Malgrat De Mar – Costa Barcelona, Costa Brava, Spain

The main buffet restaurant is bright and contemporary, with show-cooking stations and a mix of Mediterranean and international favourites for breakfast, lunch and dinner (seasonal opening). Menus are designed to feel light and fresh – ideal for long days in the sun.

You’ll also find two stylish bars: a spacious lobby bar that keeps the cocktails and coffee coming into the evening, and a relaxed pool bar open through the day so you never have to stray far from your lounger. A smart dress code may apply for dinner, and beachwear is generally not permitted inside the restaurant. Reservations, seasonal variations and supplements can depend on your chosen board basis – check locally for the latest details.

If you opt for Full Board when available, you’ll usually enjoy buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main restaurant, making it easy to keep costs predictable. For more flexibility with evenings out in town, Bed and Breakfast or Half Board work brilliantly. What All Inclusive typically includes.

Outdoors, AQUA Hotel Silhouette & Spa is all about unhurried, sun-drenched days. There are three freshwater pools to choose from, each with its own personality:

– A main pool with ample sunbeds and parasols, ideal for a dip between chapters of your book
– A second pool featuring Balinese beds and a more exclusive, loungey feel
– An elegant infinity-style pool where the water seems to blend into the gardens, perfect for slow laps or sunset swims

Pool towels are provided with a refundable deposit, so you can travel lighter. All three pools generally operate from late March to early November, depending on occupancy and weather.

The nearest beach is around 250m away – a long, golden stretch that Malgrat De Mar is famous for. Expect plenty of space, gently shelving water and a choice of beach bars, plus a handsome promenade made for early morning runs or evening strolls.

Wellness is a real focus here. The spa (seasonal opening) offers:

– Sauna and steam room (local charges)
– Whirlpool and relaxation areas (local charges)
– A menu of massage and beauty treatments (local charges)

Guests staying four nights or more typically receive one day of complimentary spa access (excluding treatments) – a lovely perk for longer stays.

If you like to stay active, there’s an air-conditioned gym with both cardio and strength equipment, open daily in season, plus bike storage if you’re planning to explore the Costa Brava on two wheels.

Elsewhere, daily daytime entertainment can include low-key activities such as arts and crafts, team games and water-based sessions, while in the evening you can expect a rotating programme of live music, DJs, karaoke and shows (all seasonal and subject to change).

You’ll also benefit from a 24-hour reception with concierge-style support and luggage storage, so late check-outs or early arrivals are easier to manage.
