María IsabelCaseta de fusta - With the family

Fantastic stay in a super equipped house with all the comforts

The house is super practical, with many things to have a good time, just a few minutes from Banyoles and as shown in the photos. The house of our dreams? The owner gave us good restaurant recommendations and where to buy take-away food. As the only suggestions, and nothing critical: the strict schedule to take out the garbage, although the owners provide you with solutions, if you need it. Not all windows have shutters and they were dusty. On the other hand, some doors/balconies that were not working well require maintenance, and according to my children, the pool table was a bit unbalanced. These are things that can easily be fixed for a 10 out of 10 stay and house.

Naturaki respond: We are very pleased to know that you liked the house and that our recommendations were useful to you. We appreciate that you have made us aware of some details that required attention to improve the future experience of our guests. We hope you can return soon to enjoy an even better stay!.

LuisMas Xargay - With friends

A very well-prepared and well-maintained house

Seven fantastic days at Mas Xargay. The house is extremely well-prepared. Various areas all very well equipped. The barbecue area is superb. Everything is very clean. Pere, the owner, is always available and very friendly. The only area for improvement is the WiFi, which does not reach all points of the house (sometimes this is a good thing...).

Naturaki respond: We are very pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay at Mas Xargay so much, Luis. We appreciate your comment about the WiFi and will work to improve coverage throughout the house. Thanks for highlighting the cleanliness and the received treatment.

TeresaMas Frigola - With the family

Ideal for disconnecting with family

We have been three families with children for a week and we have been super comfortable. Spacious rooms, each with its own bathroom. Playground and space to play. The pool is fenced so it is safe. Jaume and his family are very friendly and willing to help in everything that was in their hands. From the house you can reach the beach in half an hour and Banyoles lake in 15 min. Since it is a livestock area there are many flies and mosquitoes but it is an inevitable thing and there are mosquito nets on all windows.

Naturaki respond: We are very pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay. We are glad that the mosquito nets have helped. We hope you can return very soon and continue to enjoy the surroundings and our welcome.
