About this property
Precioso is a gorgeous 3-bedroom, Castilian villa based in the quiet residential area of Aigua Gelida, and it sleeps up to six people. Villa Precioso boasts scenic countryside views from the garden, and it is home to a fantastic sparkling blue swimming pool where the family are guaranteed to build a lot of fun memories.
The exterior grounds are also equipped with plenty of sun-loungers for relaxing on, and a terraced lounging area if one would like to escape from the sun for a while. Furthermore, the garden has a BBQ which is perfect for cooking up a family dinner at the end of a lush day in the Mediterranean sun.
Moving on from this, do not be fooled by the traditional exterior of the Precioso because the inside is very modern and stylish! The villa is two-storeys and has many large windows making the rooms feel light and airy, and the bedrooms here ooze comfort and make it feel like you are staying at a five-star resort.
The villa has a spacious living room with a beautiful fire and a TV for those evenings where the family might want to stay in and relax. Additionally, the first floor of the villa is a mezzanine making it perfect for a teenager who might wish to some of their space.
A massive benefit of the Villa Precioso is that it is only 1km from Tamariu beach; Tamariu is famous for its stunning beaches. There are also many nearby bars, restaurants, and well-stocked mini-marts. Additionally, it is only a one-hour drive to the city of Girona which has plenty of beautiful and exciting attractions for the family to enjoy, such as the Cinema Museum and Girona Cathedral.
Tamariu forms part of the municipality of Palafrugell, along with with its near neighbours, the larger town of Llafranc, and Calella. One of the most charming and unspoilt stretches of the Spanish coast, the area has not fallen victim to over-development, meaning its charm and character has largely been retained.
According to the British Telegraph newspaper, the beach at Tamariu ranks as one of the best beaches on the Costa Brava. Embraced by pine-clad headlands, the horseshoe-shaped beach is very pretty, family-friendly and sheltered.
Just behind the beach is the pedestrian promenade, where there are some cafes, restaurants and beach gear shops. Parents can happily while away a little time in the shade, sipping whatever they fancy, with their children, only yards away from them, play safely on the sand.
It probably won’t be the first time you’ve heard of it, in this neck of the woods, but Tamariu was originally a small fishing village. It has definitely retained some of its charm and identity, and its beautiful south facing sandy bay offers a romantic destination for lovers. It’s also a good choice for families seeking a quieter Costa Brava resort.
The activity in the village will peak in August, but as yet there aren’t any English bars or breakfasts. Neither are their high-rise hotels on the landscape, only a blend of greens, blues and sandy shades with pretty whitewashed buildings in the foreground.
