We stayed in Villa MarcoPolo end of April, beginning of May with 2 adults and 4 children. One morning to wake up and from the terrace we saw the snowy mountains of the Pyrenees. We understood that this had not happened in over a 100 years in May! Luckily the villa can be heathed, it was only 11 degrees C. one day. When we arrived we found the villa really clean and tidy, the villa needs to have some paintwork done on the outside, we understood from the owner that this will be done during the summer. We were very happy that there were DVD's to watch and some games to play and a lot of books, because we had two days and nights of rain. The furniture in the living/eatingroom is good and sufficient and the beds are very good, clean and comfortable. Luckily some days the weather was better and we visited the beach at the bay at he other side of the hill of Villa MarcoPolo (15 minutes walk), Montgo Bay, lovely bay with christal clear water and a nice beach with some terraces and restaurants, where you can have a super lunch for little money. The children enjoyed the pool, which is quite deep, so one can dive. We also enjoyed the BBQ on the lower terrace next to the pool. We visited Figueras, Dali Musem and a lot of nice boutique shops. The old village of L'Escala is charming, small nice beach in the centre of the village with a bar next to it, 1869, with great tapas, also a bar, Caravella, with free Wifi. Although we had some days with bad weather we absolutely enjoyed our stay and are sure we want to come back to Villa MarcoPolo, sometime during the summer season. There are a lot of places to visit and we do love the small size of L'Escala which is not as turistic as other parts of the Costra Brava. We can really recommend Villa MarcoPolo, situaded in a very quite part of L'Escala with a lot of privacy. The views are wonderfull, there is only one neighbour, of which the house is at the back and more up hill, the view: Pyrenees, pinetrees and a part of the bay of Rosas to one side.
