Spacious villa with large swimming pool close to Sitges and Barcelona
The villa was built in 2004 and has far reaching mountain views. It contains a large lounge and dining area and a fully equipped kitchen with microwave and dishwasher. It has four bedrooms (1 double en-suite, 1 twin and 2 singles) and 3 bath/shower rooms. All rooms have access to balcony or terraces. The house has a private pool of 4 by 8 m and a private, secluded garden with large patios. Excellent facilities to relax and enjoy the Mediterranean climate. Underneath the porch there is an outside dining area. Washing machine and tumble dryer are available. The house is located in gated community for optimal privacy and security. There is a local restaurant in the village where one can enjoy typical Spanish food. Supermarkets, further, restaurants and shops are to be found in the close-by villages of St Pere de Ribes and Canyelles, 5 min down the main road.
Barcelona: Visit Barcelona with its many well known attractions and fabulous restaurants Ramblas, Sagrada Familia, Gaudi, Boqueria-market, Port Olimpic, Montjuic, FC Barcelona football stadium, Place de Catalunia, Pasei de Gracia, Casa Mila - la Pedrera, Casa Batllo, Museu Picasso, Fundacio Miro, Palau de Musica, Catedral de Barcelona, Ciutat Vella - the old town, Maremagnum, Colombus monument, Zoo, Parc Guell, Tibidabo, and many more.
Enjoy the beach towns Sitges and Villanova: Sitges, at 10 min drive from the villa, is a beautiful small coastal town, known for its beaches, its fabulous boulevard, historical sites, night life and fantastic restaurants of which many are specialised in fish and other seafood. It has for decades been a popular haunt for artists and actors and those that like the finer things in life. Sitges is very much unspoilt and still has pebbled streets, providing a nice contrast from the hustle and bustle of Barcelona. It is also popular for its regular local festivals. The internationally best known are the Carnival in February and the Film festival at the end of the summer. Villanova, just south of Sitges, is well known for its large and beautiful family beaches, restaurants and shops. Villanova is very much a family hit.
The surroundings: If you want a break from the pool, there is much to see and to do in the area. Well appreciated attractions are visits to local wine bodegas. The most popular among our guests are the ones to Torres, Codorniu and Freixenet. All at approximately 15 min drive. More adventurous and a bit further is the wine area of the Priorat. Another hit is a visit to the Monastery of Montserret and its spectacular location in the mountains. A bit further away and less known but well appreciated are the monasteries of Santa Creus and of Santa Maria de Poblet. For children the adventure parc of Port Aventura is a must at less than an hours drive, close to Tarragona. At Terragona worthwhile a visit is the Roman city, a UNESCO world heritage site. And wherever one is travelling to, trying out the local Spanish restaurants with their fabulous dishes is a real treat.

Great retreat, a wonderful stay!
I really was impressed with the pictures on this website, but the villa is even more beautiful and luxurious in real. We've had a great time enjoying the first sun rays after the cold winter. The villa is spacious and fits a large family. It is wel equipped as well. You can find everything you need.
The house was clean and in good condition. There are some supermarkets in the neighbourhood, but I recommend the market, where you can find the fresh products. Try some meals in the small restaurants in de village, you'll be amazed!
I would really recommend this accommodation to my family and friend. We certainly want to go back!

op de site staat bij airco : ja, dan kan je ervan uitgaan dat er overal airco is. Echter is er maar in één slaapkamer airco aanwezig. Het huis word verhuurt tot 8 personen, de ijskast in de keuken is vel te klein voor het aantal personen. Jammer genoeg was dit de enige ijskast in het hele huis. Ook waren er in de keuken, eetkamer en het zwembad geen 8 stoelen voorzien, max 6..De tuin, terrassen en tegels rond het zwembad zijn slecht onderhouden en kunnen een renovatie gebruiken. De tegels rond het zwembad zijn zeer glad als ze in aanraking komen met water. De waterdruk bij alle kranen is zeer laag, een buitendouche zou een meerwaarde zijn. Alle toiletten zijn in de badkamers. Het huis was zeer netjes bij aankomst, lakens en handdoeken waren fris gewassen. Het koppel dat ons verwelkomde was zeer vriendelijk en gaf ons de nodige info. Een grote pluim voor hen.

Response from VrboOwner on 31 Aug, 2025
Dank voor uw uitgebreide reactie. We hebben van het echtpaar dat u heeft ontvangen en begeleid begrepen dat u een fijne vakantie hebt gehad.
Via VRBO ontvangen wij tot maximaal zes volwassenen en twee kinderen in ons huis. Zoals ook in uw geval. Privé, met familie en vrienden, hebben we vaak grotere groepen, tot wel tien personen. Met vijf slaapkamers, drie badkamers, drie eettafels, zitjes en tuinstoelen op meerdere terrassen, negen ligbedden en een normale koel-vries combinatie, zijn onze gasten in het algemeen juist verrast hoe ruim het vakantiehuis is.
Hetzelfde genoemde echtpaar dat het huis zo schoonhoudt, onderhoudt en verzorgt ook wekelijks met liefde de terrassen (inclusief antislip tegels rondom het zwembad) en de tuinen. De renovatie van de terrassen is voor volgend jaar inderdaad ingepland.
Wij adverteren via VRBO in de UK en op hun website staat correct beschreven welke slaapkamers beschikken over vaste of mobiele airconditioning in combinatie met plafondventilatoren. Hoe deze informatie wordt vertaald naar websites in andere landen kunnen wij niet beïnvloeden. Jammer wanneer daarbij een verkeerde indruk is gewekt.
Wij, een gezin van 4 hebben het heerlijk gehad. Het huis is fijn en het zwembad is top. De ligging van het huis is prettig. Je bent binnen enkele minuten in Sitges en dan kun je gemakkelijk met de trein naar Barcelona.
We had a fabulous fortnight at this amazing villa.
Everything was perfect from the booking process through to leaving today.
We arrived on a fairly late flight and the property managers were at the house to greet us, having done some shopping for us
The villa is in a great location near beaches, Sitges and Barcelona, but in a small development with great views.
It is well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean, and we felt the photos don’t do justice to how really lovely it is.
The pool is secluded and well maintained and perfect for lazing around by.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this villa.
Photos do no do the property justice we were 2 families and there was plenty of room and you can sleep over 5 rooms. the pool is a good size and we loved it was salt water. Everything well equipped in the kitchen
You do need a car but can easily get a taxi in Sitges where the train links to Barcelona are frequent
Très belle villa dans lotissement à Canyelles, très bien équipée, les gérants sont très sympa et réactifs en cas de problème, seul point noir, la présence de nombreux chiens dans les environs qui crient à n'importe quelle heure du jour ou de la nuit.

Dejligt hus
Dejligt hus med masser af terrasser og super pool. Man skal være være opmærksom på at der kun er Air condition i et værelse.
Situation très agréable entre mer et montagne, très joli cadre. Accueil personnalisé.
Très bon accueil, villa impeccable, panorama sur la montagne, beaux espaces extérieurs avec plusieurs dénivelés, la piscine bien entretenue, ventilation efficace ou climatisation des chambres. Belles balades au départ de la location. Les plages de Sitges à 10mn, Montserrat à 45mn, Barcelone par le train ou voiture. Un séjour réussi à 100%.
Lovely villa. Everything you need and more. Could benefit from A/C though.
Fabulous holiday

If you want to have a relaxed holiday in a house in Spain close to sea/nice villages/(convenient) stores/nature this is the place to go. I have had a very nice time there, with lots of good food, wine & sun (by the pool). Thanks!

A luxury home from home
A brilliantly well-appointed home-from-home with lots of space for a big family or to share with friends, equipped with everything needed to make your holiday base as carefree as possible. Set in a quiet urbanisation and overlooking a scenic rugged landscape, we relaxed within hours of our arrival and wanted for nothing that wasn't already provided.
Heated pool; multi-level terraces with sunbeds and sunshades; outdoor eating areas; a quiet day room; spacious lounge-diner with TV and wi-fi; garage/utility with washing machine, tumble-dryer and drying rack; kitchen with breakfast table, fridge-freezer, kettle, toaster, pots, pans, cutlery & crockery and dishwasher; downstairs WC & shower room; 4 well-furnished bedrooms (one en-suite, with portable air-con and access to small rear terrace), all with comfortable beds; upper front terrace to 3 smaller rooms; good size family bathroom; shared private gated driveway; secure side gated access.
10 minute drive into Canyelles (for convenience store, supermarket, bakery and pharmacy); 20 minutes into Sitges; 50 minutes to Tarragona (and PortAventura); 40 minutes into Barcelona.
The most delightful base for your own 'please-yourself' holiday!
The villa exceeded our expectations from the listing, was extremely clean and well-maintained, was served by a fantastic local couple who took care of cleaning & linen etc. (friendly English ex-pats).
We enjoyed the wide variety of restaurants in Sitges, and its lovely beach, and the children used the pool every day - sometimes twice!

Vriendinnenvakantie
Wij hebben 6 dagen met 7 vriendinnen in dit fantastische huis gelogeerd. Bij aankomst waren de bedden opgemaakt en de handdoeken lagen heerlijk fris klaar. Het huis was heerlijk schoon en ook het zwembad lag er prachtig bij. Het boek met instructies was compleet en wifi werkt prima. Dit was ons derde verblijf en we komen zeker volgende jaar weer terug.

Het was hier fantastisch !
Wij hebben een geweldige week gehad in deze prachtige villa. Het huis bied zeer veel mogelijkheden. Met de 4 terrassen heb je altijd zon , of schaduw , indien gewenst. Daarnaast is het gezellig en praktisch ingedeeld. Alles wat je nodig hebt voor een plezierig verblijf is aanwezig. Wij gaan zeker nog eens terug en kunnen het iedereen aanbevelen. Barcelona en Sitges zijn dichtbij. De mooie wijnhuizen bij Villafranca of Sant Sadurni moet men zeker gaan bezoeken, wat een super tip was ! Wij hebben erg genoten van de excursie en proeverij.
Kortom, wie een verblijf zoekt in de buurt van Barcelona, in het binnenland maar ook dichtbij strand, raden wij deze villa aan. Dank jullie wel voor het verblijf !

Second home
It is a beautiful spot to be at.
You can go here with a big familiy, and it is really luxurious.
There are many places in the neighbourhood where you can go to.
In March the temperature is appr. 21 degrees, and it feels like 24.
We had a great time and will surely come back!

Villa 'Imke', the place to be!
Last July, we spent great holidays in a beautiful and welcoming region. Villa ‘Imke’ is very cosy with all the modern facilities and well located, not far from the motorway and close to the coast and the supermarkets. We enjoyed the sunny weather from dawn to dusk and sunbathed each day next to the large swimming pool. We also paid some interesting visits in the area (Barcelona, Tarragona, Sitges and Vilanova), not to mention the Torres Bodegas in Pacs del Penedès, where we could taste and buy excellent wines. If you need a piece of information, Melissa and Paul, the neighbours, are always there to help. In conclusion, villa ‘Imke’ is the place to be to spend a great time with your family.
