Family Holiday
We rented Villa Rhapsodie for 4 weeks over the summer for our family and for friends to join us. The villa was a very high standard, and we immediately felt at home. The garden and swimming pool were lovely, different porches and areas to sit depending on the time of day and the heat of the day. The location of villa Rhapsodie is fantastic with a park, (playground if you have little ones) and a 10min walk to the shops, beaches and train station. For those who like to cook the kitchen is well equiped and there is a great Intemarche Hyper a 8 min drive from the house. Arcachon is a very lovely town. Jean Paul and Caroline were fantastic hosts, always easily contactable and quick to respond to all questions both prior to the holiday and during. We are already thinking about when we can return.

Perfect venue for a family holiday - 8 adults and one 3 year old. The house and facilities suited our needs perfectly and the pool was the crowning glory. We all had the most wonderful time - with wonderful weather too. Arcachon is a town with everything - an amazing park, bakeries, shops, fabulous beach, bike hire and links to everywhere we wanted to visit. Caroline and Jean-Paul provided the perfect holiday for us. Thank you so much! Sarah and Andrew

Wonderful House in beautiful location
We rented Villa Rhapsodie for three weeks over the summer holiday for our family and for friends to join us. The villa was a very high standard, beautifully furnished, spacious and full of character, a real home from home. The garden and swimming pool were lovely, different porches and areas to sit depending on the time of day and the heat of the day. Little Rhapsodie was included within the rental and was perfect for our visiting friends, also a family of four. The location of villa Rhapsodie is ideal, situated in the historic and peaceful Winter Village with a park, playground and quick access to the shops and town beaches. We hired bikes which made additional beaches within easy reach along traffic free cycle paths. These would also be easy to get to on foot. We loved Arcachon for its wide sandy beaches, restaurants, shops, boat trips and activities all on the doorstep of the villa. Caroline and Jean Paul were kind hosts, always easily contactable and quick to respond to all questions both prior to the holiday and during. We hope to return. Lizzie and Rob

Beautiful house, creatively decorated in a good location for accessing the town. 2 minutes to the local park and elevator, 5 minutes to the Supermarket and only 15 minutes walk to the beaches. The house was spotless and fully equipped with all necessities. Caroline, the host, was available for all queries before arrival.

Charming Hosts, Exquisite Property, Great Location
Caroline and Jean Paul were charming, accommodating and super responsive. The house is beautiful with unique decorative touches throughout and yet also fully equipped with every practical necessity we needed during our stay - from wifi/tv/cd central entertainment unit to the pool and related accessories and the BBQ and fully stocked kitchen and laundry. The location was perfect near Parc Moresque in the Ville d'Hiver close to everything. We were there with the kids and also had a separate unit for the grandfather to be with us and have his own privacy as well. Absolutely fantastic experience and we will definitely be coming back!

Schöne Unterkunft
Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in Arcachon und haben die Zeit mit Familie und Freunden in dieser schönen Kleinstadt sehr genossen. Das Haus bietet viel Platz und ist reichhaltig ausgestattet. Die Vermieter sind unglaublich hilfsbereit. Der Wintergarten wurde von uns für die Mahlzeiten genutzt. Ein großer Vorteil ist die Anliegerwohnung. Dort wurden die Jugendlichen untergebracht und konnten unter sich sein. Die Stadt hat tolle Läden, Restaurants und einen Markt, der von Montag bis Donnerstag besucht werden kann. Alles in allem ein schöner Ferienort.

Traumhaft
Das von den Eigentümern mit Liebe und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Haus im typischen Arcachon-Stil eignet sich ideal für zwei Familien, die einen Urlaub gemeinsam genießen wollen, da es aus zwei separaten Einheiten besteht. Die Ausstattung ist mehr als komplett und der traumhaft eingewachsene Garten mit Pool hat uns viele schöne Stunden bereitet. Alles ist gepflegt und perfekt sauber. Nicht zuletzt dank der tollen Eigentümer die jederzeit mit Hilfe und Tips zur Verfügung standen.

Great familyhouse in Arcachon
Located on walking distance from the bakery, Arcachon beach and city centre, about 2 minutes drive to Pereira beach; this beautiful well-decorated family house is a wonderful place to spend your holidays. We had a warm welcome from our hosts, Caroline and Jean-Paul. Sailing, cycling, a boat trip to Cap-ferret or surfing. There are enough leisure activities to enjoy for all ages. Hopefully next year we will come back!

Skønt hus centralt i hyggelige Arcachon
Vi var en stor familie med flere generationer på dejlig sommerferie i skønne Arcachon. Villaen var yderst velegnet til formålet. God plads til alle og god fordeling af værelser. Meget veludstyret og velfungerende hus. Oveni dette er huset smukt og yderst smagfuldt indrettet. Især udespisestuen fandt vi meget smuk og charmerende. Også haven er virkelig flot. Poolen var virkelig dejlig at have i sommervarmen, forfriskende, men aldrig kold. Lounge-miljø lige ved siden af poolen var bestemt også et favoritsted at sidde og nyde skyggen og de lune aftner. Huset er meget fint placeret i forhold til byen, ikke lang vej til det hele. Også nemt at benytte elevator i parken, hvis benene var trætte. Byen er en fin lille hyggelig badeby med gode restauranter, butikker og udflugtsmuligheder. Vi lejede cykler og kom nemt rundt og se Arcachon og omegn. Værtsparret er yderst venlige og hjælpsomme. Det hele har været rigtig godt og vi vil meget gerne komme til Arcachon igen og også meget gerne bo i den samme skønne villa.
