Very nice surroundings with great facilities to enjoy relaxing villa holiday. Super great big & deep pool for kids to have blast and well equipped pool barbeque area to make & eat lunch and dinner. We had great connection with our hosts and they were happy to guide us to find the best to-do’s of the area. Thank you for making us feel welcome, happy to recommend this villa and location.

Isabel was a great host, accommodating our requests from very early on in communications. When there was a downpour and the pool had mud in it, she messaged especially to apologise and share all the cleanup plans for the pool ahead of time.Property was clean, came with separate shampoo and conditioner, and is much bigger than the listing photos imply. Although Isabel lives nearby, she is very careful to give enough space and privacy. She is very responsive whenever we have questions. Superb host and superb property

Villa Can Duarry was everything we hoped it would be! It was exactly as advertised. Perfectly situated in the idyllic town of Premia de Dalt, only 5 minute drive to the sea. The grounds were amazing. Lush and well maintained with a nice little play area for our grandson. Beautiful covered patios! The pool is huge, although we didn’t get to take advantage of it due to the rainy weather during our stay. The Villa interior space was perfect for our family of 6 adults and a two year old. You will surely not be disappointed in your stay here. Thank you so much Isabel and Jordi!

Happiness!

Happiness really is a place! Jordi was a gracious and attentive host, answering all questions we had promptly and completely. His recommendations made our visit easy and enjoyable. The villa was clean, comfortable and quite nicely appointed. While being quite spacious the entire place had a cozy feel. There is a lovely park just across the street and we were lucky enough to be serenaded by a local folk music festival one night which made us feel like part of the community. The neighborhood is quiet and private with groceries and a couple of restaurants within and easy 5 min walk. The drive into Barcelona took roughly 30 minutes and the local beach was maybe 10 minutes down the road. Parking was easy along the street and quite safe. This engagement exceeded my expectations in every way. Thank you, Jordi, for helping us have an outstanding vacation.

Fabulous House

We arrived, walked through to beautiful wooden doors to be met with a wonderful & stunning garden. It took your breath away. Jordi greeted us & showed us around the grounds, the swimming pool, garden kitchen was amazing. We walked into the house where carefully crafted living zones inside & out had been created. The house felt peaceful, relaxing & calm. Appliances where of the highest level in the kitchen. Bedrooms were superb & our master bedroom had glorious views over the garden. We booked the chef Victor & had a great fun night of traditional Catalonian food & wine it was superb. Some of our family joined a local gym & spa playing padel where others loved the close proximity to Barcelona & the tourist experience. We could not recommend this house enough & would love to go back. Regards Tracey

A hidden gem

From the moment we booked our stay at Villa Can Duarry the hosts, Isabel & Jordi went above and beyond for us. They arranged a private chef for our small little family gathering where we shared our vows together on their property. It's like a private resort with everything you could ever need. You can walk into Premià de Dalt and grab a coffee and groceries. She provided recommendations and put us in direct contact with a local cab driver to take us into Barcelona. You wouldn't even know that the home owners were staying on the same property. You have access to all the amenities. Amazing privacy and Isabel will go above and beyond for you. The house is kept up nicely and so are the grounds, the pictures on VRBO don't even do justice for this home. We will rebook again next year for vacation. Thank you Isabel and Jordi! Such a fabulous home, but even better hosts! 10/10

Not a place for celebrations or privacy!

Originally I booked this villa on vrbo as it looked idyllic and perfect for my 50th birthday break with an all lady group, Isabella welcomed our party and showed us around the beautiful property and gardens on arrival , please be aware this is not a place for celebrations and noise must be kept to a minimum after 10pm, which my party adhered to every evening, ensuring we did not sit outside in the bbq area after this time. Isabel was warm and friendly whereas her husband Jordi was rude and abrupt to some of our guests which spoilt our overall holiday experience in the villa, owners are living in adjacent house a few metres away and we felt that we couldn’t relax, even inside the property we felt we had to tip toe around, Jordi was often intrusive to our space and seemed to appear out of nowhere telling us not to stand on the grass in a dismissive manner , or to keep the noise down at dinner time well before the original request of 10pm! Neighbourhood was quiet, supermarket near by and some small mediocre restaurants within walking distance - residential area.. not much to do or see! After reading other reviews elsewhere, I can see we were not the only guests which Jordi had treated in the same manner to us! A review was made with the Identical experience my party received. Most reviews of 5 stars! But please do not be fooled by this! Happiness is a place was a stunning property but unfortunately rating of 3 stars due to Jordi’s rude communication to my party,

Wir waren für 5 Nächte mit insgesamt 9 Personen in dieser traumhaften Unterkunft. Die Zimmeraufteilung ist perfekt. 4 Schlafzimmer im Erdgeschoss, davon haben 2 Zimmer ein eigenes Bade und 2 Zimmer teilen sich ein gemeinsames Bad. Das Hauptschlafzimmer befindes sich im Obergeschoss, mit einer kleinen Terrasse und bietet einen einzigartigen Blick in den Garten.Die kleine Kapelle hat unsere freie Trauung zu etwas ganz Besonderen gemacht.Der Garten ist wunderschön angelegt, der Pool ist riesig und die Außenküche lädt mit dem überdachten Essbereich zum genießen ein. Isabell hat uns bei der Planung unserer Hochzeit super unterstützt und war bei Fragen jederzeit erreichbar. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
