The Hotel Amic Gala is a 126-room budget hotel located in the relatively quiet seaside town of Ca’n Pastilla, just a half block from the start of a superb sandy bay and beachfront promenade. It's also a 10-minute drive to the airport. Much of the property is in need of a refresh, including Standard Rooms, though Superior Rooms have been updated and are pleasant. Guests have access to the pool at Hotel Amic Miraflores, a one-minute walk away. Buffet dining is a good option, but costs extra and there are no a la carte items. It's certainly not the liveliest of hotels; most guests are here for the low rates and easy beach and airport access. For something more, the nearby Nautic Hotel features a rooftop pool and spa facilities, at a slightly higher cost.

The BQ Amfora Beach Hotel is an upper-middle-range property set in a quiet street a few minutes' walk from Can Pastilla's beachfront promenade and sweeping sandy bay. It's also just 10 minutes' drive from the airport, overhead noise is inevitable though not a deal-breaker for most travelers. The 126 rooms are certainly smaller than most, though all well soundproofed with balconies or terraces, plus good free Wi-Fi connections. The pool area is pleasant, if a little shady in the morning, and breakfast is a real highlight. A lack of spa or fitness facilities, however, means this property doesn't quite reach upscale standards. The BQ Aguamarina a couple blocks away certainly trumps the Amfora with a spa and panoramic rooftop pool -- plus a beachfront setting.

The family-friendly Giverola Resort is a simple value property set amid Mediterranean forests overlooking a gorgeous cove, a 10-minute drive from Tossa de Mar. It features 211 no-frills apartments and studios equipped with basic kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, and furnished terraces. Some units have wonderful sea views, but all lack air-conditioning and Wi-Fi. With dozens of sports activities and competitions throughout the day, indoor and outdoor pools -- including one with a big waterslide -- and access to two beaches, the hotel offers plenty to do both for adults and children. Extra fees can add up, though, with additional charges for parking and use of certain sports facilities. Those looking to stay closer to restaurants, bars, and shops may want to consider Hotel Costa Brava instead.
