This home and our hosts could not have been better. The home is a magical place to unwind or to launch your day trips from and Cabrils and Villisar are wonderful towns with amazing bakeries. Restraints and people. We could have stayed a month and been happy. Gemma and her sister Eva could not have been more helpful. We scheduled family yoga and for dinner to be prepared for us one night and it is already a cherished memory.

This villa was amazing. Great living living spaces, clean, private, well maintained. There is nothing negative about this beautiful villa. Our host was helpful in many ways and very kind. We would return anytime. We were a group of 11 adults. Everyone had enough space. If you plan to visit Barcelona during your stay, it’s about 30-35 minutes to the center of the city, and for us, we wish it would be a little bit closer.

Gemma has always been courteous and helpful prior to our booking through our check out. She cared deeply on making sure our needs were met and went above and beyond helping us with accommodations being from the United States. The pictures of the property do not do it justice! The house exceeded every expectation and was very comfortable. This property is a can’t miss- highly recommend and hope to come back again in the years to come. We did a few day trips into Barcelona and being in Cabrils on this property was easy to manage and a great relaxation away from the city. Very happy with this stay and everything was perfect.

I cannot speak highly enough about our stay with Eva, Gemma and Manel. Communication and assistance from the hosts before, during and after our stay has been incredible. Nothing was ever too much trouble and it made our extended weekend just so straightforward, even for the 19 guests we had. The villa itself was even more amazing than we expected, there are no amount of photos that could do it justice. It’s absolutely stunning. So much so that we’re thinking of returning next year for a big family holiday. I would not hesitate to recommend this place and these hosts to anybody, it was absolutely the most perfect weekend!

Gemma hosted my family, along with two other families, in her ancestral home the week of Thanksgiving. The home was a beautiful juxtaposition of medieval architecture with modern conveniences. The space was large and adequately situated for three families with 8 children, ranging from 13 to 1 years old. Knowing this in advance, Gemma pulled out basketballs and bowling pins for the children to use outside and prepared bedding, high chairs and toys for the younger children. The kitchen was incredible and outfitted for major parties and easily served our group. Prior to our arrival, Gemma helped us plan our Barcelona trip, suggesting sites to see and how to prepare (like what sites to book in advance and notes on climate changes in the mountains) She offered local restaurant recommendations and provided transportation information - even offering to accompany us to the train station to ensure we didn’t have any issues. We were interested in experiencing the local culture from our home as well and Gemma arranged for a wonderful yoga session and talented chef to come to the home. Both were incredible experiences and highly recommend both. Our chef, Victor, served a vast tapas spread the first evening and delighted us with fiduea on Thanksgiving. He shared his experiences with travel, his history and spoke to us about food throughout the meal prep which made it an interactive cultural experience as well. Our yoga instructor creatively engaged our children and incorporated fun partner-based positions that created a memorable bonding experience. Our kids played in the large garden space for hours and lounged on the outside deck. We have amazing memories of sharing Thanksgiving on the large outside patio under cafe lights. The home has access to public transportation which my husband rode easily into the city, and is about a 30 minute drive into Barcelona. We visited Tibidabo, Montserrat and many Barcelona city attractions while there with ease. Everything was perfect about the home and our host displayed a genuine joy in hosting us. We highly highly recommend to anyone visiting the area!

We booked Gemma’s villa for my hen do and we cannot fault it at all. The best thing by far about this property though is the incredible Gemma! She is a host that truly goes above and beyond! The little touches like makeup remover in all the bathrooms, running us to the shops and even getting us a welcome drink on arrival! The pictures do not do this property justice! We will most definitely be back! Thank you so much!

Wonderful time celebrating with my husband, 3 kids, spouses and 6 grandkids. House was so spacious and so well equipped. Had many meals at home because house was so comfortable but there were some great restaurants nearby. Gemma was a wonderful host and went way above her duties. Wonderful resource for suggestions, ideas, recommendations. And the chapel on the property is really special. Highly recommend.

This was an amazing and very spacious property and just perfect for our group of 13. Gemma was the most helpful and friendly host who went above and beyond to help with making our stay very relaxing. Having a car would be beneficial due to the location but not necessary as some public transport is available. Lots of fans are available but some air conditioning would definitely help to make it more comfortable, especially in the height of summer. We had a fantastic time and Gemma and her husband were so welcoming.

This place is the perfect place to stay on with a large family as ours (14 people). The house is awesom and the landlord is the one most helpful I have ever come across. Gemma, you are a saint!!!👏😍

Wow, what an amazing property! I spend a lot of time reading reviews to ensure a wonderful traveling stay and experience, and this property didn't disappoint!! It is beautiful, spacious, and inviting! It also perfectly blends the history and antiquity of the architecture with modern elements. We fully enjoyed all of the outdoor spaces including hammocks, couches, cushions, dining tables, and, of course, the pool! Furthermore, I must call out how incredibly welcoming and helpful the property owner and her family are!! They offered a robust variety of traveling tips, activities, restaurants, beaches and more. They answered all of my questions (and I had a lot!) in a very timely and friendly manner. I highly recommend this property for families as there is so much room to spread out and enjoy! I also want to recommend renting a car. It was helpful to have some cars to visit the nearby towns, beaches, grocery store and even explore around the coast. Thank you for welcoming us at your property! I only wish we could stay longer!

The villa is absolutely beautiful, and the photos don’t quite do it justice. There is so much space, not only bedrooms but there are a number of common areas/lounge space. The kitchen is very modern and very well equipped so perfect for cooking for a large group. The pool is just beautiful and there is a great space around it for Lounging in the sun or playing games. I just can’t express how amazing the host Gemma is!! She was so unbelievably helpful from the minute we booked and nothing was ever a problem for her and she really made us feel at home at this beautiful villa. She recommended places for us to visit, places to eat, helped us organise taxis, and even helped arrange for a food shop to be delivered for our arrival which was so helpful with there being such a big group of us. Would 100% recommend this accommodation to large groups and we will likely return in the future.

We had a great time (16 ladies) in the villa. The pool area was lovely, the house even more so. Would recommend for groups looking for some quiet time!

WOW were our first thoughts when having a tour of the villa upon arrival. The host Gemma went above and beyond any hosts we have ever met before. We are a group of aged 40 plus women who travel every year for a weekend away and this year we celebrated a 50th Birthday Celebration. Gemma arranged for a local restaurant to deliver Tapas one evening, which we can highly recommend and were the best Tapas we had all weekend! A yoga session was also arranged and again very well organised and communication was perfect! Yoga highly recommended also and very relaxing start to our day. The villa itself has the character and charm of an old property and also has all the facilities you could wish for for modern day living. Absolutely stunning spacious property with beautiful pool area. Gemma we loved it! Thank you so much for all your help prior to our stay and whilst we were there!

Our stay was great both the property and the host were amazing. The villa is stunning and is even nicer than the pictures on the website. Gemma was a wonderful host and both she and her husband went the extra mile to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The villa is in a lovely part of Cabrils and it is very easier to get to both the local beach and Barcelona from the property. The villa is lovely, well equipped, with plenty of outside space. It is also very safe for you her kids and we were able to let our kids roam around the villa exploring to their hearts content. I would totally recommend this property we had a wonderful time. Thanks Gemma.

15 of us came to stay at the villa for a few days. I was blown away by the host, Gemma, who really went out of her way to ensure that we had the most fantastic stay. The property was 10/10 - clean, big, amazing pool, and the photos online just don’t do it justice! Gemma was in touch to help organise various activities for the group, including a BBQ on the first night where a chef came to cook for us. We also had a group yoga class on Saturday morning which was really fun. The village of Cabrils is quiet, clean and picturesque. I would 100% return and would highly recommend the property to groups of up to 17. Thank you Gemma, you are the best!

We could not have found a better place to stay! It was still close to Barcelona and all the northern beaches. The property was like being swept back in time. We use VRBO all the time and this was an absolutely perfect stay in every way - perfect is very rare.. The home is enormous with all the modern features you could want. There is a pool and hammocks. A 100 yr old church (as part of the property). All in Spanish charmMy family could not have experienced the Spanish culture so well then as to have stayed here.

Such a beautiful villa which has everything you need for a perfect stay! The bedrooms were beautifully decorated and super comfortable. The rest of the villa was just as impressive - a well equipped kitchen, dining room, tv room, yoga room and an amazing veranda and pool area. Gemma, the host, was incredibly helpful and always available to help / answer questions etc - she made our stay all the more enjoyable. We had such a wonderful stay and will definitely be back!

Gemma is such an incredible person! She goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is as amazing as the property :). She can be hands off and let you just enjoy the house (which has so much room - even a yoga room! - a pool that feels like you're swimming in a castle! and a professional kitchen!) or she can plan the whole time! We were a family of 14 celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary. She set us up with wine tasting, places to visit, a beachside restaurant (called a chiringuito), a family yoga session, and two nights of caterers coming in to cook for us. It was amazing to say the least and a great way to finish our trip to Europe. There is even a little chapel if you want to host a wedding or a renewal of vows. You will not be disappointed! Muchas gracias Gemma! Nos gustó todo muchisimo y espero que podamos volver un día! O que nos vemos en estados unidos! Un beso grande!
