The host, Jean-Louis, is excellent and friendly, and provides a wealth of information on the apartment itself as well as local dining options and activities.
It appears that he stays here himself in the off-season and it shows: the kitchen and laundry area are well-stocked for those who want to self-cater and all the rooms have an impressive array of AV equipment. The wifi is broadband and not shared, so works very well. The shower and bathroom look recently renovated and are immaculate.
The apartment is a short walk from the beach, so you don't have to shark around in the mornings for the very limited paid public parking spaces in the area; there is a dedicated and private parking space for your vehicle in the apartment complex if needed.
Pals beach is excellent for families and visitors in general, as it is one of the longer beaches in this part of the coast but is also much less touristy. This means it's not overcrowded even in peak season and, while there are international visitors, the majority of people are locals. After coming to the Costa Brava annually for 16 years, Pals is our preferred place to stay for its chilled vibe but variety of things to do.
One last thing: like most private residences in this part of Spain, there are fans to circulate the air on the hottest days and nights, but no air conditioning. Those used to maintaining fridge-level temperatures indoors in the summer should keep this in mind and adapt accordingly.
