El Far Hotel Restaurant, Costa Brava

Pros

• You'll sleep atop a seaside cliff next to a lighthouse, and the hotel kind of feels like you're inside a lighthouse, too. 
• All rooms feature stunning sea views from windows and/or terraces.
• You'll have direct beach access and an outdoor pool for relaxing and lounging.
• The on-site restaurant serves delicious Mediterranean cuisine focusing on local food and seafood and offers al fresco dining on a terrace overlooking the sea.

Cons

• The hotel's location is quite secluded, which is excellent for quiet stays but makes the walk into town about 30 minutes.

Authenticity

El Far Hotel Restaurant embraces its Mediterranean heritage and location. Built atop a former 18th-century inn overlooking the sea at nearly 600 feet (175 m), the property was once used as shelter pilgrims. You'll enjoy a Mediterranean style with whitewashed walls, wooden accents, and natural light.

Location

El Far Hotel Restaurant is located in the picturesque coastal town of Llafranc, just steps from the beach. The hotel is ideal for travelers looking to relax and unwind in a peaceful seaside setting. Getting into the town requires a 30-minute walk or 8-minute drive, but you can also explore the surrounding areas and nearby cities by car. The charming town of Begur is just 15 minutes away, and the historic city of Girona is less than an hour's drive from the hotel.

Rooms & Bathrooms

The hotel offers a range of beautifully appointed rooms and suites with spectacular sea views. There are just nine rooms to choose from, making this a quiet retreat away from any hustle and bustle. All are decorated in a contemporary Mediterranean style; some have private balconies or terraces. The main suite has a beautiful corner balcony with outdoor furnishings, including sun loungers. 

Other Highlights

Though you'll be set atop a cliff, you'll still enjoy direct beach access. The hotel also features a restaurant serving delicious Mediterranean cuisine and a bar and lounge for evening cocktails. Enjoy your meals outside on the large terrace or relax in the inner courtyard garden, which leads to most rooms.
