Great Stay

We had a great stay at this VRBO rental! The hosts were incredibly nice and responsive, making our experience smooth and enjoyable. The property is in a great location for exploring the beautiful area. We had an amazing time kayaking in the Verdon Gorges and visiting the picturesque town of Moustiers-Sainte-Marie. The outdoor patio is lovely—a perfect spot to relax after a day of adventure. A big thank you to the hosts for being so patient with us during check-in, especially since we don't speak much French. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to explore this stunning region!

Court séjour pour un mariage dans les environs

Nous avons apprécié le calme et le caractère très nature de ce lieu. Le logement est impeccable et bien équipé, idéal pour un séjour en famille où chacun peu trouver son espace avec une salle d’eau et sanitaires à chaque niveau. Nous avons été accueillis par les propriétaires avec beaucoup de sympathie malgré l’heure d’arrivée un peu tardive. Nous vous remercions pour la fluidité de nos enchanges avant l’arrivée et pour vos explications sur place. Nous n’hésiterons pas à revenir pour un séjour plus long dans la région malgré le petit aléas du départ 😊. Florence

Séjour très agréable, maison au calme avec les propriétaires en mitoyens qui ont étés très serviables et disponibles. La maison est fonctionnelle, bien agencée, située dans une ville stratégique pour bien visiter les gorges du verdon basses.
