You can cover the distance from Barcelona to Lloret de Mar by train for around 2h 10m and pay about EUR11.85. The road by taxi or transfer booked in advance will take one hour on average yet it will cost you over EUR158. Please remember that Lloret de Mar resort is located 91 kilometer from Barcelona airport and 75 kilometers far from the city itself.
A bus trip is a good idea, and the bus heads off right from the airport. Anyway please note that the schedule has not any night bus routes. Trains don’t go in the nights, too, so if you go by train you will need to change trains on the way. Thus this option will hardly fit families with children and elderly people. Moreover, speeding trains don’t head off from the airport; you need to get to them first.
