Delightful villa with a great view of Barcelona.
The villa: a wonderful, funky house, with creaky shutters and clunky doors. The kitchen is well equipped with crockery, pots, and pans. Our group comprised six adults, but this villa would be a great place for larger groups. There’s plenty to do with an outdoor pool, ping pong table, games, toys and the amazing view.
The location: The villa is in a lovely residential area close to a community park. The view across the valley and the city is fantastic. The villa is not too far from Barcelona city centre and the airport. Ideally, you need a vehicle to get to and from the villa.
The service: the following basics were missing:
- Essential supplies: we arrived to find there was barely any toilet paper and the soap dispensers were empty in two of the bathrooms. There was no facial tissue, no laundry detergent, and no oil for cooking. Salt and pepper shakers were empty. In such a lovely villa, we were surprised and disappointed these basics had been overlooked.
- Linens: the rental agency charged extra for bedsheets and towels, an extra cost that we didn't expect. Two of the towels were stained.
- Pillows: there was one pillow per person and they did not have much filling left. A few extra pillows would be a nice touch.
Overall we loved the villa! However, we were disappointed by the lack of basics, which would have cost only a few euros to supply and would have made our stay comfortable.
