Part of the Finca Victoria Hotel & Spa. From the hotel reception you are accompanied to the restaurant, which is accessed via the terrace overlooking the swimming pool.

€€€Seafood
A restaurant right on the beach? Originally a simple fishermen's hut, this restaurant is practically on the sand and has the feel of a traditional beach bar, with fantastic views of the sea and sunbathers enjoying the sun. The menu offers a fine selection of Catalan seafood dishes, rice dishes for two and wild fish by weight, which are usually grilled over holm oak wood. In season, given the large number of visitors due to its exceptional location, we recommend you book in advance.

Vicus in Regencós offers modern cuisine centered around sharing menus. Reviews highlight high food quality, creativity, and professional service.

Value perceptions vary; while many appreciate the experience, others cite high prices, such as bread costs, and occasional issues with salty dishes or pacing.
