Romantic Villa mit large Pool area and Sea View - exclusive, Playa D'Aro/Palamos

This is a review of two halves although it is important to state that the owner André and his property manager Raymond worked hard to rectify the appliance issues we faced. Both were always prompt, helpful and polite and keen to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

We were a group of 14 (8 adults and 6 children) and the main logistical problem is that the property is simply not large enough to comfortably house such a large party.

Suite 1 is in actual fact an open mezzanine with a double bed and a sofa bed. The mezzanine is accessed by a narrow spiral staircase and is directly above the main living quarters affording no privacy whatsoever to the occupants who were also subject to any noise from downstairs.

Bedrooms 2 and 3 were windowless rooms both interconnected by doors to bedroom 4. Rooms 2 & 3 were understandably hot and airless although Raymond's acquisition of fans did help a little bit.

The separate cottage is built around a tree which whilst an interesting feature made the floor of the whole room very uneven. The surrounding balcony was rickety and unsafe especially for children.

Aside from the logistics, the other key issues we faced was the fact that on arrival both the dishwasher and washing machine were broken. We were only informed of this once we arrived and no steps to rectify these problems had been undertaken prior to our arrival. While both appliances were fixed, it took a week and half to mend the dishwasher which meant that a considerable amount of our holiday was spent washing up dishes. We also lost hot water for 24 hours due to, again a known issue with the boiler. As we noted, André and Raymond both tried hard to correct these issues once we had arrived.

On the positive side, the pool area was amazing for children and we spent many hours playing in the pool. It would have been even better, had the pool been cleaned regularly as advertised - twice a week instead of once a week, especially after a large storm left lots of debris in the pool that we spent ages cleaning.

The games room was good and well maintained and we thoroughly enjoyed making our own pizzas in the outdoor pizza oven.

Overall, we did enjoy our time at the house but we would recommend that it is probably far more suited to a smaller party.

What you see is what you get!!! It has been a long time, since we have met a villa like this one. Pool area is very nice, especially during night with the multi-color lighting. Great for the kids. A lot of things to play with. The house is very close to nice beaches and the centre of Sant Antoni and Playa D'Aro. The house is very well furnished and decorated. Kitchen well equipped and new. we found the house very well organized and clean..

Très belle et spacieuse maison.

Nous étions 6 adultes et 6 enfants et n avions pas l impression d être à l étroit.

La maison dispose d un grand jardin, une belle piscine et une terrasse ombragée. Nous vivions à l exterieur quasiment toute la journée mais la maison dispose de une grande pièce de vie pouvant accueillir tout le monde.

Mas Palli I est accessible à pied même avec des petits, certes le chemin est vallonné mais vous trouverez dans le book disponible dans la maison une carte indiquant le chemin idéal.

Il y a une plage avec un peu de sable et de quoi faire du snorkling à 2 km.

A 5 min de voiture vous trouverez de belles plages, grandes surfaces et grossiste vin et liqueur.

Pour revenir la maison, les photos correspondent à la réalité et les chambres sont spacieuses et avec rangements. Le sous sol est indépendant du reste de la maison ce qui peut être un plus pour les familles avec adolescents !

Et cerise sur le gâteau, le propriétaire est très disponible et réactif en cas de pb.

En résumé : réservez vous ne serrez pas déçus

Magnifique maison comme sur les photos

Wirklich ein tolles Ferienhaus, unbedingt zu empfehlen!

Sehr schöne Wohngegend, der Pool mit dem Wasserfall und dem Licht ist wirklich toll und gut gepflegt und das Haus sehr schön. Das Durchgangszimmer haben wir problemlos genutzt (Eltern und Kind). Der Verwalter vor Ort war immer ansprechbar und hat bei Problemen sehr schnell und nett geholfen, und auch der Vermieter war jederzeit per mail ansprechbar.

Bei der Küchenausstattung hat uns ein Toaster und ein Mixer gefehlt:-).

Das Poolhaus ist sehr schön, hat allerdings ziemlich stark nach irgendwas gerochen (Farbe?).

Insgesamt alles so, wie in der Beschreibung angegeben.
