A great location for a relaxing holiday

On arrival, after driving up from girona airport, we were shown around by the owner, who was just finishing a holiday. The villa is in a gated complex and was well described on the website. The pool (with slide!) was wonderful and kept the children amused for the duration - it was cleaned twice a week. There is a massive gas barbeque, which we used most nights - the nearest shps at Les Capellans are about a kilometre away, which I cycled or drove to most mornings to pick up warm croissants and pain au chocolat - there is also a fish shop, butcher, greengrocer, minimarket, restaurants and takeaways. The kitchen was well appointed, so no difficulty with the cooking, and the dishwasher made cleaning up less onerous. The whole villa was clean and well maintained. The nearest beach was a leisurely twenty minute walk - although we thought the beach just beyond les capellans was sandier and ended up driving there most afternoons after our first day - there are parasols, beach chairs and the like at the villa, which we threw in the back of the car. We also visited the aqualand water park a couple of times (fun, but very busy), which is literally round the corner, no need to drive. On changeover day, our flight was late in the evening, but the owners were happy for us to leave our suitcases in the garage and take the chairs for a day at the beach. Overall, a really relaxing holiday for three generations of our family and one we could heartily recommend.
