A PAUSA
ABOUT
A Pausa was built in the 70s by my grandfather as a family vacation home. An oasis lost in time, with no construction around it.
​
It was then a labour of love - the flourishing garden seemed to have sprung out of a fairy tale, the seashell shaped pool with its delightful diving board was perfect for relaxation and play, an orchard that blessed us with delicious fruits, and fragrant roses and wildly colourful flowers.
OUR ROOMS
7 bedrooms, not all of them created equal, but all equally cared for.
​
We want to share the feelings of magical childhood summers, a garden like sprung out of a fairy tale, and the love of what we do.
HAVE IT ALL
For big groups, events and parties it is possible to rent the whole place.
We love watching how the place changes character and mold to the needs of our big groups making for a always unique experience. Perfect for families and friends looking the privacy of a home combined with the comforts of a hotel.
