Lovely apartment in vile d’avray

We have been to Paris several times and decided this time to try an apartment outside of the city instead of the normal touristy hotels. We are so very glad we did. The place is very well done a beautiful spacious apartment in a historic home. The owners were very helpful. I should mention we did have a car so we did not have to try other transportation but it was perfect

Fabulous apartment and hosts - top rated

Such a wonderful apartment, location and hosts. Our family of four had a fantastic time using this apartment as a base for trips to Versailles, central Paris and to Rock en Seine in August. The apartment is well stocked with everything you could need, is immaculately presented, spotlessly clean, and the hosts are kind and generous with their communications and hospitality. Our 20 and 17 year old sons and my wife and I loved our rooms, the views from the terrace and the local market and shops. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again. A family favourite.

First Family Trip to Paris!

Xavier & Camila were amazing host! The place is exactly what I wanted being close enough to visit the city but staying in a quiet beautiful neighborhood where we could visit a local bakery, grocery store & have easy access to public transportation! The hosts were available anytime we had question & the apartment was absolutely delightful! Wish we had one more day to enjoy it! We loved Paris it was so charming & everyone so hospitable! Thank you for also setting up the shuttle from the airport as this was so helpful navigating travel with a family of 5!

Christmas is Paris

The apartment is stunning and Xavier and Camille are the perfect hosts. It is located outside the city limits of Paris; however, public transportation is easy to navigate. The town of Ville de’Avray is charming and has everything you need. I would recommend this apartment to anyone and if we ever return, I would stay here again.

Gorgeous View!!!

This is a wonderful property. It has a ton of space and is very well decorated. The balcony is great for a glass of wine or champagne and to enjoy the sounds of the birds. The location is an easy walk to a grocery store and bakery and Uber ride to Paris. The hosts were wonderful. Provided croissants, butter and milk the first day we were there. They also provided train tickets to the city and a wonder cold bottle of champagne. We would love to stay here again.

Quality experience from start to finish

Many have previously mentioned the positives of this apartment and we can only concur. Were in Paris for the Olympics and this proved a great base given the excellent connectivity on trains and buses - we got to several venues easily. Some really good restaurants nearby and the village has all the amenities you need. The hosts were fabulous - we had a lot of contact discussing the various events and they were extremely generous to us. My wife has concluded we need to find something similar for ourselves we enjoyed the apartment so much ! Fabulous.

French Chateau Vacation

The chateau apartment is gorgeous and was the perfect place to stay for our trip to Paris. The Ville d'Avray is a quaint village located in the suburbs with all the amenities only 5 min. walk, including grocery store, bakery, and restaurants. Public transit is close-by with buses, metro, and trains easily transporting us into the city for touring all the major landmarks, museums, cathedrals, shops and restaurants. Palace of Versaille is only a short 10 min. Uber ride and a great day trip. My husband and I spent a fabulous week at the chateau which was a comfortable, beautifully decorated, well-appointed haven to return to for relaxation after busy days touring and exploring the city. Xavier and Camille were the best hosts, very friendly, helpful and responsive to ensure we had a pleasant stay. We have travelled all over the world renting VRBO properties for over 25 years, and this chateau is one of our favorites. We can't wait to return to Paris soon, and would definitely stay there again. Merci beaucoup Xavier & Camille for making our adventures in France magnifique!

We enjoyed our stay here so very much!!! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed so warmly. Xavier and Camille were so accommodating and extremely kind to us. The home is very lovely and spacious. It truly had everything we needed and more. Plenty of linens, comfy beds, and really nice furnishings. We appreciated the artwork, too. :) We enjoyed every aspect of staying here and would definitely enjoy staying here again in the future. We appreciate the champagne left for us for our anniversary. It was such a kind gesture. The hosts are so generous and thoughtful. Probably the best VRBO hosts we’ve ever had!! Thanks again for a beautiful stay!!! -Sherrie and Greg

Terrific stay

Four of us stayed in the Branley apartment for two weeks, and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute there. The apartment is beautiful and commodious with a large dining area on the balcony. We had many simple meals there after long days of sightseeing. When we arrived after our long overnight flight, Xavier and Camille had arranged for a driver to take us directly to the apartment. We were greeted by a wonderful basket of goodies, French bread and Croissants. They did everything to make our stay special and are wonderful hosts. Many of our days were spent in Paris, but we also enjoyed staying in Ville d'Avray. We walked around the lakes and forests, had drinks and appetizers at Les Estang de Corot, enjoyed shopping at the local outdoor market, bought gifts at the local chocolate shop, and had an exquisite last dinner on the terrace of L'Entracte. Abundant thanks to our hosts for all of their thoughtfulness. Anne

A great sized apartment in a great location!

We were looking to stay in Paris but such small apartments for high price. We looked further outside and found this great sized apartment with free street parking (we drove from the UK) It has a wonderful view over Paris and you can even see the Eiffel Tower in the distance. It is on a hill and has a staircase up to the apartment but this was no problem for us. Nice decor in-keeping with the property. All appliances you would need inc a coffee machine! Very easy check in/out. Easy reach of bus station to metro if needed. Shop very close by. Very kind, generous hosts, great communication and happy to help at any time. Would happily stay again.

5+++ property conveniently near Paris and Versailles

Just had a wonderful stay at this property in July. We are a family of 4 (two teenagers) and this apartment had more than enough room for us. The photos are very accurate in showing this is a large, comfortable, and immaculate property. For us it was very conveniently located between Paris and Versailles with very easy access to public transit which we used daily. We very much enjoyed coming back here at the end of a long day and enjoying the quiet views. There is an excellent bakery and good grocery store located a short 300m walk from the door which we used regularly too. The property hosts are especially helpful and accommodating even to the point of arranging a driver for us to get to the airport early in the morning for our departing flight. I can't stress enough how great they were in communicating before and during our stay (e.g. tips on transit, restaurants, sites, etc). So great and absolutely recommend this property for those looking for a little peace and quiet just outside of Paris.

Stop your search, this is the place!

I don’t think there is enough room to describe our stay. First of all, the hosts Xavier and Camille are the MOST accommodating and nice people you will meet. We were able to check in early and they even had breakfast waiting for us. Amazing. The apartment is amazing. It’s huge and beautiful. The balcony looks out over the city and you can watch the tower twinkle on it while drinking a nice glass of wine. A wonderful place to unwind after the hustle of the city. The town you are staying in is great. Out door market, great wine store, awesome bakery and a large grocery store. The apartment have a full kitchen if you prefer to cook your own meals. ANYTHING you need at anytime, Xavier can help. I can’t say enough about him. We had an amazing trip but I owe most of it to our hosts.

A luxurious apartment with a glorious view of the Paris skyline

This apartment has been a wonderful base for our Paris holiday, being convenient for both Paris and Versailles. It is a luxurious apartment with vastly more space than we could afford in the city centre, with the added benefit that we got to see the Paris skyline (including the Eiffel Tower). This is truly impressive, particularly at dawn and at dusk. To have this perspective does mean that getting into the city takes approx 1 hour by public transport, but it is a small price to pay for the less frenetic pleasures of this affluent French suburb. The apartment is really spacious, and had everything we needed. The star for us was the generous balcony where we ate our breakfasts with views over Paris. The owners could not have been more helpful, patiently coping with our many requests for advice. We highly recommend this apartment.
