Please note that our accommodation is not recommended if you have children who cannot swim, due to the central location of the pool.

Dear Arturo Like you, we were disappointed by the rather gloomy weather during your stay. Thank you very much for your very positive comments. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay, our discretion and our region, and that you are considering coming back – you will be most welcome. We appreciated your kindness and the quality of our conversations. It was a real pleasure to welcome you to our home! With kind regards Laurence & Olivier

Communication was excellent right from booking and throughout our stay. The hosts were on hand via text whenever we needed them and despite living at the back of the property, we hardly saw them. When we did, they were extremely friendly and gave us advice on events happening in the town. Our adult daughter and partner asked to stay for longer with us so that they could spend time with our adult son and family who were joining us later in the holiday; Laurence was so helpful, providing us with additional bed linens and towels. The villa was lovely and had everything we needed- aircon was amazing in all rooms, including the annexe. Beds were very comfortable!Absolutely loved the outside areas, so many places to sit for sunbathing and for shade. The pool was the best we have ever had. There were ten of us at one point in the holiday and there was ample room for us all to play water polo! It was the first holiday for our dogs and they were so welcomed by the hosts. They even had their own paddling pool to cool off. We took our own towels, bedding, bowls etc for them, but they were all provided for us anyway. A selection of gifts for us on arrival really made us feel special. Mark loved the cold beers after such a long drive from the UK!We felt very safe and secure with locked gates to the property and there was plenty of space to park our cars within the grounds.The town itself is lovely and quiet. A short walk to a small number of restaurants/bars. Loved it all!

Wir haben den Aufenthalt bei Laurence und Olivier sehr genossen. Die Villa ist super. Sehr sauber, großzügige Räume, phantastischer Garten mit Pool, groß genug, um sich mit 7 erwachsenen Personen aus dem Weg zu gehen. Laurence und Olivier sind herzliche Gastgeber, die zwar mit auf dem Grundstück wohnen, aber in keinster Weise stören. Für Hilfe sind sie immer da, ansonsten hört und sieht man sie kaum. Ganz liebe Menschen, die beiden. Die Unterkunft ist sehr schön, es gibt alles was man benötigt, um Urlaub zu machen. Die Betten sind sehr bequem. Die Lage ist super. Schnell am Strand (wir waren mit unserer kleinen Hündin immer am Plage de la Marende), schnell in Spanien. Wir kommen sicher mal wieder. Vielen Dank an Laurence und Olivier. Simone mit Familie

Dear Simone, A huge thank you for this wonderful review! It's the best compliment for us. We're so happy that you enjoyed the villa, its garden, and the pool, and that you and your family felt comfortable there. Knowing that the beds were comfortable and that you were able to enjoy the beach with your dog makes us very happy. It was a real pleasure welcoming you. We hope to have the opportunity to see you again. Yours sincerely, Laurence and Olivier Chère Simone, Un immense merci pour ce magnifique retour ! C'est le plus beau des compliments pour nous. Nous sommes tellement heureux que vous ayez apprécié la villa, son jardin et la piscine, et que vous vous y soyez sentis à l'aise, vous et votre famille. Savoir que les lits étaient confortables et que vous avez pu profiter de la plage avec votre chien nous fait très plaisir. Ce fut un réel plaisir de vous accueillir. Nous espérons avoir l'occasion de vous revoir. Bien à vous, Laurence et Olivier

vacances paisibles et bien reposantes

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette jolie maison spacieuse, moderne et bien équipée, avec un jardin arboré et fleuri, une piscine d'une taille de rêve rien que pour nous, avec des transats, un hamac sous les palmiers, des fauteuils à l'ombre ou au soleil, selon l'envie. Palau Del Vidre est un endroit calme pour se reposer, proche des plages, des vignes et des montagnes, ainsi les activités peuvent être variées. Le climat nous convenait très bien, pas de chaleur étouffante. Les propriétaires Laurence et Olivier nous ont bien accueilli et sont restés à notre disposition si besoin. Le fait qu'ils habitent à proximité était pratique pour l'entretien de la piscine, pour remplacer la bouteille de gaz du barbecue ou de la plancha. Ils sont vraiment charmants et discrets.
