House on a hill
The house is on a hill with a beautiful view. Lots of shared sace that also allows alone time if needed or desired. Easy walk into town for groceries or dinner. The pool is gorgeous but was a little too cold for us.

Villa in beautiful position but not made welcome
In a perfect position overlooking the sea and Cadaques on one side, the mountains on the other. Kitchen well equipped for family cooking (note to owner that the coffee filter parts are from different machines so don’t fit together). Aircon in 3 bedrooms excellent. Third bedroom reached by outside door. However….we had good communication with the owner Ruth via Vrbo website throughout the time until arrival. On the day of arrival Ruth stopped reading our messages about time of arrival. We then had to communicate via a local agent who was brusque and abrupt with us. By WhatsApp I was told off for not arriving when she thought we would be there (I had messaged Ruth with our precise arrival time). We had been sent a key box code and let ourselves in. The local agent arrived a couple of hours later. There was no welcome at all. Not even a bottle of cold water in the fridge. There was no cooking oil-when I asked about cooking oil the agent told me “you went to a supermarket you should have bought some”. There was no soap for washing hands in any of the bathrooms-when I asked about hand soap the agent said “it’s not a hotel”. I then stopped asking any further questions as it just resulted in an unpleasant reply. When I asked for a change of sheets midstay (we were there for 8 nights) they were supplied and we changed them ourselves. We did enjoy our stay, the terraces were fabulous to sit and eat on. The pool was very clean and incredibly private. It’s just that we rent houses at home and abroad probably 6 or so times a year and are used to a warm welcome, hand soap and sufficient cooking oil for the first night at least. Improve these points and it’s a perfect stay. We did not receive any check out instructions so just left the key in the key box.

Clean, modern, large house
It a well taken care of place. It is very clean and everything worked for us. The place is large compared to European standards and has everything you would need. We very much enjoyed our stay. thanks

Yes, it’s great.
To echo some of the other reviews, your primary regret about staying at this house is that your stay will be too short. The house is located at the top of a dead end street overlooking the picturesque town of Cadaques. When you open the front door, just drop your bags and walk through the house onto the patio and drink in the view. Oh, that view. It is spectacular and memorable. We loved having breakfast on the patio, dinner on the patio, late night cocktails on the patio...you get the idea. The house is very comfortable - open concept with kitchen and dining table adjacent to each other, down a few steps to the sizable living area with couches and a big tv (plenty of channels in multiple languages). Large glass doors open out to the patio. Did I mention the patio? We used two of the three bedrooms, didn’t use the bedroom that can only be accessed by going outside and down the stairs (it’s ok, that bedroom is nice too). Our visit was in early October...the weather was still nice (72F/22C daytime temperature), so a number of the bars, shops and restaurants were still open...I’m guessing quite a few stay open year round. We enjoyed drinks at Maritim Bar and Bola Nit, had delicious pizza at Raviyu, but also made epic meals in the kitchen at the house. There are a few small grocery stores in Cadaques, we bought most of our groceries at a larger Carrefour market in Roses on the way to Cadaques. BTW, the drive over the mountain to get to Cadaques is fun, the road is narrow and winding so go easy and enjoy the view. We did a tour/tasting at Celler Martin Faixo, just a 15 minute drive from the house...very fun and informative. Definitely go to the Dali house in Cadaques as well, a fascinating look into one of the most important artists of the 20th century. Lunch at the restaurant at the top of Cap de Creus was good too, and the view of course is fantastic. Just a few minor items to note: the house was missing a few necessities...we had to buy hand soap and paper towels at one of the small markets in town. The WiFi speed is adequate but doesn’t work well in the bedrooms, probably because the walls are so thick, maybe a WiFi repeater in the house would help. But all in all, you definitely want to stay here. It’s not easy to get to Cadaques. You’ll consider it a secret you may not want to share with other people, and you’ll want to return. And this is a lovely house to be the base for your visit.

Beautiful house amazing views
This is a fabulous property, it has everything - view - pool - space - light and is dog friendly. Loved our week here and will return to beautiful Cadaqués and it’s marvellous restaurants soon. The home is so well equipped and comfortable, that it was very easy to spend time there.

Fabulous house with great amenities and perfect location
We were a group of friends meeting at cadaques for a reunion. This house was the perfect place. It was exactly as described on the listing. We loved the different areas of the house - where we could hang out together at different times of the day. The completely secluded poolside with views of the surrounding hills, the other outside with a dining area and a lounging area offering views of the bay and the inside space to hangout when it gets too hot or cold outside! I recommend this place for a large family or a group of friends and would love to return here again. The town centre is a short 10mins walk away. The only thing to remember is that the house is on a hill and walking back up can be a challenge for some people. With respect to booking and communication, Ruth was very efficient and provided us with all the required information.

A small piece of heaven
We were looking for a peaceful end to our month-long trip to Spain, something near the Mediterranean with a laid back vibe. I was a tad worried. Everything I saw on the Costa Brava had been wrecked by high rise buildings and tacky shops. What I wanted was what I had seen on calendars: white houses, blue skies, sparkling seas, tan people wearing bikinis, postcard stuff. Cadaques was precisely that, and Ruth's home gave us the ability to live our postcard dream even if just for a few days. The pictures give you a good taste of what you are going to get. The house is a wide-open space with windows on all sides. The front deck had plenty of sun for those who wanted it (me and my two daughters), and shade for those who didn't (my husband). The furniture is great looking and comfortable. All of us took long naps every afternoon. The pool on the back of the house is more spectacular than the pictures. The mountains rise dramatically behind it, and with no further development (the house is on a dead-end street), the back patio made for a wonderfully private place to drink coffee in the morning and stargaze at night. Honestly, we could have been in two different locals had we been blindfolded. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of everything for larger parties. The bedrooms and bathrooms are of a good size. The AC was much appreciated. Although you are on the sea with a constant breeze does not mean it doesn't get hot, which it was. There are bikes, beach chairs, BBQs to use if you so desire. The town is a 5-10 min. walk down the hill. The house was spotless, and communication with Ruth was quick and easy. The only thing I would change is how long we stayed. Three nights was not enough. Thank you, Ruth, for sharing your lovely home. Hopefully, someday we can return.

Great Stay
We stayed for 4 nights in mid June 2019 and could not have been happier...We spent mornings and afternoons in the town most days, and then early evenings by the pool with dinner on front or back terrace...Cadaquez itself was great and we felt like we could have spent a week and didn't want to leave after 4 days...Hope to return some day...
