Tout ici est conçu pour se sentir bien... plus qu'à choisir sa terrasse pour profiter de la vue magnifique ou de la piscine (bien appréciée pendant la canicule)...
Côté pratique, rien ne manque et la maison est meublée avec goût.
Merci, Tina, de nous avoir ouvert votre superbe maison et merci, Brett, pour votre accueil attentif et bienveillant.
Une location parfaite. Une propriétaire très sympathique, un gérant immobilier fantastique. Une vue incroyable!!
A refaire sans hésiter.
La clim pourrait être un plus, mais c’est un detail.
Joli maison située à flanc de colline avec vue imprenable. Bon équipement, grande piscine sécurisée par une barriere, environnement très calme. Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine.

Bonjour Mathieu,
Nous avons été ravis de vous recevoir, vous et votre agréable séjour en famille, dans notre maison. Nous espérons vous accueillir à nouveau une autre fois.
Bien á vous. Tina
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour. La maison est bien équipée mais pourrait avoir des équipements plus moderne pour ce niveau de prestations surtout autour de la piscine. Barbecue un peu vétuste. Pas de lumière dans la piscine. Store avec une toile déchirée.
Une climatisation dans la maison serait un plus. Nous avons souffert de la chaleur. Et les salles d’eau ne sont vraiment pas modernes.

Bonsoir,
1. Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous et votre famille avez passé un agréable séjour.
2. Au bord de la piscine, nous proposons une table et des chaises exclusives gris anthracite de 10 à 12 places de Proloisirs ainsi que des chaises longues en aluminium modernes, un parasol Vlaemynch de haute qualité ainsi qu'un tout nouveau parasol de haute qualité, que nous avons acheté pour fournir de l'ombre en place du store du poolhouse endommagé.
3. Nous avons en effet une lumière de piscine et l'interrupteur est facilement accessible depuis l'intérieur de la cuisine de la piscine.
4. Nous proposons trois types de barbecue différents ; un grand barbecue Weber moderne placé au bord de la piscine ainsi qu'un four à charbon ouvert traditionnel dans la cuisine du poolhouse. De plus, nous proposons une plancha traditionnelle française dans la cuisine d'été par le coin salon orienté sud-ouest.
5. L'auvent de la piscine a malheureusement été déchiré à cause d'un fort mistral quelques jours avant votre visite. Nous avons pris des mesures immédiates pour contacter de nombreux fabricants français afin de passer une commande, mais malheureusement, en raison de la fermeture des entreprises en août pour les vacances françaises, il n'a pas encore été possible de le remplacer. Nous prévoyons de l'installer début septembre.
6. Veuillez vous référer à la description de la maison sur VRBO. Nous n'offrons pas de climatisation, mais toutes les chambres ont des ventilateurs installés. Nous vous recommandons d'agir dans une culture méditerranéenne traditionnelle et de fermer les volets en bois pendant la journée pour garder les chambres plus fraîches, avant d'ouvrir le soir pour profiter d'un flux d'air rafraîchissant.
7. Nous avons installé de nouveaux appareils de salle de bain modernes au printemps 2021, une mise à niveau des images affichées sur VRBO à mettre à jour avec la photographie après cette saison.
Il faut aussi souligner que notre équipe immobilière a constaté que du tabagisme avait manifestement eu lieu sur la propriété, éliminant un nombre important de cigarettes usagées. Nous avons mis en place une politique stricte d'interdiction de fumer dans les locaux pour protéger nos clients mais aussi notre bel environnement car il existe un risque élevé d'incendies de forêt dans la région en raison de la chaleur estivale normale. Nous avons été très découragés de constater que vous et vos invités avez choisi de ne pas respecter une règle aussi importante.
Cordialement
Tina

La maison est bien mais elle est est super bien entrevue est l'emplacement pas très facile d'accès.
On cherchait de la tranquillité, c'est dommage qu'il y a un aérodrome au village et ça perturbe un peu, je trouve dommage que ça nous a pas était communiqué lors de la réservation mais on règle générale c'était bien.
Superbe séjour dans cette belle demeure avec une vue magnifique.
Un grand merci à Brett, pour son accueil. Très bonne communication avec les propriétaires.
La maison est bien équipée, décorée avec goût.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.

Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Fayence and the Var area over 25 years ago and it became our dream to own a holiday home in Fayence allowing us to gather family and friends from near and far. Our Provençal home is lovingly decorated and full of charm, offering a calming escape from the daily stresses that we all face. Our children loves it for its vast gardens, which they love to explore and a firm favourite is the "secret" den on a little hill behind behind the house though the pool is a perfect spot to refresh and play throughout the day. Setting foot on the property, we are able to refuel our energy levels whilst exploring the wonderful adventures in the area with our children. Finding a peaceful spot in the sun whilst enjoying the beautiful surroundings doesn’t get any better than this.
What makes this property unique
The house offers an unparalleled view of the valley and the scenery from the terrace is breathtaking; you can feel the tension ebbing away with every minute sitting outside. It offers great entertaining spaces along with a terrific pool area with pool kitchen & dining; it is the perfect holiday hideaway.
