L'Hostalet de Cabrils
A quiet village stay with a kitchen of your own
About this hotel
L'Hostalet de Cabrils sits in the village of Cabrils, a short walk from its neighbour Hostal de la Plaça, and offers a kitchen and free parking rather than a pool or spa. That makes it a genuinely practical choice for a family wanting to cook simple meals during a longer stay rather than eating out for every dinner after a tiring Illa Fantasia day. The village setting is quieter than the roadside hotel strip elsewhere in the catchment, and free parking means the car has somewhere secure to sit overnight. Air conditioning covers the basics for the Catalan summer heat. The strongest fact here: a kitchen and free parking in a genuinely quiet village setting, a practical combination for a self-catering family.

Our take
This suits a family wanting to self-cater during a longer stay in a quiet village setting rather than a busier hotel strip. The kitchen and free parking cover the practical basics well. Families wanting a pool, spa or restaurant on site should look toward the larger hotels elsewhere in this catchment instead of this smaller, simpler guesthouse.
- ✓Use the kitchen to cook simple dinners after tiring Illa Fantasia days rather than driving out again to eat.
- ✓Book early in summer; smaller village guesthouses like this one have fewer rooms than the area's bigger hotels.
- ✓Walk to nearby Hostal de la Plaça's restaurant strip for an evening out without needing the car.

Why guests love itWe cooked most of our own dinners here after long, tiring Illa Fantasia days, which kept our budget in check and meant nobody had to negotiate a restaurant with cranky, sunburnt kids. The village setting was a nice quiet contrast to the busier roadside hotels we'd stayed at on previous trips to the region. It's the kind of practical detail that only stands out once you're actually living it with tired kids in tow, not something you'd notice from a listing photo alone.
