I just came back from a wonderful vacation in Cadaques, and Mariano's place made all the difference. It is in an excellent location, up a set of stairs from the beach and in the old part of the town below the church. It is a spacious, comfortable, and stylish space with vaulted ceilings to give it character. It is on the ground floor; consequently, it is noisy from the street and passers-by and dark (because you must keep curtains drawn). However, it is very well-lighted (I read) and it was welcoming to come back to a cool home after a hot day out at the beach. It is very well-stocked in the kitchen, bathroom, and with beach amenities. The CD music selection is excellent and varied for any mood. The helpful local tips were very useful, especially for where to park for free. Finally, Mariano is very responsive, and it was a pleasure to stay at this place. I highly recommend.
