Plan your trip to Sitges for 2010 – Early!

Sitges

We’ve been seeing a large increase in requests coming into our accommodation partners on the guide this past month. It appears most of you want to ensure you get the apartments and hotels with the best vies and the best locations in Sitges!

Sitges

And the best way of securing those views and locations is by booking early. Sitges gets extremely busy during the Summer months and while there is never a shortage of accommodation, it is often difficult to get that beachfront apartment or hotel room with a balcony1

Sitges

So plan and book your trip early. You can book your apartment here on Gay Sitges Guide or book your hotel here!
