We had an absolutely wonderful time at Dan's villa in El Port de la Selva. We can not wait to return and are completely envious of his Villa! Here are a few things renters should know:

1. Location - The Villa is high on the hillside close to El Port de la Selva--a beautiful, small fishing village in Northeastern Spain. If you desire an absolutely amazing view, peace and quiet, safety, and a friendly town with amazing environs, this is the place for you. You are only a 5 minute walk to a extremely quiet beach and sit on the edge of Cap de Creus National Park. Surrounding El Port de la Selva are the beautiful villages of Cadaques, Roses, and Girona. Within an hour is the French border with the beautiful town of Collioure. You won't be disappointed in the location.

2. Information at the Villa - Dan (and his mother Anna) did a phenomenal job ensuring there was ample information about the area (restaurants, day trips, activities, etc.) with very convenient maps. Anna was there to greet us when we arrived and when we checked out. She could not have been more friendly and helpful!

3. The Villa - First, you will be hard-pressed to find a nicer villa in Spain or anywhere for that matter. It's absolutely beautiful, clean and organized. During this stay, there were 2 couples-- one couple stayed upstairs and another down. It was almost as if we had two separate, private villas. The kitchen was well-equipped with an induction stove, modern oven/refrigerator and dish washer. We cooked multiple meals, eating out on the terrace for each of our meals. There was a great laundry room with washer/dryer and iron. On our trip we had a few hot days and a few cool ones. On the hot days, we spent time at the pool and found the pool very refreshing. On the cooler days, we wrapped up in a blanket, sitting on the balcony's edge overlooking the sea.

Conclusion - You can't go wrong with this Villa and with Dan and his family. We couldn't have been happier with our experience!
