This place is perfection - truly

This place is perfection - truly. Brand new, beautifully designed, the backyard is so nice it feels like a resort. A huge selection of toys for kids. Everything you need in the house to have a comfortable stay. One minute walk from the center of the village (store, restaurants very close including a great burger place). An awesome central location in one of the prettiest corners of Provence. And if that weren't good enough - totally removed from the crowds, yet extremely close to everything when you want to be a part of it all. I'm actually sad writing this review - because I expect this place will always be booked if we try to come back again another time :-)

Lovely stay in Provence

It was the first time we were renting in Provence and it was a lovely experience. The property was well appointed, and clean, but most of all the owners were so friendly and helpful with suggestions, directions, etc.... The garden was well taken care of as was the pool and both were so enjoyable in the hot weather. To wake up in the morning looking at the Luberon mountains in the background was a real treat. We were welcomed with organic olive oil from the family's olive grove and fresh homemade fruit confitures. Caroline's mother was so nice and brought us a homemade lemon cake one day and more of her wonderful jams. Caroline brought us some freshly picked white peaches from their orchard which were absolutely delicious. The location in the village of Robion was very convenient and easy to get to, had all the stores we needed (pharmacy, stationery/newspapers store, butcher/caterer, boulangerie, vegetable and fruit market and a local mini market). And the town of Coustellet, a short drive away, offers a huge supermarket which has everything imaginable. We enjoyed the Sunday morning farmer's market there. It is well worth visiting. Also Robion is not far from other must see villages like Menerbes, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Gordes, Isle-sur-la-Sorgue. We recommend this property for a couple of a small family.

Such a great stay here in June 2022

Smart and comfortable villa with heated pool during a heatwave on a strawberry farm in June! Absolutely perfect! Very friendly and helpful support from Nathalie. Very good location for both town and countryside, we couldn’t have hoped for better.

The Ultimate Experience in Provence

There were so many wonderful parts of staying at Chez Christelle. I kept saying "if the walls could talk", I can only imagine the stories since 1850. The chateau and grounds are lovely and provide a very special experience that will never be forgotten. As a cook, I was so very appreciative of high end appliances in the kitchen. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and despite very hot temperatures, the fans in each room helped us to stay comfortable as we slept. I do regret that when I booked the Chez Christelle before COVID, my sons were all coming to join me. I felt it sad that there were only 3 of us to enjoy the home. Christel was so lovely in helping us when we had an issue with the hot water heater. We did miss meeting her in person. The "welcome" book, wine, strawberries and candy were such kind gifts; so very appreciated. Having stayed in many higher end AirB&B's across the world, I hope the following suggestions are helpful in renting this property going forward: The woman that checked us in and out did not speak ANY English. It was very difficult to communicate with her, and we could not get answers to our questions as a result. As a side note: I signed up for French classes when we arrived home 2 days ago! Provence Holidays did have a representative call, but when I called back and left a message, a return call was not made. I did not hear from anyone again in the 2 weeks I was there. I do want to mention that over the 2 years I was waiting to visit, Simon and the other agents at Provence Holidays were AMAZING! I so very much appreciated their help and the opportunity to keep my reservation for such a lengthy time period. Other rentals I have been in have included: paper towels, new bath soaps ( they were used here), plastic wrap, baggies and trash bags.The Kitchen dish soap was watered down and not full and there were only 3 dishwashing tabs left for us. Additionally, it would have been wonderful to have been given the "heads up" on the mosquito issue. We were all bitten rather badly right away. We did not come prepared with insect repellant. Our temperatures reached 103 degrees, so obviously this issue is a summer one. We had to go to the large market immediately the next morning for all of these supplies. We needed instructions for both the stovetop and microwave. A history of the chateau in the welcome book would have been a wonderful addition. We were so curious. At check out, we were told there would be a "walk through" and an "inventory" taken; I asked what this was for as I had never experienced it with other rentals; I was not given a response. We would have better prepared for this if we had known what to do. In addition to instructions at check out for trash removal, I think it would be helpful to give instructions on what to do with the linens as well. Also, we weren't sure if we should have run the dishwasher. I would HIGHLY recommend this property to others and once again, will never forget the most amazing time we had there. I hope that I might return again as well.

Gorgeous stay in a quiet location

This house is absolutely stunning with a fantastic outdoor pool space! Everything was 5 stars

Fantastic location with a Jacuzzi and Sauna

Fantastic stay! Fantastic location, 20 minutes walk from the wonderful village of Gordes, about 30 minutes drive from Roussillon and L'Isle-sur-la-sorgue. The building is beautiful. Very nice swimming pool, very quiet. There is even a Jacuzzi and sauna... We hope to return.

Comfortable house with an amazing pool

We loved our time at this beautiful property. Hosts are great, welcoming, helpful and friendly. The house is very comfortable with great attention to detail, and the outside space and pool are kept in wonderful condition. Location is nestled amongst the vines and is great if you want to feel secluded, but you are less than 3 minutes away from the nearest small village (by car) which has a good restaurant and there is plenty of good walking and cycling nearby.

Tastefully decorated house with a secluded heated pool

A well laid out and tastefully decorated house, full of sculptures and paintings the work of owners Chloe and Eric. The spacious kitchen / lounge and one of the bedrooms opens onto a secluded terrace with a large heated pool and a backdrop of a steep bank of pine trees and natural flora including cacti, sage, rosemary etc., leading up to the wild Alpilles. Another two bedrooms open onto a covered terrace facing the village but with views as far as Tarascon, and there’s a fourth bedroom upstairs with balconies overlooking both the pool and the village. All four bedrooms with spacious private showers or baths, all with AC. Impeccably maintained, everything looked new with no evidence of wear or tear. The pool was cleaned early every morning before we got up - that’s a good measure of the owners’ attention to detail. This is a lovely part of Provence that we have visited many times. Highly recommended.

Very beautiful place

Very beautiful place. Super nice hosts. Very clean ands charming. The pool and outdoor areas are amazing as well.

La maison est exceptionnelle

Super fin de semaine dans la villa. Accueil chaleureux, consignes claires, contact facile. La maison est exceptionnelle de part son emplacement proche de cassis et Marseille et de part les prestations proposées. Nous recommandons largement cette location !

Lovely villa in a perfect location

We loved staying here. The property owner was so helpful and friendly and welcomed us with a bottle of wine. My kids loved staying here with the unique bbq and pool - the grounds are private and we had fun playing badminton too. the town of St Remy is two minutes away with everything you need to explore. We highly recommend!

Perfect retreat to let the soul dangle

This Villa is a perfect retreat to let the soul dangle, we again enjoyed our stay very much and are looking forward to coming back again.

Fabulous woodland setting

A beautifully presented villa in a fabulous woodland setting. Glorious outdoor spaces along with a charming, characterful house with all the amenties you could ask for. We have stayed in a lot of villas, but this is one of the best.

Hutchinson

A beautiful villa, with very attractive furniture, lots of places to sit inside and out, tables inside and outside big enough to seat 20 people. 5 bathrooms and a large heated pool. The village is a 10/15 minute walk away with good shops and restaurants. We all loved the house and were very comfortable. Our Grandson on the morning we were leaving went to each room to say goodbye. To the owner and to Provence holidays who were so very helpful, thank you.

An excellent experience all around

This is a great place to stay.

A delightful week in the sun.

We all had a lovely holiday in a beautiful location. The villa had excellent facilities and we all enjoyed ourselves.

Spring in Provence

The home was in great condition. The grass was burnt and could have used the irrigation system. Not sure if the irrigation systems is on all grounds or just a small part, but we did not see it working.

Wonderful property but servicing can be better planned.

The place is great. Really fabulous. You do have to choose between air-conditioning and a heated pool on arrival but that was no problem for us in May half term as the pool was the obvious choice. The early morning mid-week Tuesday clean, early morning Wednesday power tool gardening and the incorrect wifi code were less great. The contract paperwork was pretty heavy handed too. And the kitchen is too small for the size of house. But- it's a fantastic place. Wonderfully secluded. Well equipped. BBQ and outdoor pool are perfect. Peaceful with easy access to the village, which is as delightful as Mas Des Cistes.
