Wonderful

Exactly as described. Fully equipped with everything you need. The swimming pool is a perfect size and was kept clean the whole of our 3 week stay. The location is perfect for shops, restaurants and beaches. Communications with the host was excellent. We would definitely stay here again.
My friends and I had a wonderful stay. The house is beautiful and is perfectly suited to accommodate 8 people.
The surroundings are very quiet. The pool is perfectly heated. Even if the house does not have air conditioning, it has a multitude of fans that are available to us
We had a great 2 week vacation. A real spanish house, spacious, cozy and a great garden surrounded by trees. The swimmingpool was the centre of our social events.
Should not forget to mention that Calonge is a typical spanish village with a great bakery, butcher, supermarket and restaurant with terrace.
The owners are open to answer questions which is helpful.
We enjoyed our stay a lot.

Fantastic stay
We have just come back from La Colmena and it was fantastic. The house is as described and the swimming pool was fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed eating around the large table on the balcony and the views from the tower balcony were excellent. Our only issue with the property was that there were 2 single beds in one of the double rooms. The excellent WIFI was also a bonus for film watching on a very wet day.
The area is very quiet and it was nice to be away from all the crowds yet be able to access supermarkets, beaches and attractions easily although it is essential to have a car.
The owner was also a pleasure to deal with and was very helpful even organsing us a small food basket for when we arrived as the shops were shut.
Overall a great holiday and an excellent place to stay.

Just what we were looking for!
We stayed one week in the villa Colmena in May 2013.(10-17th )
The place was just what we needed to rest and prepare ourselves for the final celebration of wedding in Barcelona at the end of the week.
We found everything what we needed in the group of 10 family members between 21-60 years old, coming from different countries here( Germany,Poland,USA ) : a lot of place in the big house and full independence for everybody, beautiful garden and extraordinary tranquillity of the place.
We didn't care about strange in this region weather condition and low temperatures this year. The villa was good prepared and is technically good equipped with everything what we needed -functionally almost perfect . It is not a 5 stars hotel but a living dynamic house . It was an excellent base for our escapades to Gerona, Barcelona and many other smaller Cities. It was a great time for us and we would come here surely again!
Wir hatten einen sehr sehr schönen Urlaub im Haus. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig und der Garten und der Pool (29C) garantieren einen erholsamen Urlaub. Es hatte genügend Liegestühle und man findet am Pool immer einen Schattenplatz. Der überdachte Freisitz garantiert gemütliche Frühstücke und Abendessen im Freien. Jeden Abend hatten wir dort Besuch von 4 Geckos. Das Wohnzimmer ist sehr ansprechen eingerichtet und die Couch und Stühle sind bequem. In der Küche hat es alles was man zum Kochen benötigt in ausreichender Menge vorhanden. Der große zusätzliche Kühl-Gefrierschrank im Eingangsbereich war perfekt für zusätzliche Vorräte. Die Betten sind sehr bequem. Durch die 3 Bäder gibt es Morgens und Abends keine Probleme. In der Garage kann man die e-Bikes gut verstauen.Mit dem e-Bike ist man morgens in 5 Minuten beim Bäcker. Auch Supermärkte und selbst der Strand sind damit gut zu erreichen.Vielleicht noch ein Hinweis dass die Agentur die Fliegengitter prüft und gegebenenfalls ausbessert und zusätzlich noch am Fenster im Eingangsbereich eines angebracht wird so dass man Querlüften kann.Wir kommen sicher wieder. DankeLiebe Grüße
Séjour très agréable en famille, nous avons pu profiter de la terrasse et de la piscine fin octobre ! Situation top, au calme, jolie vue. A 15/20 minutes des commerces et très belles plages.Maison un peu vieillissante mais très agréable et fonctionnelle. Petit bémol sur la forte odeur de fioul à l'arrivée dans le logement indépendant qui s'est estompée peu à peu, studio habituellement rarement utilisé en hiver selon l'agence. Nous avons cependant été rassurés rapidement par le propriétaire quant à l'absence de danger (chaudière récente et révisée).Nous gardons l'adresse.
Hemos estado muy tranquilos en la casa. No hay nada de ruido y hay muchísimo espacio y habitaciones para todos (todas con baño propio). Necesitas coger el coche para ir a cualquier sitio, pero eso ya lo sabíamos. Ya conocíamos la zona así que ningún problema. Está muy cerca de todo tipo de servicios y de muchas playas. Hemos disfrutado mucho.
We hebben een heerlijke vakantie gehad. De woning heeft wel dringend onderhoud nodig, plavuizen in woonkamer die los liggen, kan je je lelijk aan bezeren.
Jammer dat het een 12 persoons huis is en maar 7 ligbedjes heeft bij het zwembad.
De auto kon niet in de garage want van het bureau wisten ze niet hoe of dat open ging of het was niet te openen.
Verder heerlijk genoten
Fijn ruim huis in rustige buurt om met twee gezinnen met oudere kinderen te verblijven. Staat van het huis en zwembad zijn iets gedateerd wat voor ons geen probleem was, maar wel iets om rekening mee te houden.
Séjours avec nos deux filles et gendres et 4 petits enfants ( 3 adolescents et un de 8 ans) maison jolie confortable indépendance studio en bas pour les enfants, une tour indépendante pour un couple et deux chambres chacune salle de bain au rendez chaussée surélevé donnant sur séjour et patio ombragé pour repas
piscine et jardin arboré très très agréable
Région que nous connaissions déjà ( palamos, calella de palafrugelll, tamarïu begur, pals, aigua blava) de très belles criques aussi ....les plaisirs sont inépuisables ...
Tout petit bémol 3 derniers un peu chaotiques chaussée encours de réparation avant arriver villa mais tout à fait faisable doucement
Nous avons passe d excellentes vacances
Propriétaires très sympathiques et agence locale réactive! Merci!

Attention tromperie sur l’état de la villa
Je tiens à vous faire part de notre mauvaise surprise de l’état de la villa que nous vous avons loué.
Voici la liste non exhaustive de nos remarques
- il n’y plus de pelouse inexistante ou retournée
- une partie des pavés des chemins sont arrachés
- les transats sont dans un état pitoyable
- les peintures des murs intérieurs et extérieurs sont totalement défraîchies
- les douches ne sont pas propres
- le bâtiment n’a pas été aéré manifestement depuis des mois
- les marches de l’escalier du premier état sont instables
Bref l’extérieur n’a pas été entretenu depuis bien longtemps.
Au niveau de la piscine, même les échelles sont rouillées et ne tiennent plus, ainsi que les filtres bouchés.
L’état de la maison ne correspond pas aux photos de votre annonce, le niveau de prestation n’est pas en adéquation avec le tarif demandé.
Dans ces conditions, nous avons le sentiment d’avoir été trompé par l’annonce.
nous exigeons de votre part un compensation financière face à l’état général de votre villa qui est présentée sur les photos de manière trompeuse car les photos publiée sont anciennes.

Anfahrt ist ein bisschen schwierig wegen zur Zeit Straßenbauarbeiten ausgeführt werden,ansonsten Tolles und gut ausgestattetes Haus mit ausreichend Platz innen und aussen.
Nice place to stay with big family. Big yard with a pool, bbq place, heating pool was 👌 on May.
We lived in this vila for a week. Owners are friendly and very good comunication.
Person from agency didn’t know everything about the house. So best way to ask directly for owners.
On May a little bit cold to sleep on ground floor. But perfect in tower :)
In kitchen you can find all equipment and dishes. It is very good.
Calm and very green place to relax without neiborhood.
Pool very clean. We used it everyday! So good that it has heating. But it is too deep for small kids.
Thank you for Marc!
Best wishes!

Magnifique villa
La villa est grande et très jolie. Piscine chauffée la nuit et cadre magnifique avec les lumières. Tout était propre. La villa est proche de la mer, environ 15min en voiture, ou nous avons fait plusieurs activités comme jetski, boué, bateau.. et de plusieurs supermarchés.
Quelques points négatifs : toutes les chambres ne sont pas climatisées, et là villa se situe sur une route en très très mauvais état, on doit donc rouler très lentement et faire attention aux roues sur les 2derniers km.
Si vous n’arrivez pas à joindre le propriétaire via Abritel, ajoutez son numéro à vos contacts pour le contacter sur whatsapp, c’est ce que j’ai du faire. Mais il a été très sympa, et m’a même envoyé des photos supplémentaires.
Finalement, lorsque vous arrivez sur les lieux il faut d’abord se présenter à l’agence Al vent (ils vous contactent et vous donnent toutes les informations nécessaires).
Dans l’ensemble, Nous n’avons eu aucun soucis, et avons passé un séjour très agréable.

Problemas
La casa es muy bonita, aunque tiene algunos problemas. Para acceder a la sala de abajo, el único modo era pasando por el exterior de la casa. Otro problema fue la conexión a Internet, que era penosa. El Wi-Fi iba mal, y no habría importado si no fuese porque no llegaba cobertura prácticamente. La carretera para llegar estaba destrozada, cosa que estaría bien anunciar. El supermercado más cercano está a 10 minutos teóricos, pero con el estado de la carretera ser tardan 30. El único aire acondicionado que había no funcionaba. Uno de los fogones de la cocina no funcionaba. La mayoría de utensilios de cocina estaban sucios, y los tuvimos que lavar. No había ni siquiera sal y aceite.
El único congelador que había estaba en el garaje, al que, como he dicho, solo se podía acceder pasando por fuera.
Se anuncia que la piscina es climatizada, pues bien, espera 5 días para que suba un solo grado.
En una de las habitaciones, la cama estaba aguantada por unos trozos de madera, que en el momento en el que me senté casi me muero de un infarto.
Mi conclusión, pero, es que si quieres pasar una semana de descanso en una casa sin moverte de ahí, y llegas bien preparado con comida suficiente (y antimosquitos), con películas descargadas y tiempo libre, esta casa es para ti. Pese a los problemas nombrados, la casa es muy bonita, y agradable de estar en ella. La recomendaría si no se pretende ir a la playa y solo se pretende descansar.
Prachtige locatie lekker op een heuvel met veel groen. Alleen de weg is minder . We hebben heerlijk genoten van de villa , was lekker groot zwembad verwarmd. Is echt een aanrader
Location conforme à la description- jolie piscine chauffée !!
accès difficile : route en très mauvais état et abords de la route pas entretenu.
Nous avons passé un séjour agréable, au calme dans un endroit tranquille.
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in der Villa, sehr Private Lage wo man alles geniessen kann.. der Garten und der Pool waren sehr gross und läd zum entspannen ein.
Einziger negativer Punkt sind die Strassen zum Objekt die man dringen reparieren sollte also nichts für tiefe Autos.
