Holiday Apartments Costa Dorada and Holiday Villas Costa Dorada
The golden, glittering sand of Costa Dorada does this beach’s name justice – “Gilded Coast” would be one way to translate it. With wide beaches, plenty of sun and the beautiful blue Mediterranean spanning endlessly upon the horizon, this extensive stretch of coastline just south of Barcelona has numerous hotels, resorts, holiday rentals, charming little coastal villages with self catering cottages and safe beaches that make the Costa Dorada one of the best destinations in Spain for family vacations and holidays.If you are travelling to the Costa Dorada on a family holiday, a relaxing alternative is to book a holiday home with room for the whole family. This is ideal for family travelers who want to relax without packing up and moving the whole time. When the parents want to take a day trip or a romantic weekend getaway – a holiday within a holiday, if you will – then it is easy to take advantage of the babysitting and nanny services provided by many of the major resort destinations. There is plenty to do and see, so you'll never run out of exciting distractions in Costa Dorada.
A great way to get a feel for the area is to rent a car, seeing as much of the coastline as one possibly can, exploring every nook and cranny of the Costa Dorada and discovering the most secluded alcoves imaginable, where the turquoise water provides a beautiful contrast to the yellow sand. Return at the end of a long day to the comfort of your holiday home and unwind.
Tarragona is the principle city upon the Costa Dorada, and serves as a perfect starting point to a tour of this beautiful stretch of watery delight. It is also a fascinating city by its own right, with an old city revealing mostly medieval architecture, despite the fact that the city dates back over 2,000 years, and certainly bears the marks of its Roman days. Indeed, a superb collection of Roman remnants includes the aqueduct, columns of the ancient fora and the amphitheatre, all of which rival Italian ruins in their magnificence. Here you'll find a spectacular offering of holiday apartments and holiday homes and Costa Dorada villas, from quaint to luxury, for every budget.
