Hotel Es Furió

We had dinner at Es Furio, the Menu del Dia. Fantastic value at €15.00 pp for 3 courses, bread and good local wine. We both had Gazpacho, Fiduea and ice cream. The service is very pleasant and the restaurant is family friendly. ||Jordi, the Patron, recognised us, although it is 4 years since our last visit to this wonderful village where we have had many happy family holidays over a period of 30+ years. ||||It is well worthwhile searching out this gem, only a minute's walk from the seafront. Yes, you sacrifice the view that can be had from the restaurants on the front but the quality and value make up for it. ||Incidentally, they also serve great pizzas.

Clean, quiet, with a comfortable bed and about 20 steps from an amazing beach (no view however). Great value at only 64 euros (off-season) and includes breakfast. There's a small bakery on the premises, so you'll awaken to the dreamy scent of croissants and can enjoy one with a lovely cappuccino in their small restaurant. I would like to thank the very kind and helpful owner for recommending another great hotel (Hotel Playa Sol, in Cadaques).

I can confirm others view that this is clean, spacious room, comfortable bed, great shower. However the set lunch, menu del dia, for 12 euro was amazing. Gazpacho, grilled turbot (OK just a small one but beautifully cooked and plenty for one), dessert and a carafe of wine.||By the way this is a great resort but the beach does fill up but when people go to lunch spaces do appear.

We stayed here with our twin 6 year olds in July 2014 (so two adults and two children). Quite comfortable room and beds, friendly owner, great continental breakfast, 20 meters from the beach. ||||Downsides were the street noise - but that's Spain - the restaurant seemed to have similar prices to the beachfront restaurants, and it was a little expensive for what was offered (although it is almost beachfront).||||Tamariu itself was wonderful. Full of tourists, but very small, great walks, good restaurants (except for the bloody smokers), nice beach. ||||Would we go back - yeah, absolutely!

After reading great reviews on TripAdvisor, we decided to try the set menu. Calamari starter was OK, fresh but nothing else to it. The paella was basically rice cooked with too much stock (store bought cube?)- black in color, probably added to by crust on the pan. The pan was to share; besides very salty black rice there were 2 prawns, a handful of pea-sized mussels, a tiny bit of chorizo here and there and that was it. Besides being very hungry, we couldn't eat any decent amount. Definitely don't t go there for paella!

The pizza was the worst I have eaten in years. Most ingredients are canned, doughy and topped with supermarket cheese. the service was appaulling, the woman owner cares not about the horrid service she gives. I would never go back and wish I had never been.

Food review. We did not stay at the hotel but we came up from the beach half dozen times over the last two visits to Tamariu to grab sandwiches to go. It’s run by a family and while their English is not strong they communicate well and sandwiches are great.

We are currently staying at this hotel in Tamariu. Our room is above the entrance which is on a corner of two very narrow streets.|There is no parking for our hire car anywhere near the hotel. In fact we are parked miles away. The hotel website states there is a garage?? We will be staying at nearby Llfranc tomorrow - away from the noise. |The room is very basic tho the wifi reception is good. ||One would hope that a hotel would reserve a few parking spots for its guests
