Restaurant Almarí

Restaurant Almarí is a dining venue at Hotel Cala del Pi on Av. del Cavall Bernat in Platja d’Aro, overlooking the Mediterranean on the Costa Brava. Its cooking is rooted in the Empordà, drawing on the area’s sea, gardens and vineyards while giving traditional Ampurdanese recipes a contemporary interpretation.

The approach is Mediterranean, seasonal and closely connected to local produce. Rather than focusing on a fixed style of international cuisine, the kitchen presents author-led cooking shaped by the character of the region. The result is a setting for guests interested in refined interpretations of Catalan and Empordà traditions, with the ingredients and landscape of Girona providing the central reference.

Almarí combines an interior dining room with a bright terrace facing the sea. The indoor space has a warm, elegant atmosphere, while the terrace creates a more open setting for meals and extended sobremesas beside the water. Together, the two areas give the restaurant a calm, polished character suited to a leisurely dining experience.

The restaurant forms part of an adults-only hotel, making it appropriate for adult diners looking for a composed meal in a coastal setting. A request for suitable attire is part of the venue’s dining policy, reinforcing the restaurant’s refined tone without taking away from its connection to the surrounding landscape.

Restaurant Almarí suits occasions centred on the food, the setting and the pace of the meal. It can appeal to diners seeking seasonal Mediterranean cuisine, to visitors exploring the culinary identity of the Empordà, and to those who prefer a restaurant with both an elegant interior and a sea-facing outdoor area. Reservations are available through the venue, and the address places it within the Cala del Pi complex in Platja d’Aro.
