Accommodation “Can Lamat”

“Can Lamat” is a different place. On Instagram I saw a photo of an infinity pool on a river. It caught my attention. I am used to seeing photos of luxurious hotels with infinity pools on the sea, but I have never seen it on a river. This differential fact has already captivated me; but when I found out that this is a one-apartment unit, I was shocked...

Hotel “Talk of the Town”

Aruba is very beautiful if you spend time discovering the interesting part of the island. The other part is like a big candy cake. Really. The authentic part is virgin and special; while the other is full of “all inclusive” macro hotels and pink casinos. I spent first nights in the boutique hotel “Boardwalk“. It is the antithesis of what Aruba...

Hotel “Llevant”

Few hotels have surprised me as much as this one. The history of the hotel dates back to 1935, when Maria Gratacós (“la Blanca”) founded a restaurant with rooms in the bay of Llafranc. It was originally called “Fonda Levante” and did not change its name until democracy arrived. Since then, it has not stopped serving. It is a reference in the...

Hotel Terradets

Hotel “Terradets”

I am in love with the Congost de Mont-rebei. I have seen it, by land, doing a hiking trail; but now I wanted to live and see it from the same river. I needed another perspective on the majesty of the place and so I organized a getaway. When I was young, I often used to go to Lake Terradets to see water skiing competition (a sport I practice in Ventalló and in...

Hotel “Edelweiss”

I had not been to Camprodon in a very long time but I kept many good memories and I was looking forward to go back.  When I got the chance to spend a weekend there, I was thinking a lot about the accommodation. I did not want to make mistakes. I needed a place where charm and tradition went hand in hand. I wanted to find a spot which had history, with a mountain...

Hotel “El Convent 1613”

I was especially excited to see “El Convent 1613“. I had liked everything I had seen or read and the fact that it used to be a convent especially provoked me. History tells that the original convent was located 6 km from the town and the inclement weather and austerity of the time were why it was abandoned. Then it was decided to move it to the town, in...

Hotel “Les Capçades”

This hotel is special. I arrived late after a busy day at work. I was nervous as if I was in a hurry, when, in fact, I was not. Claudia was the first to make me feel that there was something extraordinary inside those walls. I don’t know how she did it, but she slowed me down and her passion for the site was transferred to me in a few minutes. With an admirable...

Hotel “Themonies”

Impossible not to start talking about Mirka and Aggelos… are those people doing nice every second of your stay. They are always aware of everything. For me, met them marked a turning point in my particular relationship with Folegandros. Clearly, there is a before and after. His advice allowed me to know the essence of the island, helped me be part of it (even...

Hotel “Sofitel Legend Metropole”

The hotel is emblematic. It is a luxury hotel in colonial and neoclassical style. It is impeccably restored with exquisite design. It is elegant and refined. They take care and pamper all the details so that all the places are impeccable; and they get it. It is worth losing a few minutes to contemplate the facade. The building is white and uniform. All windows are...

Hotel “La Luna”

Arriving at “La Luna” hotel at night was my first contact with the Caribbean. It was raining. A propeller plane, unpainted and in an obvious state of decay, was waiting for us in Trinidad and Tobago. We came from New York, where the scene was completely different. Inside the plane we were about 12 people maximum, of which 6 were us. In Grenada, they made...
