Aiguaclara , 10 rooms
From: To: Availability
This is a family-run boutique hotel in the center of Begur. The boutqiue hotel and romantic restaurant are housed in a Colonial Palace dating from the 19th century.
Each individually decorated room is charming and bedrooms and bathrooms all enjoy an exterior position. Walk through the Aiguaclara's interiors and discover curious features which date back to its glorious past. The staircase has lovely, wrought-iron railings and floors are beautifully tiled. Original features contrast against contemporary furniture and modern design details.
The hotel is next to the best beaches and golf courses along the Costa Brava. Make the most of the sunshine this region enjoys much of the year. After seeing the sights, return for a delicious meal in the hotel's characterful restaurant.
Aiguaclara is in Begur
Begur is a lovely village in the heart of the Costa Brava, located in the massif of the same name. In his town, dominated by the XIth century castle, you will find so famous beaches in all Costa Brava as Aiguablava, Sa Tuna, Sa Riera, Aiguafreda, Platja Fonda or Fornells. In the center of village there are traces of Indian architecture, from the nineteenth century.
Located in the heart of Empordà (Ampurdán), protected by the mountains massif from where it took its name, the town of Begur is one of the most charming and secluded villages of the Costa Brava.
The medieval village of Begur has a charm derived from its ancient history. Located in the mountains of Begur, these mountains that surround the village are the clues to understand its origins. In the era of piracy, through the XVII-XVIIIth centuries, center of any village should not be located right on the coast but inside. Indeed, Begur, 192 meters above sea level, has this quality perfectly fulfilled and so it grew over the centuries, with its defensive towers protecting against pirates.
The imposing silhouette of its medieval castle over the town, the many American colonial style villas built by the emigrants that came back from America after making a fortune in XIXth century, the medieval layout of its narrow streets, the little houses of fishermen that can still be seen in some of the creeks that surround Begur, they all shape the identity of a people who have lived almost facing the sea and is now a major tourism focus in the whole of the Costa Brava.
The historic center of Begur is riddled with monuments which are inherited from a past that still remains in its stones, as the Church of Sant Pere, the house Pella and Forgas, Mas Pinc, where lived and died the great flamenco singer Carmen Amaya ... the castle itself, destroyed several times throughout its history.
Without a doubt the most distinctive natural landscape of Begur is formed by the set of eight small creeks and beaches that surround it, some of the most beautiful of the Costa Brava due to its location between cliffs and clear blue waters: Sa Riera, Sa Tuna, Aiguablava, Fornells, Platja Fonda, Aiguaxelida, Illa Roja.

The location in the centre of town. The parking although expensive was good. The room was spacious and clean. Asked for a quiet room with a view. Got neither. Room was on ground floor off entrance hall, so noisy. The dinning room had inadequate heating so eating breakfast or an evening meal was cold and unpleasant. The decor was shabby chic. |

Johan and Clara and their staff looked after us very well. Informed us on what to do and see in the area and where to eat. All was very good. Hot breakfast would have been better. However, I believe most B n Bs in Europe only do the continental style |

The aigua clara has a uniquely creative design and feel, which makes if feel like a beautiful home away from home. The owners have thought of every detail, even providing beach towels and an 'honesty bar' stacked with anything you might need.They go out of their way to make you feel welcome and taken care of. I have no criticism of the hotel, but I would not recommend Begur as an ideal holiday destination for solo travellers. I did not meet a single other solo traveller whilst I was there, its mainly families with small children, and couples, and I was refused a table for one in several of the restaurants. This has never happened to me before, and I have travelled extensively. |

Decor. Owner treat you like guests in their own home. Facilities are lovely. This is not a hotel for those who want 24 hr concierge, mini bars and haute cuisine restaurant. That was perfect for us, but is is more like a grown up guest house than a sophisticated hotel. Watch out for a child in the room above. One that plays with wheeled toys on the terracotta tiled floor or bounces a ball. The noise is awful, but the owner immediately spoke with the parents and the noise reduced. |

Superb hotel, very quirky but beautifully furnished - utterly characterful. Great staff, good food, excellent value! A real one off. No hot water on 2 mornings, noise from other guests in the mornings closing the original double doors that every room has! |

Es un hotel con encanto donde estás a gusto y te permite no tener que salir gracias a su restaurante y otras opciones disponibles como el vídeo en la habitación, películas, libros, erc. Es un trato personalizado. Todo ha sido correcto, el desayuno es a las 9 y quizás se podría adelantar a las 8. |
