Hotel Blaumar Cadaqués is in Cadaqués
Cadaqués is the focal point of the Cap de Creus peninsula, which is an outstanding maritime and terrestrial natural park on account of the diversity of the marine species found there and the shapes of its rocks sculpted by the Tramuntana wind. All round the Cap de Creus, which faces over the Gulf of Lions, are inaccessible islets, cliffs and coves. Though the waters look calm, sea goers have nicknamed it “the Devil’s Cape” and it abounds in tales of shipwrecks and rescues.
The outlines of the rocks (which Dalí described as “a grandiose geological delirium”) inspired his well-known pictures with double images. The views from the lighthouse (built in 1850 on the site of an old watchtower) have been used in various films, including The Light at the Edge of the World (1971), directed by Kevin Billington and starring Kirk Douglas and Yul Brynner.
In the last centuries being a fishing village, it was from the 50's when Cadaqués was opened universally. It has been visited by a large number of artists throughout the twentieth century: Picasso, Matisse, Max Ernst and Federico García Lorca (invited by Dali himself to his home when they were young students in Madrid). The streets of the fishing village, which for centuries suffered from pirate raids, the characteristic brand of Catalan spoken by the local people, the whitewashed houses, and the atmosphere of freedom still make it unique.
The geographical location of Cadaqués is just outstanding. Its bay is the largest natural harbor in the Costa Brava. Often the boats moored in it are of enormous dimensions. As we arrive to the village we cross the National Park of Cape Creus, a small peninsula that sits on a geological fault with more than 400 million years old. Today the park is classified by authorities as a protected natural environment.
Portlligat beach is near Cadaqués, just over a kilometer. It still seems as it was painted by the great Salvador Dalí : narrow and surrounded by rocks ...but who looks Cadaqués just for its beach? The village is full of cultural attractions that visitors can not miss. First, the Home-Museum of Salvador Dali, also in Portlligat, the first vertex that forms the Dalí triangle (made also by Púbol Castle and the Theatre-Museum Dalí in Figueres). Cadaqués center also houses several art galleries and the church of Santa Maria, from the seventeenth century, late Gothic styled, surrounded by numerous small streets that go to the beach. Cadaqués Museum has works made by Dali and other artists. Inside the Church of Santa Maria is a magnificent Baroque altarpiece, and a walk along the seafront to the small lighthouse of Cala Nans is an unforgettable experience.
Cadaqués is also a village of coffee and bars next to the beach. The old quarter is full of trendy shops and craft workshops. From Easter it begins to fill with tourists.
Undoubtedly Cadaqués is a must for anyone wishing to know the essence of the Costa Brava and especially the Dali Universe.

Not much I began to wonder, having read other reviews of this hotel, whether we had come to the same place! The room was small and only adequately furnished. The 'balcony' only had room for one [small] chair. There was no mini bar or fridge.The bed was, as usual, hard, but the worst thing of all was that the AC was turned off for the winter (in the middle of September, with OAT in the mid-20s and high humidity) which gave two 'sweaty' nights). The bathroom was small, so in order to dry oneself, one had to step outside. The mirror was too far away and the selection of toiletries poor. What was worst of all, was that there was no handle to assist old duffers to step into and out of the [over-bath] shower - someone will fall and break a leg. Everything was 'extra' - car parking, breakfast, and even if you brought your own baby cot that was €10 extra. |

Very clean, nice and quite area, yet 5 minutes walk to the centre of town. Good sized room, relatively large. First time I asked for an iron they said they only had the industrial one, but hours later I asked to another receptionist he fetched one. At first I thought "how could they not have one iron in the hotel..." |

Nearly all (see across) The one bad point was the lack of a taxi service in the town. There are two golf buggy type vehicles, but they only start their service at 9.30 am, so I had to walk from the hotel to the bus station with a heavyish case to catch the 8.30 bus to Figueres. At least it wasn't raining! |

The hotel is well-situated and the rooms are comfortable and clean. The garden area is lovely and the view lets you imagine that you are almost in the mountains The pool is smaller than the photos suggest. The rooms on the side closest to the entrance can be a bit noisy at night as there is a park opposite, but that was not every night |

The hotel is spotlessly clean, whitewash walls and mediterranean blue upholstery and trimmings. It was calm and restful, although I sensed it was a little too formal in some ways that I can't quite put my finger on. It was very quiet and I think all the rooms face over the town and to the bay of Cadaques. A short walk to the Dali house in Port Lligat too. The hotel is a little out of town but the walk is truly lovely - though less so with luggage, so not one for less than a few nights. The swimming pool is very deep which is fine for swimmers but it was overwhelming for my 7 year old who has just started. We bought her a float and it was fine, but I was surprised the hotel didn't keep floats to loan. The pool opening times were too rigid - I think 11.30am-8pm - as in summer I like to be able to have an early morning and / or late night swim. The breakfast was overpriced for what you get. |

La ubicación: no está en el centro de Cadaqués, lo cual podría ser ruidoso, pero tampoco está lejos. El jardín es muy agradable y la piscinita está impecable. Buenas vistas desde el jardín también. Algo caro considerando que no incluía desayuno. Por el precio, 91 euros la noche, debería incluir el desayuno. La habitación olía mucho a pintura. Tal vez deberían pintar en pleno invierno. |
