“Already looking to come back here next year!”

We are staying at the Hotel Garbí, and it is so lovely! Staff are awesome and ‘can do’. Full spread for breakfast (also important for me!! Love my food!).

We are staying at the Hotel Garbí, and it is so lovely! Staff are awesome and ‘can do’. Full spread for breakfast (also important for me!! Love my food!). Also, as a coeliac, the basket of GF bread and cakes, at breakfast, a pleasant surprise! Room is spotless, we went for a sea view balcony room. Pool area really relaxing and spacious, with some super comfy four poster bed sun loungers! The village of CDP itself is a gem, not an all day breakfast in sight (nothing wrong with an all day breakfast of course. ;0). We came here before, and stayed in the Hotel Mediteranni ( also awesome!). Nice to have the option of a pool this time. The Spar shoot in the village is a tardis for sure! Selling, ab this is niche need for me: FreeDamn AF GF beers, in extra malty and also lemon flavours! Just love everything about this place!

“A comfortable, historic hotel on the hill overlooking Calella de Palafrugell.”

We loved sitting on our balcony, which had sea views as well as overlooking the town. The alfresco dining (breakfast and dinner (set menu) were and very tasty. The pool area offers sun and shade and a separate kids area and hot tub. You can also get a massage poolside. The room was generously sized and the air conditioning was up to the task. We had a very comfortable bed. There was also plenty of storage space and room for our two large suitcases. The hotel is walking distance to beaches, bars and restaurants. Our only complaint was that the shower was over a deepish spa bath; personally we’re not fans of that arrangement.

Having decided where we visiting, it was what hotel to stay in. We chose Garbi are in hindsight we were right. Sea view room was a good size , but needed the bedside units to be much bigger , to enable clothe storage. Staying a week we found storage limited. And tills? When you bought a drink, at the inside or outside bar, there were no tills. The staff member had to walk to the rear of the dining room to the only till. Big plus was the pool, jacuzzi, and surrounding sun beds. No other hotel offered this . You didn't have to walk to one of the small beaches, to swim. There were many seating areas also, in the garden surrounding the restaurants. With pine trees, offering shaded areas. The breakfast buffet offered a wide range of cold and hot foods, and was terrific. We ate in the evening and had a very good meal, at reasonable prices. The staff were all very friendly, everywhere was clean. All in all a very good experience

Stayed here May 24, delayed flight connections meant didn't arrive until 3.30 am however someone on reception 24/7 . Room overlooking sea with balcony. No tea or coffee making facilities in our room although we gather there was in some types of rooms . Bit of a lack of drawer space , only a wardrobe so lived out of suitcase. Breakfast was good with fresh baked rolls . Being early season restaurant did not open for lunch and only saw one couple using it on an evening. Pool side bar not open in May so no means to get a drink or a coffee when at pool. Pool was OK but trees drop needles all-day long so a bit of a surface cover of pine needles to swim through. Hot tub was available although didn't use it . Staff all very pleasant and most speak broken English , some waitresses fluent. Within walking distance, 10 mins , from the sea with a lot of restaurants and shops . Unspoilt part of Spain , no ALLDAY BRITISH BREAKFAST , bingo or WE SELL JOHN SMITHS , type places , thankgoodness. Overall hotel good value and well probably return, but maybe in June when restaurant open for lunch , poolside coffees.
