Perfect Villa!
We stayed at Karen and Tim's villa with our 4 children aged 23, 20, 17 and 10yr. The villa was perfect for our family - it felt so spacious and was impeccably clean! In fact it felt like a brand new villa as everything was so immaculate. The pool was lovely with plenty of sunbeds around it and 2 sets of outdoor seating areas each with 6 seats. Loved the fact it had off road parking which was behind a gate we could lock. Felt very secure. The air-conditioning in the living area and all bedrooms was very welcome as the weather was rather warm, as you would expect in the South of France. It was very peaceful - we never heard any of the neighbours. There weren't any shops within walking distance so you would definitely need a car whilst staying here. It was only a 5 minute drive to the local Lidl though, which had everything you could need. We spent most days at the beach in Argeles - lovely sandy beaches (the sand was a bit coarse so our 10yr old was a little disappointed when she couldn't build sandcastles) but the beautiful sea made up for it - so clear and calm. Even though we stayed in August the beaches were not over crowded and had plenty of parking. Went to Collioure a couple of evenings for dinner which I would thoroughly recommend. Thank you Karen and Tim for allowing us to spend our summer holiday in your gorgeous villa. We will recommend to all and hope to return ourselves one day! .

Wonderful holiday in Argeles sir Mer
Property suited our group well. Future tenants should be aware of the rather steep stairs to lower level. Any queries/problems we had were dealt with by the owner & caretaker immediately. Could I suggest a “booklet” giving information on local attractions & transport options. I would certainly recommend this property with it’s beautiful pool as a wonderful holiday accommodation.

Children loved the pool
Our French and the Villa Manager’s English was poor so welcome was not easy. However, the owner dealt promptly with the initial issues raised and even arranged for a plumber to come next morning who was excellent and sorted out a problem with one of the showers. Guests need to be aware that only one bath towel is provided per person and no hand towels or pool towels are provided. Only four chairs around a table in the living area but plenty of outside chairs and sun beds by the pool. Great location, 5 minutes drive to Racue beach, Port and one euro bus from Eric Cantona stadium (near Port) takes you to Collioure (well recommended). Plenty of markets around including a night market around the port. Children loved the pool and we all had a great holiday.

Spring in the south
We found this villa in Argeles very comfortable and convenient. It was perfectly clean and described accurately on the website. Arrival was straightforward and we had been given all the information we needed. Soon after we arrived in fact, someone called to the door to make sure that everything was okay for us. The owner was easy to contact at all times before and during our stay. It is a convenient spot for exploring the whole area and we visited the local market in Collioure and also the fishing villages of Port Vendres and Cerbere. We didn’t have children in our party but I can imagine how they would have enjoyed the pool at the villa, and the long sandy beach close by.

The sleeping arrangement in the property was odd and downstsirs looked grubby and was not comfortabl
Generally the property was ok - good location for local shops and major roads. Nice swimming pool and outdoor seating area. None of us liked the downstairs part of the house, which is essentially a garage/storage area with 2 bedrooms. In one bedroom there was a washing machine and in the other an entry door. The downstairs bathroom was smelly and generally the whole area looked grubby. I didnt enjoy sleeping down there and it was extemely hot at night.

Superb Villa with fabulous pool
Lovely villa with everything you need.Great space inside .The pool and garden area were fantastic.The boys were in the pool two or three times a day and with the hot weather it was the perfect way to cool off.I loved swimming at night with the pool and garden lights,magical.Easy walk to old town for bars ,restaurants,small but very well stocked supermarket and bakers for fresh bread (and cakes!!)Lovely tourist train brings you to the new town and beach if you want a more livelier atmosphere.Villa in a very safe ,peaceful area.We didn't do any day trips as we had been to Disneyland the week before but plenty of places locally to discover if you wanted.We had a great holiday and highly recommend this villa.

great villa, very spacious, everything you need
Lovely villa in a great location. The housekeeper was very helpful. Lovely outside area with good pool. Easy access to Argeles Ville and Port and a 5 minute drive to the plage. All we needed was in the villa and we were very grateful for the air conditioning as it was over 30 degrees for 12 days. Would definitely book again

Perfekter Familienurlaub
Mit 8 Personen, darunter 2 Kleinkinder und 2 Teenager, verbrachten wir 2 traumhafte Wochen in Argelès sur mer. Die Villa sieht genauso aus wie auf den Bildern und hat alles was man für einen entspannten Sommerurlaub braucht. Die Räumlichkeiten sind großzügig, ebenso die Terrasse, so dass sich auch 8 Personen nicht auf die Füße treten ;-) Der Pool ist überraschend groß und die Terrasse sehr gepflegt. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt, sogar die Fahrräder der Eigentümer durften wir benutzen! Die Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern war unkompliziert und direkt, die Hausverwalterin vor Ort ansprechbar und herzlich. Auf jeden Fall weiter zu empfehlen :-) !

Nous avons passé un super séjour entre amis dans cette villa, qui correspond parfaitement aux photos de l’annonce, Nous avons été très bien accueillis par la personne qui s’occupe de la maison, et les consignes données par le propriétaire étaient simples et claires. Dommage que la villa se trouve assez loin du centre ville d’Argeles, cependant grâce aux vélos mis à disposition, en bonne état, nous sommes à environ 10min du centre.

Nous avons passé une semaine de vraies vacances.
Cette villa est grande. Il y a tout le confort d'une maison pour l'année. Clim, electro ménager, mobilier etc. font que vous n'avez qu'à vous concentrer sur vos vacances, sans tracasseries. C'est toujours ce que nous recherchons. Le confort . La piscine est très agréables et bien entretenue une fois par semaine. Un robot (on peut pas faire plus simple d'utilisation) est a disposition pour le petit nettoyage quotidien. Nos enfants faisaient plage le matin, (pour éviter la foule) et piscine l'après-midi. (pendant que nous, parents indignes, nous faisions des siestes niveau ligue des champions dans des chmabrs fraîches). La maison est très bien située. Impasse dans un lotissement. Aucun passage de véhicules. La très porche proximité de la voie ferrée nous faisait un peu peur au début, en lisant un commentaire. On vous rassure, c'est un non sujet. Il y a très peu de traffic. La voie est une voie baissée par rapport à la maison et le mur fonctionne à merveille. Pour info, assis sur la terrasse, le train passant, on peut tenir une conversation sans souci. Et vu que nous dormions avec la clim, on entend rien. La maison est très proche des plages sud et du port de plaisance (avec commerces et restaurants). La maison est à l'opposée des zones de campings industriels. Aucun problème d'embouteillages comme on a pu voir à Argelès nord. Il faut 5 minutes montre en main (semaine du 15 août) pour aller de la maison à la plage du Racou. (plage que les enfants préféraient). On sent que le propriétaire fait tout pour suivre l'état de sa maison. Je lui avait fait part quelque jours avant notre arrivée de l'importance de la clim pour nous. (raisons médicales). Il m'a dit qu'il y avait un souci avec une en toute transparence. (sur les 6 de la maison). Le jour de notre arrivée, on a appris qu'un réparateur avait passé 4 heures pour la remettre en état avant notre arrivée. Nous avons vraiment apprécié le geste, sachant que 5 pièces climatisées sur les six de la maison suffisaient amplement quoi qu'il arrive. (nous étions que 4) Nous avons fait part au propriétaire d'un ou deux petits soucis mineurs d'intendance, ils nous a déjà répondu. Il est clair que c'est un propriétaire qui suit son bien et fait tout pour l'améliorer. La table de ping pong est un vrai plus, même si elle est en interieur. Les enfants en ont bien profité. C'est mieux que la Switch !

Pas "fantastique"
Points positifs : localisation et maison spacieuse. Points négatifs : vaisselle sale à relaver avant utilisation. Grille pain inutilisable car fait sauter les plombs. Lave vaisselle hors service, l'eau ne d'évacue pas. Canapé dans un état déplorable, le revêtement en Skaï part en lambeaux. Vélos mis à disposition inutilisables, pneus à plat ou crevés, pompe à vélo hs donc impossible de connaître le problème. Pas de table à manger en cas de mauvais temps, celle de la cuisine trop petite pour le nombre de personnes. Globalement beaucoup de problèmes matériels qui pourraient être résolus si l'entretien était assuré et vérifié. Le mot " fantastique" pour le titre de l'annonce est très surfait. Dommage, car le potentiel est là.

Jolie maison, a proximité des plages
La maison est grande est située dans une impasse très calme et proche des plages en voiture (parking gratuit). La piscine est grande et de ce fait il n'y a plus beaucoup de place dans la cour. Le point négatif a notre sens est le train qui passe juste derriere la maison. Heureusement que la climatisation permet de dormir les fenêtres fermées. La maison est bien équipée.
