Really a great house in Collioure
Super location on a quiet street just 3 min walk to one of the beaches in Collioure.
The house are really well equipped with everything and a beautiful hacienda garden and view over Collioure
Our adult family of five stayed In Thibaud’s house for a few days. It is a lovely, very well equipped house and I had excellent communication with Thibaud. The location is ideal for walking, the sea, the restaurants and shops.
We had a great time and would love to return.

dear Marie, thanks for taking the time to leave a review about your recent stay, it was a pleasure welcoming you and its now even more satisfying to know that you had an enjoyable stay
we hope to welcome you back soon
sincerely yours

Perfect for we two. House very private tho’ only 3 or 4 minutes walk to beach and bustle of town. We felt we were staying in the country! Great garden and veranda and we loved the courtyard. House a lovely mix of old and new. Great parking space outside which is essential for Collioure! Great instructions for getting there and house very secure. Helped make a wonderful break
We very much enjoyed our 7week stay here. The house is spacious and quirky with lots of outdoor space too, if you can cope with the mosquitos. It is well equipped with everything you need for your holiday. The walk to the beach and town is fine but us being pensioners in our late 70's found the uphill return challenging. Maybe the exercise will have done us good though.
We also found the mattress on the main bed quite hard and think a topper would improve this greatly. We were very comfortable and happy with the house and facilities.
Thibaud's places is truly special. There's a ton of outdoor space you can relax in, and much of it has incredible views of the town and water below. You can walk out of the house and immediately be walking on beautiful winding trails up into the hills, or head down towards town and be at the water's edge in about 4 minutes.
Check in was simple and Thibaud was responsive and helpful.
The place has its quirks and imperfections, but all were within what we considered to be charming. Guests looking for a super refined finish with every little extra thought of and in place should balance that against the incredible location and views this place provides.
If you're traveling with a couple of children they can have their own space with separate entry and bathroom and sitting area which is really nice for separation. Their sleeping area is just a small loft but fine for youngsters.
We had a fantastic time and would stay here again If the opportunity arose.

Collioure house on hill
We were 3 adults on holiday, husband, wife, and adult daughter. We enjoyed staying in the house. It had many very good features but a number of drawbacks. The kitchen was excellent. It appeared to have been updated recently and the equipment - cooker - fridge- dishwasher etc were excellent. There was a large quantity of nice plates etc. and enough glasses to hold a party! It seems petty to mention that there were only 3 coffee mugs - but we had to keep washing them!
The major problem we had was with the lay-out of the property, and the fact that the "end room" (a studio with mezzanine bed) was unusable because we were there during the June heatwave. That area had no airconditioning - and the bed on the 'shelf' was a couple of metres from the exposed roof tiles and was baking hot. We closed the door into that area as it was unusable. The airconditioning in the other two rooms worked very well. We found that the sofa in the sitting area was a fold-up bed and that was where our adult daughter slept. It meant that we had no sitting area in the living room/kitchen and she had to access the bathroom through our bedroom.
Overall the property was very clean and attractively decorated. The garden/courtyard area is lovely with shelter from trees and umbrella, but during the heatwave it was too hot to eat there. We had very good contact and information from the owner prior to our departure. We had no contact at all with the "managing/cleaning company" - the key was left for us and they were not in touch. The washbasin in the bathroom was slow to clear when we arrived and gradually became almost blocked. We were helped by the neighbour who contacted the owner's father and the problem was quickly dealt with. Collioure is beautiful and the location of the house is great - although up a steep hill which we knew about - and there are great views across the countryside. It is within easy walking distance to the town and beach and we swam every day. Our difficulties about the house were compounded by the heatwave which was unfortunate in mid June. Overall a lovely property in a good location, - would be perfect for a couple.

Dear John,
thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review in regards to your recent stay in our house, very happy to hear that you had an overall very good stay !
I have well received your drawbacks and i am pleased to inform you that an air conditioning unit will be installed within the week inside the separate room to face warmer temperature in summer
in addition to the above I will indeed have a look at cups, we do offer 6 expresso cups but probably another set of larger cups would be better
i wish you a wonderful summer and look forward welcoming you back soon in Collioure
regards
Thibaud
A perfect location and house with lot of privacy. We enjoyed the patio very much when temperature is high. The kitchen is perfect for cooking and washing (machine). Parking with a big car is a challenge as you need to stay very close to the house but after some practice it goes easier. Our stay at Collioure was enjoyable and maybe we will return

Dear Guest,
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed the location, privacy, and especially the patio during the warmer days—it’s one of my favorite spots too. It’s great that the kitchen and laundry worked well for you as well.
I appreciate your honest note about parking with a larger car. You're absolutely right that it can be a bit of a puzzle at first, but I'm glad it got easier with practice. That’s really helpful feedback for future guests who may be driving bigger vehicles.
It would be a pleasure to welcome you back to Collioure anytime. Thank you again for staying and for taking the time to share your experience!
Klein gezellig huisje op een prachtige en rustige locatie aan de voet van saint Elme in een doodlopend straatje. Op 2 minuten loopafstand van het strand. Grote patio, en smaller balkon aan achterkant van het huis. Daarachter ligt de tuin die wat verwilderd is. Het huisje heeft een aparte indeling maar dat maakt het ook uniek. Keuken voorziet in alle comfort. Ook föhn aanwezig in badkamer.

Hartelijk dank voor deze mooie en uitgebreide review! Wat fijn om te lezen dat je hebt genoten van de rustige ligging, het strand op loopafstand en het grote patio. En je hebt gelijk: de indeling is inderdaad wat bijzonder, maar dat geeft het huisje juist zijn charme, vind ik zelf ook.
Dank ook voor je begrip over de tuin – die is inderdaad wat verwilderd, maar dat hoort een beetje bij de natuurlijke sfeer hier. Fijn dat de keuken en de föhn ook gewaardeerd werden!
Als je ooit nog eens terugkomt naar Collioure, dan ben je van harte welkom. Nogmaals bedankt voor je fijne feedback!
Fijne rustige plek vlak bij het strand en het centrum.

Dank je wel voor deze fijne feedback! Fijn dat je de rust hebt kunnen ervaren, terwijl je toch zo dicht bij het strand en het centrum zat. Precies dat maakt deze plek zo bijzonder. Hopelijk tot een volgende keer!
Maison délicieuse avec son patio, ses équipements et sa décoration sympathique. Nous aurions cependant préféré disposer du troisième lit double prévu dans la description.. Mais dans l'ensemble nous avons eu grand plaisir à séjourner à Collioure dans cette villa. Bon accueil et communication
C'est la deuxième fois que nous séjournons dans cette maison et nous nous y plaisons toujours autant. Tout est proche et facile : l'accès au port et à la plage, aux commerces, aux randonnées... L'hôte est accueillant et le confort bien pensé. La maison est calme et la détente certaine. Nous espérons y retourner bientôt.
Maison fonctionnelle . Atypique . Les plus : la Clim, belle cuisine toute aménagée espace à vivre assez grand , 2 salles de bain, le patio .
Propreté irréprochable . Linge de lit et serviettes fournis et en quantité .
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour .
La maison est à 500 m de la mer tout en étant retirée et surtout au calme . Beau patio avec mobilier de jardin .
Nous avons pu garer la voiture devant la maison car un emplacement est prévu . Et sur Collioure c’est un plus non négligeable .
Le premier jour nous avons vu le papa du propriétaire : très gentil , disponible et relationnel .
Nous avons également était en contact par téléphone avec Nancy qui s’occupe de l’intendance et du ménage . Relationnelle également .
Je terminerai par : Merci pour cet agréable séjour et merci pour ces belles prestations .
Collioure est une ville où il faut bon vivre . Nous y reviendrons avec grand plaisir .
Logement très agréable,atypique,plein de charme et vraiment proche du centre de Collioure mais quand même en pleine vegetation. Le patio est charmant et bien abrité du vent.La côte d'accès est bien raide mais à la fin de la semaine on la grimpe avec beaucoup plus de facilité .
Collioure est superbe et encore tranquille au mois de mai et on a bien profité des balades environnantes et même de quelques bain de mer très vivifiants car eau à 14 degrés .
Sehr ruhiger Ort, wenige Laufminuten zum kleinen Zentrum und Strand. Waren im der Osterwoche da. Weniger Touristen, aber im Sommer wird es wohl sehr voll...
Belle maison avec grande terrasse tres agréable. Idealement située pour visiter Collioure à pied.
Un bel atout : la climatisation ! Surtout si il y a une canicule comme on a eu lors de notre séjour !
Le gîte est conforme à l'annonce. Tout est parfait. Tous les commerces et les plages de Collioure facilement accessibles à quelques minutes à pied.
Le gîte est situé dans une impasse. Calme garanti. Le patio est très agréable. A l'intérieur tout est fonctionnel. Très bon contact avec le propriétaire
et procédures d'arrivée et de départ très aisées. RAS
Maison avec un très joli patio avec un magnifique oranger au calme tout en étant proche de la plage et du centre ville ...et avec une place de parking !
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette maison près du centre de Collioure mais dans un environnement paisible. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le grand patio et le jardin!
Nous avons passé près de 3 semaines dans la maison.
La maison se situe dans une petite rue avec très peu de passage car elle n’est autorisée qu’aux riverains.
Tout se fait à pied : Boulangerie, commerces, bars, restaurants … la première plage est en bas de la rue (300m).
La maison est propre avec une cuisine récente et bien équipée. La configuration de la maison est particulaire mais elle permet d’avoir deux zones indépendantes salle de douche/wc/chambre. Les 3 climatisations permettent de rafraichir rapidement des pièces par forte chaleur. La climatisation dans la mezzanine est effectivement indispensable quand il fait chaud.
La terrasse est sans doute le gros plus de cette maison car elle est au calme, grande et sans vis-à-vis.
La communication avec le propriétaire est facile et rapide.
Bref on a passé un agréablement moment et si on revient à Collioure on espère bien pouvoir revenir dans cette maison. ;)
Das Ferienhaus ist perfekt, um sich zu erholen, es bietet viel Platz und ist gut ausgestattet. Es ist ruhig u liegt gut, nur ein paar Gehminuten zum Ort, dem Strand und zum Einkaufen. Der Gastgeber ist überdies sehr freundlich.
Wir können das Haus nur weiterempfehlen!
