This later photograph of the hotel Costa Encantada on the left was sent to me by
Rafel Roig de Llobet
Mr Tony Porter holidayed there in the 1950s with his parents Henry & Dorothy Porter & brother.
They were great friends with the owners at the time Tony believes the names were Antonio Drets who had four daughters, one of whom was called 'Mercedes' and the youngest 'Anna Maria' Marie?

Hotel La Palma/Hotel Miramar
Rosamar Hotel
Marta Suarez shares this with us:
Hoy pase un dia estupendo ,en LLoret paseando con mi Padre el tiene 90 años y una memoria estupenda.
en Lloret existia un bar llamado Mai Tanquis alli se encontraban los marineros y pescadores ,en ese bar empezaron a trabajar unos Hermanos ,Mallorquines y cuando ganaron lo suficiente Alquilaron una Pension que le Nombraron Rosamar.
y de alli adelante empezo a funcionar con Turismo ....
mi Padre me hizo reir mucho hoy contandome anecdotas ,de antes al principio a la gente le daba miedo alquilar habitaciones a gente que hablase una lengua extranjera . desconocian que el futuro de lloret estaba ahí vivir del Turismo estamos hablando de hace muchos años .
