Hostal de la Gavina, Girona

A true heaven of peace. We spent three nights in La Gavina for celebrating our engagement. The hotel is a magical place mixing elegance, refinement and simple true luxury. From the main pool overlooking the bay of S’Agaro to the gardens to the authentic interiors of the hotel and rooms, everything is a beauty.
We are LHW members, and the hotel was very generous to give us an upgrade to a Junior Suite with a huge terrasse. That room decoration set you back to the past, a remarkable atmosphere, and we could not better start the day by enjoying the sunrise while doing meditation on the terrasse.
We really liked the indoor pool area and jacuzzi. The fitness equipped with a few Technogym machines is also functional.
About restaurants, breakfast room was grandiose but the breakfast offering was lacking a bit of choices. Especially the service was disappointing and not matching at all the levels of standards of the hotel. There were the only little disappointment of our experience.
We ate a few times in the restaurant at the entrance of the hotel, the food was good but the service given by the same staff from breakfast was average.
However, the Candlelight restaurant was an incredible experience, the service was remarkable with passionate waiters who were so delighted to make us feel happy. We went for the menu which was an absolute delight, probably one of the best food experience we ever had. The restaurant room is also magnificent, we were accompanied by a pianist. This restaurant should deserve a Michelin star, far more than other Michelin restaurants.
Overall, we left the hotel with great joy having spent a memorable experience in this magnificent jewel.
