Hotel Cap Sa Sal, Begur, Catalonia, Spain - Explore & Book
"Sustainable design meets barefoot luxury at this adults-only boutique hideaway in the Costa Brava. Once the humble servants' quarter for the glamorous resort next door, this stone-walled bolthole has been stylishly renovated to house 10 romantic rooms that overlook the shimmering Mediterranean Sea. In each room, refurbished furniture and recycled bathroom doors earn the hotel some green points; while clever use of space maximises those stunning sea views (even the open-plan sinks face the sea). Most rooms (8 out of 10) have ocean-facing terraces, perfect for evening aperitifs before heading to the hotel’s glass-walled restaurant.Tucked away on a cliff-side and hidden behind a forest of pines, Cap Sa Sal feels alluringly secluded. Adding to its enigmatic appeal, a secret tunnel (accessed from the next door resort) leads to a swimming pool set into the rocks. There’s a smaller outdoor Jacuzzi pool too, as well as private beach access and pretty little inlets dotted nearby. The beautiful hilltop town of Begur, with its medieval castle and charming restaurants, is just a 5-minute drive. Perfect for a romantic escape by the sea, or a tranquil break from the kids.
