The seaside idyll of Sitges, just down the coast from Barcelona, is the setting for the ME Sitges Terramar, a stylish and contemporary resort-style hotel by the Mallorca-based Meliá group. Its location, right across the road from Terramar Beach, is impossible to beat, and the building’s ziggurat-like terraced construction affords plentiful sun and sea views to as many rooms and suites as possible. Its location, at the end of the Passeig Maritim, makes it a touch more tranquil than you might imagine, contributing to the self-contained resort vibe; there’s a Mediterranean restaurant, an oyster bar, and a poolside option as well.
