The Caleta Hotel, Gibraltar

The award winning Caleta Hotel is Gibraltar’s only ‘beach hotel’. Located on Catalan Bay, a peaceful fishing village adjacent to the sandy Catalan Beach, the Caleta Hotel enjoys an enviable position on a rocky promontory with uninterrupted, stunning views of the Mediterranean. On clear days, you can easily see across the Straits of Gibraltar to neighbouring Spain & Morocco giving you a visual spectacle of the meeting of the three countries. Catalan Beach is very popular amongst the locals and they are often to be seen taking advantage of the good weather and swimming in the warm waters of the Mediterranean, sailing, jet-skiing and parasailing well into the ‘winter months’.

The Caleta hotel offers a high level of accommodation, restaurant and leisure facilities and is perfect for a holiday away from it all. The hotel offers deluxe seaview double/twin rooms, junior suites, one or two bedroom, self-catering luxury apartments with separate living areas, balconies and kitchenettes and the Bridal Suite which features a canopy bed, living area and two balconies. All rooms enjoy the luxury of a balcony where you can sit out to have breakfast, perhaps evening cocktails or simply to luxuriate in the amazing view as the sky turns a rosy pink hue and the sun sinks lazily into the glittering ocean.

Hotel leisure facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, a full health & leisure centre offering beauty treatments and state of the art gymnasium. The award winning ‘Nuno’s’ restaurant offers fine Italian & Mediterranean cuisine and is open for lunch and dinner. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor dining with superb views over the ocean and is perfect for a romantic, candlelit rendez-vous for two. The Catalan Lounge Bar offers a traditional English afternoon tea as well as cocktails and bar snacks throughout the day and evening.

The hotel has recently introduced a kids’ crèche facility on site manned by two fully qualified nursery teachers and is open from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday excluding Bank Holidays. This facility is available for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and is free of charge to hotel guests so affords an ideal opportunity for parents to relax by the pool or enjoy a spa treatment knowing their children are well looked after.

The hotel also boasts two Ocean View terraces which are perfect for an al-fresco wedding ceremony and/or reception. The hotel is licensed for civil marriages to take place at the hotel.
