Villa Isabel

Situated in a quiet part of the coastal town Altafulla, Villa Isabel is the home place of yoga teacher Isabella Welsch and the Athayoga Center Altafulla.

You can come stay in Villa Isabel by renting one of our 3 furnished apartments. Sizing and amenities offered vary per apartment and can be discussed with you to ensure we fit your needs. Isabella can speak with you in English, German, and Spanish.

The beautiful villa is surrounded by some 2200 m² large park-like garden with a saltwater pool, sun beds, terraces, a lounge area and diverse flora.

There is no limit to relaxation. You can choose to stroll through our Mediterranean garden, swim in our beautiful saltwater pool, lay down on our hammocks under the sun, or meditate under our centuries-old olive trees.

Cozy and recently renovated, this property is within a short walking distance of everything you need, from the castle and the historic center of Altafulla, the beach, restaurants, shops or the train-station.
