Travel Note

Passport Requirement

As you prepare for our unforgettable celebration in Spain, we want to ensure your travel arrangements go smoothly. Please note that all guests traveling to Spain will require a valid passport. Please remember!!!! Your passport must be valid until three months after the planned date of departure from the Schengen territory (most likely the date you leave Europe), and must have been issued during the ten years immediately before the date of entry. If you do not currently own a passport, we kindly ask that you apply for one as soon as possible to avoid any last-minute complications.

Flight

Barcelona (BCN)

We recommend flying into the Barcelona airport (BCN). There are many international flights available from the US. In general, try to book your flight as early as possible as prices typically rise as you get within six months of your travel date. Two websites we recommend looking at to compare airlines and prices are: https://www.google.com/travel/flights https://www.skyscanner.com/

Hotel

Hotel Recommendations

As room blocks are not common in Spain, we have done research on several hotels in the Sitges area that are all walking distance from the welcome reception and the shuttle pickup spot. We recommended staying near Sitges if you do not plan to rent a car, as it is easily accessible by public transportation and near where the shuttles to events will pick up and drop off. There are many other options in the area, but our recommendations include: Hotel Calipolis (4*) - https://www.hotelcalipolis.com/ Hotel Medium Sitges (3*) - https://www.mediumhoteles.com/hotel-medium-sitges-park/ Divino Hotel (3*) - https://divinohotel.es/ Hotel El Xalet (2*) - https://www.elxalet.com/

For the Barbecue, they will pick guests up at Passeig de Vilanova, 8, 08870 Sitges, Barcelona, Spain (in front of the hairdresser salon) at 2pm to take them to the mansion*, and return from the mansion to that same point in Sitges at 6pm. For the wedding day, the shuttle will pick guests up at Passeig de Vilanova, 8, 08870 Sitges, Barcelona, Spain (in front of the hairdresser salon) at 4pm, and make two return trips from the wedding venue at 10pm and 12am. Please note that the second shuttle will also include a stop at Masia Cal Simo for the wedding party. *Please note that there will be a five minute walk from the bus drop off point at the mansion to the main building.

Rental Car

Rental Cars

There are a wide variety of rental car companies in Barcelona, with incredibly affordable prices. Just be sure to indicate that you want a car with an automatic transmission, as many Europeans typically drive manual cars. While we have previously chosen to work with Kayak, you can also consider getting quotes from: Expedia Priceline Hertz and many more.
