Why choose an Emerald Stay accoHow to find the best accommodation in Costa Brava?mmodation for your next holiday in Costa Brava?

If you want to discover a specific historical town like Begur, visit emblematic places like Salvador Dalí's house in Port Lligat, live an unforgettable experience in the heart of nature in the Garrotxa Natural Park or simply enjoy the Mediterranean climate, there is no substitute for a week stay in the province of Girona... more precisely on the Costa Brava.

If you love dreamy blue holidays, Emerald Stay advises you to rent a private villa with a swimming pool by the sea. You'll be just a few steps from the beach and you'll also enjoy a breathtaking view of the Mediterranean Sea. Forget noisy properties: your villa or apartment in Spain will bring you the greatest comfort.

If you're looking for a modern, sleek home with its own private garden, Emerald Stay can also point you in the direction of the perfect Costa Brava holiday rental.

Whichever you choose, you can be sure to find the perfect accommodation for a relaxing summer in Spain. In fact, Emerald Stay has prepared a selection of the best Costa Brava rentals, chosen just for you from the most beautiful houses, apartments and villas in the Catalonia region.

All you have to do is make your decision according to your availability and the number of bedrooms you are looking for. You can also ask for advice from our concierges, experts in all things Costa Brava to help you book your rental if you need it. 

Why choose an Emerald Stay accommodation for your next holiday on the Costa Brava?

Whether you're looking for a private villa with a pool by the sea or a charming house in the heart of the Costa Brava's unspoilt nature, you're sure to love Emerald Stay's selection. This is especially true if you don't want to spend your holiday in a small bedroom in a hotel. In fact, we've gathered the best rentals in the Costa Brava (and Spain in general) for you.

This means that you're sure to find what you're looking for, no matter what type of holiday accommodation you select from Emerald Stay. Simply make a list of your requirements and choose according to your availability. In fact, the majority of our luxury villas, apartments and houses on the Costa Brava have a private swimming pool, a large terrace and a spacious garden. Our rentals are also in a privileged location so that you can enjoy the views (both of the sea and the surrounding landscape) throughout your stay.

However, Emerald Stay is also a private concierge service that aims to make your holiday in Spain a truly memorable one. Just tell us what you want (including arranging your airport transfer - day or night) and our team will take care of the rest. Also, ask our travel assistants for advice on must-see sights for any stay on the Costa Brava.

To add comfort and luxury to your holiday in Spain, Emerald Stay also equips all of its prestige Costa Brava rentals with great facilities. The bedrooms will be equipped with the essentials of luxury linens so that you can spend every night in a comfortable bed. The bathrooms will be equipped with sustainable products of natural and artisanal origin. If you want to be even more ensured of how prestigious our properties are, take your time to read reviews left by previous guests who spent their nights in our villas and apartments.

Costa Brava accommodation - What kind of property should you choose?

For a stay in Spain, there is certainly no shortage of apartments or houses available for rent. However, an apartment in a touristy property is not always pleasant. If you are looking for a more prestigious holiday home, Emerald Stay's Costa Brava rentals are likely to satisfy your needs.

In fact, the villas and houses we offer boast a number of important features. With a private swimming pool, a terrace with panoramic views or a landscaped garden, your holiday home on the Costa Brava will offer you comfort and luxury.

In any case, you can ask the Emerald Stay team for advice on the best Costa Brava rental according to your availability and the number of bedrooms you need. You can choose a villa by the sea (with breathtaking views) or a house nestled in the heart of lush nature for a unique holiday in Spain.  

Why organise your next holidays on the Costa Brava?

Organising your next holiday on the Costa Brava in Spain means enjoying a typically Mediterranean climate. Throughout the year, this city in Spain has an average temperature of 19°C. During the summer season (July-August), temperatures can even reach 30°C. For a sunny beach holiday, it is advisable to visit Costa Brava during this period. Even at night, you can enjoy the terrace of your villa, apartment or house on the Costa Brava. However, in autumn (Oct.-Nov.) and winter (Dec.-Feb.), the Costa Brava still offers a mild and pleasant climate.  

A holiday in the province of Girona, Spain, is also an opportunity to experience unique adventures in an idyllic destination. For example, you can visit the beautiful fishing village of Cadaques and go on a fantastic walk in the middle of the Cap de Creus nature park. Likewise, visit the secluded coves and family beaches of the seaside town of Roses. On the Girona coast, the medieval town of Begur stands out for its many 'casas de indianos' (stately houses in the Indian style). Begur also offers its visitors a breathtaking view of the Mediterranean.

In any case, the Costa Brava is a privileged destination where you can find heavenly coves, authentic historic villages, beautiful natural parks and small fishing ports with a delightfully old-fashioned atmosphere. To make the most of your stay in this region of Catalonia in Spain, choose the best apartment, house or villa rental with the help of Emerald Stay. 

Where in Spain is Costa Brava located?

The Costa Brava is a charming and authentic seaside resort and is a must-see holiday destination during a stay in Spain. The town is located in the northeast of Catalonia, in the province of Girona.

The Costa Brava covers an area of 255 km, bordered by the town of Cadaques (to the north) and the town of Blanes (to the south).

The Costa Brava takes advantage of its privileged geographical situation to allow visitors to easily reach this city in northern Spain from France (by road) or from Barcelona airport. In any case, the Costa Brava has many charming villages that are well worth a visit. Cadaques, Rosas, Escala, Empuriabrava, Begur, and many more will certainly convince you.

Where to stay in Costa Brava?

If you are planning your next holiday in Costa Brava, you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to accommodation. There are many apartments and houses, or even hotels, available for rent in the city. However, for a successful stay in Spain, Emerald Stay recommends you choose a luxury rental. In this case, your exclusive apartment, private villa or exceptional house by the sea will have unique assets.

Note for example the bedrooms equipped with the essential luxury bed linen and the cosy bathrooms. Also check the presence of a private swimming pool, spacious terrace or landscaped garden for your holiday home on the Costa Brava. If you're not sure which one to choose, don't hesitate to ask the Emerald Stay concierges for advice.

In any case, the Costa Brava is made up of several characterful villages that will satisfy your desire for a change of scenery. Choosing a contemporary 4-bedroom (and 4-bathroom) villa in Aiguablava offers breathtaking views, with the Mediterranean Sea as a backdrop. A sumptuous 7-bedroom, an en-suite villa on the small hillside of Calella de Palafrugell, on the other hand, will give you the chance to recharge your batteries in the middle of nature.

Similarly, a luxury house with direct access to the beach of Aiguablava and the Port d'Esclanyà will give you hypnotic views of the breathtaking landscape. While a traditional house in Begur will reward you with a quiet atmosphere and enchanting surroundings.

If you need help booking your dream beach holiday home on the Costa Brava, get in touch with the Emerald Stay team.

What is the most beautiful town of Costa Brava?

Costa Brava has several unusual places that deserve your attention. The town of l'Escala, for example, is characterised by a beautiful protected natural area, ideal for yachtsmen. The town of Empuriabrava, on the other hand, offers a lot of charm thanks to its beaches and coves with crystal clear waters. Empuriabrava also has a multitude of seaside villas.

Also, consider Empuriabrava's neighbouring town, Roses (or Rosas). The privileged geographical location of this town (sheltered by two natural parks) makes it an ideal destination for an authentic holiday in Spain while remaining close to the French border.

Of course, this is not an exhaustive list of the most beautiful places on the Costa Brava. If you are having trouble choosing the right city for your Costa Brava holiday, ask Emerald Stay's travel assistants for advice. Depending on your availability and the number of bedrooms you need in your holiday home in Spain, we will help you choose the ideal place to rent your exceptional apartment, house or villa.

What to do in Costa Brava?

Costa Brava also offers a myriad of activities to do throughout your stay or a week or a weekend.

For your holiday in the Costa Brava in the winter, you can, surprisingly, plan activities in the mountains. For example, you can take a walk on the slopes of the nearby ski resorts (La Molina, Masella, Núria and Vallter 2000, Guils de Cerdanya). Or in the summer, can also hike along the coastal paths overlooking the coves and beaches. A mountain bike ride is also a good family activity.

To discover the natural wealth of the region, opt for outings to the three natural parks of the Costa Brava. The maritime and terrestrial park of Cap de Creus is home to many natural and cultural gems. The Aiguamolls d'Empordà nature park (south of Empuriabrava) is a must for horse and bird lovers. Finally, the last natural park brings together three spectacular areas: Montgri, Islas Medes and Baix Ter.

Another highlight of your stay on the Costa Brava is walking the Ronde paths (an experience you can also enjoy with your children). 

You could also spend the day swimming, either in one of the many stunning beaches of the region, or in the private swimming pool of your apartment, house or villa!

You may also be tempted to visit the small medieval villages of the Costa Brava. Pals, Peratallada, Palau Sator, Ullastret, Begur, etc., you will find various historical monuments that will make your stay in Catalonia a real moment of discovery.  

What are the most beautiful beaches in Costa Brava?

A summer holiday on the Costa Brava cannot do without swimming in the Mediterranean Sea. One of the most famous beaches on the Costa Brava is Port Bo beach in Calella de Palafrugell. The small boats washed up on its sand give this place a postcard look.

You can also discover the beautiful Cap Roig beach in Calonge. This dreamy beach in the village of Sant Antoni has calm waters surrounded by pine trees.

Likewise, consider the small 80-metre beach of Sa Tuna (5 km from Begur), which is defined by a remarkable cove overlooking crystal-clear waters.

How to get to Costa Brava?

Reach the Costa Brava by :

  • Car: from the regional roads and the Autovía del Mediterráneo ;

  • Bus: there are many companies that connect the different villages of the Costa Brava and the Girona Pyrenees;

  • Air: the Costa Brava is served by Girona-Costa Brava airport (southeast of the city of Girona) and Barcelona-El Prat international airport.
