Hotels
Although the bulk of holiday accommodation in this fishing village comprises of private apartments and houses, there are also five hotels in Port de la Selva.
The choice is certainly better than a decade ago and while the Porto Cristo is a long standing feature of the town, newer hotels mean there is more variety than before.
The town is fairly small and so unless you want to get out of town a car often isn’t required. And as well as the main beach there are a number of other beaches and coves within walking distance. See the main page on Port de la Selva for more detailed information about the town.

Hotel Mar D’Amunt
****s Carrer del Mar, 2
A boutique hotel in a converted house right on the sea front in the harbour, Mar D’Amunt has just ten guest rooms and opened in the summer of 2016.
Each room is tastefully decorated and there is a tasting bodega and rooftop terrace among the facilities on offer. Guests also have access to spa facilities at two local hotels and to the open air swimming pool at Club Nautic.
The hotel is ideal situated in Port de la Selva and close to a number of restaurants. It’s also an easy walk to the main beach.
Hotel Porto Cristo
**** Carrer Major, 59
The 4-star Porto Cristo has long been a feature of Port de la Selva and with 50 refurbished rooms and a spa facilities. It is also a short distance down to the main beach.
The original building dates from the mid 19th century, although it has been extended since and features a lounge with panoramic views of the sea and mountains. There is also a ground floor restaurant and a roof terrace to enjoy the summer evenings.
Hotel Spa Cap de Creus
*** Carrer Illa, 10
Hotel Cap de Creus is located right next to the fisherman’s port after the area was redeveloped in 2007 and is actually above the indoor fish market.
There are just 24 rooms in the hotel, most of which have a small kitchen area and many rooms are complete with a Jacuzzi. Most have sea views and some also have terraces and there are also rooms with a sofa bed in addition to the double bed. In many respects the rooms are more like fully serviced apartments than hotel rooms.
The hotel is a short distance from the main beach and close to a number of restaurants.
Hotel Àgora
** Carrer Major, 57
If you’re looking for slightly more basic accommodation the Hotel Àgora might just do the job. It’s an easy walk to the main beach and to the town’s shops and restaurants.
Reception is located in the nearby Porto Cristo and there is no lift but the hotel does boast a rooftop terrace. In addition to the restaurant there is also a communal kitchen area with basic facilities including fridge and microwave.
Cal Mariner
* Carretera de Cadaqués, 2
Cal Mariner is just across the road from the beach, so close you can almost touch it!
The hotel was built in the 2000s on a narrow strip of land requiring it to be designed in a rather angular shape that reminds me of a ship. It has a family run restaurant specialising in rice and fresh seafood which used to be located near the fishing harbour before it was redeveloped.
Hostals
In addition to the hotels are a number of hostals offering more basic accommodation. Note that the star system is different to that used on hotels and you may have shared bathroom facilities.
Hostal L’Arola
** Carretera de Llança a Port de la Selva
Hostal L’Arola is on the edge of town with a small campsite adjacent. It’s right on the sea and has just 20 rooms in addition to the campsite. It’s not far to walk into town though for restaurants and shops or to go to the main beach.

Hostal La Tina is long established in Port de la Selva and located in an 18th century cellar used today as a restaurant.
A number of rooms and apartments are available to stay, while the restaurant specialises in rice dishes and local seafood.
Hostal Germán
* Av Poeta Sagarra, 11
Rooms at Hostal Germán are comfortable but basic with private balconies offering sea views.
Although a few streets from the seafront, the beach is only a few minutes walk. It is slightly elevated, affording it those sea views. Note that some rooms have shared bathroom facilities.
Hostal Sol i Sombra
* Carrer Nou, 8-10
Hostal Sol i Sombra has 14 rooms and a restaurant offering the local cuisine.
Originally a restaurant that opened in 1954, Sol i Sombra also offers basic accommodation and is within an easy walk of the beach and all facilities offered by the town.
