costa brava hotel dilemma

Hi all looking at all inclusive accom for costa brava (flying into girona). I have found a price of around £250 for San Eloy - Tossa de Mar good reviews and a price of £289 for Costa Encandata - Lloret de Mar - also very good reviews. Shuttle bus from girona through Travel Republic the same price.

Any guidance on which hotel/resort we should go for would be great

myself and hubby travelling 9-13th June (chill out break no kids). I am leaning towards San eloy as I think Tossa looks a bit more Spanishy than Lloret (fenals)

Thanks!

    when we went to santa susanna (about 9 years ago, beg July) it was full of germans, everything was german menus, entertainment, did have english but seemed to be mostly geared towards them, may have changed by now.

    I stayed in the Encantada in 2000, but was with a group of 10 18yr olds celebrating A Levels!!!

    It was very touristy area, lots of bars, nice hotel but not Spanishy.

    Beach was nice, and there is a waterpark nearby.

  • thanks everyone we stayed at Calella last year - Amaika and fancied a change. I did stay at Fenals many years ago about 23 but don't recall too much of that holiday! I figured if Tossa was good enough for Kylie to visit her boyfriends family it might be a nice place !!!
