  • I endorse all the previous comments about Serge and his apartment. This was my wife's first experience with VRBO and she kept asking me "Now how did you find this?" She was really pleased with the size of the apartment, the quiet bedroom, the computer, the nice bathroom and the local grocery store and restaurants. Serge was most helpful in helping us carry our luggage upstairs and arranging a cab to Versailles. The stairs might be a little hard for an older couple, but we climbed up just as many in the museums. We'd look forward to staying in this unit again! Richard in San Antonio

  • This was a lovely, warm, quiet, beautifully decorated apartment, about one block from the Louvre. It was the find of a lifetime. The owner is very kind and helpful, and he gave us a lot of help with a variety of concerns: sightseeing, restaurants, etc. We are saving our money to return. The apartment is a four floor walk-up, but the steps are easy to maneuver and not prohibitive. I wouldn't waste a second looking at other apartments. It was so lovely that we were glad to eat breakfast at the cozy dining room table with a lovely view and come home at night for dessert and wine. We saved a lot of money on food because the apartment was so inviting, with many stores around the corner where you could buy just about anything you wanted, from croissants to aspirin. Cindy

  • The apartment is a very chic mix of old Paris and modern conveniences. Immediately upon entering you are greeted with the old world charm of high ceilings, crown molding, original wood plank flooring, a fabulous marble (working) fireplace and those marvelous windows that stretch nearly to the ceiling and swing wide open to let in the sunny weather and the sweet sounds of Paris! All the modern conveniences are included in the updated kitchen (d/w, clothes washer too). The bath is very nicely updated, with separate soaking tub and open shower. The color scheme throughout the apt. is both soothing and aggressive and the lighting is great; dimmers everywhere so you can set any mood. It is very obvious that you are staying in someone's home, not just a business apt. We felt at home the moment we set down our bags! Since we were traveling with our 9 yr old son, Serge provided a roll-away single bed which was very comfortable and easy to stash in the dining room corner until needed. The bedroom is on the backside of the apt. so very quiet. Both bedroom windows can be opened to enjoy the window gardens and early morning sun without giving up any privacy. There are beautiful window gardens outside of 5 of the 6 windows and we even had the fun of watching (& naming) a baby bird being nurtured by it's mother for the entire week, nestled in the foliage of one of the garden boxes overlooking Rue de Louvre. "Cocoa" took his maiden flight the day before we caught our flight home. We can not say enough about how wonderful the apt. is, how fabulous the location is and how responsive, charming and accomodating our host was. Serge, we have found our home away from home and can't wait to stay at Duluc again. Special thanks to Mathieu for all he did too!

  • From our first email exchange with the apt. owner, Serge, we had a feeling that this was going to be a very special week in Paris. Serge was very fast to reply to all of our questions prior to our arrival and even though he was out of town when we arrived, we were warmly greeted by his friend Mathieu who not only helped lug our suitcases up the stairs but then showed us all around the apt. making sure we knew about every detail, right down to how to operate the remotes for the entertainment system/flat screen TV. (Serge had even left us a little diagram of the remote buttons!) Because we had asked about the immediate neighborhood restaurants in our emails, Serge had left us a list of some of his favorite ones as well as a few more he thought we should try, complete with a business card from each. We felt very papmpered right from the start! This was the 4th VRBO apt. we stayed at during our trip, the 2nd in Paris, and we definitely saved the best for last! What a way to spend your last week in Europe, steps away from the Louvre, Rue Rivoli with all it's shops, restaurants galore, bakeries, etc., etc. Being smack in the center of the greatest city in the world in such a fabulous apt. hosted by such a charming and considerate host helped make our last days of vacation seem like a dream.

  • We used VRBO for the first time for our trip to Paris and had the best time. The apartment we rented was located perfectly in the center of town. Everything around us just a few minute walk. Our landlord Serge was so helpful and kind. He told us which train to get on from the airport and he met us at the train station. The Apartment was a charming, very spacious one bedroom. The decor was tasteful and everything was so clean. He had consedered all our needs. He gave us so much info on the city and recommended wonderful restaurants. Cannot wait to go back!!!

  • Serge is just great ~ as is his place in Paris!! The location is amazing...you can see the Louvre from the living room window. There is a fully equip kitchen which is a great cost saver. The apartment was clean, well stocked with paper products as well as some beverages left in the fridge for us :-). We had a few connection issues with a US laptop and the European WiFi, but Serge was more than helpful with that as well. In summary, renting here translates to renting a great place from a great person. You'll be pleased.

  • This was both our first trip to Paris and first apartment rental from Vacatoin Rentals By Owner. We could not have been more pleased with both the City of Lights and an apartment to die for. The apartment is much more spacious than can be conveyed via photos. It was nicely appointed with beautiful gardenscapes outside all windows, including the floor to ceiling ones on the Rue de Louvre street far below. Birdfeeders outside the dining nook window with planted flowers made breakfast seem like a dream. The owner Sarge was extremely polite and helpful, especially to us first time visitors. Prompt replies via email on the PROVIDED desktop computer with printer made communication very easy and convenient. No need to lug a laptop when staying here! The Louvre metro stop is yards away and the Louvre museum is right next to the metro stop - can't get a better location for sightseeing. The bathroom is newly renovated and shower hot water is endless - complete with separate tub too. To sum it up, GREAT apartment, GREAT location, Great owner/host. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this rental to all. Thanks Sarge, we hope to stay there again in the future!

  • This is a terrific luxury apartment in Paris and we were lucky to be able to stay in it. The location was wonderful with the Lourve almost at your front door, a very short walk to the river, your choice of dozens of restaurants, and plenty of shopping nearby. This apartment was much larger than we expected and even though it states it sleeps 2 people, we found it could easily accomodate 4 or possibly 5 in three separate areas. There's a foldaway bed in the dining room and a very large comfortable "L" shaped sofa in the the large living room. The very best part of the apartment is a well kept secret. Even though you're up high with great views of Paris, there's a garden outside every window, even an occupied bird's nest with eggs. The owner has planted trees and flowers in deep planters and platforms which are absolutely beautiful. This is a privately owned apartment and it shows. The attention to service and detail is amazing. If you're worried about the "no lift", we're 60 years old and we managed the stairs at least twice a day after walking for hours on the Paris streets. They are not steep stairs and are quite manageable. And the owner very kindly carried all our luggage up and down for us.

  • The apartment is great: all comfort, very nicely and tastefully furnished, super clean. The bedroom is away from the street, so very quiet, with a window on a small courtyard. The location is just the best! Right next to subway stations (including a very convenient connection to the airport by train), next to the Louvre Museum, close to the Seine, rue Montorgueil and Le Marais. You can virtually walk everywhere or take a quick subway ride. There a couple of very nice restaurants around, including two that I would recommend right next door: Le Fumoir and Cafe des Inities (for a quick meal).
