Apartment Big terrace, with charm and very calm

Fantastic views from the balcony over Barcelona. Peaceful location. Very friendly, helpful owner. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and I stayed in this lovely apartment for 9 days. We wanted peaceful retreat away from the world and that's exactly what we got. The appartment itself was more than adequate for our needs, nicely decorated and very clean and well equipt. The location was beautiful, set high up above Cabrils with the most stunning views of the town and sea, that you will never tire of. The owners who lived in the house below were very nice and welcoming. They left us to our own devices but it was nice to know they were on hand if we needed anything. Overall an amazing place and an amazing holiday and will definitely be returning in the future.

The owners were very welcoming, and very helpful I helping us find our way around the area. The roads up to the apartment are amazingly confusing. I think our GPS (car and phones) gave us different directions every time we arrived and left the apartment. But, that just added to its charm :) The apartment was very clean, perfectly outfitted for our stay. We were there to see the area, so didn't "live" there lot. Really only eating breakfast and packing lunches for the day. But, the deck, view, friendly hosts, beautiful location, proximity to the train to Barcelona, trails to hike above the house, and comfortable platform bed made for perfect accomodations for our Spanish vacation 2018!

The apartment is very nice and well equipped. The terrace has a stunning view over Cabrils and the Mediterranean sea. Cabrils is a lovely little town with fine restaurants, few minutes driving to the beaches and half an hour by train to Barcelona.

When my wife and I first booked our flight to Barcelona we assumed we would be staying right down town in the heart of the city. But then we saw this listing. We looked it up on Google maps and at first thought it was too far away, too remote (30 km from Barcelona). It would also mean we would have to rent a car which we didn't think we wanted to do. We continued our search for places in the city and found a few we liked but kept coming back to this apartment in the hills of Cabrils. We looked into the cost of a car rental and found it was very reasonable so we started to search the area of Cabrils to see what was around there. Apart from the breathtaking view, pool and coziness of the apartment we found there were hiking trails into a national park just a short distance away, within walking distance of the unit. We love walking so decided this was where we wanted to stay and booked it. We figured we could drive into the city to see the various land marks. It was the right choice for us!

The apartment is set into the hillside far above the town of Cabrils. Cabrils is beautiful, quaint and full of things to see. It has great restaurants and a very authentic Catalan feel since it is not a commercialized area for tourists. We loved the apartment. It was perfect for two. The balcony and the view of the town below and the Mediterranean sea beyond the town was incredible. You never got tired of just looking at the view. The apartment was extremely well equipped having everything we could possibly need. The owner was excellent with the preliminary communications and very helpful with answering any questions we had. He and his wife live in the main part of the house. The apartment has it's own entrance and is essentially separate from the rest of the house. We were extremely happy with the accommodations - 10 out of 10!

I guess it all boils down to what kind of vacation you are looking for. If you're looking for lots of people around and parties to go to this is not the place for you. It was very quiet and peaceful and restful which is what my wife and I love. If you like nature, serenity, exploring a beautiful Catalan town and hiking up hills, look no further. Staying here was like a retreat which again isn't for everyone. We still got to see everything in Barcelona we wanted to but at the end of the day got to come back to our home in the hills! Took the train into Barcelona from nearby Vilassar de Mar so didn't even have to drive into the city.
