About this property

Charming Small Fishing Village With Sandy Bay

Beautiful and well equipped semi-detached villa in an enchanting setting. Nice south/south-west terrace under an old cork-tree for meals, and for full-moon amateurs. Four house levels + lower garden levels, large pool (11 x 5m), barbecue, WI-FI internet access, satellite TV, CD and DVD players. Water softener, and solar panels for heating the water (hot water deposit of 300 liters). Tamariu is a charming small fishing port without high rise apartments nor complexes with a small sandy "croissant" bay and promenade containing excellent Spanish bars and restaurants. Palafrugell with its daily market and supermarkets is 6km from the villa. Gerona (and its airport) lies at 1 hour drive (Barcelona-French border autopista), Barcelona at 125km. The region offers a large range of activities all year round: sports, culture, history, gastronomy, shopping and relaxation. The climate is very nice all year round. The (nearest) excellent tennis club with 19 courts is at 3km. There are 3-4 golf courses within a 30 min. drive, and 7-8 golf courses all together within one hour drive.

10/10 Excellent

Great villa, kind and helpful owner
It would be hard to find a more stunning location than this. The views from the house, the decks, and even the pool were incredible. In addition, the villa itself was lovely. Very good sized pool, nice villa with everything you need, and very clean. Tamariu and the surrounding area is beautiful, with your choice of beaches or rocky coast with good swimming and snorkelling. To top it all off, the owner was extremely helpful and nice throughout. A great holiday and we'd recommend it to anyone.

We will be back!
This villa really is in the most beautiful of locations looking out towards the stunning shoreline and sea. It's very well equipped....especially in the kitchen where every utensil, pan, gadget etc seems to have been provided! We were met by the owner who, after making sure we had all the local knowledge we needed and more, left us for the week with a much appreciated 'welcome' pack in the fridge! The large pool was great for 5 adult sized people and the pool man arrived and left without us seeing him, although we could tell he had been...all nice and clean! It has steep steps down to it but does have gates at the top and off the bedroom terrace for the safety of small children. The garden continues for a further two levels below the pool...again stepped. A lot of the garden is gently shaded throughout the day by the mature trees...whilst enough stays sun soaked! Tamariu is very picturesque and loads of activities available. Kayaks, canoes, motorboats, diving, snorkelling, coastal walks, etc. as well as cordoned off areas for swimming complete with lifeguard. The whole area is stunning with many places to visit and all the beaches we saw were brilliant. Went to Barcelona for the day...easy drive to train station...fabulous city. ?24 return for a journey of about 11/2 hours in spotlessly clean train. Not a lot of shopping in Tamariu but lots of good eating places, tapas bar and wonderful ice cream shop/restaurant that also does great pizza. It's about a 20min walk (mostly downhill) from the villa although a longer (mostly uphill) one on the way back. Take the car and park either for free along the road sides or for ?2.55 for the whole day in the 'wooded' car park. Area is heavily Catalan with the language spoken widely, however, many people we met had enough English to understand us and of course they also spoke Spanish. Beautiful area, extremely comfortable villa, great holiday...we will be back! Ps if you hire a car, make sure it can cope with the steep hills, coastal roads, you and your luggage....!

Why they chose this property

The first time I came to Tamariu with my late husband and newborn baby was in 1978, and it was love at first sight. We came back with another baby for summer holidays during nearly 20 years; we just never got enough of it. After moving from Lausanne to Barcelona in 2001 I started looking for a house on the coast. When I visited five houses in Tamariu with my daughters in one single day, this was the last one, and there was this immediate feeling of well being, and serenity. No more searching was necessary.

What makes this property unique

According to Feng shui the villa sits perfectly in the nature as there is a green zone with pine trees below the property overlooking the sea, and in the back there is a mountain. Very calm. On the hottest days there is a blissful breeze from the sea, which makes the lunches so enjoyable on the terrace under the natural shadow of the cork tree.
