Back to the Future: The Hotel Terramar




Under construction….

I remember the first time I walked into the lobby of the Hotel Terramar. I was transported back through time to the mid-twentieth century. It was amazing to see such a well-executed “retro” interior, authentic down to the tiles. But as I sat and took it all in, I realized the interior was created at that time and never renovated up until 2016! At the time there were 209 rooms.

Over the years I’ve eaten in the restaurants and I’ve met with friends and shared many-a-café con leche. L'Arrosseria del Terramar specialized in rice dishes, while the Restaurante Yuca offered Mediterranean cuisine.

Opened in 1933, 


Shortly after the outbreak of the civil war, the Hotel Terramar Palace was requisitioned in August 1936 and converted into a blood hospital (l'Hospital de Sang de Terramar) to accommodate the wounded.
