The house, location and service were excellent. We would book this house again for sure when we return to Costa Brava. We were a family of 4 (2 - 7 year old girls) and stayed for 5 nights in July. We are also quite particular and only book places that have very high reviews. I can see why this place has consistently received top reviews.
The house is large and over 2 floors. The girls each took a room and used the 4th bedroom to play with their dolls. The house is large enough for 2 families for sure. The kitchen is a good size and was very well equipped. We cooked most meals while in Costa Brava and felt that the kitchen had everything. The living room is comfortable with 2 large sofas and a dining room table. There are several decks and a large garage that could fit two cars. The house has amazing views (I think better than the pictures) and there is also a grill on one of the terraces in the back. There is an large table and chairs on the mail deck with excellent views also. The house is also at the end of the street in a very quiet area. There were plenty of towels and blankets and the house had everything you needed. (normally, there are minor things missing from houses but this house had everything - even a toaster).
The host was incredible and answered any question right away.
The location was one of the best I have seen in Costa Brava. (And we have been many times) You need a car to get to the town but you can walk to local beaches that are amazing. (they are not traditional sand beaches but amazing rock formations and crystal clear water) There are also expansive trails that hug the outstanding coastline that seem to extent for miles. Access to these trails and the beach area of Aigua Xelida are all accessible from right outside the front door. Aigua Xelida is incredible with crystal clear water. If you walk up the stairs you will find the expansive trails that extend for miles along the coast. (I walked one trail with my 7 year old daughter for about 45 minutes). For all trails and the beach, there are many stairs to climb but they were not an issue even for our 7 year olds.
An absolute great stay and I would highly recommend this place.
