The owner of the boat would not message us a way of getting in. VRBO refuse to refund us and we’ve had our holiday ruined. Haven’t slept for the last two days. This was supposed to be a treat for my family and I but it’s turned into a nightmare. We never have this issue with a similar company which we have used for 6 other bookings on this trip. I will never book through VRBO or Expedia (their parent company) ever again.
Séjour atypique au cœur de Malestroit. La péniche est très bien placée dans la ville, toutes les commodités sont à proximité. Petit bémol, il n'est pas bien précisé sur l'annonce qu'il n'y a pas de douche.
Deux nuits passées dans une péniche tout près des canards dans un paysage magnifique.
Régine et Laurent sont super.
Petit bémol, la quantité d’eau à disposition était insuffisante malgré notre vigilance.
