SURROUNDING AREA: 'Can Caranta' is situated on the Medieval town of Pals. All around the town centre you can see splendid Gothic buildings, like the present-day museum of submarine archaeology Ca La Pruna, a fortified mansion from the 15th-16th century. It also holds a permanent exhibition of wines and cavas of Catalonia, a room offering temporary exhibitions of painters and sculptors.


In the town of Figueres (at 40Km) you will find Salvador’s Dali Museum. At 10 Km is La Bisbal d'Empordà famous for its ceramics. Close by are the Roman ruins at Ullestret, and many other historic medieval villages. Girona - capital of the province, with its Roman and Arabic history which can be seen in the old part of the city, also has a modern side, with great shopping, restaurants and night clubs (a 35 minutes drive).


ACTIVITIES / LEISURE: One of the most characteristic pictures of the coastline is the wide-open 3.5 kilometre long Pals beach with the Medes Islands in the background. Its special topography makes it the ideal spot to practice all types of water sports like windsurfing. Or if you prefer enjoying the surrounding secluded beaches of: Sa Riera, Sa Tuna, Aiguablava, Calella de Palafrugell or Llafranc (10minutes by car). Small sandy bays with rocky headlands, pine trees and clean water.


Only a few kilometres from Pals, in the town of L’Estartit, is the Medes Islands Marine Reserve, an archipelago formed by seven small islands that are admired the world over by people who practise underwater sports. A perfect place to practise: scuba diving, sea watching, snorkelling... and you don’t need to be an expert, because you will find professionals who will guide you and show you the most marvellous places in this privileged sea bed.

M T & L half term hols
Property was as advertised. Due to flight times we arrived at 23:00 hrs, couldn’t access the property due to the PIN code for the gate being incorrect. Tried ringing the property contact number we had with no success. Contacted VRBO for help, sadly the only thing they could offer was to book us another appartment elsewhere ( this was at 1AM in the morning! Anyways after a bit of a palaver we managed to find an alternate way in ! Apart from this appartment was great, the medieval town was nice for wandering about in.

Can Catalina stay October 2019
Had a fantastic stay in Pals for our first family holiday. Love the property and the pool was great for our 6 month old son to play in. Pals is a beautiful place and as we had a car there are lots of places to visit within a 30min to 1 hour drive. Had only one issue with our stay. We found that the beds creaked a lot when sleeping if we moved or rolled about, which only was an issue as our son was sleeping in the cot in the same room. Apart from this a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend.

Lovely home; perfect location!
We thoroughly enjoyed 5 nights in this exceptional property! Three couples each had their own large bedroom and bathroom with lots of community space. We loved cooking together in the kitchen and eating outdoors or in. Well maintained and convenient to all of the Costa Brava. Pals itself is a beautiful town with all conveniences nearby.

Lovely house and ideal location
We had a lovely holiday in Pals, the house Can Caranta was super with everything we needed. The best thing though, was the location with local shops on the doorstep and great restaurants and cafes within walking distance. The old town is charming and there are many interesting places to visit within a short drive. Most enjoyable.

Wunderschönes Schmuckstück am Rande der Altstadt
Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen und man erreicht in sehr kurzen Wegen Bäcker, Metzger, Obst-und Gemüsehändler sowie eine hervorragende Gastronomie.

Belle maison, bien rénovée. Piscine vide à notre arrivée, bien sur on ne nous a pas prévenu avant. Compensation financière out de même obtenue. Une semaine a supporté les désagréments quotidiens des travaux dans la maison jumelle appartenant au même propriétaire: bruit et poussière en permanence.... Rapport qualité prix faible. Je ne recommande pas.

Prachtig huis in goede locatie
Zeer mooi huis. Volledig ingericht. Goede locatie met parkeer plaats. Jammer van kleine details zoals te weinig handdoeken of geen basis kruiden. Maar ja als je het weet ben je voorbereid. Leuk om zo naar de winkels en restaurants te lopen. Koop bij de bakker tegen over de madeleines. Ze zijn heerlijk.
