Overview
If you love open-plan living, this is the holiday home for you. Once inside this whitewashed, contemporary villa, you'll instantly get a sense of space and light. From the living areas with floor-to-ceiling windows, and the spacious bedrooms, which are boldly minimalist, it's a great space to enjoy with family and friends.
Take time to relax in the modern, yet cosy living area, but don't worry about missing out. This sociable, open-plan style of living means the kitchen and dining area are within your sight. And what a sight! The glossy kitchen, with its obligatory island, overlooks the dining spaces inside and out, and the considerable glass doors let in lots of natural light. Heavenly!
Luckily for its guests, the south-facing garden means you'll get sun all day. So, pull up a lounger on the perfectly-manicured lawn, surrounded by pine trees and mountain views, and soak it up. And when you're ready for a dip, check out the fantastic pool with reflective green tiles and Roman steps that'll cool you off in no time.
Ideal for a family or group of friends, the four-bedroom villa is made for people who enjoy inspiring but inviting surroundings and interiors. You just need to stand in front of the impressive staircase and notice the boutique-style hotel finishes to realise this is one uber-modern residence.
And what's more, Villa Sentido is just a short walk away from the beautiful crescent-shaped beach at Tamariu. This lovely sandy and the child-friendly beach is by far one of the best on the Costa Brava, and the little-whitewashed village of Tamariu is certainly photogenic.
Sheltered, with a promenade and a few restaurants and bars, you'll be well catered for. And with snorkelling, kayaking, and motorboats available, it's the perfect way to spend the day. If you want to venture a little further, the medieval town of Begur is well worth a visit.
What you should know…
- A slight quirk of the villa is that you enter the house from the bedroom (street) level
- Three of the bedrooms share one bathroom on the first floor, but there is another bathroom on the lower ground floor
- The swimming pool is not fenced, so children should be supervised at all times

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa SentidoAccording to the British Telegraph newspaper, the beach at Tamariu ranks as one of the best beaches on the Costa Brava. Embraced by pine-clad headlands, the horseshoe-shaped beach is very pretty, family-friendly and sheltered.
Just behind the beach is the pedestrian promenade, where there are some cafes, restaurants and beach gear shops. Parents can happily while away a little time in the shade, sipping whatever they fancy, with their children, only yards away from them, play safely on the sand.
It probably won’t be the first time you’ve heard of it, in this neck of the woods, but Tamariu was originally a small fishing village. It has definitely retained some of its charm and identity, and its beautiful south facing sandy bay offers a romantic destination for lovers. It’s also a good choice for families seeking a quieter Costa Brava resort.
The activity in the village will peak in August, but as yet there aren’t any English bars or breakfasts. Neither are their high-rise hotels on the landscape, only a blend of greens, blues and sandy shades with pretty whitewashed buildings in the foreground.
