If you've experienced this holiday first hand, why not write a review?
We are keen for as many customers as possible to review their holiday. To make it easier to do so, we include a specific review section on our post-holiday questionnaire, and this is what we publish here, unedited. Read our full review policy >
We loved this part of the Catalan coast - it was a real treat to see the Costa Brava as it would have been once upon a time. We loved the little coves and the colourful boat houses - in our mind's eye we could imagine several generations of Spanish families having days out on the beach. Friendly people and hotels. We had breakfast outside almost every day and even a swim in the sea - not bad for late October! Don't expect good vegetarian food in this region, but you won't starve if you manage your expectations! Our Barcelona add on was a real treat too. Another great Inntravel holiday. Thank you Inntravel!
This is a charming and delightful walk along a pretty coast. We thoroughly enjoyed strolling along, stopping for a lovely swim and delighting in a light lunch and a glass of Rosé or an ice cold beer at a beach cafe en route to our next destination or at our next destination. There were a couple of steep climbs which I would definitely class as Grade 2, and we were underwhelmed by Begur and the peninsular walk. All the hotels were great - we had a few interesting meals - our best one being the one we went out for on night one!! I am a huge fan of Inntravel who do a marvellous job of finding these lovely private holidays. Thank you.
This was such a wonderful holiday, thank you so much. Gorgeous hotels, stunningly beautiful scenery, lovely walking that seemed mainly just about within the grade, but surely grade 2 at times. We loved Catalonia and hope to return.
Please could you do more grade 1 holidays, we have had many walking and cycling holidays with you and others over the years, but now long for the same sort of holiday but easier. I suspect there are many like us, a potential big market. Ramblers do Adagio which is meeting the same need, but unfortunately for groups only. Also please more holidays in the winter months.

The walks are spectacular and not difficult especially in early autumn sun. All the hotels were comfortable with good views and swimming facilities. The food exceeded expectations especially at the Llevant hotel. All staff at both Inntravel and their chosen destinations were delightful.
What a beautiful part of Spain! We loved discovering the quieter part of the Catalan coast. The walk was along the coastal path for most of the time with a couple of breaks to cool off in the shady woods and experience a change of scenery. The views along the coast were stunning with picture postcard views at every twist and turn of the path. Every hotel provided a warm welcome and the standard of food was excellent. The Hotel S'Agaro offers a great setting with their gardens and pool as well as a beautiful patio for their outstanding breakfast. Hotel Ancora in La Fosca gave us a super-warm and friendly welcome and their paella had a big thumbs up from us. Hotel Sant Roc has the absolute best view of beautiful Calella de Palafrugell - our room felt like a perch over the Mediterranean. The hospitality and cuisine of the Hotel Llevant were second to none and it was very much worth upgrading to a room with sea view. Our last two nights at the Hotel Aigua Blava were bliss. We appreciated having a terrace to sit out on and enjoy the view and a lovely spacious room, and their breakfast won first prize on this trip. Stopping for lazy lunches at beachside restaurants every day is definitely something we could get used to! It's difficult to pick out highlights, but we'll go with walks and lunches in Calella de Palafrugell, exploring Begur and an amazing seafood lunch in Sa Tuna.
Walking along the Catalan coast was a revelation, with stunningly beautiful bays and hidden coves, pine clad hillsides and the bluest of sparkling seas. The path winds up over rocky headlands, through tunnels built into the cliff, and down to often very secluded beaches. We would do it all over again - though might be tempted to extend the holiday a little and spend a few nights longer in some of the resorts!
Highlights of the Catalan Coast were swimming in beautiful bays every day, great walks with stunning views alone rugged coast line. Walks were not as long as many of the other Inn Travel walks we have done so we had more time to enjoy the accommodation and time swimming each day. Would love to walk Along the Catalan Coast again.
Positano and Path of the Gods simply stunning views. Loved Marina Del Cantone feel very lucky to have been there.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers combined two Inntravel walking holidays - Along the Catalan Coast in Spain and Positano and Path of the Gods in Italy.
The Levant Hotel in Llafranc is family run, and service is particularly high.
Enjoyed the experience. The hard work was worth it.
We first did this holiday 5 years ago, our first walking holiday ever! We have holidayed with Inntravel every year since because we have found them very efficient and we have always been pleased with the accommodation. We decided to do this one again because we thought it was the best we've done so far. It's an interesting coastline, lovely views and the walks are challenging (for us anyway) in places, especially to the last hotel. We always add an extra night in each hotel so we can explore the local area and relax a while, rather than ploughing on the next day. Recommended restaurants - S'Agaro: Arnall Degustacio - deli/bar/cafe/restaurant - very nice simple menu of local cuisine - atmosphere changes up in the evening; Calella: Calau - fantastic tapas bar for lunch. When we were there 5 years ago this was very small, with just the two owners serving. Now it has moved a couple a metres up the hill into bigger premises and there are always queues, but they took our number and texted us when the table was ready. Girona: Brots de Vi - Small, looks like a cafe but again comes to life in the evening - we went there both nights - small simple local menu - booking essential as people were being turned away. I would avoid Independence Square for food based on our experience 5 years ago and comments from a couple who were at our hotel this time.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers enjoyed our Girona City add-on following our Along the Catalan Coast self-guided walking holiday.
The whole experience was first class, the scenery and variety of walking was wonderful and the Aigua Blava Hotel at the end was a much appreciated luxury.
One tip is insulated water bottles and fill them up every morning.
An easy walk with the most beautiful scenery! Unspoilt by tourism, excellent coastal path with the most wonderful swimming opportunities in delightful coves and great food on the beach or in little cafes along the way. A most relaxing holiday!
Weather was just right for walking, dry, a strong breeze, but not really warm enough sitting on sun beds. We loved the walking, very varied, and wonderful views, coves etc. We were an elderly party, 66 - 80 in age, and managed the walk very well, only struggling a bit on day 5, but we all made it, and enjoyed our evenings. Had some great salads at Puput, along the prom in Palamós bay, just after the footbridge over the canal - and resisted the invite from the manager of El Raco, who was now more welcoming than has been suggested before! If you like early morning tea, take a travel kettle, we found it invaluable as no hotels supply one. My big tip is to pack, and then remove half of it before you go, as repacking every day is a pain if your case is full, and we found you could rinse out clothes and get them dry at 2 night hotels.
Highlights: Wonderful walks and scenery...truly stunning countryside; hotel standard generally good; luggage transfers very smooth
Recommendations: If you are vegetarian be very clear what this means....it’s often understood as vegan; we would have liked some more demanding, optional walking routes....some days were too easy for us
The hotels were very good and the standard of cuisine was the best of all the ten Inntravel walking holidays we have now done. Everyone was very helpful and the coastal walking was extremely good except for the trudge along the two long promenade beaches on the day we walked to Fosca ( Ancora Hotel)
We were referred to Inntravel by my former manager who lives in the UK and has done a number of trips with the company. I have been wanting to try a walking holiday for a number of years and now that I am retired, we decided to combine a walking holiday with a 3 week tour "Highlights of Spain" that we took with our local university continuing studies travel program. The walking holiday was the highlight of our 6 weeks in Spain, and we'll definitely be looking to do another in the future.
Fantastic route with plenty of stopping points! Great mixture of woodland and coves. Lots of climbing steps each day. Hotels were great particularly Hotel Llevant.
One of our best Inntravel holidays, a delightful coastal path along this most beautiful and civilised and varied Mediterranean coastline. There are endless opportunities for swimming in the sea in stunning locations well away from the crowds. The hotels are all excellent, mostly located in interesting small towns. Our only problem was the gourmet food: our ageing legs can manage the walking with no problem, but our stomachs do not welcome multi course gourmet dinners late in the evening.
This is our third trip with Inntravel, and it lived up to our expectation, everything went as planned, no hitches anywhere. Very well organised. Thank you.
The quality of the hotels was excellent - far beyond anything we would book for ourselves. Guide notes and instructions were easy to follow. We took out the pages we needed for each day. Travel on Eurostar and TGV was more relaxing than flying.
This is a wonderful holiday. Perfect walking beside the mediterranean sea. The walks are not too strenuous, mostly on made up paths. There is some rocky parts and sand. We were glad we wore our walking boots. The scenery is outstanding and although the weather was more cloudy and sea more rough, I still swam in the sea. The food was outstanding at most of the selected hotels. We tended to take picnics rather than have sit down lunches by finding a supermarket before we set off each day. We found this more flexible, especially with a large meal provided each evening. Our third holiday with Inntravel and probably the best so far.
The highlight was the walking, it was excellent. A specific highlight was the crossing over a trail between Hotel Llevant and Hotel Aiqua Blava, where you had to time your bolt to safety with the waves washing over the trail. Locals, and travellers alike, were both helpful and entertained by the spectacle of travellers attempts to avoid the waves and stay dry!
Authentic food very much appreciated at the Flintstone Beach, seemed more "authentic" than anywhere else we ate at.
INNTRAVEL NOTE: These customers enjoyed our Along the Catalan Coast self-guided walking holiday followed by our Contrasts of Catalonia discovery walking holiday.
Another wonderful holiday! However, we thought the walk to Aiguablava had some very tricky ascents and descents at the end, which possibly should be grade 2 and described as such, to warn walkers expecting grade 1 throughout.
