Hotels in Lloret de Mar

Lloret de Mar has more accommodation options than you might imagine: at HotelsCasa you'll find 767 options, from apartments to villas, with an average price of 185 euros per night and the lowest at 52 euros. Most are apartments (319) and villas (238), so if you're looking for a hotel, there are 100, and the rest are divided between holiday homes, guest houses and the occasional pension like Hostal - Pensión El Amigo. The average category is around 3.4 stars, which gives you an idea that it's not a generally luxurious destination, but rather one of sun, beach and nightlife.

To choose an area, first think about what you're going to do. If you want beach and seafront promenade, the Fenals area is quieter than the center, with a wide cove and less noise at night. The center, around Lloret beach and Sant Pere street, is where the partying, bars and nightclubs are; it's best to stay there if you don't mind the bustle and want to walk everywhere. If you're looking for nature and silence, the Santa Cristina or Cala Canyelles residential developments are further away, but you'll need a car to go down to the beach or go shopping. Villas and holiday homes are concentrated in these residential areas, while apartments and hotels are closer to the town center.

As for prices, going in July or August is not the same as in May or September. High season drives rates up, and the average price of 185 euros rises considerably in August; if you can, travel in June or the second half of September, when the water is still warm and prices drop by up to 30%. To get there, the most practical option is to fly to Girona (30 km away) or Barcelona (75 km away); from there, a direct bus or a private transfer will get you to Lloret in less than an hour and a half. If you're driving, keep in mind that parking in the center in summer is expensive and complicated, so look for accommodation with a space included. Before booking, check whether the price includes final cleaning, bed linen and towels, and whether there's a security deposit; in apartments and villas it's common, and it can mean an extra 50 to 150 euros that they refund when you leave. Also check the real distance to the sea: many listings say "5 minutes", but on foot it can be half an hour uphill.
