Exceptional Stay in Bordeaux

Needed a place to stay between trips. What a find. Spacious, had all the appliances we needed (including washer and dryer), roomy bathroom, overlooked the Garonne River. and was located amongst lots of restaurants and shops. Even had a nearby tram stop. Additionally, our host went out of her way to make us comfortable with the features of the apartment and answer our questions about Bordeaux. Superb!

Superb!

If you are going to Bordeaux this is the apartment to stay in. We were there for 7 days so seen most areas of the city and this was in the best location, not too far from the Centre and there is a lovely square just behind with lots of restaurants. The apartment has beautiful views of the river, cannot fault it and am currently recommending to friends. Berenice is a great host and the apartment was spotless, comfortable and large. If only all holidays lets could be like this!

Outstanding View and Exceptional Host

The apartment is right on the river with a wonderful rooftop view. It's in a perfect spot in the heart of Bordeaux. There are restaurants, historic sites, and shopping all within easy walking distance. The host provided a wonderful information booklet in both French and English. She gave us a wonderful introduction to the room, the amenities and the city. She was a very warm and helpful person and was incredibly helpful with every aspect of our visit. We absolutely recommend the accommodations and the host. She truly is a Super Host.

An amazing apartment

What a fabulous place - it's even better than we imagined. Spotlessly clean and comfortable, wonderful views, quiet yet close to everything. The attention to detail is incredible - including the different coloured towels so each guest knows which is theirs. Berenice provides great information on what to do and communication was fast and clear. It really is a luxurious place and we can't wait to return.

Beautiful view, comfortable stay

Berenice and her staff were very nice and graciously welcomed us to their beautiful apartment. The terrace has a gorgeous view of Bordeaux. The apartment is very comfortable. (Save the four floor walk-up - HOWEVER, good exercise after all of the delicious food and wine we consumed.) It was a very hot week, but every room is very nicely cooled with multiple, quiet AC units. We slept well. The location is spectacular. Everything is walking distance. Behind the apartment is Saint Louis-Des-Chartrons and a quiet square with a delicious collection of boulangerie, cafes and restaurants. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Apartment in Bordeaux

My husband and I stayed in Bérénice's beautiful apartment in April for 4 nights. We fell in love with the place as soon as we walked inside. You can not go wrong staying here. Berenice and her husband are wonderful hosts and made our stay in Bordeaux amazing. I just wish that we had been able to stay longer. I look forward to someday coming back and sharing this wonderful apartment and city with family or friends. The views were amazing and their are many restaurants close by. We ate every evening meal downstairs at the first place as you walk out the doors. We walked everywhere we went and we were out many nights past midnight and never once did we feel uncomfortable in this beautiful city. The proximity to the river for walking or running is great. Do yourself a favor and book this apartment just make sure that you stay during the time that they have the market. Berenice was such a pleasure to work with both before, during and after our trip I hope to return to Bordeaux soon it was a highlight of our 6 week trip to France.

Overlooking beautiful Bordeaux

The apartment is beautiful and spacious. Extremely comfortable, lacking nothing. One of the nicest VRBO's that we have ever stayed in. The view over Bordeaux and the river creates an elegant ambiance. We loved Bordeaux. We stayed 5 nights and there was more that we wanted to see. Great restaurants everywhere ( kitchens close from 2:30 until 7:30 and many closed on Sun. and/or Mon.), but that didn't stop us from having great lunches and dinners everyday. Berenice was wonderful. Very professional with booking and always sensitive to our needs. While away on vacation she arranged for Eliane to meet us and acclimate us to the details of the apartment. She left us some scrumptious caneles, called to see how things were going, visited us upon her return and offered to call the cab the early morning of our departure. When you combine the attentiveness of the owner, with this gorgeous apartment, you get a five star rating.

A very nice apartment but with obstructed terrace views

The main reason we selected this property for our stay was the `terrace with a view`. However this wonderful view from the terrace or inside the apartment is only visible if standing up as there is a one metre high wall on all sides of the terrace. If sitting at the small table or loungers provided on the terrace then all that you will see is the wall, very dissapointing indeed & this should have been made more clear in the property description. The apartment itself is very spacious, comfortable, & ideally located. The parking in the garage is a little tricky to access other than for a small car. On the final Sunday of our stay we decided to buy some items from the market in front of the apartment & cook an evening meal, but found that the kitchen hob did not work & had to waste the food purchased.

A Jewel on the Garonne

Perched high above the Garonne shortly before it flows into the Atlantic, Bernice's apartment is an absolute joy. Beautifully furnished and impeccably clean one settles in easily and begins to uncover the wonders of the often underappreciated city of Bordeaux. The only drawback to the apartment is that it is so comfortable and the views so spectacular that very often one does not want venture out. A stone's through from the tram and an easy walk to the center of the city, the apartment has comfortable beds, a huge modern bathroom, a large dining table and a lovely well equipped kitchen. There are many food stores and restaurants within a ten minute walk. Added to this is the owner, Bernice, who is the epitome of Gallic charm and can't do enough for her guests. At the risk of being redundant, I will not repeat what all the other reviewers have posted. I will simply say je suis d'accord . Merci Bernice for an absolutely wonderful 10 day visit. It was not long enough and we will be back.

Gorgeous on the Garonne

This was our second stay in Bernice and Georges' absolutely gorgeous apartment overlooking the Garonne River. As with the first time two years ago, our 9 day stay was perfect. Perched high above the Garonne shortly before it flows into the Atlantic, the apartment is perfect for anyone who wants to either while away the hours watching the river traffic from the huge balcony or plunge right in to the exciting city of Bordeaux by hopping on the tram (which is only a few steps away from the apartment ) or walking along that same river. The apartment, located in the now very trendy Chartrons District, is beautifully furnished and impeccably clean with lightening fast internet,a huge modern bathroom with separate toilet compartment, a large dining table and a lovely well equipped kitchen. Include the added bonuses of a washer/dryer combination and air conditioning in every room and you have perfection. Bernice, who is the epitome of Gallic charm, can't do enough for her guests. She has stocked the apartment with guidebooks and maps to make exploring Bordeaux easy. At the risk of being redundant, I will not repeat what all the other reviewers have posted. I will simply say je suis d'accord . Merci Bernice and Georges for an absolutely wonderful second visit. As we said before, we will be back.

"Winter" in Bordeaux

My fiancee' is French and I am American. Every December, we choose a new place to visit and spend time together. Neither of us had ever been to the city and area before, and, like we always do, look to VRBO to find an apartment to suit our needs. My lady found this wonderful property and we were excited by the photos. It ended up being the best experience that we've ever had with VRBO; on either side of the Atlantic! The view from the front balcony was just like in the first photo! The apartment was large, beautifully decorated, and filled with comfortable furniture. Although the mattresses were not "plush" like this American is used to, they were still very comfortable and I had no trouble sleeping. This was mostly due to the fact that it was SO QUIET at night! The location is REALLY great; in the heart of the city. One tram line runs right along the river; with stops a couple minutes walk from the apartment. A small elevator, installed by the owners, saves a lot of stair climbing! Berenice and Georges, who lived in the apartment just below us, were the BEST hosts; even inviting us to their place one evening for wine and conversation. Berenice is so attentive to making everything in the apartment nice, attractive, and comfortable. They were very sweet and the whole experience makes us want to return in 2017! :)
