unbeatable, in my opinion, especially if travelling with children.

You have the freedom to come and go as you like, to enjoy a private pool at your leisure, and to cook or not to cook as the mood might take you. My family and I have rented a villa each European ...

Review of Villa El Mirador Costa Brava

L'Estartit, Costa Brava

Advantages: Wonderful beach, small town which hasn't been overdeveloped and still retains it's fishing village charm
Disadvantages: Only one road into resort which gets extremely busy during high season, town centre can be noisy late at night in high season

L'Estartit started out as a small fishing village, located on the Costa Brava in the Gerona region of Catalunya. Today it is a great resort for the tourist, offering a wide range of accomodation, bars, restaurants and a wonderful beach, without ruining the atmosphere of a small seaside town. The town is located at the foot of a small mountain, known as the Rocamaura, and this gives the town a great deal of natural beauty from wherever in town you happen to be. The side of the mountain is covered in trees, with a rock peak: and there are villas located on it. You can walk up and have a stroll around the inhabited part of the mountain either by a huge flight of steps, or via a couple of roads just off the Santa Ana street, or by the road near Castell Montgri campsite. It's a good walk for a morning stroll if you're feeling energetic ...
