Why I started this
Hi, I’m Kasia, founder of Golden Rock Villas, and I’m thrilled to welcome you into our world of real estate excellence!
After 10+ years of transforming operations across industries – including senior roles in hospitality – I’ve had the chance to work with some of the most forward-thinking companies out there. From streamlining processes and leading top-performing teams to adopting cutting-edge tech, I’ve always focused on delivering outstanding results and unforgettable experiences.
But I didn’t just want to support change – I wanted to lead it. That’s why I founded Golden Rock Villas: to combine my operational expertise, hospitality mindset, and deep passion for real estate into something truly impactful.
I’ve worked closely with major platforms like Airbnb and Booking.com, as well as private buyers, sellers, and investors – also bringing the experience I gained as Director for Spain at a leading ultra-luxury travel agency to deliver smooth, high-end experiences rooted in local knowledge and global standards.
As a certified and homologated real estate agent in Catalunya and Spain, I offer professional, legally compliant services across the property spectrum – whether you’re looking to buy, sell, invest, or turn your property into a high-performing holiday rental.
Fluent in Polish, Spanish and English, and deeply connected to both the Catalan and broader Spanish markets, I stay ahead of trends, regulations, and opportunities – so you don’t have to.
Thank you for trusting us – your goals are our priority, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
