Holiday cottages in Vallgorguina

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.

Mas Casanovas is very well equipped and located in a very green natural setting, close to the town of Argentona and 30 minutes from the center of Barcelona. We spent a week there with 16 adults and we were perfectly satisfied with this house.

The house is very cool and we have been very comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped, with everything you might need. We really enjoyed the pool area and the games room. As an improvement, I would suggest that all rooms have a fan and that at least, in the dining room next to the kitchen, there is air conditioning (we have been during a heat wave and the fans have not been enough). The owners are very attentive and pleasant.

Homeowners’ response: Thank you very much, Mireia, for your comment. We are glad to know that you enjoyed the house and its facilities. We take note of your suggestions to improve ventilation and cooling, especially during heat waves. We are pleased that your stay was so positive and we hope to see you again soon!.

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

The house is splendid, with beautiful furniture inside, very comfortable while maintaining traditional features. The garden and pool were amazing, we enjoyed the barbecue and paella kitchen, as well as the billiards and the cellar. It was the perfect place for our group of 16 friends: quiet, serene and with beautiful views of the green mountains. In addition, it is very close to supermarkets and other services. The only drawback was the garbage collection at the end: since the usual place was closed, we had to drive 40 minutes round trip. However, this did not detract from the wonderful experience we had. The host was very nice and helpful, easy to communicate with through Whatsapp for anything we needed. We hope to return!.

Homeowners’ response: We are very pleased to know that you enjoyed the house so much and its facilities. We take note on the garbage collection issue and will review how to improve it for the future. It will be a pleasure to welcome you again, and we look forward to your next stay!.

We had an incredible time at Mas Casanovas. We were 4 families with 2 children each and we felt as if we were living in a castle and very comfortable. Many rooms, many with their own bathroom, many common spaces: living room, dining room, room with fireplace, billiard room. Ample outdoor space and pool for the children to run and play and for the adults to relax. The owners were almost invisible but very helpful whenever we had any problem or question. Everyone in our group felt that we were lucky to be in such a large and beautiful house and we wanted to meet again there. In addition, it is not far from Barcelona, the sea is also easy to reach.
