Can Puig: Costa Brava area
Sleeps 8 + 1 | Bedrooms 4 | Bathrooms 3 | Size 220m2
It’s hard to think of a better location than Can Puig to enjoy a casual Catalan vacation with friends or family.
Just 2 minutes' walk to the bustling centre of Cadaques, this house offers an unbeatable proximity hard to find elsewhere.
Originally an old fisherman’s house, the property was restored and enlarged by its present owners, and offers today plenty of comfort and aesthetic pleasure with its attention to detail and personal touches. Unlike many hundreds of Costa Brava villa rentals, Can Puig is unique, because it’s a cosy house that feels lived in, a house with a soul. A true luxury vacation villa in Spain.
The French doors in all the bedrooms fill the interior with light, and create a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow, providing access to the outdoor living spaces: terraces, shaded dining, and the pool area, all with stunning vistas overlooking the town. Dining al fresco by the pool here is absolutely idyllic.
The property is distributed on two levels, with the master bedroom and its wonderful terrace being independent on the top floor, and the rest of the bedrooms on the ground floor.
The local town of Cadaqués, with its whitewashed houses lining the narrow sloping streets and its rocky bays on either side of the harbour (which is still a working fishing port), it is a genuinely charming little place with a relaxed, slightly bohemian atmosphere. But at the same time it possesses a sophistication born out of its years of association with artists such as Dali, Picasso and other renowned intellectuals. In the town you will find a Monday market, three supermarkets, and many small shops. There are also bars, cafes, restaurants, banks, pharmacies, a dentist and a medical clinic.
Can Puig has a heated swimming pool which can be heated in the shoulder months of the season - please ask for details.
Strictly no pets allowed.

Area information
Enjoying a peaceful position above Cadaqués, this property combines spectacular views over the whitewashed old town and the Bay of Cadaqués with an exceptionally convenient location close to the sea. The waterfront and coast are just a two-minute walk away, while the historic centre and main beach can be reached in around five minutes on foot. This makes it easy to enjoy the village’s restaurants, beaches and narrow historic streets while returning to a quieter setting with wonderful views across the bay.
Beaches & coastal landscapes
- Platja Gran: The main beach of Cadaqués lies at the heart of the waterfront and is only a few minutes’ walk from the property. Surrounded by whitewashed houses, cafés and restaurants, it provides an easy way to enjoy the sea while taking in the atmosphere of the village.
- The coves of Cadaqués: Beyond the main beach, the coastline is dotted with numerous small rocky and pebble coves, often framed by Mediterranean vegetation and remarkably clear waters. Sa Conca, Es Poal and Llané are among the nearby places where visitors can enjoy a quieter swim.
- Cadaqués coastline & boat trips: The rugged shoreline around the village is particularly impressive from the water, with boat excursions and boat rentals offering the chance to discover secluded coves, dramatic cliffs and some of the less accessible sections of the Cap de Creus coast.
Art & cultural heritage
- Old Town of Cadaqués: Just a short walk from the property, the historic centre preserves the distinctive character of the former fishing village, with narrow winding streets, whitewashed houses and traditional rastell stone paving. The Church of Santa Maria rises above the old town and offers beautiful views over the bay.
- Salvador Dalí House-Museum in Portlligat: Dalí’s former home and studio is located on the coast at nearby Portlligat, where the artist lived and worked for around forty years. The house preserves the unique spaces he created and offers an insight into the landscape that inspired much of his work.
- Far de Cala Nans: A scenic coastal route from Cadaqués leads to this historic lighthouse overlooking the Mediterranean. The walk follows the shoreline and Camí de Ronda, with beautiful views back towards the village and across the rugged coastline.
Nature & landscapes
- Cap de Creus Natural Park: A spectacular protected landscape where the mountains meet the Mediterranean, characterised by dramatic rock formations, steep cliffs, hidden coves and vegetation shaped by the Tramuntana winds. Its combination of terrestrial and marine environments makes it one of the most distinctive natural areas in Catalonia.
- Paratge de Tudela: One of the most remarkable areas of Cap de Creus, where wind and erosion have sculpted the rocks into extraordinary natural forms surrounded by sea and sparse Mediterranean vegetation. These surreal formations famously inspired Salvador Dalí.

Testimonials
We stayed for a week in spectacular Cadaques. An absolutely stunning villa (Can Puig), so homely and filled with interesting books, artwork and homewares, not to mention a magical view of the bay of Cadaques. We were very impressed with Charming Villas exceptional service, from Richard (manager) and Dominique who welcomed us to the house. Will definitely use again.

Dream Vacation - Cadaques
Our family of 5 gives our vacation with Charming Villas a excellent rating starting long before we arrived in Cadeques. Both Richard and Sara did an outstanding job of helping us design a custom vacation. Starting with our choice of villas - Can Puig was phenomenal! The home was well stocked, the view was heavenly, and our pool was used daily. Charming Villas was like a personal concierge service - helping us find adventures and scheduling reservations so we would not miss out on once in a life time opportunities. Everything from a private tour of Girona & Besalu, dining at a Michelin restaurant, a boat cruise of the coast, and a private cooking class with a local expert chef. We would highly recommend Charming Villas to anyone and hope we can return one day and create another breathtaking vacation. Our memories will last a lifetime!

It is a rare and welcome treat to find a rental villa that lives up to and exceeds your expectations. The house is very special as it so clearly reflects the taste and care of the owners. We found every thing we needed in the kitchen unlike many properties where you have to buy everything afresh.
Richard was an outstanding help organizing things in advance especially El Celler de Can Roca
Our only observation is that first time visitors to Cadaques need to be warned of the mountain road . It does act as a bit of a restriction on touring in the area although chilling in then for a week is no hardship
We will book again with Charming Villas
