Tucked away in the picturesque hills and just a short walk from the La Fosca beaches in Palamós, Mas del Vent is a unique estate where history, architecture, and nature come together. Originally known as Mas Brugarol in 1421 and once part of the domain of the Castle of Sant Esteve, this storied property has been lovingly restored by the award-winning RCR Arquitectes. The result is a stunning blend of timeless heritage and contemporary design.
Today, Mas del Vent opens its doors as an exclusive venue for private events, including weddings, celebrations, and special (corporate) gatherings. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a grand occasion, this exceptional setting offers a truly memorable experience. We invite you to book a visit and explore the estate in person – discover the beauty, charm, and possibilities of Mas del Vent.
Mas del Vent is a living testament to Catalonia’s rich heritage. The grounds underwent a meticulous restoration and adaptation between 2003 and 2010 by RCR Arquitectes, who carefully preserved its traditional features, such as wooden beams, stone walls, and ceramic floors, while integrating contemporary elements like steel structures. This fusion of classic craftsmanship and minimalist modernity is the hallmark of the design, bringing together the best of both worlds.
One of the most striking features of the estate is its Romanesque-style cloister, acquired in the 1950s. This architectural gem adds an air of mystery and grandeur to the place, offering a tranquil space to reflect and take in the beauty surrounding you. The cloister’s historical charm and its surrounding gardens are complemented by sculptures from celebrated artists like Medina-Campeny and Xavier Escribá, whose works adorn the estate, further enriching its aesthetic appeal. Mas del Vent’s historical significance is further underscored by its inclusion in the Inventory of Heritage Architecture of Catalonia, a tribute to its enduring allure and cultural importance.
At the heart of Mas del Vent’s restoration lies the vision of RCR Arquitectes, whose work perfectly bridges the past and the present. The tower, minimalistic in design yet bold in execution, stands as a modern symbol of elegance and integration with the natural surroundings. Its sleek, contemporary materials provide a striking contrast to the rustic, stone construction of the original farmhouse. The design creates a timeless dialogue between heritage and innovation.
Set against the stunning Mediterranean backdrop of the Costa Brava, Mas del Vent is enveloped by rolling hills, expansive gardens, and outdoor spaces. It provides a perfect setting for a leisurely stroll, connecting with nature, or simply breathing in the fresh coastal air while taking in the spectacular views. Adjacent to the gardens, you’ll find our greenery.
