Hostal de
la Gavina is the grandest address in the northeast corridor of Spain,
since it opened in the early 1980s, has attracted the rich and glamorous,
including King Juan Carlos, Elizabeth Taylor and a host of celebrities
from northern Europe. It's on a peninsula jutting seaward from the
centre of S'Agaro, placed on a small hill bathed by the Mediterranean
and surrounded by beautiful gardens. Within a thick-walled Iberian villa
built as the home of the Ansesa family (the owners of the hotel) in
1932. The Hostal de la Gavina overlooks two of the most beautiful
beaches of the Costa Brava. The building itself is a masterpiece of
architecture, which combines the modern line of great hotels with
the warm atmosphere of the classical, traditional Catalan style.
Thousands of green and blue tones visible at a single instant overwhelm
the traveller signalling that indeed he is before a unique vision which
will remain a longstanding memory. The extraordinary "Camino de Ronda"
(a coastline footpath) unites the beautiful beaches of Sant Pol and Cala
Sa Conca and enlivens the five senses in a special way. A variety of
atmospheres in which to enjoy prestigious gastronomy. Restaurants "Garbi",
"Las Conchas" y "Candlelight".
"At your service" This is, quite possibly, the phrase which best defines
the feeling a guest of Hostal de la Gavina perceives. And that is
because at Hostal de la Gavina nothing is left to chance. Constant
personalized and discreet attention is what has consolidated a history
so rich, exceptional and ever present. Most of the accommodations are in
the resort's main building, which has been enlarged and modified. The
spacious rooms are the most sumptuous in the area, with marble and
wooden floors, hand-carved ebony and parquetry inlaid furniture, Murano
crystal lamps, wool rugs from India, and walls covered with gold and
silk adorn the 56 rooms and 16 luxury suites of Hostal de La Gavina.
Truly, every detail, every corner of the hotel is an encounter with
beauty and good taste. |
