Villas in Costa Brava - the ultimate sun, sea and sand destination
Costa Brava was given its name by Ferran Agulló, a journalist from Girona, when referring to the ruggedness of this stretch of Mediterranean coastline. The word ‘costa’ is the Spanish and Catalan word for coast, while ‘brava’ means wild or rugged. Costa Brava extends from the river Tordera, near Blanes, to Banyuls in France. Spain’s rich heritage and history spreads even to this popular tourist destination as is evidenced by the walled medieval capital, Gerona.
The Costa Brava is home to a host of stunning golden beaches and secluded bays surrounded by rugged cliffs. Throughout the summer, this Spanish coastal gem is blessed with glorious heat and sunshine, perfect for beach holidays. The average temperature for this region is about 24 degrees Celsius, although during the height of summer, it can climb as high as 30 degrees. Accommodation can be found in the form of Costa Brava villas and Costa Brava holiday apartments set not far away from golden sandy beaches in the bustling Lloret De Mar. This modern resort is only 35 miles north of Barcelona and is teeming with bars and clubs that stay open until the small hours of the morning. Catering for families as well as couples, singles and groups of partygoers and friends, Lloret De Mar is an extremely appealing and popular holiday spot in the region. Retaining some of its fishing village roots, Tossa De Mar can be found a few miles farther north. It is perfect for those seeking a more relaxed and laid back holiday experience, as its party and entertainment scene is compartively toned down, especially at night. Travellers to Tossa De Mar come primarily for the beach and sun and typically stay in a wonderful Costa Brava villa or seaside apartment.

For an even more quiet and tranquil getaway you would do well to avoid the more popular resorts and travel farther north. Here you can enjoy rocky coves and will encounter a deeper sense of the Catalan tradition. In smaller towns and developments such as Casa de Campo you could find a more quaint and authentic Costa Brava villa or apartment to spend your holidays in. From town hubs such as Begur or Palafrugell, it is easy to explore the surrounding coastline, coves, beaches and fishing villages by simply following the winding hilltop roads. If you are looking for popular tourist resorts featuring water sports, sunbathing and swimming galore for your family and friends, the southern resorts are where you want to be. If, on the other hand, a more authentic relaxed exploration of Costa Brava’s rugged coastline is what you’re after, the north is the place to look into.
