We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Planamar for the second time. The location is fantastic, right by the beach with beautiful sea views and easy access to the promenade.
Platja d’Aro is such a lovely and charming city with a great atmosphere, nice restaurants, and cozy streets to explore. The hotel is relaxed and the staff is welcoming and sweet. A special thank you for being so kind to our dog — it meant a lot to us and made the stay even better.
Great breakfast and the setting by the sea made the stay extra special.

Amazing location right on the beach. It's a bit far from a major city to be without a vehicle so recommend a car rental if staying in this area. Older building but nicely kept. The food was good but selection was limited. Staff were lovely and accommodating.

We had four nights here and were treated exceptionally well from start to finish. The hotel is a bit older with some minor hiccups and smaller rooms, but the location and hospitality of the staff far exceeded our expectations. If we could give more stars than 5 for the staff, we would. Everyone - from front desk, restaurant and housekeeping were very kind and welcoming. Fantastic location, mere metres from the beach. Would recommend and would stay here again.

Beach front with balconies and sea views even from the rooms on the side. Beautiful hotel. Very nice and modern room and bathroom. Parking is a bit of an issue. They have parking close by for smaller cars, but larger cars have to park a bit away in the city center. But overall very nice hotel close to many restaurants.

Overall property was good but gym was closed at 8pm and I think gym supposed to be open for 24 hours for convenience. Outside restaurant was closed at 11pm. Outside patio should be open at least till 1am because it's nice to sit outside and drink alcohol or socialize.

I made my checkin at 1:00 am and they gave me a room, as soon I woke up they made me move out from the room stating that I should be downgraded.
No superior room, no sea view. Rude receptionist

Check in was hard work as only one person the desk so it took over 30 minutes. Also, there was a small drop off area and involved blocking two cars in.
Receptionist was very friendly and helpful however.
One thing which I did find odd was that the hotel states it has parking which it doesn't..... its 300m away and is an additional cost.
A fantastic view of the beach on the roof and nice pool.

Séjour agréable et propre, toujours une bonne odeur !
Plage à proximité ça c'est un très point positif et le centre ville tout à côté.
Par contre pour sortir le soir en boîte de nuit ce n'est pas ouvert tous les jours mais bon ce n'est pas encore la période estivale.
