Timeless Mediterranean Retreat on Costa Brava
Situated on a hill just steps away from one of the most breathtaking beaches along northern Catalonia’s Costa Brava, the hotel Finca Victoria combines Mediterranean style with architectural and interior design by GCA Architects. Originally built in the 1960s, it is now restored to preserve the historical building, adding contemporary elements alongside bespoke furnishings.
Artisanal Touches Across 38 Guestrooms
Like the historical home, Costa Brava was once regarded as a place for celebrity-studded parties; but it is now becoming a destination for unwinding and reconnecting, for discovering the region’s natural beauty and magical villages. The 38 guestrooms, including 10 suites, combine comfort and sophistication. Many of the generously sized retreats are equipped with private areas for rest, work, and wellbeing. Standout rooms include the Privilege Terrace, a luxurious space with a terrace, solarium, and outdoor shower with views of the sea, and the Suite Pool, which is equipped with a private plunge pool.
Cloister Restaurant Celebrating Local Ingredients
At the center of Finca Victoria are common areas that unfold around the home’s original cloister. The cloister itself has been transformed into the restaurant Al Kostat del Mar, while a second dining outlet, a wellness space, and a guest-only pool area can be found nearby. Led by Michelin-starred chef Jordi Vilà, Al Kostat del Mar offers a fine-dining experience based on Catalan cuisine, celebrating local ingredients and open-fire cooking. Guests can enjoy oysters with Bloody Marys or freshly made pastas at any time of day at Finca Kitchen and Bar.
Spa Lounge and Personal Coolers by the Pool
Those seeking more intimate experiences can unwind at the pool, where the home’s original pool is surrounded by bespoke sun loungers, personal coolers, and shaded areas with spacious sofas. The nearby wellness area, with a sauna, Jacuzzi, gym, and treatment rooms, offers a peaceful escape for renewal and restoration. Guests will discover La Caseta del Mar, an exclusive beach club serving chilled champagne and fresh oysters with plenty of fresh towels, umbrellas, and sunbeds.
Timeless Mediterranean Retreat Where Past Meets Present
The Serra brothers emphasize their family roots placed great importance on hospitality—from long conversations around a table that stretched for hours to unique experiences around the world. Following this ethos, at Finca Victoria, guests encounter more than a hotel. They are welcomed into a timeless Mediterranean retreat, where past and present intertwine, and every stay feels like coming home.
