Palmera, Tossa De Mar Overview
Palmera is a family-friendly, pet-friendly stay in Tossa de Mar, Spain, set on Calle Aries, 162. It’s the kind of place that suits travelers who want an easy rhythm: swim, eat out, then come back to a quieter base. Guests commonly mention the practical comfort of having non-smoking rooms and free wired internet, plus the reassurance that guest rooms are disinfected between stays.
The outdoor setup is a highlight for many visitors. There’s a swimming pool for downtime between beach trips, and BBQ facilities that make evenings feel more like a home routine than a strict hotel schedule. If you’re driving, the free parking is a real advantage in this area, and the hotel also notes offsite parking with discounted rates when needed.

Reviewers who travel with children tend to appreciate the relaxed atmosphere and the straightforward logistics, while pet owners value that pets are allowed. Couples and solo explorers often choose Palmera for the balance of outdoor space, a calm non-smoking environment, and a base that works well for road-trip days along the Costa Brava.
