Costa Brava Holidays 2026: Tourist Tax for Holiday Homes and Vacation Rentals

Anyone planning a holiday on the Costa Brava will soon come across the question of the tourist tax in Catalonia. This tax applies to overnight stays in hotels, holiday apartments, holiday villas, holiday homes, hostels, and campsites, and is charged per person and per night. Unlike Barcelona, tourist tax rates in Costa Brava resorts such as Blanes, Lloret de Mar, L’Escala, L’Estartit, Empuriabrava, Roses, Llançà, Llafranc, and Calella de Palafrugell remain moderate and affordable.
