Welcome to Valentino's House & Pool.
Located in the town of Vilassar de Dalt, a charming village in the Maresme 20 kilometres from Barcelona, a great place to enjoy the Mediterranean climate, local cuisine, and natural surroundings.
This 19th-century house with a swimming pool has been beautifully restored. Situated in the main village square, but secluded and peaceful, mingle with the locals to experience the real Catalan culture.
This beautifully restored 19th-century house is located in the heart of the village square, where all the local activity takes place. Once a textile factory, parts of the house date back to the 17th century. Once inside the property, the only sounds you'll hear are birds singing and the occasional toll of the old church bell, which dates back to the 16th century!
The house has been carefully restored to create two unique spaces. However, we have maintained the upstairs bedroom in its original state as it dates back to the 17th century.

Important Notes
Stairs & Mobility: The house has multiple levels with stairs, which may not be suitable for those with limited mobility.
Children's Safety: There are no security fences or railings on the outside stairs, so children must be supervised at all times.
🌿 Nature’s Little Visitors:
There are many trees, shrubs, and plants outside the house, so during the summer months, ants 🐜, mosquitos 🦟, bees 🐝, and other small insects may sometimes sneak into the house. This is completely normal in this kind of setting. We do not like to use harsh chemicals, as they’re bad for the environment 🌍 — but we do supply some insect spray if needed. The pool may also have leaves 🍃 and the occasional insect, despite regular cleaning. We hope this natural part of the setting won’t detract from your stay.
Historical Character:
This home has a rich history, with parts dating back to the 17th century. While the entire property has been lovingly restored, the upstairs bedroom has been kept in its original state to preserve its unique character. Due to the old wooden beams and historic, uneven walls, some dust may be present, which could affect those with allergies. Although the house is thoroughly cleaned before your arrival, this is part of the charm of staying in such a special place, and we hope it won’t detract from your experience.
