Tamariu
Luxury real estate in Tamariu, Costa Brava
Tamariu is the smallest and most intimate of Palafrugell’s three coves: a tranquil, pine-fringed village with a crescent of sand, prized for privacy and exclusivity. Scarcity of homes keeps it among the most coveted addresses on the Costa Brava.
Where Llafranc and Calella have promenades and bustle, Tamariu keeps its calm — a handful of seafront restaurants, fishing boats on the sand, and villas tucked into the pines above the bay. It is the cove for those who want seclusion and quiet rather than scene.
The housing is overwhelmingly villas, from traditional whitewashed homes to renovated and contemporary properties with panoramic views over the bay towards Aiguablava. New supply is rare and tightly held; recent semi-detached new-builds have traded at around €2.2–2.6 million, a measure of the premium the cove commands.
For buyers, Tamariu offers the Costa Brava at its most serene — a privacy-led retreat where a sea-view villa is both a sanctuary and, given the scarcity, a sound long-term hold.
