Many sites of historic and architectural interest
Places to visit:
Banyeres: Numerous historic sites in the area, such as the citadel at Calafell, the iron-age burial ground at Can Canyis or the Iberian village site dating back to the 3rd century BC (a designated site of National Cultural Importance).
Tarragona: Founded by the Romans, Tarragona's ancient walls are an emblem of historic Mediterranean culture. The Roman ruins are a reflection of the importance of the city since time immemorial; the amphitheatre, the Roman circus, and the most beautiful sights of a city that embraces the sea.
Port Aventura: Enjoy the excitement of five different "worlds": Mediterranean, Polynesia, China, Mexico and the Wild West.
Barcelona: People write whole books about what to see in Barcelona. We only have room to say that there's far too much to do justice to in one visit.

People will come to L'Hort de L'Avia for all sorts of different reasons, not least the excellent value-for-money. For us, it has the wonderful benefit of being so close to the coast and beaches without being stuck amongst the crowds.Customer Feedback:
"I've just spent a few days at L'Hort de l'Avia and I can't remember the last time I visited a house like this (it feels like a house and not a hotel). There seem to be no limits to the joy of tranquillity, silence, the light and the sun, the gardens and terraces, the antique furniture, the rich yet natural food, the courteous attention……I slept like few times before! The atmosphere is special, almost magical. You get the feeling of having passed through a time warp into an age without rush or stress that would be impossible today. Although I made some trips around and about, the greater part of the time was spent around the house. Really great!!" A.
"I've just spent a couple of weeks with my partner. We loved the place and we loved the hotel. We recommend it, it's worth it (and you eat very well!)." J.
" We have recently returned from our stay at the L'Hort de L'Avia hotel. We enjoyed our stay very much, the hotel is lovely, the room was clean and comfortable and the host (Paul) could not have been more helpful." C. & S. J.
"Have just returned from a lovely week at the above, which you booked for us. 4* recommended, especially if you want to chill out, but want the coast and interesting places to visit near at hand." J.C.
