Charming Villas Catalonia

Fantastic experience: Richard is a superstar! We had the pleasure to witness first hand his professionalism, incredible knowledge of the Begur region and of the villas he represents. He was extremely helpful and went out of his way to find a villa for our large group of 3 families and our particular needs for our daughter who's in a wheelchair. This service and attention to detail isn't common and Richard is truly a gem. Charming Villas has an abundance of awesome vacation homes and with Richard's help he narrowed it down to our needs and provided detailed videos and information to make our choices a breeze. I highly recommend all he has to offer - you will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: We made a relativley last minute decision to plan a full family trip to Spain and I felt entirely unsure about how to find an appropriate house. I am so grateful we found Charming Villas. I sent an inquiry email and Richard responded right away with a number of options and more importantly, extremely helpful information about Costa Brava that helped us choose which one would work best for the family. Then Sara and Richard made the whole reservation, booking, check in, and check out process straightforward, transparent, and easy. We had an amazing time in Begur thanks to them!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience working with Charming Villas in Catalonia. They provided a wonderful concierge experience helping us to book, chefs, boat trips, etc.. Our group consisted of extended family ages 5-75 and everyone had an amazing time.

Fantastic experience: What a fantastic time we had! A view to a kill, luxurious furnishings of the villa and excellent service. We've rented a house through Charming Villas several times now. Very enjoyable for the higher segment!

Fantastic experience: Our group of 9 had an incredible week in Costa Brava. Villa Roja was absolutely stunning with breathtaking views. Richard and especially Sam went out of their way to make sure we had an experience of a lifetime. We would all recommend using this company.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Richard and Sara were attentive to all our needs. The house worked out just as we expected.

Fantastic experience: We have booked multiple stays with Charming Villas Catalonia and every single stay has been perfect! Richard, Sara and the hospitality team are so focused on delivering the best experience that one knows from the first contact that holidays will be amazing. We do have a lot of customised needs when travelling with our whole family (elderly, children, youngsters, dogs, remote work….) and they always help us find a great villa to stay whether inland or by the sea. The villas offered are so unique, I wish i can visit each of them at least once…. But in fact we already have the one we love going since fits all our needs and we feel home. Thanks Charming Villas Catalonia for helping us to create great memories and unforgettable moments of family and friends vacations.

Fantastic experience: We have been using Charming Villas for years and have never been disappointed. We rented Villa Cristina for the week leading up to my son's wedding. It was wonderful. Big rooms, very comfortable, fantastic garden where we hosted a family dinner for 60 people and a brilliant resident caretaker. It comes with housekeeping which is an added bonus. The pool is big and the villa is located in a perfect place to explore the area. The beach is a ten minute drive away as are many great restaurants. Richard and Sara are always on hand to help and whatever villa you rent from them you can be sure is of the highest quality. We look forward to our next visit.

Fantastic experience: We had a great time at Villa Allegria in Cadaques, organized by Charming Villas. They were very helpful during the entire stay. Thank you all for the good service.

Fantastic experience: Charming Villas Catalonia was recommended to me by a friend who had used them previously for a lovely villa that they rented one summer. So, I used them as well for a different villa but in the same area as my friend, and the team at Charming Villas Catalonia were very professional, responsive and provided all the necessary information required to rent the villa and ensure a wonderful stay. The villa we rented was true to its description on the website.

Fantastic experience: Richard and his team at Charming Villas were exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable about both the area and all their villas. They helped us chose the perfect villa for our extended family stay, it was an excellent choice as we had a wheelchair user in our party. We would definitely recommend Charming Villas and look forward to staying in Aiguablava again.

Fantastic experience: We stayed in a stunning villa thanks to Charming Villas Catalonia. The selection of villas was amazing and the attention Richard and his team dedicated to us in the lead up to our visit was impressive. We booked restaurants and bikes before arriving and were given the very best information on the area. Would highly recommend for a memorable and very special stay in the Costa Brava region.

Fantastic experience: Richard and team are the best! We turn to them yearly and always appreciate their help and support in the Costa Brava - especially the fantastic homes they represent.

Fantastic experience: We had a very good time at Villa Llevant. Thank you for very good service.

Fantastic experience: And amazing Villa and fantastic hosts and close to everything that you could possibly need beach restaurants supermarket. You need a car because if you have small children whilst it’s a short walk to the beach to walk back from the beach is up a very steep hill.

Fantastic experience: We had the best vacation facilitated by charming villas. Richard and Sara were helpful start to finish. Prior to booking we had questions about the house and property which they answered promptly. And when we had arrival day travel issues, we were able to arrive one day early, due to prompt and efficient communication between Charming Villas and the property owner. And a highlight certainly was a glass of chilled Cava on arrival. The house, grounds, and pool were impeccable. During our stay, Richard and Sara provided recommendations regarding bike rentals, activities, secret beaches, etc. I give my highest level of recommendation, and we hope to book again next summer

Fantastic experience: Spectacular Villa! Beautiful views, great pool. Enjoyed being there immensely.

Fantastic experience: Our group of 16 friends just stayed at Sa Vista in Port Lligat just outside Cadaques and could not have found a more idyllic place to spend our week together. The villa is beautiful and well appointed, with 8 bedrooms, a large, modern, fully -equipped kitchen, and common areas large enough to comfortably accommodate our group both inside and outside the house. The villa has a very large infinity pool with gorgeous views of the Cadaques harbor that was the perfect place to spend lazy afternoons. The house is also a 5-minute walk from the beach so we were able go back and forth between the beach and the pool. Cadaques, a picturesque, seaside town that is a 20-minute walk or 10-minute drive from the house, is filled with fun restaurants, bakeries and shops that are definitely worth a visit. Richard Calvin got us a reservation at a wonderful restaurant in Cadeques called Compartir that was a particular highlight of our week. There are also a few casual restaurants a short walk from the house by the beach that we really enjoyed. The villa comes with daily housekeeping which was a great amenity to have. Although we spent most of our time in the area close to the villa, we also took some day trips to Girona and Figueres. Richard connected us with a terrific tour guide for our day in Girona. The Charming Villas website has numerous articles filled with information about the Costa Brava and the different activities available there. And Richard and his team could not have been more helpful in making recommendations and arrangements for us. Given the size of our group, we needed to reserve activities and restaurants well in advance, especially since we were visiting the Costa Brava during prime vacation time. Charming Villas advised us on what we needed to do when and were able to make reservations for us that we probably could not have obtained on our own. Charming Villas did everything from helping us select the best house for our needs to making suggestions and reservations for activities (a chartered boat trip on the Sant Isidre was one of our favorite activities of our trip), helping us find a chef to prepare our meals, connecting us with tour guides, reserving golf tee times at nearby courses, and arranging for transportation as needed for our group. Their knowledge of the Costa Brava (they live locally) and connections there ensured that we had an absolutely amazing trip, which concluded on our final full day with lunch at El Cellar de Can Roca, the world-renown three-star Michelin restaurant in Girona. Richard not only obtained a reservation for us, he arranged for the restaurant to give us a tour of the kitchen and the wine cellar. The meal was an experience of a lifetime that we will never forget. We couldn't recommend Charming Villas more highly and we recommend their services to anyone looking to vacation on the Costa Brava or in Barcelona. Thank you to Richard, Sara and Marc for helping to design and facilitate a truly perfect, memorable vacation.

Fantastic experience: Great company, very reliable and responsive. Very beautiful properties...

Fantastic experience: We have had an excellent experience with Charming Villas, Richard and his team did exactly as "it said on the tin". Assistance in choosing a villa was second to none, their knowledge of the villas and location was superb and their advise was open and honest. Their meet and greet team were extremely friendly and helpful, and Villa Aiguablave in Begur was even better than advertised! We are already starting to plan for next summer, with Charming!

Fantastic experience: Villa Amura was the perfect vacation. You will NOT be disappointed. The house was incredibly comfortable and truly stunning with wonderful views and everything we needed. If the perfect house wasn't enough, Richard and his team at Charming Villas made everything easy and comfortable - from having food prepared upon arrival per our request to connections to excellent airport transfers, and all of the information we needed to explore the area. We will be returning!

Fantastic experience: Richard and Sara were so responsive in helping us find exactly what we were looking for on the Costa Brava. Our apartment and time in Cadaques were magical. Richard and our landlord both connected us to cars and guides and restaurants and hiking so that we felt more knowledgable about the town than we could ever have been on our own. We will be back! Huge thanks.

Fantastic experience: Richard and the entire Charming Villas team helped us find the perfect spot for a fantastic birthday getaway for six great friends. One we arrived, they made sure we had everything we needed, helped arrange dinners and outings and made sure our vacation was exactly what we wanted. We’d definitely work with Charming Villas to plan our next trip to Spain.

Fantastic experience: The villas was beautiful. Kitchen was well stocked. View was amazing. We had a great time. The walk to Cadaques is a difficult one for anyone who may be a bit older or not used to walking. The hills are steep. Good shoes required. The town is one one side of the "mountain hill" and the villa is on the other. The management was very helpful and available for any questions. I had boxes shipped from Amazon to the villa ahead of our stay and they were all waiting for me there when I arrived ...as were the grocheries I ordered in advance. We stayed at Sa Vista.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience with Richard and his team. The house was perfect and exactly as advertised and the local knowledge of the region invaluable. Heartily recommend Charming Villas as a top option in the region.

Fantastic experience: I booked via Charming Villas Catalonia for my small team retreat in the Begur region. Richard and the team were fast to respond. Were willing to answer questions of all types and provided alternative contacts if they knew someone else that would have a better answer. I would definitely go through the Charming Villas Catalonia team again. (The house was fantastic too)

Fantastic experience: Wonderful personal service from Richard, laying out a range of options. He's got a deep knowledge of the area and the properties and will work with you with your budget to get the right fit.

Fantastic experience: We stayed at villa Aiguablava in October and we were very happy with the service we received. The villa was equipped with everything we needed and we booked yoga classes with Bee that really added to our stay. We recommend to confirm regarding pool heating when relevant. The staff of charming villas were very available to assist us in any question we had and responded swiftly.

Fantastic experience: I was so happy to find Charming Villas Catalonia for a late Sept ‘22 trip. It was a delight to work with Richard and Sara. Not only did we find a wonderful villa, but they helped with car transfers from the train station to the villa and also arranged our rental car. Everyone we interacted with was lovely and knowledgeable. Richard also provided excellent local information. My son and I had a fantastic and very memorable trip. I would absolutely book through Charming Villas again.

Fantastic experience: CVC are an excellent company who arrange lettings of beautiful villas. They are very professional and courteous. Nothing is too much trouble. We have known them since 2015 when they were our agent for letting out our apartment. Last summer, 2021, we stayed in a beautiful high end villa. Throughout everything has been very good.

Fantastic experience: We had great holidays at the Costa Brava in 2021 and 2022. The two houses that we found through Charming Villas Catalonia were beautiful. Thank you Richard and Sara for your perfect service!

Fantastic experience: Although this review is long overdue, a few words to describe the fantastic holiday we’ve had through Charming. We had been in the region for a number of times and usually stayed in hotels, however with an addition to out family we decided to book a villa. What a great experience! Richard and his team were very helpful in providing all the info we asked before our arrival, check-in went seamless and the villa was clean and exactly as pictured on the website, equipped with all the amenities we could wish for. We had a great week enjoying all the little beaches and restaurants in the region. We’ll certainly book again!

Fantastic experience: Sara y Richard son súper profesionales y dedicados al éxito de este negocio. Servicio 10 puntos!

Fantastic experience: Charming Villas were an excellent company to work with. They were helpful and responsive throughout the process from finding/advising about the right villa for us through to sorting out any queries or issues that arose . I particularly appreciated their support when one of our party needed medical treatment. I would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Quick and very professional service. Good understanding of customers needs.

Fantastic experience: We stayed in 2 of Charming Villas properties this summer, and they were both fantastic. The CV team was incredibly knowledgable and helpful as we planned our trip, and continued to provide advice and local guidance while we were in Catalonia. The whole team was absolutely wonderful to work with and I would use them again without hesitation!

Fantastic experience: We rented a villa through this agency and everything ran very smoothly. All the admin was very easy and clear and we had a very helpful local contact for any issues or questions we had. I would book through them again. The villa we rented was also of a very good quality and as expected from the website.

Fantastic experience: We were on the hunt for a unique holiday destination for our extended family of 20 (with the complex requirements from such a large group)and working with Richard and his team at Charming Villas was really a pleasure. Not only did they find us an exceptional villa, but they made sure every details was taken care of for a truly relaxing week. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: We rent a large house through Charming Villas and we are very happy with the service and how Charming Villas has helped us before, during and after the stay in the house we rented. This was not our first stay at Costa Brava, but we have at our earlier ten stays not received this high level of service. No doubt that we will ask CV for advice next time we return to Catalonia.

Fantastic experience: Richard and Sara are fantastic. The options of villas was great and the final selection was absolutely perfect. Supported on everything from cleaners to chefs to boats and made the whole experience so easy and stress free. Couldn't recommend highly enough. Will be using for all future Catalonian holidays :

Fantastic experience: We had a fabulous two week stay at Villa Port des Pi. Sa Riera is a perfect spot - lovely quiet beach, even in high season, with two fabulous restaurants and the villa is superb. There is also a small supermarket a short walk away which is handy when you're self catering. Everything was new and top quality. The views are amazing and the fit out of the villa is exceptional. Richard and the team at Charming Villas were super friendly and went out of their way to make sure our holiday was perfect.

Fantastic experience: We visited Villa Aiguablava in Begur along Costa Brava in late April. It was an amazing house with the most incredible views. Situated with a short walk down the hill to the beach and close proximity to the town of Begur, the villa offered plenty for us to do. The house was well-stocked for lunches or dinners in and even a pizza oven! The kids (and adults) enjoyed the sauna and pool. Everything felt very luxurious. We are already planning a return trip.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service from Richard, Sara and the lovely Liz at Mas Muneer. Booking with Charming Village has been a secure way to get good service and great prices. 100% recommended. Will book with them in the following holidays break.

Fantastic experience: Richard and Sara were simply terrific from start to finish. They patiently helped me find the right home for my family and four others. Whether we had questions about vaccination protocols (we were coming from New York) or local sites and/or help (e.g., finding a reasonably priced local chef, boat tours), they did not hesitate to make the proper introductions. Responsive, friendly and competent to a fault - truly. Needless to say, I cannot recommend them highly enough and would not hesitate to call upon their services again

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality We had a great holiday in Villa Begur, which turned out to be even more beautifull than the pictures on the website. The upfront communication and welcome on site was excellent, very professional and kind. We'll certainly use Charming Villas Catalonia in the future and recommend their services.

Fantastic experience: If you plan a stay at the Costa Brava with a bigger family or group Charming Villas Catalonia (Ricjard and Sara) is definitive the best choice. Handpicked extraordinary houses, a personal and always quick responding team. You get assistance at the selection and right choice of houses/villas amd a lot of personal support regarding all extra activities. Also payment and booking is very professional and secure. We always would recommend Charming Villas Catalonia if you want to find something special beside offers you find everywhere

Fantastic experience: We booked our amazing villa through Charming Villas. The service and advice received was first class. Richard, Sara & Jane were happy to go out of their way to ensure everything we wanted was provided. Best holiday we had in a fantastic villa, fantastic view and fantastic service. Thanks you guys for making our holiday perfect.

Fantastic experience: We recently booked Torre Bella via Charming Villa Catalonia. The experience was perfect from start to finish. Richard offered very good and very valuable advice when we were trying to decide on the right Villa for our 2 families, we were delighted with our choice. The host/Villa owner Javier was exceptionally welcoming which is always so appreciated and look after our every request throughout our stay, even brining us a blender within hours of our arrival. He is attentive, caring and has a wonderful home that he is proud to share. The Villa is stunning, the views are spectacular and the layout both inside and out are fantastic. It is spacious, very comfortable and the pictures do not it justice! The outside sitting areas and pool house are exactly what you want a holiday Villa, perfect for lounging, snoozing, playing games and outdoor dining. The Pelota' court was a real highlight as well. We were so happy to have found "Charming Villas Catalonia" and can't wait to go back to Torre Bella. Thank you to Richard and Javier.

Fantastic experience: We were originally scheduled to visit the Costa Brava region in June 2020 but with the pandemic that of course did not happen. From the time we booked until we actually were able to travel from the USA to Spain, the team at Charming Villas was truly outstanding. When we first booked we had questions about the villa and Sara (who served as our main contact) always responded in a timely and truly helpful manner. Early on in the pandemic she updated us periodically about what was happening on the ground in Spain and once it appeared that we would be able to travel in 2021, she made sure we knew exactly what we needed to do. Our stay at Can Talalla was wonderful. The villa fit our needs perfectly. Everyone was pleased with their rooms and we all slept extremely well. Having an American sized dryer made us all happy :) We all love to cook so were pleased with the large kitchen and outdoor stone grill. Everything we might have needed was available to us. We enjoyed the pool, playing badminton, and ending the days with gorgeous sunsets. The location was fantastic for what we wanted to do and for starting a vacation in Barcelona. Everything we wanted to do (beaches, Girona, Salvador Dali Museum, Lake of Banyoles, markets) was within a 30-minute drive. Even in pre-pandemic times the level of communication and responsiveness from Charming Villas would have earned high praise, but considering all of what has happened in the past 18 months, the outstanding customer service from Charming Villas was truly appreciated. We look forward to booking another vacation home with them in the future.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality , Responsiveness , Value Just back home from a beautiful trip to Catalonia. We rented a house from Charming Villas Catalonia. It all went very well, the service provided by Richard was great. Every request was handled quickly and to our fullest satisfaction. I can strongly recommend the company and their villas as well.

Fantastic experience: We first contacted Charming Villas about a villa on the seafront at Llafranc which we had seen on a lot of other websites and we wanted to compare prices. The prices quoted were similar to other companies but what impressed us was that Richard gave us his honest opinion about the villa and its weak points instead of just the positive aspects that other companies seemed to do. In the end we booked a different villa with CV in Tamariu and the whole family had a wonderful experience. We have no hesitation recommending CV and we will be booking with them again for sure.

Fantastic experience: This is a charming, very family friendly villa has absolutely everything anyone could need for a relaxing holiday. The villa itself was well stocked with plenty of crockery/kitchenware and we had lots of choice of eating/sitting areas. The pool, tennis court, garden and outdoors games meant our grandchildren never wanted to do anything else but play at Mas Muneer! Richard was very helpful with all sorts of help and advice and our stay was everything we could wish for. Great holiday there. Would love to do again.

Fantastic experience: What a fantastic service Richard and the team offer at Charming Villas Catalonia! We recently stayed in one of their properties in Spain - Mas Muneer - and it was a trip to remember. The property was stunning, the recommendations were spot on and the responsive and thorough service was exactly what was needed after being grounded in the UK for the past 18 months. The team at Charming Villas Catalonia go above and beyond to make your holiday easy, fun, memorable and that little bit extra (recommended chefs, babysitters, local area info and tips)! I couldn't recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: First class company for your Northern Spain rental needs. Richard and Sara are responsive, professional, thoughtful, and just plain kind. They handle any little problem with ease and a smile, and make sure that there are not many, if any, to begin with. They go the extra mile with very personal service. Richard even organized a temporary ping-pong table for us while the new one was on its way (old one had broken). I highly recommend Charming Villas!

Fantastic experience: Profesionales y muy atentos. Muy satisfecho con el resultado.

Fantastic experience: He terminado una semana maravillosa con Charning Villas en una casa en Peratallada Excelente la casa ,el servicio y la zona medieval una de las mas bonitas de España Muy recomendable

Fantastic experience: Estada de 3 setmanes d’agost on vam poder anar a la platja caminant per la seva proximitat així com fer excursions pels voltants i camí de ronda. Una villa amb molta privacitat, els veïns no et veuen ni et senten estiguis on estiguis de la casa. Zona de bbq, pimpom, piscina, chillout i taula exterior gran per acollir un grup gran de persones. Zona interior de disseny minimalista molt espaiós també. 5 habitacions dobles amb totes les comoditats. Ascensor necessari per baixar la compra pesada des del 2n pis fins la cuina!! Aparcament al carrer davant la casa genial, tranquil, no transitat. Ens vam sentir com a casa.

Fantastic experience: We had the pleasure of working with Charming Villas to find a Spanish rental property for Summer of 2020. They have an amazing inventory of properties and are experts within this region. Not only were they extremely helpful, they were also responsive and professional. Sadly due to COVID-19 we had to cancel our trip. Their handling of the cancellation was exceptional, and I would not hesitate to book with them again. I cannot recommend them more highly!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality , Responsiveness , Value Great villa company - totally flexible and very helpful during these difficult times. We booked a wonderful villa and Richard and his team looked after every aspect of our stay. We'll certainly will using Charming Villas again next year. Highly recommended.

Positive experience: Wij hebben het zeer prettig ervaren om hier samen met 2 gezinnen te verblijven. Een geweldige huis op een mooie locatie. Alle voorzieningen waren aanwezig en het heeft ons aan niets ontbroken. Nadeel was dat er veel steekvliegen waren waardoor het buiten eten niet fijn was. En als tip willen wij meegeven de woning te voorzien van een airco.

Fantastic experience: Magnifique maison avec un équipement parfait et une décoration à la hauteur ... Un service réactif et sérieux ... Merci pour ce séjour

Fantastic experience: We stayed at La Roca Timariu. The villa was spectacular with the most breathtaking views. We had a wonderful stay and Sara and Richard made sure all of our needs were taken care of. They were very helpful with restaurant and activity recommendations and reservations, grocery delivery to the villa, transportation and car rental (which was delivered to our villa!). Can't say enough great things about Charming Villas and their service! Will be using them again!

Fantastic experience: We stayed with our family 1 week in July 2019 in the villa Can Rinel in Aiguablava. Our expectations were high, but upon arrival it turned out to be even more beautiful than we had hoped for. We found the service of Charming Villas (Richard) outstanding. He supported us perfectly throughout the booking process and during the holiday. No effort was too much! The villa living space was beautiful, and especially the spacious kitchen has given us much pleasure. The surroundings were beautiful green, had beautiful sea views and it was also very quiet. We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful villa!

Fantastic experience: Our family spent a wonderful Christmas together in Costa Brava at Masia Tamariu arranged through Charming Villas. The location is spectacular and the owners gave us a very warm welcome to their beautiful home. Richard and Sara helped greatly with local arrangements and knowledge and even arranged a perfect start to our vacation with a sublime evening at Celler de Can Roca. The team at Charming Villas handled all arrangements skillfully and reliably and we look forward to returning with their help.

Fantastic experience: We just came back from a 10 days stay at Mas Orriol. What a dream! Charming Villas Catalonia is BY FAR, the best web agency we have came across with. We have booked our annual family vacation through them twice and we will do it again for sure. Efficient, reliable, kind and professional, Sara and Richard have the most amazing houses on their website . Another big plus for us was the feeling of a very personal approach and big reactivity to our questions. We highly recommend !

Fantastic experience: Sara and Richard were a pleasure to work with and our villa at Aiguablava was even better than we were expecting. What set Charming Villas apart for us was their in depth local knowledge and pasion for the area. They helped us plan our activities and day trips and amazingly managed to secure a table for us at the restaurant El Celler de Can Roca which was a real treat. If we return to the area we will definitely book with them again and we have no hesitation recommending them.

Fantastic experience: Sara & Richard manage an extraordinarily lovely collection of properties. They have found places for us to stay twice and I am sure to rely on their services again. Properties are real homes, filled with character and beautifully furnished. Hosts are fantastic, everyone is super responsive. Best holiday rentals. I highly recommend Charming Villas.

Fantastic experience: This is my favorite part of the world and the best kept secret. We have been coming back for years and always finding both peace and also unexplored areas of wonder. This time we rented with Charming Villas and had an amazing worry-free experience. Our villa was absolutely perfect! So much so that I was inspired to take images of the architectural details and use them back home. The villa was new, clean (and kept clean with great staff through out our stay), with all the modern working amennitites and a great number of thoughtful functional details that continued to delight us. Everything was well-thought out for our comfort and worry-free stay. Working with Richard and his team was very easy and pleasant. All our queries and needs were taken care of right away and to great satisfaction. We will be back again and we will be looking for another gorgeous villa in the area with Charming Villas.

Fantastic experience: We recently spent a wonderful week at the fabulous Villa Gelida which we found when browsing the Charming Villas website. Richard’s detailed knowledge of all the first-rate properties he represents enabled him to give us excellent advice for making an informed choice. We were delighted by the villa which even exceeded our high expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Charming Villas if you are looking to book a holiday on the Costa Brava - professional and friendly service from people who live locally and know what they are about.

Fantastic experience: La Sara i en Richard a part de ser molt bons professionals i cuidar sempre els detalls, sempre que els hi ha estat possible m'han passat clients seus perquè jo els hi pogués oferir els serveis de Millor a Casa. Ha estat i segueix sent un honor treballar al seu costat. Charmingvillas 100% recomanable en tots els aspectes.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I highly recommend Charming Villas. Richard went beyond to call of duty to ensure we had a fantastic stay. He was super helpful, very honest and always on hand with tips. He has an array of stunning villas on his books. We chose Can Roure and spent a blissful month there with friends and family. We hope to return to Catalonia next year and will arrange our trip trough Charming Villas again.

Fantastic experience: Charming Villas Catalonia is a terrific company to work with. They list only the finest properties in the best condition (with excellent prices) and their staff was so accommodating in helping us find a chef to conduct a cooking class at our home, recommend and secure restaurant reservations, and suggest a wine tasting expert. Because of them we have a terrific week on the Costa Brava. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Our family worked with Charming Villas to find a place to stay in Spain. We wanted the added assurance that someone has seen the house we planned to stay at. Their selections are all so nice, it's hard to choose. It was nice to reach out and ask questions before we made our reservation. Charming Villas has a system which takes the stress out of the whole process. We highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: Our extended family of 17 rented 2 villas in the hills just above lovely Cadaques in June. The homes were exquisitely decorated and immaculately clean. Our family enjoyed the fact that the 7 kids had their own house (with pool) and could wander freely back and forth. We enjoyed the fact that any little problem was dealt with promptly and efficiently. Someone was on the property everyday to make sure things were in order and everything was running smoothly. Richard was very helpful prior to our trip to help set up a chef on two evenings. He was also very helpful in recommending Compartir, a fine dining restaurant, and arranging seating and reservations for us. In all, this was a beautiful experience for our entire family and I would not hesitate to recommend Charming Villas to anyone who is looking for a first-class experience. Dianne Przybylinski

Negative experience: Lo peor de lo peor. Trato deplorable, servicio malo, y el mantenimiento nefasto. Absolutely disgusting, one of the worst experiences in my life.

Fantastic experience: Our extended family of 15 stayed at Villa Santa Cristina for the week of 22nd July 2017. The booking process with Charming Villas had been excellent and communication from them leading up to our visit was perfect. The position of the villa on a hillside above the village is wonderful and was a pleasant surprise - the pictures on the website do not do justice to the great position and excellent garden. The pool is excellent and was well used by all of us. In summary, this is one of the best villas we have been to for a family holiday and we have no hesitation in recommending Charming Villas as a booking agent. Thank you to them.

Fantastic experience: We worked with Charming Villas Catalonia during a visit to the Girona province in May 2017, and highly recommend their business. They provide professional, competent, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and effective services. We know we will contact them again next time we need a villa in Catalonia - plus we'll continue to recommend them to our family, friends and colleagues.

Fantastic experience: We cannot praise enough the Villa Mas Canayalles we booked through Charming Villas. The help in booking and sorting additional requests was outstanding. The whole family (9 in all) from our 5 month Granddaughter to Grandad celebrating his 70th birthday thoroughly enjoyed every moment at the villa. Everything we could possibly need was provided. The pool was a real plus and we all enjoyed cycling and walking from the doorstep. The location was amazing with beautiful views, birdlife and wild flowers. We received a very warm and helpful welcome on arrival from Clive. We would definitely book through Charming Villas again.
