Holiday cottages in Massanes

We spent 4 days with the family at the house. The house corresponds to the photos: it is large, spacious and bright, with comfortable beds and a well-kept garden. The football area, swimming pool, billiards and ping-pong is a plus if you go with teenagers. Thanks for the welcome detail and being able to use the barbecue and paddle courts. In Breda there are shops and supermarkets nearby and the area is quiet. But there are certain things to improve. First, not having a key for the door and the entrance gate gives a lot of insecurity, especially at night (as much as it can only be opened with a code, at least a lock would be good). Second, the municipal door-to-door system (without containers on the street) for recycling and selective waste collection in Breda is totally incompatible with a holiday rental of days. The property/Naturaki, in addition to encouraging recycling and reminding to leave the house clean (there is a deposit), must provide a solution for the last day, it is not an option for the tenant to take the accumulated garbage in their car (where?) or distribute it in the park/sidewalk bins. I would also advise having a large trash bin to leave the different already full and closed recycling bags and not have them accumulated in the garden (where the area fills with flies, ants and wasps). Third: the pool is quite large for being private, but from the second day the water was increasingly murky, despite the filtration system and passing the net. Fourth: the rooms were hot at night, fans were missed; in the suite room there is air conditioning but it is already a few years old and is quite noisy. There are mosquito nets on all windows, but there is no air circulation and at 6 light already comes in. And finally, possibly being the end of the season, the upholstery of the living room sofa was quite dirty; covers or quilts to cover the sofa, for hygiene, would have been appreciated. Houses of this type have their own wear and tear that can be understood but these details can compensate for the quality and price that is supposed to be paid for them.

Homeowners’ response: Thank you very much, Mikel, for sharing such a detailed evaluation of your stay. We are pleased to know that you enjoyed the facilities and the welcome detail. We take note of your comments about security, waste management, pool cleaning, room ventilation, and the condition of the sofa. We will review these issues to improve our guests' experience. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your suggestions to help us improve.

Fantastic 2-week stay at Cal Bolet with 2 families (4 adults, 4 children). The house is large, clean, well equipped and has an amazing garden in the middle of the forest. Monica was extremely attentive and helpful. Note on access: Access requires driving about 700m on an unpaved road. It is feasible with a normal car driving carefully, although SUVs have it easier and low sports cars should be cautious. We would love to come back!

The truth is that the experience has been very good, comfort, cleanliness and a good welcome with the assortment of cold cuts. Thank you.

Very well conditioned house and fantastic surroundings.

Very pleasant weekend stay in a very beautiful and quiet environment. The house is very large and with all the comforts. Beautiful garden and porch. Although we have been very well and the house is spectacular, it would need a bit of maintenance.

Homeowners’ response: Thank you, Rosa, for sharing your positive experience. We are glad to know you enjoyed the surroundings and the amenities of the house. We take note of your comment about maintenance and will review it to ensure everything is in the best condition.

We have been celebrating an 85th family anniversary. An excellent house, very well conditioned, clean, nothing is missing. Neus has been an unbeatable hostess who made us feel at home right away. Everything perfect. We will surely return.
