A great home base for the Costa del Sol

We spent 10m days at the property immediately before the start of the season. A charming country, historic village convenient to everything (including the beaches). As you see from the photos, the property is in keeping with the character of the village.We were well hosted and the managers and their staff were responsive and immediately available to solve any problems.All in al, we highly recommend the property for your stay.

M T & L half term hols

Property was as advertised. Due to flight times we arrived at 23:00 hrs, couldn’t access the property due to the PIN code for the gate being incorrect. Tried ringing the property contact number we had with no success. Contacted VRBO for help, sadly the only thing they could offer was to book us another appartment elsewhere ( this was at 1AM in the morning! Anyways after a bit of a palaver we managed to find an alternate way in ! Apart from this appartment was great, the medieval town was nice for wandering about in.

Wunderschönes Schmuckstück am Rande der Altstadt

Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen und man erreicht in sehr kurzen Wegen Bäcker, Metzger, Obst-und Gemüsehändler sowie eine hervorragende Gastronomie.

Belle maison, bien rénovée. Piscine vide à notre arrivée, bien sur on ne nous a pas prévenu avant. Compensation financière out de même obtenue. Une semaine a supporté les désagréments quotidiens des travaux dans la maison jumelle appartenant au même propriétaire: bruit et poussière en permanence.... Rapport qualité prix faible. Je ne recommande pas.

Can Catalina stay October 2019

Had a fantastic stay in Pals for our first family holiday. Love the property and the pool was great for our 6 month old son to play in. Pals is a beautiful place and as we had a car there are lots of places to visit within a 30min to 1 hour drive. Had only one issue with our stay. We found that the beds creaked a lot when sleeping if we moved or rolled about, which only was an issue as our son was sleeping in the cot in the same room. Apart from this a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend.

Prachtig huis in goede locatie

Zeer mooi huis. Volledig ingericht. Goede locatie met parkeer plaats. Jammer van kleine details zoals te weinig handdoeken of geen basis kruiden. Maar ja als je het weet ben je voorbereid. Leuk om zo naar de winkels en restaurants te lopen. Koop bij de bakker tegen over de madeleines. Ze zijn heerlijk.

Lovely home; perfect location!

We thoroughly enjoyed 5 nights in this exceptional property! Three couples each had their own large bedroom and bathroom with lots of community space. We loved cooking together in the kitchen and eating outdoors or in. Well maintained and convenient to all of the Costa Brava. Pals itself is a beautiful town with all conveniences nearby.

Lovely house and ideal location

We had a lovely holiday in Pals, the house Can Caranta was super with everything we needed. The best thing though, was the location with local shops on the doorstep and great restaurants and cafes within walking distance. The old town is charming and there are many interesting places to visit within a short drive. Most enjoyable.

Espectacular... volveremos!!

Hacía tiempo que no disfrutábamos de una casa como la de Can Caranta. Las habitaciones espaciosas, con su vestidor y su baño, la cocina impresionante, el salón super confortable que da al jardín, una maravilla. Es perfecto para disfrutar del pueblo de Pals, porque estás en pleno centro con todas las tiendas a mano, restaurantes... y al mismo tiempo llegas a la casa y respiras una paz... Tiene una piscina monísima! La verdad es que nos la encontramos muy limpla y la atención que tuvieron con nosotros tanto Enric como Rosa Mª en todo momento también es digno de mención. ¡No dudéis en visitarla!

Summer holidays with friends

Maison tres fonctionnelle, chaleureuse et agreable idealement située dans le ravissant village de Pals. 1h de Barcelone, 30 mn de Girone et 15 mn de la magnifique plage de Callela de Palafrugell. Nombreux golfs aux alentours. Nous recommandons vivement cette maison. Suggestions : un parasol pour la terrasse et la clim dans toute la maison (actuellement uniquement dans une chambre) Merci a Enric pour sa disponibilité et sa gentillesse et Maria pour ses conseils.

The perfect place

Can Caranta is a marvelous place to live, pretty comfortable, perfect decoration, very close from everywhere and so nice. The beaches around are very beautiful and if you go like us with our children, they will enjoy so much in the swimming pool and feel secure as if they where at home. We recommend it for sure!

Fin de semana inolvidable!!!!

Alquilamos la casa para pasar el fin de semana. Tres parejas y un bebé. La casa es preciosa, está muy bien decorada. Es muy cómoda ya que tiene tres habitaciones dobles con baño en cada una de ellas. También nos proporcionaron una cuna que solicitamos en el momento de la reserva. La cocina y el comedor están muy bien equipados, no falta detalle. Estuvimos en enero y pudimos disfrutar de la chimenea. La casa además dispone de un sistema de calefacción de suelo radiante muy confortable. La casa se encuentra en una ubicación ideal, en un pueblo tranquilo como Pals, cerca de la playa (5km) y rodeada de preciosos parajes rurales para visitar. A 15 min se encuentra la ciudad de Palafrugell donde hay un fantástico mercado de pescado, carne y verdura. La propiedad Enric y María Rosa son muy amables y muy atentos. Volveremos en verano para poder disfrutar de la piscina ;)

What a lovely place --- we had a wonderful time!

We were two families vacationing together (total: 5 adults, 3 kids under age 5). This location was perfect, for grownups and kids alike. Very nice house in the most beautiful region of the Costa Brava without mass tourism. Relaxingpool and garden Inside the house it is very spacey and there is everything you need.. Its location was perfect for exploring this beautiful area of Catalonia. We really enjoyed exploring the immediate countryside, there are several beautifully preserved medieval villages within easy cycling distance. The beds were comfy and the bed linen and towels of a good quality. The house was clean and well presented. The kitchen facilities are excellent and all 8 of us really could sit in comfort and enjoy our meals in the pleasant dining area. The glasses, crockery and cutlery were all more than adequate. (We didn't use the BBQ or eat in the garden so I can't comment on this experience.) The village is full of restaurants so there is no need to cook if you don't want to and no need to drive in the evenings. We tried 3 restaurants and they were all good. The last day we did part of the 'Cami de Ronda', an ancient smugglers path along the stunning coastal scenery of the Costa Brava. The section we did, between the beach at Pals and SaRiera is beautiful, with stunning virgin coves along the way. The Costa Brava region of Spain is a "must see" for anyone who loves travel. We are hoping to come back as we didn't have enough time to see it all!. Thank you for all your help in making it a magical week for us all, we enjoyed our stay immensely! Thanks again Enric, it was great!!!

not quite as described

We stayed at the properly for a week (joined other family members who had booked it for 2 weeks). A lovely house but several things were not quite as described....only 2 sun loungers so had to take turns between the 7 of us! Poor WIFi connection so spent several days unconnected. Only one room had a fan so we asked for another one which turned up 2 days later covered in dust. Bedside lamp broken/no bulb. We didn't meet owner but Rosa, who managed it, didn't speak any English so communication could be difficult for people who speak no Spanish. Last annoying thing was that the pillows are very mean and bed sheets could have done with an update. Sorry but this property does not quite match it's description.

Beautiful stay at Can Caranta, Pals!

We stayed at Can Caranta, Aurora's House, for two weeks in June 2013. My husband, myself and our little 11 week old daughter had the most amazing stay in a stunning villa in the middle of the beautiful medieval village of Pals. The villa is so nice that some days we decided not to go out and simply enjoyed the house, the lovely pool and terrace. The house is exactly as described on the images, very clean, has a well equipped kitchen and stunning bathrooms. The inside of the house (downstairs) stays cool even when it gets very warm outside which is nice and refreshing. The garden and pool are serviced regularly. The house is located in the old medieval village of Pals just outside the old town walls. The village has small fruit and vegetable shops, convenience stores, etc and (very important!) a little store that sells delicious homemade artisan ice-cream. Take a stroll through the old village, it's worth it, especially before the shops open early in the morning. Supermarkets can be found in villages / towns nearby. We discovered a few small beaches along the coast that were not too touristy and enjoyed spending hours by the beach. The coastal walks are gorgeous and there are plenty of them. It would be advisable to come by car / rent a car to be able to explore the lovely area. A parking space is available on the property. We will definitely come back!

Dias de descanso en CAN CARANTA, PALS

Vi la casa y me quede prendada de ella.... No teníamos claro donde pasar las vacaciones pero no dude cuando entré en Homeaway y vi CAN CARANTA. Fue como estar en casa, muy acogedora, cálida y confortable. No le falta detalle para pasar unos días de descanso. La cocina es muy espaciosa y con toda clase de comodidades. Las habitaciones grandes y cómodas igual que el resto de la casa. Teniamos Wifi en toda la casa. Tenemos que agradecer a Enric y Rosa su amabilidad desde el momento en que nos pusimos en contacto con ellos. Todo y que han sido unos días muy fríos de febrero, en la casa no se notaba ya que tienen muy buena calefacción. La visión nocturna de la piscina, era muy relajante, con el cambio de colores. En verano debe ser fantástico poder bañarse en ella. La casa esta situada muy cerca de centro de Pals, (precioso pueblo medieval) pero lo suficientemente alejada para estar tranquilo, sin ruidos. También esta cerca de hermosas playas y lugares de interés. Muy cerca de la casa hay una carnicería/charcutería/quesería/ donde se puede encontrar casi de todo, panadería, farmacia, colmados pequeños y prensa y a unos dos kilómetros un súper grande, también restaurantes. La gente del pueblo emana amabilidad lo que sigue haciendo muy cómoda la estancia en Pals. Enric, muchas gracias por facilitarnos la paellera.... nos salió una paella de "categoría". Recomendamos sin ninguna duda la estancia en CAN CARANTA. Queriamos descansar y lo hemos conseguido. Muchas gracias por haberlo hecho posible.
