The highlight of this property is definitely the beautiful view overlooking Lloret de Mar and a very nice pool. Laura and Niko were very accessible and easy to work with. Here are some take-aways:
This property is perfect for a relaxed and quiet vacation. My husband enjoyed running on the dirt road that began beside the property.
Our family sleeps in a/c at home, so it was a bit of an adjustment to sleep without it and we ended up buying a fan on our second night. Not a huge deal, however, something to consider if you are uncomfortable in heat.
We loved the openness of the common areas to the outside. We would open all the large sliding doors and enjoy the view and breeze. Because this is a wooded area and does open to enjoy the outside, do expect the occasional insect. We dealt with some flies, bees, ants and mosquitos, but it wasn’t bad enough to be a major problem and you can mitigate this by not keeping the sliding doors open.
The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The downstairs shower is nice, but very small. If you need more room to shower, just use the upstairs.
The kitchen was well supplied. The clothes washer came in handy and we used the drying rack to dry clothes.
We wished we would have used Esclat (grocery) early in our stay. It was much better than Aldi, which we didn’t love. They have fresh bread and a much much better selection.
The botanical gardens and beaches were a highlight of our stay. Beautiful! We especially enjoyed our day trip to Girona. If you go, be sure to try La Fabrica for breakfast or lunch.
Our girls (13 and 16) enjoyed shopping in Lloret de Mar. Fun shops with reasonable prices.
Don’t let anything visible in your car when you park. We learned the hard way and had our window broken and an empty beach bag stolen. Nothing of value taken, however, it was a huge hassle to exchange the car back in Barcelona. We always felt safe on our vacation, but just a reminder to have everything out of sight!
Lastly, I would say this property is perfect for two families because the upstairs is completely separate from downstairs and it gives you space and privacy. Our teenage girls loved being upstairs and away from their parents. ;-) My husband and I also liked our bit of privacy.
