Nice view from the villa. Well equipped kitchen and house e.g. spices, olive oil and candles that we used outside in the evening. Air condition was nice to have. The beds need to be replaced. Overall a very nice villa and L’Escala was a positive experience with many things to see, many restaurants. The closest beach was a very beautiful sand beach.

Lovely home with a distant view of the ocean, we had several beautiful beaches to choose from, excellent Restaurantes and shopping in addition to local attractions. We were warmly welcomed, and the property manager quickly responded to our questions and one non- issue that arose. Loved the home and the town, didn’t know much about how charming the town and beach really was. Spent time in Barcelona, and Drove north to Caduceus, and went to several beach cities. L’Escala was by far the most enjoyable. The house and pool were excellent, and we could not have asked for anything to change. Excellent vacation home.

Nice clean swimming pool with toys to be used by the kids to play with. We were very fortunate with the weather in October so the pool was used frequently. You could say the interior is a bit outdated as mentioned earlier and could use an upgrade, but thats personal. We thought it was a nice family house and we felt really at home. Just a 15 minute walk from the beach of cala montgo. The surroundings are beautifull. Visited the archeological site in l'escala which is really recommended. Just 45 minutes from the beautifull town Girona. We will love to come back someday!

Spend 3 weeks at the villa Marcopolo, absolutely loved the pool, especially the children, who could not get enough of it.. Hardly were indoors, except to cool down a bit when it was > 37C for a few days, happy with the aircon. The villa has everything one needs, to relax and enjoy, the area the villa is located in is really quiet and green. Used the BBQ a lot and dined at lovely, reasonably priced restaurants in L'Escala, which is a lovely old village. Very nice beaches nearby and a lot of nice places to visit in the Emporda area. Would certainly like to come back to this spot!
