#### Location
This fantastic villa is located in a privileged spot in the Maritime area of Altafulla, just a 3-minute walk from the beach. The town is situated on the Costa Dorada, in the Tarragona province of Catalonia, just an hour drive from Barcelona itself. The train station is a 15-minute walk away, so you can travel about with ease, exploring the beautiful towns and beaches along the coast.

Altafulla is a charming fishing town, dating back to the Roman era. The narrow streets are picturesque, framed by ancient buildings that add character and allure to the town, perfect for lazy evenings ambling around and exploring. Altafulla Castle sits perched atop the cliffs, a romantic setting with the sea crashing on the rocks below and the sandy beach stretching out along the coastline.

Although it is small and quaint, the town is increasingly popular for tourists, with shops, bars, and restaurants slotted in amongst the town's rich history. Within a 5-minute stroll of your front door, you can enjoy the array of traditional and seafood restaurants, as well as international cuisines – there is something for everyone. Tarragona City is less than 20-minutes away with an even larger selection of eateries, from fine-dining to relaxed, family-friendly restaurants, just make sure you enjoy some of the local classics.

Staying at the villa, you are only a 3-minute walk from Altafulla beach, so you can wake up and stroll down, taking a dip in the sea before even eating breakfast. The beach itself offers a golden stretch of sand, with a lively restaurant, showers and water sports, perfect for kids. The beach has been awarded the European Blue Flag for cleanliness, making it particularly popular with families.

If you are looking to explore outside of the town, then the city of Tarragona, capital of the province is well worth a visit – an outstanding example of a Roman Town. The surrounding area is filled with archaeological sites, including Villa El Munts, known as the most important archaeological Roman site in Catalonia. The theme park Port Aventura is a fun spot for kids, and the nearby seaside resorts of Salou and La Pineda offer something for the whole family.
