"Super house in an incredible location"
For my 60th birthday this year I decided on a big family holiday, we chose Casa Nova as it looked really beautiful and was big enough for all of us, 10 adults and 8 kids whose ages range from 1 -10.
We could not have been happier with our choice, from the moment we arrived and were greeted so warmly by Helena and then Servais to the all to quick departure 7 days later. It fulfilled all our hopes of a stress-free family gathering. We had intended to have day trips and dine out etc, but quickly realised this was not going to happen as we had everything we wanted right there, such a relaxing atmosphere we all felt very content to stay at the house, have barbecue’s and enjoy each others company.
We all appreciated the space with many seating areas and never felt on top of each other. The kids all played well together all week and I never heard one them complain about wanting to go anywhere. The ping pong table was a real hit, even though the kids turned it into a den thus cancelling the adults tournament! the pool was just perfect and one of the children even learnt to swim in it, what a memory for her!
Set in the middle of outstanding natural beauty with stunning views from every angle and walks to suit everyone, the house is sympathetically and tastefully decorated throughout and felt so homely straight away, the sound of the birds singing is just magical. All in all we had a really great holiday and would love to go back and do it all over again.
Thank you Servais and Helena for letting us stay at your beautiful house and thank you so much to Dominique who very patiently responded to all my endless emails with questions and helped with everthing we needed, you’re a star!

Me and my now husband chose to get married at Casa Nova, and stay for a week with our closest family and friends. It was a trip of a lifetime! Casa Nova is a magical place, set up in the hills, the villa is pure paradise. It is evident that the villa has been so carefully curated, and no element has been forgotten, as special touches are sprinkled throughout. The villa has a wonderful rustic meets luxury feel, with features such as a stone-crafted sink in the kitchen and sumptuous beds in every, very individual, bedroom. All the guests staying were blown away when they arrived.
The wedding day was incredible, we hosted the ceremony and dinner reception at Casa Nova, and you couldn’t dream a more memorable setting, with a view spanning the wild beauty of the national park. We had space for everything – even a live band.
The villa is 15 mins away from the supermarkets and 20 from Sitges, my now most favourite holiday destination. Despite the steep mountain terrain you need to endure to ferry to and from the villa, you soon forget about it as you take in the breathtaking nature.
Servais and Helena (the owners) are wonderful, and so involved in all their stunning properties. The love and passion they put into them sets them apart from other holiday homes. I cannot recommend Casa Nova enough – I just want to go back!

A once in a lifetime trip!
"One beautiful, magical place to visit!!"
Masia Victoria is absolutley beautiful and exactly as depicted in all the photographs. We booked this property as a destination wedding location in hopes that it would fulfill all the needs we had for our large family.
The masia is so large that even with 24 house guests and 10 more visiting there was plenty of space. The court yard provides a private yet spacious outdoor setting and plenty of gathering room for all the events we held. I can not say enough about how accommodating the entire staff was and how absolutely wonderful they treated us.
Besides booking the masia we used their catering services for a breakfast, a bridal shower, and the wedding. Every meal was exquisitely prepared and delicious. I would highly recommend Allen and his team for any catered event!! As far as Servias, Helena, Chris, and Dominique they were most accomodating and worked with me on every request I had and made this wedding an event to remember for all.

Dearest Servais and Helena,
What can we say but a huge thank you to you both and the magnificent Villa Catalina – you made all our dreams and wishes come true last week! We are sorry it’s taken so long to reply to you and to send out our thank you’s – we hit daily life back with a bump.
The honeymoon is not till the 18th! We’d just like to thank you both and your incredible team of staff who worked tirelessly and so hard to make our week so very special.We had the most magical week in the most perfect setting with the most glorious weather.
The fact that our case with all the wedding decorations didn’t arrive (and still hasn’t been found!) did certainly not put a dampener on things.
The villa in its grandeur sets the scene for the most picturesque stay it felt like being on stage with the most striking of backdrops. Everything from the rooms to the service to the food and the breakfasts outside was magical and we never wanted those moments to end. Your team of staff floated in and out barely noticed setting up tables fit for kings and then taking away all the mess after we had gorged on your delicious food all evening.
Servais the food and the quality of food you produced was out of this world. So unbelievably delicious and so confident in its serving and presentation. I have been a food PR for many years and found the delivery and taste of your cuisine absolutely sublime. And Helena’s home-cooked potato gratin (floede kartoffler as we call them) were delicious as was the incredible cured salmon canapees.
We cannot thank you enough for all you did for us during the week and also in the run up to the wedding and also a big thank you to Dominique who we sadly didn’t meet, but a big thank you to her, for answering our endless emails and requests. Always putting our minds and hearts at rest.
Thank you also for recommending the eccentric and wonderful Toby, fabulous and efficient Pip as well as totally cool Jo and Mingo and his team. Without all you wonderful people our wedding in Sitges would not have been possible.
We have had a week of fantastic flashbacks and we take with us very fond memories of an unforgettable week. We have totally fallen in love with the villa and Sitges and shall return to the area year upon year for sure.
The children had a magical time and were spoilt rotten and they loved the pool despite the fresh temperature.We wish you both all the best in your future and hope to see you again in the near future!
