Perfect Family Holiday Home
The host, Jean Claude was extremely welcoming and friendly. Jean Claude was very patient and spoke enough English to fill in the gaps in my French! Gave us a tour of the house and explained things clearly about waste and recycling collections, WiFi, when he would be attending to the pool. Etc.
The house was clean, spacious and had its own charm & personality. Coffee maker, big fridge-freezer, the washing machine & drying rack made quick work of our washing, A/C, a big TV to watch the Olympics. Dinner times were great, large table inside and outside. All the cookware & utensils you could need. Great gas BBQ outside too! There was enough room to keep our two cars off the road.
We spent a lot of time in the pool, which was excellent throughout the stay. Very clear and clean. The pool was perfect for the younger children (4 & 6) as there is a small ledge that runs all the way around the pool and wide steps at one end.
The area is exceptional, Fontvieille is a lovely small town. The Velorail was great fun for the kids. Arles is nearby with its fantastic Roman architecture, Saint Remy is bursting with life and is a great spot for dinner. Les Baux-de-Provence is very picturesque. Pont du Gard is always a favourite for us (take some swimwear!). If you want some beach time, Saintes Maries de la mer is the place to go. Don't miss the amazing fort town of Aigues Mortes too!
All in all a fantastic holiday and we would simply love to stay in this house again!
Thank you
