Luxury 5 Bed, Commanding Sea Views with private pool & garden
Villa Hermosa is an imposing three story villa with commanding views of the Catalan countryside and the sea. Located in a quiet wooded area on the edge of the historic village of Begur and 5 min drive from the wonderful beach at Aiguablava. The villa is fully air-conditioned. Private 6x4 m swimming pool, private gardens has children's play area with swings. The villa comprises five good sized bedrooms with built in wardrobes and three bathrooms. Sea views from several bedrooms. Excellent dining terraces with sea views. Begur is a charming village full of restaurants and boutiques and an excellent base from which to explore the Costa Brava. In summer there are numerous festivals and outdoor markets held around the medieval church square. The nearest beach at Aiguablava is deservedly popular with families with soft sand and crystal clear waters. Three beachside restaurants offer excellent opportunities for leisurely lunches.
Golf Courses: There are many excellent golf courses nearby including the Catalunya PGA. Green fees are very reasonable and the standards of the courses compare favourably with anything else in Europe. Ask for a brochure on Golf in the Costa Brava.
Yacht Charter: We have friends that run a sailing school in nearby Port d'Aro and a skippered charter can be arranged for a day or a few days for up to 8 people.
Fine Dining: Three of the world's best 50 restaurants are Catalan and within a 35 min drive. Some of the most exiting wines being produced in Europe come from this region. Why not ask us to arrange a visit to a winery or to a world class restaurant.

Wonderful

Maison agréable, jolie vue, bien équipée mis a part la salle de bain du niveau piscine dans laquelle il manquerait une étagère pour poser les affaires.
Supermarché à 3mn en voiture, begur centre à 5mn, mer à 10mn.
Petit Bemol: beaucoup d escaliers à monter.On le savait , mais fatigant quand même.
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour et c est une très jolie région.
The villa is spacious with large living room and kitchen all open plan leading to a wraparound balcony with lovely views. There are a number of steps up to the main entrance but the lift from the garage that takes suitcases and heavy shopping was such a good idea. The annexe on the floor below can also be reached by a spiral staircase from the balcony so it was easy to go up from the pool to the main villa. The annexe has a double room, single bunk bed room and shower room. The pool was great with small steps on the side. Lots of loungers and plenty of room for sunbathing. The supermarket is a short walk or drive away and sold everything we needed.
The only inconvenience was the rubbish disposal, but it was fine. We had to ring Kerry though to find out what to do. We were welcomed and shown around the villa but a welcome pack with information on rubbish collection and map of car parks in Begur and markets would be a good idea. I know you send lots of information but it would be nice to have something written as well.
We all loved our stay in Villa Hermosa. It was perfect for our age ranges from 3 to 71.
Résidence dans un endroit calme. 3 niveaux, du garage aux étages, donc beaucoup de marches, non sportifs s'abstenir ! (la maison est équipée d'un monte charge, ça compense un peu...) Zone résidentielle assez calme, mais un peu loin des plages ou du centre du village, voiture indispensable. La maison est bien mais aurait besoin de quelques réparations, en particulier au niveau des salles de bain (fuite bac à douche pour l'une et accessoires un peu vieillots), mais le reste des équipements est très correct. Piscine OK, Le contact avec le propriétaire, Bob, est super sympa et il est cool et il est là en cas de problème. Globalement, un endroit sympa pour passer du temps entre copains. Attention quand même, une des 5 chambres n'est pas adaptée pour un couple (lits superposés)
We had a wonderful stay in Villa Hermosa.
We couldn’t have asked for more from the excellent and efficient communication with Derek the proprietor to Bob the property manager.
The villa itself is far nicer than the images show and we were more than pleasantly surprised.
We were a party of 3 adults and had two groups of friends join us during our 3 week vacation. The villa was so so spacious both inside and out. It was really well equipped and has excellent Wi-Fi which my husband used as he was working for the first 2 weeks.
The location is excellent but I think you would need a car to properly enjoy the area. The nearest town Begur is on a few minutes drive but you could walk ( 30 mins approx) The villa is only a short drive to all the beautiful costal towns and is only a few minutes walk to an excellent supermarket.
The pool area is also fantastic and there is even a fridge outside to store your drinks whilst lounging at the pool.
The villa is in a lovely quiet neighbourhood surrounded by beautiful pine trees.
We would definitely return to villa Hermosa without hesitation.
Thank you for a lovely stay

Casa en Begur
en primer lugar no me ha parecido bien que, aunque hable por teléfono con el agente de la inmobiliaria, no se personara en ningún momento a recibirnos ni posteriormente. En segundo lugar el mantenimiento de la vivienda no me parece correcto. Creo que la casa está algo desprotegida podría entrar cualquiera, la llave de la puerta de la zona de abajo no cierra por dentro debe de estar estropeada. La zona muy buena. Begur es un pueblo muy bonito. Gracias.

Muy bien por dentro
Me ha gustado como estaba por dentro, pero los espacios de fuera no me han gustado tanto como otros chalets a los que he ido. Difícil comunicarse con la que llevaba el alwuiler exclusivamente en inglés.
Beautiful begur and surrounding areas. Hit by beauty round every corner. Lovely villa although rather a lot of steps. Not for the infirmed but we as a family of 10 of assorted ages had an amazing time. Thank you villa Hermosa.

A bit of Costa Brava Magic
Villa Hermosa is in a great location, close to beaches, to the restaurants of Begur and to a really good supermarket. The villa is well equipped, although the outdoor furniture is a bit tired. The downside is the slog up all the steps from the road to the main floor, especially when you are lugging suitcases and shopping.
Heerlijk huis waar wij met ons gezin 9 personen 1 week verbleven.
Een fijn huis op een mooie plek. Heerlijk die airco waardoor het gehele huis koel was. De supermarkt is vlakbij naast de camping en vanaf 8 uur kan je vers warm brood halen.
De beheerders waren goed bereikbaar en kwamen meteen om bijvoorbeeld een deurklink te repareren. Het zwembad is ook heerlijk, we hebben er veel gebruik van gemaakt. Wel was het water groen en later bleek dat de pomp verstopt zat. Dat was het enige minpunt aan ons verblijf. Het strand is op 10 min rijden. Wel druk, als je om 10 uur gaat is er nog voldoende parkeerplaats. Een lekker koele zee en we hebben mooi gesnorkeld.
Restaurant in Platja Sa Riera 'Recer de la Mar' is zeker aan te bevelen. Goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding.
Kortom een heerlijk week!

Lovely October break
Really enjoyed Begur and all the areas beeches, villages and the larger resorts and towns surrounding it, all of which are less than 20mins drive from the house. The property was lovely to return to late afternoon to relaxe by the pool , then have diner outside on the balcony, we really enjoyed our morning coffee’s on the front balcony catching those early morning rays. The property is spacious and would be great for larger groups. If I was to offer suggestions to improve the offering, I personally would install a satellite dish with a Humax receiver to obtain some UK tv Alternatively a selection of Box sets for the DVD player would be nice. To top
It all a ‘footstool’would be a great addition to the lounge. These are only little add on suggestions as everything else in the property is spot on.

A charming hilltop villa in a quiet spot with beautiful views
We were 2 families of 4 and had such a wonderful stay at Villa Hermosa. The early summer weather meant we could really enjoy the suntrapped pool and the breathtaking local beaches. Begur is a charming local town and all are just a short drive away. Three great bathrooms and comfortable beds with plenty of space. Two bedrooms are downstairs via the outside staircase which worked well for the teenagers. BBQs on the balcony with wine, fish and meat from the local supermarket made for really special evenings. Thank you Derek, Catriona and Kerrie for a great stay. We hope to return some time soon.

Family holiday
Loved the location of the villa, being close to Begur town centre and the local beaches with an excellent supermarket nearby. A car is essential to reach the beaches and also the town centre due to the hilly nature of the area. The villa is lovely and comfortable, and the views delightful. The facilities were very good but on booking the one facility that was important to us was the lift, however, on final payment we were advised that the lift could only be used for transporting shopping etc, not for people. There is no internal staircase so those in the bedrooms on the lower floor had to use the outside staircases to reach the upper floor. On the basis that people cannot use the lift and with approximately 40 stairs to climb to reach the front door this villa may not be suitable for those with walking or breathing difficulties. One of our party did have this issue and it was a concern whether he would cope, thankfully he did, with some difficulty. We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely villa and were well supported by the very helpful Managers.

Maison avec piscine à Begur
La maison est conforme aux photos avec une pièce à vivre et une terrasse très agréable. Nous avons loué cette maison à 2 familles avec 6 enfants total et étions très à l'aise en terme d'espace. A noter que le premier étage et le second communique par un escalier extérieur. Je recommande cette location situee dans une très belle région.

Lovely house to explore local area
Vila Hermosa is a delightful residence near to the town of Begur but ideal for exploring the region's beaches of Aiguablava, Pals, Sa Riera and Sa Tuna. We were a family of 10 people of all ages staying for a week and the house was very comfortable and accommodating for all. The swimming pool area and large balcony were particularly enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Excellent Begur villa in a great position
The property is well equipped with everything needed for a large group - we were a party of 7 with three generations - and there was plenty of space. Everything in good condition, clean and well maintained. Very close to an excellent supermarket and 10 minutes drive from the restaurants and bars in Begur. Extremely quiet location, and nice breeze on the main terrace so eating out was never too warm even thought we had mid 30's the whole stay.
Catriona and Ryan were very responsive and helpful both before and after our stay - many thanks for an excellent holiday!

Lovely house - amazing views
Our family of 10 including 3 children and one person with limited mobility had an excellent stay at Villa Hermosa. It had everything we needed - spacious and comfortable rooms, well stocked kitchen, plenty of bathrooms and outside space, and beautiful views. The lift was invaluable too especially with heavy bags and lots of shopping. The local manager was really helpful on arrival showing us where everything was and where we could find the supermarket (3 mins away by car and has everything you could possibly need including butcher, baker and fresh fish shop), child friendly restaurants etc. The weather wasn't great but that didn't matter as the amazing views, spacious house and good company more than made up for it. You definitely need a car but there's plenty of parking and there's loads to see in the local area like picturesque beaches and coves. We'd highly recommend this villa for a lovely holiday!

Excellent Choice
Villa Hermosa turned out to be an excellent choice for our family holiday. The layout made it very suitable for a gathering of 3 families with an age range of 70 to 5, with everyone feeling they had enough personal space when needed. The very steep site means that young children need supervision when outside but this is worth it for the lovely views, position, facilities and accomodation. The villa is well situated in a quiet residential area just outside lovely Begur and not far from great beaches.
The property was well presented and clean. In our view, it was more spacious and better than we expected from the description and photos. Very helpful handbook provided by the owner. We all had a great week and would recommend this property.

A great time at Hermosa
We had a great time at villa Hermosa. There was enough room and privacy for all of us (6 p). Everything was clean and the pool was cleaned ones a week. There is an elevator in the house, what makes it very comfortable. I would really recommend it to a group of friend or to a big family.
