Villa with pool and breathtaking sea and mountain views in a peaceful location
Casa Vostra is a mountainside villa with five air-conditioned double bedrooms, offering tranquillity and stunning views of both the sea and surrounding mountains. Bedding and indoor towels are included in the rental, and fast Wi-Fi and Smart TVs are provided in the house.
The villa is just a short drive up from Laroque-des-Albères, which sits above the Côte Vermeille in the foothills of the eastern Pyrenees. It’s a delightful village, with winding streets leading to a tower offering spectacular views of the Mediterranean coast, and it boasts an impressive range of cafés and restaurants. Above the village and just outside the villa, there is access to hiking trails in the beautiful Massif des Albères.
The villa features a charming private pool (open from June to September), set into a wooden sun deck, and guests also enjoy access to a larger communal pool and a hard-surface tennis court, both located nearby. While the tennis court is usually open year-round, the communal pool is typically available from mid-June to mid-September, depending on the weather.
On the main level of the villa, there are two double bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom, as well as a spacious kitchen and dining room, a living room with a large TV, and a large bathroom with two toilets, one with a separate entrance. On the upper floor, there are two more double bedrooms. On the lower level of the villa, there is a double bedroom with its own entrance and ensuite toilet, as well as a laundry room and a pleasant, covered terrace with a large dining table and a simple kitchen desk for outside electric grill cooking.
The Mediterranean Pyrenees region, with over 330 sunny days a year, offers numerous great excursion destinations and experiences. Picturesque Collioure, art chic Céret, and cosmopolitan Perpignan, as well as superb Mediterranean beaches, are all within half an hour's drive away.

Thank you so much for leaving this nice review, very happy that you enjoyed your stay at Casa Vostra.
An amazing house in a beautiful area. We spent two glorious weeks in the house with five good bedrooms (with A/C).
We were 8 adults who enjoyed the well functioning house and pool, and had a great time in the local area.
The house absolutely lives up to all the images and deskriptions.
We highly recommend this location

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay and for your kind words.
Overall a very good property, you have everything you need in the house. The pool is great and the house is big enough so you don't feel cramped even with a big family.
And the view is just incredible.
Only downside is that it's on a hill side, and the shared tennis courts and pool are quite far.by foot.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. Happy you enjoyed the property and the surroundings. The 10-15 minutes walk to the tennis court and shared pool can be a bit long if it is very hot, I agree. At least you can always park right there if you prefer to take the car :)
We had a great stay at the Villa. The views are absolutely stunning and the Villa is spacious and comfortable with great cooking facilities. We enjoyed cooking and eating on the terrace every evening. The new pool is lovely. The surrounding area is beautiful including the nearby town of Laroque des Alberes. You do need a car though as shops and beaches are all a drive away.

Really happy to hear that you enjoyed it! The old pool was good, but the larger brand-new pool and the enlarged terrace in single level is an upgrade we are quite proud of so thanks for mentioning it :-)
Compliments for:
1. Lots of good spaces
2. Good Wi-Fi
3. Great washing machine, good place!
4. The drying room was great
5. The kitchen was very well equipped
6. Air conditioners in the bedrooms perfect, what a luxury in prolonged heat (which we enjoyed very much)
7. A beautiful location there in the mountains.
8. Great views.
9. Beautiful quiet area : fantastic
10. Nice village, supermarkets in the area, pharmacy in the village as well as a good bakery! Nice villages in the area. Various activities that you can use: horseback riding, rafting, markets, cozy and good restaurants in the village.
Incredible mountain views, lovely house, well equipped with a fab pool, we had a great holiday at Casa Vostra. Be prepared for a climb but the views are worth it, we stayed with our three children aged 11, 8 and 4 and they were in heaven in the pool, the balcony was wonderful for evening drinks and the lower area with table/plancha was magical for dinner- the views were breath taking. Air conditioning in bedrooms was a blessing during a very hot spell. The shared pool in the Domaine was fun too for a more active swim and Laroque des Alberes itself was very picturesque with restaurants and cafes, allbeit too far for an evening walk. We ran and cycled from the house and there are fire roads which give variety as long as you're prepared for the inevitable climb! It's a very quiet spot, private and tranquil, we were very aware of our own noise (!) but neighbours were friendly. Thank you for a wonderful holiday, a unique experience for our family.

Wonderful stay at Casa Vostra!
We had a wonderful week at Casa Vostra. The property is exactly as advertised and spacious enough for our group of 3 families. We really enjoyed having the pool and the beautiful terraces to view the valley and ocean. The house was clean and well maintained. We particularly appreciated the full compliment of kitchen utensils, dishes and sharp knives for our group, so we didn't have to spend all of our time washing dishes. Overall, we had a fabulous stay. The road to the house and the driveway are not for the faint of heart or those with larger vehicles. We did find parking on the road for those that didn't get their cars in the drive. The house is also outside of the the cute town of Laroque des Alberes, which isn't really within walking distance. Certainly, one doesn't walk down for breakfast or a visit to the pub. Thus, you really need to make sure you have what you need before climbing the mountain to the house. These minor details are really just that...minor. Anders was great and easy to reach by email. The exchange between Canadian and European banking systems was complicated, but worked. Overall, I would recommend this property for anyone who wanted a quiet villa vacation in a beautiful setting.
Maison avec une vue magnifique surement très agréable l'été mais un peu humide l'hiver surtout par temps de pluie comme lors de notre séjour . Toutefois, l hôte est très réactif et a solutionné nos problèmes d'électricité dans les meilleurs délais ; la situation est parfaite pour visiter les alentours et faire de belles randonnées ;

Merci d'avoir pris le temps de rédiger un avis. Malheureusement, la météo a été particulièrement défavorable, avec des pluies exceptionnellement abondantes. Je tiens à m'excuser une nouvelle fois pour les désagréments causés par la pluie sur l'électricité, mais je suis heureux que nous ayons pu faire intervenir un électricien rapidement malgré la période des fêtes.
Notre séjour fût très agréable, dans un cadre avec une vue exceptionnelle, au calme, près des chemins de randonnées et proche de la mer. Nous réitèrerons l'expérience avec joie.

Wir waren mit zwei Familien und fünf Kindern dort und haben alles so vorgefunden wie beschrieben. Der Ausblick von den Terrassen und vom Poolbereich ist wunderschön. Guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge (auf ein Auto ist man angewiesen), Wanderungen sind direkt vom Haus aus möglich.

Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihren Aufenthalt zu bewerten – und wir freuen uns, dass es Ihnen gefallen hat!
Vi havde en storfamilieferie i huset. Huset var den perfekte ramme med god plads. Poolen var perfekt for både voksne, børn og lille barn på 1,5 år. Vi følte alle, at der var god plads til privatliv og til at være fælles. Udsigten er fænomenal og der er roligt og dejligt oppe på bjerget. Vi har haft god kontakt med udlejer. Vi kunne ikke have ønsket os bedre rammer end dem vi har haft i huset.

très bon séjour
La maison est idéalement placée avec la mer à 20 minutes et des départs de randonnées au pied de la maison!Quand nous sommes arrivés la maison était glacialemais ensuite cela s'est réchauffé grâce aux radiateurs!Cependant, certains équipement sont vétustes et mériteraient d'être renouvelés (bouilloire, couettes et oreillers, aspirateur...)
Wir haben zwei schöne Wochen in Laroque des Alberes verbracht. Vor allem die Aussicht ist ein Traum. Die Kinder hatten jeden Tag viel Spaß im Pool und auch der Weg zum Meer lohnt sich.
Das Internet ist anders als beschrieben sehr gut - die Kinder waren begeistert (>500Mbit).
Anders ist ein sehr netter Vermieter, der sich bei Problemen sofort kümmert und nach einer Lösung sucht.

Comme nous l'avons également évoqué lors de votre séjour, nous ne pouvons encore une fois que regretter que le ménage ait été si mal fait. C'était une nouvelle personne qui avait repris le travail depuis le début de l'année. Nous en avons bien sûr pris les conséquences et avons immédiatement mis fin à cette collaboration. Ceux qui assuraient les travaux de nettoyage depuis de nombreuses années ont heureusement accepté de reprendre les travaux.
Le sejour etait vraiment tres agreable. La description du logement correspond a la realite. La vue est incroyable, le lieu est vraiment tres agreable a vivre.
Nous recommandons vivement cette magnnifique villa.

Tout s'est très bien dans la villa à Laroque des Albères. La maison est très spacieuse, avec une superbe vue et tout les ustensiles nécessaires pour passer un agréable voyage. Rien ne peux malheureusement se faire à pied (les courses notamment) mais le petit village en contrebas est très mignon.

Merci beaucoup pour votre excellente critique. Il est vrai que la vue fantastique et la tranquillité de la montagne font que vous n'êtes pas à quelques pas de la ville de Laroque en contrebas. Une voiture est nécessaire et cela ne prend que 6-7 minutes.
Quartier très calme en cette saison, superbes vues, ....., lles vues,
Logement fonctionnel, agréable, difficile d'accéder à la maison pour personnes à mobilités réduites, bel environnement, très beau séjour...

Maison atypique, superbe vue et idéalement située. L'équipement mis à disposition ne correspond pas au standing qui est vendu dans l'annonce. Le propriétaire avait promis le dépôt d'un parasol de piscine, il n'est jamais arrivé....pas tres sympa sachant qu'il y avait des enfants en bas âge.

Merci d'avoir pris le temps d'évaluer votre séjour. Je ne peux que m'excuser pour le parasol de la piscine qui a été cassé par les clients partis juste avant vous et qui ne nous en ont pas informés. Un nouveau a été acheté par notre responsable de maison local pendant votre séjour dès que cela a été possible.
Cet endroit est époustouflant, vous buvez votre café le matin devant la montagne. La maison est atypique et permet à chacun de s'isoler ou de retrouver les siens selon ses envies.
La piscine est très agréable, et bienvenue avec la chaleur que nous avons eue. A la fois proche des grands centres touristiques et préservée dans un endroit privilégié.
Merci beaucoup au propriétaire pour ses échanges réactifs, et aussi au monsieur très sympa qui passe tous les deux jours pour l'entretien de la piscine. Bel été à tous.

About the host
Hosted by Anders Rosenbeck
I live in the Copenhagen area in Denmark with my family. I have an engineering background and my wife is a schoolteacher. Since I was a child, I have been visiting most regions in France and I was living in Nancy for half a year during my studies.
Why they chose this property
In 2005 my wife and I started thinking about buying a house in South of France. When we first visited the Pyrénées-Orientales department, we fell in love with the relaxed French Catalan atmosphere, the sunny climate and the Pyrenees linking with the Mediterranean Sea.
What makes this property unique
Casa Vostra offers space, peace & quiet and magnificent views. The private pool is great for cooling off and there is also access to a larger pool and a tennis court in the domain. Further, the villa has direct access to beautiful mountain tracks, yet it is still close to so many charming villages, great restaurants, and amazing beaches.
