Sitges holiday apartment

What an experience! This apartment, as others have said, is just stunning, with the most inspiring, unforgettable sea views. We found the owner Ramon to be considerate and reliable, he even helped us get internet access and to book a taxi at the end. The place is pretty incomparable. You experience all the moods of the sea here, and can watch the sun rise and set from the 180 degree circular windows, AND see the stars at night. We had dinner most nights on the lovely balcony, and as folks on a special diet it was great to be able to cook our own meals with the cooking facilities provided. The apt is on two storeys joined by an atmospheric spiral stair case. It is like being in a castle turret, or lighthouse, with the sea all around you. The huge bed is extremely comfortable with views direct on sea. The only possible note of caution we would sound does not concern the apt itself, but the challenge of getting here via public transport with lots of luggage. Be warned that there are lots of stairs to negotiate both when you arrive with your luggage at the railway station and en route to the complex. The taxi cannot drop you right at the door of the apt, it takes you to a car park and from there you have quite a little walk and need to transport the baggage across a foot bridge and stairs. This can be quite tough going. But once you get here, definitely worth it. And Sitges with all its beaches and cafes, the exclusive marina and luxury specialty shops - such a lovely, beautiful, characterful, relaxing place to explore. You will probably, like us, just wish you could stay longer.

I agree with everything said previously about this apartment. It has a stunning STUNNING location, is very tastefully furnished, well equipped and is part of a quiet and well maintained complex. Ramon is a gracious and thoughtful host and was a pleasure to deal with throughout. There is beautiful family beach less than a couple of minutes from the apartment and en route to the marina which sits at the far side of the beach. The marina has some beautiful restaurants and was relatively quiet even in early August 2008. Elegant Sitges - situated on the far side of the marina - is a 20 -25 minute (hilly) walk but takes less than 5 minutes by car (with ample free parking close to the town centre). Trains from Sitges to Barcelona run every about every 20 minutes, are cheap and the jouney lasts about 40 minutes. Thoroughly reccommended.
