Overview
Located just moments from the charming village and picturesque cove of Tamariu, the newly constructed Villa Salmonte is the perfect place to relax in the sun and explore the scenic coastline.
Situated at the end of a quiet residential street, the villa enjoys a peaceful setting, a short walk from the beach and village centre. Raised from the road, the house is enclosed with trees and rich vegetation, giving a strong sense of privacy.
Arranged over two floors, the interior spaces are modern and unfussy. The open-plan living and dining area enjoys plenty of natural light spilling in through the expansive glass doors. Wrapping around the front of the room, large sliding doors can be left open throughout the day to create a fluid indoor-outdoor space and allow a fresh breeze to circulate through the house.
A round dining table occupies the centre of the room with plenty of room for six people, and a large sofa and armchair are arranged to the side, creating a comfortable and more informal area in front of the TV and fireplace. The smartly finished kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances and all the utensils and appliances you may need to prepare a meal. There is also a small table, which is ideal for having breakfast and coffee. There is also a double bedroom with a bathroom and shower on this floor.
Both the kitchen and living area enjoy direct access to the exterior and beautifully maintained garden. An outdoor dining table sits beneath the shade of the floor above, making it the ideal spot for a leisurely lunch with all the family or enjoying the balmy summer evenings whilst sharing a meal and sipping a glass of wine beneath the stars.
Extending out from the two patios, a generous grass lawn is enclosed by trees and hedges, making you feel far removed from neighbours. A considerably sized pool is perfect for a refreshing swim to cool off in the midday heat, and multiple loungers line its perimeter, inviting you to lay back and soak up the warm sun.
The villa's second level is split into two wings: on the left, there is a spacious main suite with a double bed and a neat ensuite bathroom. The bedroom also enjoys access to a private terrace looking out over the garden, making it a lovely spot to wake up and enjoy a peaceful morning coffee as the sun rises. The right-wing contains two further bedrooms, each with two single beds and a shared bathroom with a bathtub. They both have access to a small terrace that looks over the pool.
What you should know…
- The newly constructed villa features air conditioning and a heat pump, making it possible to find the optimum internal temperature, a blessing on hot summer nights
- Whilst the villa can host up to 8 people, it should be noted that two of the rooms have single twin beds and share a bathroom
- The large outdoor pool is great for all the family to enjoy, but please be aware that there is no boundary or fence to enclose it so young children should be supervised at all times

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa SalmonteVilla Salmonte enjoys a tranquil setting on the periphery of Tamariu, just a five-minute walk from the town centre and moments from the beach. Taking its name from the tamarisk trees that dot the seafront, this once-sleepy fishing village is a delightful spot to enjoy the beach and crystal-clear waters. Framed between rocky outcrops, the crescent-shaped sand has a gentle shore that invites you to paddle in the shallows or take a swim in the calm waters.
This picturesque stretch of coastline is a well-recognised scuba diving spot, with various caves to explore along with the impressive submerged mountain of Llosa de Cala Nova. To have a go, visit the Stolli Dive School located just off the beach, or simply purchase a snorkel and explore the cove in your own time. Another way to take in the scenic coast and hidden inlets is to hire a kayak and paddle down to the charming smuggler's cove of Cala Pedrosa. This lovely little spot is ideal for a romantic afternoon, and there is also a tiny cafe operating out of an old fishing hut that provides refreshing drinks and tasty lunchtime snacks.
Located just a10-minute drive to the north, another lovely spot is Aiguablava. Nestled between steep cliffs and wild vegetation, the pretty cove has several charming restaurants, including Toc al Mar, a local affair dedicated to serving local fish and seafood, cooking the fresh daily catch over its oak grill.
Tamariu itself has plenty of cafes and bars, as well as a shop to buy some local produce to take back to the house. A number of restaurants sit along the seafront, offering up freshly caught fish and traditional tapas plates to be savoured whilst enjoying the view. Drawing from the land and sea of the region, the local Catalan cuisine is delicious and remarkably varied. Why not spend an evening by the seafront and enjoy a supper of traditional dishes, such as ‘Uquet de peix’, a tasty stew made deep red with saffron, or the delightful ‘Bacalla’, a salted cod fish that forms the base of many Catalan dishes.
As well as its wonderful landscape, this area of Girona has plenty of history and culture. Just 15 minutes by car, the colourful town of Begur is a delightful place to spend the day. Wander through the cobbled streets and admire the diverse architecture, from Moorish and Spanish styles to neoclassical mansions and the traditional whitewashed houses that drape the hillside. Visit the ruins of the town's castle constructed during the 16th century or browse the weekly market for locally-made gifts and produce. Beneath the Church of Sant Pere, the extensive stone bench of Es Pedrís Llarg is a popular spot to stop and rest. Buy an ice cream or cold drink and sit back to watch the daily bustle of this lively square. There are plenty of restaurants and terraces to enjoy in the evening, and if you visit on a Saturday, you can enjoy the traditional Sardana dancing on the Placa de la Vila.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesWith its enclosed garden and substantial pool, Villa Salmonte is a great place to spend a relaxing break with the whole family. Parents can supervise swimming whilst soaking up the sun on one of the nearby loungers, and the large grassy lawn is ideal for running around and playing outdoor games,
Five minutes walk away, the blue flag beach of Tamariu invites you to spend the day beside the sea. Perhaps pack a picnic and set up camp on the golden crescent of sand, dipping in and out of the clear water to cool off. Alternatively, several restaurants and bars set back from the waterfront invite you to enjoy lunch in the shade or purchase an ice cream to savour on the walk back to the villa.
Jump in the car and head down the coast to the larger town of Palamos, where you can explore the port and take a boat trip to view the coastline from a different perspective. The town also has a number of public playgrounds, as well as an Explora Park, where you can find an assortment of tree-top activities for all ages.
For those looking for a thrill, a Karting circuit sits on the edge of Palamos, just a 30-minute drive from the villa. Take on a family challenge and spend the afternoon speeding around the track. There is also a small restaurant on site that provides refreshments.
