The Best Romantic Plans in the Costa Brava

Mónica Boixeda Rankings, Travel Tips

Anyone who’s visited the Costa Brava knows that the beautiful beaches of the Caribbean and other faraway tropical islands have nothing on the beaches of Spain. We have our very own slice of paradise right here. Pals, Begur, Palamós, Calella… all have a unique allure that comes with fascinating natural landscapes, longstanding tradition and cool weather. And that’s why the best escapade for a few days off with your love interest is nowhere else than under the Catalan sun. Today we’re at our most romantic to bring you the perfect plan so you can whisk your loved one off on holiday.

Your love and you can delight in some wet cuddles right here, set against this idyllic backdrop. The beach is really small and you’ll need to get there early. It’s also important to help the place preserve its magic, so make sure you have as little impact on the landscape as possible when visiting.

#OnlyBeRevolution Manifesto

The Only Team #OnlyBeRevolution

Join the #OnlyBeRevolution and Win a Trip for Two!

The Only Team #OnlyBeRevolution

The #OnlyBeRevolution is here! The movement of travelers vindicating a different way to travel. Because it’s the moments that count, and not the number of nights you’re staying Because we can whip up an improvised dinner with whatever is left in the fridge Because we are travelers, not tourists At Only-apartments we’ve brought out our most rebellious side to shout out from the rooftops what many think but none dare say. And we’re counting on you to help us spread the word! Would you also rather stay at an apartment than at a hotel? Why? Join the #OnlyBeRevolution! How? All you need is a marker and a piece of white fabric (the larger the better). Write down the reason you’d rather choose an apartment over a hotel, get your picture taken with the message (it needs to be legible), share it on Instagram under the #OnlyBeRevolution hashtag and become eligible to win a fantastic trip for two.* But there’s more… In addition, all entries will be collected in a book we’ll publish under the title Manifesto #OnlyBeRevolution and of which you’ll be able to get a copy just by participating. Have a look at our compilation of #OnlyBeRevolution reasons if you like, and discover some of the reasons that make us choose for apartments when it comes to holiday accommodation. Dare to do it! *Check the Terms and Conditions of the contest here.... read more
