We had a lovely stay in Pals at Carme's lovely apartment. The place was very well appointed, a tasteful mix of modern furniture and fixtures in an old beautifully renovated building. The outside space was spacious and restful with a nice pool, though quite chilly in October! Communication was excellent, our late arrival caused no issues and Carmen was good enough to keep us up to speed with a general strike which had been called while we were there (thats Catalonia for you!).
Pals itself is a pretty medieval village with lots of restaraunt choices though the season is winding down in mid October. The accommodation is an easy walk from everywhere in the village, and an easy drive to lots of coastal villages and resorts, we prefered the small beaches on the rockier coastline near Begur and Calella.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this as a great location in a nice area.
