Hotel Peralada.

Set against the rolling landscape of the Empordà region, Hotel Peralada is a dedicated retreat for those who appreciate the intersection of viticulture and leisure. The 64-room property, redesigned by Sandra Tarruella, trades typical resort flash for an earthy, intimate aesthetic that feels connected to the surrounding vineyards. While the 18-hole golf course and adjacent casino provide traditional entertainment, the hotel’s most distinct feature is its Wine Spa. Here, the concept of vinotherapy is literal, with treatments utilizing grape extracts in a sanctuary that includes a hammam and sauna. Dining centers on L'Olivera, which pairs regional Catalan specialties with labels from the nearby Peralada Cellars. It is a self-contained world where the rhythm of the day is dictated by tee times, cellar tours, and sunset views over the Pyrenees.
