General Overview

The sea view from the main balcony is so amazing that you will not want to leave home. But, if you do, you will have the closest beach at 2 minutes walking and many others at walking distance; restaurants and shops right down the street and lovely walking/hiking trails nearby (both sea and mountain ones, as the village is located where the Pyrenees mountains meet the sea). You can also enjoy many cultural visits in the area: medieval monasteries; beautiful villages such as Cadaqués or Girona; Dalí museum in Figueres, etc. Barcelona , at 1 or 2 hours by train (depending on the one you choose), is easy to visit.

The Space

The house has two balconies. The front one with its sea views is amazing. But do not forget the little one at the back: with its view of a traditional Mediterranean white street and of the church, it will lead you to another world. Both tables and couches of the living room have little wheels so that you can easily adapt the space to your convenience.

Guest Access

2, only 13 stairs.

Neighbourhood

Beautiful Mediterranean fisherman village. Extremely safe and quiet. Only busy with tourists during August, but still one of the more quiet places you can be in the Spanish coast at the pick of the summer. In August there are plenty of cultural activities: the "Festa Major" ( annual village party) of this and nearby villages, with its free live music by the sea, traditional dances, etc; or classical music concerts in stunning locations such as the medieval Sant Pere de Rodes monastery (amongst others).

Getting to my home

Train at the next village (Llançà) Bus to Port de la Selva. From Barcelona or Girona (and their airports), you could come through a combination of train and bus or directly by bus.

Nearest airport

Girona, 1 h. Barcelona 2 h. Toulouse 3 h.

Getting Around

Walking distance to bus stop. The bus can take you different nearby locations, amongst them the nearby village of Llançà, where you can take the train to many places, including Barcelona and France. Depending on the exchange, I could be able to leave my car for you.

Carme

Hi, I'm Carme, a 56-year-old former lecturer living on my own in a charming seaside village near the border of Spain and France. I traveled all over the world for 2 years and lived in Australia for 8. It's my first time trying to swap homes, but I can provide 78 positive references from hosts and guests around the world from the hospitality website Couchsurfing. I can also provide 16 references as a house sitter. Please check them on the link below: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Iwlbaowka8euFyRiqdr4LSOflT0qc6jR?usp=drive_link I will need to be in Miami for about 3 weeks in October or November 2025, and I would swap my apartment for one there. It doesn't need to be simultaneous, as I could go to my other apartment in Barcelona while you stay at home.
