We really enjoyed our stay, the apartment is exactly as described, a large kitchen with dining table and a spacious bedroom with big double bed at one end and living room area at the other. The building itself is very old and has been renovated with great attention to detail and the finish is superb. The overall look is very charming and we loved our short stay and will hopefully one day come back again. Outside there is a tiled veranda with sun loungers and rack for drying cloths. The shower room is big enough for two and accessible from the kitchen diner.
The apartment is on the top floor (4th) and you need to climb stairs to reach it (no lift). This was OK for us, but perhaps not for someone older or less mobile. The apartment also has free Wi-Fi (which was great as no phone signal) and a couple of TV's (that we didn't use). On the ground floor there is a great little bar that also does coffee, breakfast etc. The area is generally quiet and peaceful.
The building located in the centre of Palafrugell, which is a large market town a few miles inland from the coast. There are plenty of restaurants very close by and the town has a large street market everyday and an extra large market on Sunday so it's easy to get fresh groceries and local provisions. There is a bus stop at the end of the street, 2 minutes from the apartment and buses run once or twice everyday to Tamariu, Llafranc and Calella de Palafrugel. All are well worth a visit and the coastal walk that connects them is challenging at times but something we'd recommend for the adventurous as the views and landscape are a joy.
The owner Gemma was great, very professional and helpful. Making the booking was easy and straight forward. We were a bit late arriving to the property due to a delayed flight, but we were met by the lovely Mrs Laura who was very helpful and got us settled in quickly. The service overall was fantastic and I am very happy to recommend this property and we hope to visit again soon.
