The best part was staying in the tiny fishing village of Punta Mujeres and interact with the locals simply by having a cortado or getting a beer with the others. This is the best slow travel I have experienced. Highly recommended, if you want to walk, trek, read, write, have great food and surrounded by simple, kind people. An unforgettable vacation where the pace was slow and the locals very kind including the mini market at Punta Mujeres, the hair dresser and folks at Bar Palenka. (more)Priti Patnaik

Off grid electricity is used on side produced by the solar panels.... (more)Terrie Shaw

Memorable parts? This was a lovely vacation and the coastal walks especially glorious. We much appreciated the welcome pack of groceries, the very comfortable and well appointed townhouse, and the flexibility we were given to modify our routes. In the unseasonably hot June weather (30 degrees plus) having our own pool was a great bonus. When the heat curtailed our walks, the local beaches included in several walks were a delight. Tips? Vivian and Alan gave us a warm welcome and provided... (more)Anne Ife

Memorable parts? Too many to mention! Accommodation was great! Paddle boarding was great!! Sea kayaking amazing! Cycling brilliant and sailing relaxing!! Tips? Take the bus if you’re flying into Barcelona. Local benefits? The showers were all heated by solar power.
