Holiday home for max. 8 persons
Olonne-sur-Mer, Pays de la Loire, (Vendée), France

“Pool very cold needs heating 15-20 deg C during our stay only cleaned once during our two weeks ,seating in main Lounge insufficient not suitable for 6 persons as advertised ,dangerous pouring kettle and no oven gloves in Kitchen, no hand basin in Toilet to wash hands, Bedrooms quite small also beds are terrible and really unacceptable for what you are paying , bed linen cheap and washed out some of the blankets had animal hairs on them. Madam who meets you has no English when we were assured during prior correspondence that we would be met by English speaking owners representative, fortunately we speak a little French however when explaining details and counting items etc this created some problems . As a family we have been living in several French Villas over the past 7 to 8 years and this is the first poor one we have experienced , this Villa is promoted cleverly showing pool and garden area mainly , lounge and dinning areas not now as depicted in advertisement . . We will not be back.” “Pool very cold needs heating 15-20 deg C during our stay only cleaned once during our two weeks ,seating in main Lounge insufficient not suitable for 6 persons as advertised ,dangerous pouring kettle and no oven gloves in Kitchen, no hand basin in Toilet to wash hands, Bedrooms quite small also beds are terrible and really unacceptable for what you are paying , bed linen cheap and washed out some of the blankets had animal hairs on them.

“Garden is the best thing going for this villa although the pool is unheated and only cleaned once in 2 week stay.
Beds were small and uncomfortable, bed linen and towels were worn and unacceptable. Spare blanket appeared to be covered in animal hair. Write up of the villa is misleading - certainly not just 1 kilometer from the beach (35 minute walk) and the lounge area has now been altered. Photos on the website are not representative of current arrangement. Also, not enough seating in lounge area for 6 people.” “Garden is the best thing going for this villa although the pool is unheated and only cleaned once in 2 week stay.

“Maison très propre et bien équipée, grand jardin et belle pisicine. Le quartier est calme.”

“Everything was clean and functional.
A spacious and wonderful garden with style and charme.
The kids had a lot of fun with the pool (salty, no chlor).
Table tennis, beach ball net, all in good shape.
A guarded beach is a 15 min drive away, but the ocean is close by ( biking distance).
The beds are a bit short (190 cm?).”

“Het huisje is prima. Leuk en praktisch ingedeeld. Vooral in de keuken ontbreekt niets. Het grote minpunt zijn de bedden. Die zijn echt niet acceptabel, smal en klein (dat weet je dan nog vooraf) maar vooral de vering en de matrassen zijn erg. Als je dan toch al slecht geslapen hebt, is het dubbel jammer dat de overburen een houtzagerij hebben en daar gewoon "op tijd" beginnen. Daarnaast is het goed om toch vooraf al het inventaris te tellen. Bij aankomst doet "mevr" daar zeer nonchalant over maar bij vertrek loopt ze al weer een kwartier voor de afgesproken tijd, zonder ons gegroet te hebben, alles te tellen. Zo zijn er 5 ligbedden bij het zwembad net als toen we kwamen. En het zouden er toen opeens 6 moeten zijn. Gelukkig hadden we bij aankomst foto's gemaakt....
Het zwembad wordt overigens goed schoon gehouden.” “Het huisje is prima. Leuk en praktisch ingedeeld. Vooral in de keuken ontbreekt niets. Het grote minpunt zijn de bedden.
