🎉 At last — a villa where you can truly say, "the more the merrier!" 🏡

I’ve been working with the kind owners of Mas Dalt since 1998, We make quite a good team. I'm good at presenting the villa and taking care of their bookings, and they are good at maintaining the villa and taking good care of guests while they are here. Set on a private hillside estate 🌳, this historic Catalan property is quite unique. It has been restored and expanded to now legally accommodate 12 bedrooms with beds for 27+ in an historic villa with gorgeous grounds and large private pool, all with exceptional views of the coastal plain below.

💫 3 fully independent apartments, each with:
• 🍳 A full kitchen (dishwasher & washing machine included)
• 🛋️ Dining/living areas with fireplace, stereo, and TV
• 🍖 Outdoor seating & BBQ zones

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Whether you’re a large family gathering, hosting a retreat, or planning a multi-family holiday, this villa is designed to bring people together while giving everyone plenty of space.

🍽️ Shared spaces include:
• A massive 80 m² indoor salon/dining area with 10m high ceilings and terrac, perfect for gathering everyone under one roof
• A covered wooden-beamed gazebo with panoramic views over the pool
• A charming stone-arched porch with BBQ & picnic tables, both lit for magical outdoor dinners ✨


🏡 The owners — kindhearted, discreet local dairy farmers — live just down the hill in a nearby mansion. They’re on hand if needed but always respect your privacy. 🌾


📌 Please note: 🔇 This is not a party house so as of about midnight or 1am, noise levels must be normal. This is not a good villa for late night parties.

💬 Thinking about 2026 or even 2027? Now’s the time to book! 🗓️

🏡 2 kms away is 17 bedroom villa HAUK No. 8598549 – Mas Dalt, another very large 1200m2 holiday rental villa with 30 five star reviews on VRBO, and beds for up to 40 or so guests.

The outdoors: the 12x5 meter swimming pool is on a wide lawn just below the house with plenty of shade trees, 16 deck chairs, and a small WC & changing room & small table under a nicely decorated pool house. Oh, and there is also a poolside shower, and the owners have bought a ping pong table which gets moved around from place to place.

Remember that all water on this property comes from a private on-site well, so no problem with good quality water supply no matter how dry it gets.

There are many outdoor eating areas, but the most popular is under the stone arches next to a barbecue pit near the main doorway into the villa On the other side of the main entrance to the house is the 100m2 game room, with ping pong, a pool table and a babyfoot table. Beyond the game room is the washroom with two washing machines and a clothes drier and a sink for hand washing.

In short, this is a high-quality & no-risk rental, offered at very competitive rates. A great villa with a proven track record since the year 2000. I think there are about 15 unanimously 5-star reviews in our VRBO advert. The owners and I make a great team. I have nearly 30 years of experience taking care of the bookings and the guests up to the rental dates, and then the owners take over when the guests get here. The owners do a fantastic job. Everything runs so smoothly, it’s a joy to work with them. I’ve been working with two generations of them since 1998!

Contact me & I'll send additional stuff I have on this very special villa, including: a movie of the villa, more photos, links to 3-D visits, the arquitect’s drawings of the layout, a copy of my 94-page local guidebook, Google Earth photos of the cal shopping & catering, etc...

I look forward to hearing from you!
Charlie

About the host

Hosted by Charlie Williams and Maria

Host profile image
Reliable villa brokers online since 1997, Charlie and Maria offer some of the best villas in the area & for the lowest rates. How do we do it? Let's just say we got in early (again1997!) and we are working with owners who have inherited their properties after generations. This translates into savings to you for obvious reasons. New owners have to charge very high rental rates in order to make back the huge investments involved in buying a large villa at current prices.

In any case, you would do well to work with an intermediary offering the kind of services we offer. There is no extra cost to you, and working within the framework we offer takes a lot of the guesswork out of booking with confidence and working with us in the lead up to your holiday.

We have an established reputation and you can be sure of what you are getting when you rent one of our properties! Every year I get calls from people who were in touch with us and then decided to "go it alone". Well, at the risk of scaremongering, I can say it is not unheard of when large groups of people show up at a non-existing property. I'm sure many of you already know that this sort of scam exists.

All the villas we work with are offically controlled and inspected and are registered and licensed by the local tourism boards. In fact, our rental contracts - available in English and French as well as Spanish and Catalan - are provided by the tourism board and provide a further guarantee to the holiday-maker.

Our Insider's Guide to the Province of Girona is 94 A-4 pages-long and describes in detail 10 routes you can follow by car thoughtout the region, with info sites and sights, restaurants, shopping, beaches, etc, as well as insider tips. We can send you this via email as a pdf file and there is no charge.

Our instructions for getting to the property upon arrival are excellent & we use Google Earth photos to mark the route & identify places of interest.

What makes this property unique

Working with these owners since 2000, sleeps up to 30 or so in 12 large bedrooms, 9 full bathrooms + 3 WCs, Can Tapies is a magnificent 1100 m2 baronial stone mansion consisting of three fully equipped and independent apartments on a gorgeous hillside property overlooking the Costa Brava. One apartment has 5 en suite bedrooms, another flat has 3 en suite bedrooms, and the third flat has 4 bedrooms sharing a double bathroom. It is very important to stress here that these are not 3 apartments crammed into a normal farmhouse. The house is huge and each apartment is very generously proportioned, with full kitchen, a large living/dining room, big bedrooms, private terraces, and each flat set well apart from one another for privacy. There is a new 100m2 playroom with billiard, ping pong, and table football. The newly fenced 12x5m swimming pool is set in an olive grove just below the house and next to a football pitch with goalposts. The views out over the coastal plain are fantastic! Great for larger groups but as you can see priced for smaller groups who might just want a little extra space! Free WIFI internet.
