About this villa rental
Begur is a lovely old medieval town, which has many good restaurants and bars, with many chic boutiques. The villa, Les Tres Oliveres, is in an area of great natural beauty with a large range of leisure pursuits including diving and golf. It is also very popular with walkers and ramblers throughout the year. The villa is on the Cami de Ronda coastal route and a quiet road leading to the marine reserve of Ses Negres (2 minutes walk) between the beaches of Aiguafreda (10 minutes walk) and Sa Riera (2.3km) and about 5km from Begur. The garden has been fully relandscaped in January 2024 to make it drought resistant. The grassed areas had proved to be unsustainable over the last 2 years due to global warming and subsequent water restrictions that were imposed. The new garden is comprised of wood composite decking and steps together with gravel and two mature lemon trees. The house has wonderful sea and countryside views and is fully furnished with many facilities. It consists of a kitchen, 2 living rooms, a sun room / dining room, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms (one double and two twins - one of which has an en-suite wetroom and French doors opening on to the shaded outside dining area and sofa). The balcony is accessible from both the main living room and the sun room, both of which have great sea views. The shaded outside dining area has a BBQ and is just up from the private heated pool (8m x 4m). Diving, Boating, Walking and Golf: This area really is one of the best areas in Spain for Scuba Diving. We dive from Aiguafreda which is 2 minutes drive from the house. It's a great safe place to dive with loads to see. We also dive at the Medas Islands and with Dive Begur. The marine reserve at the end of the road is called Ses Negres, and is 2 minutes walk from the villa. It is excellent for snorkelling with lots of fish to see in very clear water, but as it is protected, scuba diving is not permitted in this specific location. Please ask us if you have any more questions about this. If you want to go boating, we can put you in touch with a local who provides boat hire or another who can take you on a tour along the coast. You can moor up in coves which are only accessible from the sea. The Costa Brava is wild and rugged area with tremendous views and scenery. It has great walks and 370km of marked paths which are maintained by the Baix Emporda Tourism Committee. The house is actually on the coastal path called Cami de Ronda There are 9 golf courses in the area including 2 championship courses How to get here: From the UK, you can get Eurotunnel or a ferry from Dover to Calais. The drive time from Calais is 12 hours. Otherwise, most budget airlines such as EasyJet, Ryanair and Jet 2 fly in to the airports of Girona, Perpignan and Barcelona. Girona airport is 45 minutes and the others are less than 90 minutes drive. Any more questions and feedback: We really want you to enjoy your time at our villa and will be more than happy to answer any other questions that you have. After you come back, we would also appreciate any feedback on what you liked (or didn't like) with any suggestions on how we can make your stay with us even better next time.

The villa is spacious and tastefully decorated with a lovely garden and pool. The location is beautiful, set on a hill overlooking the sea, and not overlooked by other villas.
The area is quiet, and beaches and coves are within walking distance. We only scratched the surface of the area, as we spent time relaxing in the villa, or spending a day at one of the amazing beaches snorkelling.
We'd go back again, as there's so much we didn't do, but had a great time.

Fabulous property, stunning view, wonderful hosts
We enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing three weeks at the gorgeous Les Tres Oliveres which is equipped with everything you could possibly need - from a fabulous coffee maker to soft beach towels - for a perfect stay.
The views are simply stunning from both the terrace and while sun bathing by the pool and although built on a hillside, with no slope behind the property casting a shadow, it has glorious continual sunshine from dawn to sunset.
The local area is beautiful too with great beaches and many little towns and villages to explore. Begur is a truly delightful place with great restaurants and boutiques to enjoy a bit of browsing. Each morning we got our freshly squeezed orange juice and baked baguettes and croissants from Sa Riera which is only a four minute drive away.
John & Sian are fabulous hosts, quickly responding to any query and determined to ensure you enjoy your stay in their beautiful home. Their kind and thoughtful assistance meant we had, for us, the perfect holiday

Amazing location, so much to see and do
It's our third trip to this heavenly villa. Our family just loves the stylish touches, supreme comfort and home away from home feel of this beautiful place. The heated pool means it's hard to get the kids out especially after dark with the lights on! We found so many gorgeous beaches (the excellent manual tells you so much like which ones you need to get up early to park at) and coves this time and there's just so much to do. Really recommend boat hire with Begur Boats too to find the gems. We always love the restaurant recommendations - our favourite this year matched yours in Sa Riera! We'd recommend this to everyone. John's communication is always amazing and so friendly (I feel like I've met you John!). And having returned over three years we've always been impressed with the improvements you've made and the new touches. Loved the new loungers on the balcony area this year and moving the others made it even more comfortable at the pool. Love love love this place. Coming back again soon. Thanks John and Sian.

Lovely villa, lovely area.
This villa has a wonderful homely feel. You can tell it is the owner’s holiday home as lots of thought and care has been put into the little details to make staying here comfortable. Begur is fabulous too. We’d definitely go back!

We spent a wonderful week in this villa in July with our two daughters (12/14).
When we entered the property we were overwhelmed by the spectacular view not only over the sea but also onto the green hills of Begur.
Our daugters immediately fell in love with the big pool as it offered the perfect refreshing and entertainment during an exceptionally hot week. Another perfect relief were the additional bedrooms downstairs as the temperatures there were much cooler.
The house and the garden is really spacious and there are so many lovely spots in the sun or in the shadow that you actually don’t want to leave. Everything was perfectly maintained and very tastefully arranged: the well-temperatured pool and pool area, the colourful garden and the light and warm interior.
But finally we managed to leave this silent place to discover the small bay of Aiguafreda just a short walk away by feet. Also Begur is a wonderful place to spend the evening in a good restaurant or to do some shopping. We also loved the small restaurant mile in Pals.
Finally we had a perfect communication with the owners providing really lots of useful information.
We would love to come back! Thank you very much for this wonderful holiday!

Fabulous!
Really enjoyed our holiday here. The villa is well equipped and extremely comfortable. The sea views are stunning and the villa has plenty of outdoor space including a really good size heated pool. The communication from the owners was excellent and they provided us with all the information we needed prior to our arrival which made the journey to the villa easy, even late at night! Would highly recommend.

Fabulous Villa
Beautiful, well equipped and well maintained villa in a stunning location. Absolutely perfect for my family of four. The views, particularly in the morning when the sun came up, are to die for and make this a really special place. It was extremely hot when we visited and I was concerned about the lack of AC but I needn't have worried as the cooling sea breeze meant it was never uncomfortable. We ate at Cap sa Sal a couple of times which was great and walked to Sa Tuna one evening but mostly enjoyed the facilities at the villa. We had an issue with the boiler when we stayed but John was brilliant & it was quickly resolved. Most comprehensive welcome book I have ever seen which was so useful! Wonderful holiday, I'm sure we will visit again.

Beautiful villa, incredible view booked again!
We've just booked for our family to return for a third time. This is perfect for families. The grassed area is great and so much bigger than it looks in the photos and the pool is like a bath. The view is to die for any time of day and the villa has everything you could want and so much more - cocktail glasses well every kind of glass (we love love love these), coffee pods, every size dish and pan for every meal! But what means so much to us is the amazing communication with the owners. John and Sian are so responsive. We even got tips on where to buy the gorgeous guest towels they provide (we had to buy some to take home). We did look at other places just to make sure we weren't missing out on anywhere else on the Costa Brava but nothing rivals this villa, it's grounds, wonderful location and heated pool. We especially loved the beach at Pals this year and found a wonderful water assault course - perfect to tire out the kids! There's so much to do we just keep coming back and finding more! And a week is never long enough when you're trying to work your way through the fantastic guide John sends you - there's still restaurants we haven't made it to but we have tried the recommended G&T's! Can't wait to come back next August.

Delightful villa
We had a lovely time at Les .The property has a feeling of a
very loved and well thought out second home. The balcony is a joy to sit on. The view is wonderful and indeed better than the photographs. The sail canopy was invaluable as we hit over 30 degrees several days.
The decor and furnishings are very tasteful and elegant creating a light,clean, airy feel. The house and pool are spotlessly clean and the garden has been planned and is very well stocked and maintained.
We were only three and did not take advantage of the downstairs den , which would be perfect for children,
teenagers or a bit of space if required.
The beds were very comfortable .
The kitchen was very well equipped and more than adequate size. The utensils, crockery and pots were also spotlessly clean and seemed almost new .
The manual was very useful and we sampled several of the recommended restaurants.
We did not turn the TV / games on so can not make a comment on stations etc . We had no problem with the wi fi.We really enjoyed staying in the lovely house and would have no hesitation in recommending it very highly.

Beautiful setting, perfect views of the sea.
We had a lovely week. On energetic days we walked to local beaches or did day trips to Figueres and a water park. Other days we just relaxed at the villa. Just what we needed.

Paradise
Tres Oliveres is simply perfect. John's "treatise" was so informative and made checking in a breeze. The house and grounds are even more lovely than the pictures and everything was immaculate. We enjoyed their recommendations and had delicious food and wonderful walks.
Begur is a charming town and Tres Oliveres was a perfect base from which to enjoy the Costa Brava. The view from the house is superb and we loved sitting on the terrace any time of day or night. The internet worked well, as did all of the appliances. Our clothes were so fresh after hanging on the clothesline outdoor drying rack
It was a privilege to be John and Sian's guests and we are looking forward to returning to Tres Oliveres.

The property was exactly as described and was very clean and well maintained.
We had a very enjoyable one week stay in early October. The beautiful pool was a real bonus. Begur is a nice town less than 10 minutes away by car. There is a good selection of restaurants and shops.
The coastal walking tracks along the cliffs are wonderful.

Small villa with gorgeous view to ocean
This is a lovely vacation "villa" in a beautiful location. We are 2 retired couples and the space worked fine for us. The kitchen is tiny, but functional and well equipped. The entire space is neat and clean. There is a nice private area inside and outside for the downstairs apartment which also has its own entrance. The downstairs apartment could use fresh paint and new curtains. There is a washing machine (dial setting instructions in French and English would help). There is a large inviting balcony to relax on and the neighborhood is quiet. Parking is OK, but we had 2 cars, so one was parked in a narrow area off the road and down the hill on top of a cliff. The other car could be parked relatively near the house on the street. There was never any competition for those 2 spots so it worked out very well. The accommodations downstairs are OK, but all the bedding materials need to be replaced, especially the pillows. Or, bring your own. The curtains are musty and need cleaning, along with the living room rug which we rolled up and put away until we left. The living room leather furniture shown in the photos was replaced with stuffed white couches which are never easy to keep clean, so we had to be careful not stain them. The dining room table is in a confined area that desperately needs slat blinds to keep the heat of the sun at bay, but has a gorgeous view. The dining table is a picnic table. The throw pillows came in handy as seating cushions at the table. The pool is wonderful and refreshing and nice to have after a day of traveling around and being on the go. All the lounge chairs are quite comfortable. The owners are quite nice and very responsive to issues. Overall, we were very happy and pleased with these accommodations. The space works very well for family's with children and it has a nice secluded area downstairs by the pool. On the other hand, if you are two couples, it works better for one couple upstairs and the other couple downstairs -- each couple having their own private bath area as well as outside sitting areas. The property is beautifully maintained and the view is the best! The sunrises are gorgeous! You couldn't ask for a nicer vacation rental.

A lovely villa in a beatiful location
We have just enjoyed a very enjoyable two weeks at Les Tres Oliveres! You have a lovely villa in a beautiful location and we would definitely recommend it (and already have!). The weather was very good, we made maximum use of the pool and enjoyed many visits to Begur, as well as Barcelona and other nearby towns and villages. Throw in some diving lessons nearby and a day at the water park and our holiday was complete!
The villa is perfectly situated in a quite area, has a lovely garden and was very well equipped for our teenage family. Hopefully we'll be back there again!

Fabulous location, beautiful furnishings, stocked with every home comfort and a HEATED POOL!
We've spent a fantastic week in high season at Les Tres Oliveres. What a super location - the view is even better - exactly as you say in your description John. Despite it being such a busy time of year we found no problem getting tables in restaurants, Begur town centre is wonderful and we loved wandering around the boutique shops as well as dining out and the beaches are amazing. We loved Aiguafreda and Sa Tuna - awesome snorkelling, clear and warm water and no problem finding space to sit - it's a bit like going back in time in the best way possible - and everything in such easy walking distance. The coastal path that apparently takes you around much of the Costa Brava (we didn't find out for ourselves just how far it stretched as the sun came out and it was too hot) was beautiful and a great thing to do on a cloudy day but there was only a brief morning so our exploration didn't go as far as we'd planned.
The villa is seriously home from home - I love that we could even bring the coffee pods with us! Every detail has been thought through so carefully - we loved that you had the right glass for every drink we came up with! It was hard to leave in fact we forced ourselves out on day three and then took in everything we could over and over again!
John's communication is ace. Every question was addressed and nothing was too much trouble. And the pool is so warm - we couldn't get the kids out of it and practically had to drag them to the beach.
We were only back in England a matter of minutes before we booked up for next year. Same time same place please! Thanks John and Sian. This place is a real find and we just know we'll be back time and again.

Amazing villa
Photos do not do justice to this villa! Because of the expansive outdoor space, the home is much larger than the square footage might indicate, and is suited perfectly for a group of 6. Kitchen is well-equipped and the layout provides privacy for a group. The home is well-maintained and the garden is beautiful. Beaches are walkable--some more of a distance than others, and there are a number of food options. Begur, with its many restaurants, is closeby. Highly recommend this property.

Homely villa in a lovely area of Catalonia
We have just spent a lovely week at Les Tres Oliveres. It is an older style villa but very homely. Its age means its benefits from a beautiful mature garden which gives you complete privacy from the neighbouring villas. The villa was spotless on arrival and the very comprehensive directions provided by the owner very easy to follow. The main feature of the villa is the outside space with many different comfortable areas to sit and relax and enjoy the sun or the shade depending on your preference. We had a couple of very minor issues while we were there, but these were very quickly dealt with by the owner and the managing agents. The villa is situated in a quiet residential area and if you want somewhere with a lot of nightlife, this isn't for you. If you want a comfortable well equipped villa in an area with lots of beautiful coves and little restaurants, you won't do better

Excellent Villa with stunning views
You won't be disappointed choosing this lovely villa. Located in the most beautiful position we have ever seen. Waking each morning to the most spectacular view of the sea from this beautiful little cove. The outside space at Les Tres Oliveres was really well thought out and designed and the furniture was extremely comfortable. The pool is a very good size with plenty of space around it for sunbathing. The food in this part oF Spain is truly fantastic. The English owners couldn't have been more helpful. Can't wait to come back again!!

The owner was a pleasure to deal with and extremely accomodating. I highly reccommend this villa as a place to "get away".
We really enjoyed tasting the flavor of local catalonia and staying in the villa gave us the feel of being locals vs. staying in a hotel.
The views are better than any of the pictures show. There is shopping close by, but I reccommend car hire, as it gave us a great deal of freedon to move around the countryside at will.

We had a really wonderful family holiday in Les Tres Oliveres. The setting and views were absolutely idyllic and so tranquil. Having the grass around the pool was lovely for our 3 year old and so much safer than concrete. Unfortunately, also having a one year old crawler, we just had to keep a close eye on him all the time.
Our only request would be to have a sun shade/umbrella on the balcony so that we could sit with the children in the shade at breakfast, as it was so hot whilst we were there that sitting inside was a little uncomfortable.
That's just a tiny gripe but it really didn't dimish our enjoyment. Your welcome book was especially useful and we enjoyed some delicious meals in very picturesque settings.
We would definitely love to return one day as we so enjoyed the region too.

We were delighted with our stay at "Les Tres Olivers". It is a superbb property, spotlessly clean and very well maintained. Although the property can sleep six it is very compact. The swimming pool and garden are wonderful just not very suitable for a one year old.
The house is situated in a great location with wonderful sea views. A car though is essential as there is so much to see and do. We particulary loved trying out the restaurants that John mentioned in his welcome booklet. It is lovely also to take the walk along the cliffs to Se Reiera .
We would definetly recommend both the property and the area to others and hope to return again in the near future.
5.0
The villa was just as wonderful as we imagined. However, the views were even more incredible! It was wonderful to sit and have morning coffee on the the terrace.The location was perfect for exploring the Costa Brava region and your guest book offered a wealth of information on what to see and do in the area. The villa was perfect for my two young boys, and I wouldn't hesitate recommending your villa to families with young children.
