Villa des Oliviers, Montpellier's "little Versailles
Before booking!
Welcome to our family 🌿 home
We would like to point out that this is our main residence, and not an accommodation solely dedicated to seasonal rentals. You will therefore find all the comforts of a real inhabited home: fully equipped kitchen, crockery, spices, games, books, small appliances and everyday objects... in short, a lively, warm and fully inhabited house.
We simply ask that you take care of it as if it were your own, including the materials, equipment and belongings provided.
We live here all year round with our two little daughters aged 4 and 6, who will be happy to share some toys with the passing 😊 children We just appreciate finding them tidy and in good condition after your stay.
We also have a dog: despite careful cleaning before each arrival, some traces of life may remain. If you are looking for a totally sanitised place or if you are very allergic to animals, this house will probably not be the best choice.
On the other hand, if you like authentic houses, full of charm and soul, then you should feel at home here. This is also, in our opinion, the whole spirit of platforms like Airbnb: to share a sincere and welcoming place to live.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa des Oliviers in Castries. The check-in was easy and all information was very clear. The house was very spacious and clean. We had the house all to ourselves and our privacy was respected very much. Our family enjoyed taking care of the animals around the house. The air conditioning was welcome due to the high temperatures outside. I would highly recommend this property to other families. The contact with the host Anaïs was perfect, everything was explained clearly and if you had any questions you could always contact her. Thank you very much Anaïs and family for this beautiful holiday!

Merci Elke pour votre commentaire ! Je suis vraiment heureuse de vous avoir eu chez nous. Vous avez tellement pris bien soin de notre cocon, un peu comme si vous en étiez les propriétaires ! C'est très appréciable.
