We a great family stay at this house in La Flotte. It's in a perfect location very close to the port and beach yet very peaceful. The outdoor space is landscaped to a very high standard and is a lovely relaxing space with lot's of space to park the car and bikes. The indoors is nicely decorated and furnished with a well-equipped kitchen and comfy beds. The rooms are all a good size and perfect for a large family.

The listing is inaccurate as there is not any air conditioning at the property. The house is clean and well appointed. However the soft furnishings are minimal - no carpets or curtains. A minimal amount of bed linen and towels were supplied - only 1 medium bath towel per person. No hand towels or bath mats were provided. In the kitchen nothing was supplied, no bin bags, washing up liquid, cleaning cloths or basic supplies such as salt. Notwithstanding the above, we had an enjoyable stay and found the location convenient and quiet.

Bonjour, Je vous remercie pour votre avis. Je vous avais précisé de me contacter pour quoique ce soit et je suis désolé d'apprendre que vous n'avez pas bénéficié de la climatisation. Celle-ci ne se voit pas physiquement, mais fonctionne parfaitement par le plancher rafraîchisssant et la pompe à chaleur réversible, comme précisé sur certains avis de locataires. Il est vrai que j'ai supprimé les tapis à cause du sable souvent ramené de la plage, et aussi pour plus d'hygiène. Il y a des rideaux sur les fenêtres qui donnent sur rue, mais pas pour les autres ouvertures, puisqu'il n'y a pas de vis à vis. Je suis surpris qu'il n'y ait pas de sel dans le fond d'épicerie présent dans le placard à côté du four, mais je vérifierai. Quant aux sacs poubelles, je vais redemander à la femme de ménage de faire le nécessaire. Je vous remercie encore, et au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau.

Our second time at this house and it really is a perfect spot, and Alain a great host. La Flotte is charming and the house is so close to everything you need; plus the outdoor space was wonderful in sunny weather. We hope to return!

We all loved the house, there was plenty of space both indoors and out. We particularly benefited from the shade outside from the roof and the umbrella. The keys were a bit tricky. The only thing we would have added was some plug in fans in the bedrooms at night, as it was very hot the week we stayed. We had missed the information about needing to either bring bed linen/ towels, or rent them from a local company.The kitchen was very well equipped, and the lounge was comfortable in the evenings. Our girls enjoyed playing French Monopoly! The bedrooms were spacious and had plenty of storage space. The location was near to the harbour but also very peaceful. The host was super helpful and communicated quickly. We had an excellent holiday and would love to come back next year!

We couldn't have asked for a nicer villa for our stay. Alain was very helpful throughout. The villa is in a great location for enjoying La Flotte and is well equipped with everything we needed, plus has the most lovely, private wrap around courtyard. We hope to return again!

Exceeded expectations.

The property was well equipped and spacious. Ideally located for short walks to the market, boulangerie and restaurants in the port. Close to cycle paths for the rest of the island. We will always have fond memories of the beautiful village of La Flotte. The only downside for us personally was an uncomfortable, thin mattress and poor pillows. Otherwise comfort in the lounge was good and it was warm on cold days in April. Parking for 2 big cars one in front of the other meant gates had to be left open. Alain answered our questions quickly and helpfully, thank you.

Good property to explore La Flotte and ile de Re

This is a lovely comfortable property which is an excellent holiday house to explore La Flotte and Ile de Re. Central location and a lovely large living and dining room, with a large outdoor space to enjoy as well which is very rare in Ile de Re, coupled with parking into which we fitted (just) two large cars as an added bonus. A lovely outdoor BBQ too. The contents of the house inside are functional in terms of design rather than luxurious and the kitchen is small but if you are not planning on doing a lot of cooking and enjoying the many excellent restaurants that should not be an issue. There are no sheets included and only two shower rooms (one ensuite) and a separate toilet (making two in total). Alain was superb in providing access and answering any issues which arose. Definitely an excellent host.

Gorgeous house in fabulous location

This is a lovely, comfortable house in a pretty, quiet street that is just moments away from the quayside. La Flotte is lovely and a great base for exploring the island. We have visited them all and La Flotte remains our favourite village. The light and space in the house means it is a real pleasure to stay there, even with several people, and the super wrap-around terrace and outside area make such a difference to the holiday. It's a fab area to eat outside and sometimes it's just perfect to lie on one of the sun-beds and read your book. We would love to come back and stay again! The house is very well equipped and my only suggestions for extras would be one or two items for roasting/baking in the oven (even we didn't eat out every night) and kitchen cloths to dry crockery or to pick things up from the oven/stove. Alain was a thoughtful and responsive host. Merci Alain, a bientôt!

The location of this house is fantastic - it is conveniently located near the port but out of the busy, more commercial sections. Alain had great communication and as we arrived at the end of the heat wave, made sure the climate control was on for our arrival and monitored the temperature of house throughout our stay. Coming from the US, the open air concept of the house was unusual for us but the house remained surprisingly insect-free. The backyard is a little oasis and the perfect spot to relax. We had 7 people in our group; the house was the perfect size for us!

WE PENTECOTE

La maison est telle que décrite dans l'annonce, plaisante et lumineuse avec vue sur un extérieur complètement clos, Les enfants ont donc pu profiter du jardin composé de graviers agrémentés de végétation en toute sécurité. Le stationnement des voitures sous le porche nécessite un peu de dextérité mais est un vrai plus car la rue est étroite..... coté bémols, l'escalier menant à la chambre des enfants est raide et étroit et ne convient aux enfants en bas âge, impossible de laisser notre pt fils de 3 ans l'emprunter seul. Dans une moindre mesure, nous aurions aussi apprécié avoir à disposition quelques fournitures de base à notre arrivée. Au moins un rouleau de papier toilette à dans chaque WC, une éponge, du liquide vaisselle, de même qu' une buche et des allumettes pour allumer la cheminée le temps que la maison se réchauffe. En effet compte tenu de notre arrivée tardive, le super marché était malheureusement fermé. Nonobstant ces quelques points négatifs nous avons passé un agréable séjour en famille.
