About this property
Happiness Can Be a Place
Villa Can Duarry is much more than an exclusive property: it is the setting for a beautiful story of family love that began in the 1960s and remains alive within its walls today. Its origins date back to Juan Duarry Serra, a businessman from Barcelona who, following the tragic loss of his eldest daughter and son-in-law in a 1954 plane crash, decided to build a magical place to gather his family once again and restore their joy. Thus, this oasis was born.
Conceived from its very first brick as a summer retreat and an eternal symbol of family unity. Today, we open its doors so that you and your loved ones can continue this tradition of happiness.
