We have rented several spots over the years in Europe and the U.S. and this is among the best. It has a terrific location. It is spacious, bright and sunny, and very clean. The patio and yard is a special treat. Caroline is a pleasure to deal with. We would love to return.

All of the Modern Conveniences in an Old Burgundian Town

My mom and I stayed here for a little over a week and absolutely loved it. It’s within walking distance to the center of town and has easy access for biking/walking through the Premier Cru area. The apartment had everything. The kitchen was well stocked with essential cooking utensils to make meals using wonderful market finds. Caroline, the host texted me back immediately whenever I had a question. We definitely want to stay here again.

This is a wonderful rental

This was a wonderful rental—great walkable location, beautiful quaint setting, modern interior in charming old building, well-stocked kitchen and nicely furnished. The beds, pillows, and linens were all comfortable. Parking just outside the entrance. We could not have had a better location and and will not be disappointed. As a added benefit, our family of 4 (with 2 teenagers) had this unit and our friends (with 1 teenager) had the one downstairs. They share a courtyard and grassy area. It is perfect for 2 families or a group of 7 (maybe 8?) people.

Stunning place in Beaune

We so enjoyed staying in this amazingly beautiful and peaceful home. The history of the convent along with a superb designer's renovation--- with every detail attended to-- is perfectly eclectic. What a fancy pad!!! The mix of old and new with ultra-modern appliances and perfect upscale decorating yet old wooden ceilings and floors etc. is something to behold. The beds were the most comfortable ever and the internet fast as can be. Loved the bathroom—so sleek and modern. No wonder a magazine photographer came by one evening to take pictures for an article on the place! We had dinners in the courtyard enjoying the sense of history, and breakfasts upstairs looking out at the city. A great bakery is a short walk away as is the lovely town of Beaune. Walking or biking paths through vineyards and to the next villages are just beyond a shady old park close to the house. Caroline and Max were most gracious and welcoming. It truly was a memorable week here and we hope to come back. Thanks so much for a great vacation! Doug and Trudi, San Jose, California

Better than a home away from home!

If you are on the fence about booking this apartment - just do it! You won't regret it! We hesitated a bit because we didn't think we needed the larger second story unit with two bedrooms (the first floor unit was already booked), but it ended up being ideal for myself, my wife and our 3 month infant for our one week stay in Burgundy. This unit is even better and more impressive than the pictures. After having stayed in some funky, bare bones places in Paris and Champagne, it was a total relief to stay in a home that was actually nicer than our own home in LA. It's the perfect blend of historic and modern. It's apparent that the renovation was done with meticulous care and attention to detail. There is fine interior design throughout, to the point that I commented that they had to have hired a designer for this - come to find out that Caroline, the host, works in real estate and historic design and renovations. It shows. There is nothing odd or funky like there is in most rentals; everything is modern, functional and high-end. There is artwork throughout, fine drapery and linens, industrial-chic lighting, a gorgeous and comfortable shower, and brand new appliances in the kitchen. The fridge, oven, microwave and cupboards are all in one modern, sleek unit in the wall. Everything is so clean and modern that we felt like we were the first guests to stay there. The place even smelled lovely when we arrived. The location was also ideal - super quiet at night but a very short walk to town in one direction or to a lovely park and vineyards in the other direction. The bed in the master was huge (king) and very, very firm. Beautiful wood block night stands were on each side of the bed. Sconces in the wall served as the bedside lights, and switches were at both bedsides and as you entered the room. Little details like that were consistent throughout - it was a place I'd love to live in. I also appreciated the comprehensive host book that included maps and myriad recommendations for the region. Caroline was gracious with her time and recommendations for us. This was just the perfect place to spend a week in Burgundy and I would love to return someday.

Lovely spot in Beaune

Spacious apartment in former convent. Nice owners who care about the property and are responsive. Tricky to find but great directions. Great location - walk to town yet out of the fray, prefect location for doing the Voie Des Vignes - walk to a great bike rental shop owners recommended, on the Voie, between the north and south routes. Safe and easy storage for bikes in the protected courtyard. Loved our trip.

Style and location = Perfection!

We -- two couples -- found the convent flat to be superb in every way. The location couldn't be better for exploring Beaune and walking/biking to nearby vineyard towns. The large open-plan living/dining area provided plenty of space for us to spend time together, and the two bedrooms afforded privacy. The flat is outfitted with everything one could want, and it is furnished and decorated in a thoughtful, elegant and non-fussy manner. Lovely views from the windows, which offer a cross-breeze on summer nights. And of course there is the garden for lounging and an outdoor apero. Should we visit Beaune again, this will be our first choice. Thank you!

Gorgeous, quiet, clean 2 bedroom with perfect kitchen and garden

What a beautiful renovated floor of a former convent. Everything in its place with high ceilings and the traditional beamed ceiling. The kitchen has an incredible set of amenities; pots and pans and sharp knives made it easy to cook meals, and we loved the provided coffee and sugar. The Gigandet's were consummate hosts, responsive and kind, especially when we had a little trouble finding the entrance in the dark on the first night. If we're ever back in town, we will definitely reserve it again.
