Ensure that your agent is a registered business with the Generalitat and also town hall. there are a large number of unregistered people setting themselves up as agents. They may be fine but the town hall, local and national government now requires that agencies should be registered, pay a licence fee and also confirm to a code of ethics and procedures1
Remember you want to ensure that the agent involved is not just a scam and that what they advertise will be there when you turn up. Over the last 3 years we have had a number of Dutch and American people turning up for apartment and villa rental for holiday lets only to find that their accommodation and agent didn’t exist!! and then we have had to find them hotel or apartment accommodation to save their holiday.
An expensive holiday for them which with a few precautions could have been avoided.
Ask you agent to tell you about their registration and their id; check they exist by phoning them, check them on google, check with the tourist office or the local trade association – the GREMI – to see that they are bona fide.
Licences are issued and cost between euros1000 and 4000 depending on the number of properties and also the fulfilment of registratio. if your agent can’t prove they are registered then….. they probably aren’t and may be a disaster waiting to happen for you.
The Hotel Liberty and www.rentaroundsitges.com and www.sitgesproperty.com are fully registered with both the town council and the Barcelona regional governments.

Ask about airport pickups also held at last years prices even with the usual increase in the road tolls.

The perfect combination of city and beach resort for a holiday. See the sites and history of the fascinating Barcelona, one of the most vibrant and live cities in Europe. Combine it with the very laid back attitude of Sitges, only 36kms from Barcelona. Famous for its night-life, liberal attitudes, artistic community and 17 beaches!

Fantastic Wedding

Hi guys,
Thanks for one of the best planned and executed and enjoyable fun weddings that we have EVER attended. Attention to detail was magnificent!!! Food exceptional! Wines recommended were perfect. Your help and guidance invaluable – we could not have done it without you!!! Expect many more bookings for your services when the word gets out and especially after all the room changes that we inflicted on you and which you coped with so magnificently. We were quite a handful I know.

Wow – didn’t realise that there were so many freaky and fun-loving people around. We have been for caranaval and for Fiesta Major and Fiesta Minor but the Zombie Walk as a part of the Sitges Film Festival was a fantastic experience. And well done the Liberty for the guidance and make-up tips.

Hi Guys,
Well the above says it all. Keep on struting your stuff! You certainly run a very welcoming and efficient hotel and bar. Recommendations for beaches and bars and restaurants were spot on and accurate even down to the pricing. And thanks for the tip about gratuities!
Best wines we have tasted in a long time in a bar, especially the red from the Australian lady!! We will look out for it in Harvey Nick’s and save some for a rainy day – aren’t they all in England at present! and already missing the sun and the warmth of your place.
