First of all, the prestige of the resort and its place in the world "listing". The rest comes from little things: the convenience of transport infrastructure, the proximity of large cities, etc. and. etc.

Costa Brava is the oldest resort in Spain, its development began in the first place - because there were French tourists nearby. Unfortunately, as we were able to see, the prestige of the resort does not correspond well to its condition: there are many old hotels built back to back, so that you can look into the windows. Beaches not ideal in terms of cleanliness. But there is a developed infrastructure, because. from Barcelona to the Costa del Maresme, and then to Brava, there are good railway and buses (from Calla to Barca - an hour and a half by train, which runs every hour, if not more often). In terms of prices, of course, Brava will be the cheapest on your list.

Costa Dorada is a newer resort. There are more modern hotels, many of which even at 3-4 * have a large territory. + Near the amusement park Port Aventura (who has children, this is important). But it takes longer to get to Barcelona, from Salou - almost 2 hours by train. An additional negative is that Salou has an oil refinery, which, as the guide told us, led to the highest level of allergies in Spain.
Unlike Brava and Dorada, which are located in the north of Spain, in Catalonia, Costa del Sol is a resort in southern Spain, in the province of Andalusia. Tourism in this part of the country started the latest. it is traditionally the poorest part of Spain. But the resorts there are the newest and most modern in terms of infrastructure, which means they are the most expensive. The climate is hotter, and the water is a little colder than in the North, because. near the Atlantic Ocean.

In general, you have to make a choice based on your preferences and capabilities. Need to be close to Barcelona (amazing city, I love it) and don't mind a few inconveniences - you're in Brava or Maresme. You need fun, PortAventura and comfort - in Dorada. If you are drawn to the south of Spain, where there is Moorish architecture, ancient cathedrals, real bullfighting (in Barcelona, too, by the way), where Madrid is closer - you are on del Sol.

I completely agree. And the train from Barca to the north coast runs along the entire coast of the Costa Brava. Along the coastline. Only Lloret de Mar misses it, it is 15 minutes after the final. A very cool town.

Yes, Lloret is cool - there are a lot of discos, it may seem to someone that it is a bit noisy there. You have to get to the train station by bus - and back, too. And the bus stops running early - at 8 o'clock (or at 9?), So either you will need to take a taxi, or not stay late in Barca.

By the way, the train to Barca and back from Calella last year cost 6 euros (round trip ticket, return time - any within a day), from Lloret (to the station that is closer to it) - 8 euros.

Costa Brava - famous for its proximity to Barcelona and France, but the beaches and service in some hotels leave much to be desired

Costa del Sol - this Andalusia - proximity to Africa, a completely different culture - you can see the imprint of Africa - the hotel is cheaper there and there is not much to see - only Seville, Granada, Malaga, and a couple of other towns, as well as the Danyana National Park

in my opinion, Costa Dorada is the best option out of 3: not deprived of proximity to Barcelona and France, the beach is just a miracle - sand, clear water, smooth ocean bottom, - proximity to Port Aventura - an amusement park, 2nd in Europe after Disneyland in France,
