Serviced Apartments in Vilanova i la Geltrú

Only about a 45 minute drive from the famous Spanish city of Barcelona, Vilanova i la Geltrú is a coastal city of about 66,000 people on the north-eastern coast of Spain. This part of the country is home to many beach resorts and charming seaside cities which have become more famous than Vilanova i la Geltrú, but this city still has plenty to offer visitors. Indeed, many of the holiday lettings in Vilanova i la Geltrú are booked by those wishing to avoid the nearby holiday resort of Sitges, while still enjoying the sun, sea and sand surroundings.

Originally a small fishing port, the city has grown to become one of importance in the region's economy. Textile, paper, iron and agriculture industries are all important to the region, but tourism is becoming more and more prominent. There is an excellent selection of serviced apartments in Vilanova i la Geltrú to choose from, giving wonderful access to the beautiful beach with its golden sands and crystal blue sea.

Being in the heart of the Catalan region of Spain, there is plenty of historical culture and heritage to enjoy in the city's museum. The museum documents the area’s history with Roman, Moorish and prehistoric antiquities on display. There are also two or three other museums to enjoy; these bizarrely include a museum dedicated to the history of American Indians. Either way, all of the museums are found quite centrally and is near to most apartment rentals in Vilanova i la Geltrú.

As with many regions of Spain, Catalonia has its own take on cuisine and there are many fantastic restaurants in the city to enjoy. Being a coastal city, seafood is especially good here and many of the restaurants and tavernas are well known for their high quality seafood dishes. If you're popping out for a bite to eat from your Vilanova i la Geltrú self-catered apartment or serviced accommodation, be sure to try the local delicacy of Xató, a winter salad and rich sauce made from fish, olive oil, garlic and almonds. The dish is so good, there is even an annual festival dedicated to it!

There are a number of other festivals to enjoy in the city, with the Festa Major in August, and Carnaval in February being two of the most famous. The city also has the Vilanova International World Music Festival every July. Be sure to check if any of the numerous festivals are on when you book your holiday rental in Vilanova i la Geltrú.
