4. COSTA BRAVA
Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Costa
Brava experiences idyllic
weather conditions throughout the entire
year. Its one hundred kilometer long coast-
line is surrounded by beautiful mountains,
hidden coves, and forests of pine, oak, and
cork trees.
On Costa Brava is located Sant Feliu de
Guixols, a town with an incredible location
that is known to be a major port and tour-
ist area, for good
reason. It´s beaches are impressively
kept, as the city contains its own
irrigation system in order to keep the
crystal clear sea water from mixing with
wastewater from the town.

5. history &
culture
Due to it’s prosperous shipyards, cork
production and own sea consulate Sant
Feliu de Guixols is one city along Costa
Brava that has maintained its
independence. Over centuries the town
kept growing and by the sixteenth and
seventeenth century the city was
booming thanks to it’s fishing and boat
building industries.
By the nineteenth century, the cork
industry was thriving and it was then that
the majority of the city’s buildings and
beach front promenades were developed.
However, Sant Feliu des Guixols, to this
day, still holds true to its cultural roots.

7. active lifestyle
Costa Brava encompasses endless possibili-
ties with the ultimate combination of activi-
ties.
Diving, sailing, swimming, hiking and biking
as well as guided diving tours, fishing excur-
sions, kayaking, windsurfing,
waterskiing, surfing, and SkiBus´ are just a
few of the popular attractions.
With so many towns in such close
proximity, it is worth to travel to other loca-
tions. As Isla Medes has some of the best div-
ing and fishing spots on all of Costa Brava.
The tiny country of Andorra has two ski areas
in the Pyrenees that are anything but small:
Grandvalira is in fact Europe’s largest ski
area outside the Alps.
The closest ski resort to Punta Brava (about
120 km) and also the oldest one in Spain is
La Molina.
These areas offer first-rate skiing enjoyment
in the winter and wide range of outdoor
activities in the summer.

to the master suite, are the children rooms with a playroom. In addition to the internal connection the eastern bedrooms can be
accessed independently by the longitudinal belvedere terrace.
On this floor there are also a TV room and home cinema, and another living room on the master suite that can be used as a
games room, pool, music room, library, etc. It all depends on the family composition and the hobbies.
First floor
This is where the noblest rooms of the house are located (the living room, dining room, porches, solarium, and pool). The living
looks at both views, east and west, and is in the “forward corner “of the construction. Part of the roof is flat allowing tall win-
dows providing an interesting lighting and also access to the roof terrace.
An entire wing, parallel to the pool, has a gym, a sauna and a spa.
From the swimming pool a waterfall runs through the courtyard to reach the terrace underneath where a staircase can communi-
cate directly the pool area with the bedrooms, without going into the living room.
