Map & location
Tossa De Mar, Costa Brava, Spain
Tossa De Mar is one of the Costa Brava’s most atmospheric resorts, where medieval stone walls tumble down to a sweep of deep-golden sand. Golden Bahia de Tossa & Spa sits in a handy spot within the town, close to local cafés and shops yet set back enough to feel resort-like and relaxed.
From the hotel you can wander down to Platja Gran to swim with views of Tossa’s iconic castle, or step through the old stone gates into the cobbled streets of the Vila Vella old town. If you’re keen to explore further, day trips to Girona, Barcelona or the pretty fishing villages of the northern Costa Brava are very straightforward from here.
- Beach (Platja Gran) 800m
- Tossa De Mar resort centre 900m
- Local shops, bars & restaurants within easy walking distance
- Approx. transfer time from airport 45 minutes (from Girona–Costa Brava Airport, GRO)
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
The hotel is designed around water fun. Outside you’ll find:
• Main outdoor freshwater pool – a large family-friendly pool with roomy sun terraces, sunbeds and parasols.
• Adults-only rooftop freshwater pool – on the roof terrace, with sunbathing area and bar; perfect for a quieter swim and a cocktail.
• Splash park – great for younger guests, with slides and water features (age/height restrictions may apply).
• Indoor freshwater pool – heated and located within the spa centre; ideal when the weather is cooler.
The indoor pool is generally heated between late March and early November, and outdoor facilities may operate seasonally depending on occupancy and weather. Tossa’s sandy beach is an easy walk away if you prefer a dip in the Mediterranean, with lovely views back to the town’s castle walls.
