Summary of reviews
Beautiful ultra-modern property with stunning views, fantastic pool, and spacious rooms. Enjoyed by friends and family for a relaxing reunion week.
5.0 / 5.0
The house is well provided for with lots of equipment and facilities. The view across the valley towards Avignon is incomparable and it is always fun to spot the TGVs speeding past. Air conditioning to the main living areas works well particularly when it is humid. This year has seen more rain across France and we noticed more humidity than previous years as well as hot temperatures.
There is plenty to do in the area with Orange and the Amphitheatre, Avignon and the Palace des Papes, and Pont du Gard where you can kayak under the bridge.
Jean-Daniel is very helpful and responsive to any queries.
5.0 / 5.0
The Villa Alba is a beautiful ultra-modern property in Rochefort-du-Gard which looks east over the Provence countryside. Perfectly suited our friends and family reunion week with a mixture of local visits and lazy days by the stunning infinity pool. Don't miss the local Sunday morning market to stock the kitchen with fresh produce.

The house was amazing, there were 10 beds and 3 bathrooms, so that's all very nice. Also, the outside area was lovely. However, we've had some complaints from the neighbors about noise, even though we weren't being very loud, this put a bit of a damper on how much we could enjoy the pool area.
5.0 / 5.0
The villa is fabulous with a fantastic pool and amazing views. We all really enjoyed our stay and Jean-Daniel and Steff were fantastic hosts.

Modern property with beautiful views towards Mont Ventoux.Very well equipped although it would have helped if instruction book had also been in English.Weather was mixed which meant we were not able to use the lovely pool facility. Overall though very enjoyable.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a wonderful week in this modern property, with huge terraces from which to enjoy the views across the Provencal countryside. Highly recommended. (Just bear in mind that you will need a car as the nearest village is a (hot) 20+ minute walk away.)

Fabulous view and villa
We were 4 couples together in the house, and it was wonderful. Great view, the pool was nice, plenty of space in the home and a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed the proximity to great vineyards, Avignon, and Nimes. Communication with the owner was good, and he responded to questions quickly. The only thing I would note, just because it's different than other VRBO properties I have rented, is that there was a separate contract to sign after booking.

Séjour très agréable dans un cadre idyllique
Notre séjour entre amis dans la Villa Alba était tout simplement parfait. Le propriétaire était arrangeant, très amical. Le logement etait fonctionnel (chambres, espace de vie commune, cuisine, barbecue et piscine/jacuzzi), propre et très bien équipé. Le gros plus du bien : la vue à couper le souffle!
Je recommande grandement.

Americans in Avignon
We were very pleased with the house. We are spoiled Americans with very little knowledge of the French language which caused a minor misunderstanding of water heater control. Everything was great.

Le miellure vue du rhone
What’s an amazing place. My wife and I and a group of friends traveled here to celebrate my 40th birthday. It is a place that no pictures can do justice to. The Sunrises in the morning will take your breath away. A beautiful house with plenty of space for everyone. Jean-Pierre was a wonderful host. He met us on arrival and gave us very detailed instructions about our stay. It helped to make the stay smooth to know the operations of the house. I hope there is a day in the future in which I get to stay at this wonderful villa again!

Five wonderful days in Rochefort du Gard France at Vill Alba
Villa Alba is every bit as spectacular as the photos suggest. The views from rooms, balconies and pool area are panoramic and beautiful. The living space is well appointed, clean and well maintained.
Jean-Pierre (owner) met us upon arrival and explained how to use the villa security system, open driveway gates, operate window shutters, kitchen appliances, laundry appliances, television, etc. Each of the five bedrooms is provided with attractive bed linens. Bathrooms are comfortably sized. The kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans, cooking utensils, and an ample supply of dishware, glassware and eating utensils. For those who want to cook, there are various bowls, baking pans, etc.
The villa is amply furnished inside to accommodate a full house of occupants. Similarly, there is plenty of outside furniture (chairs, tables and lounges).
The villa is located in an area served by narrow paved roads that meander through fields, vineyards and up hillsides. The owner provides good directions to reach the villa from Avignon, but a car equipped with a GPS navigation system is a big help (especially when returning to the villa at night). There is off-road and inside the security gates parking space for multiple cars (in villa's garage and driveway).
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Alba and our visit to towns and tourist attractions in the general vicinity.

Parfait
Nous avons passé une excellente et agréable semaine. Le but était de se ressourcer et l'objectif fut rempli. Il est évident que dans une villa spacieuse avec tout le confort moderne que nous pouvons souhaiter de nos jours cela contribue. Entre une région magnifique proche d'une ville historique, mythique, lyrique ou vous trouverez des marchés remplis de produits de 1er choix pour sublimer vos papilles. Ce qui vous permettra de profiter de vos mets sur une terrasse qui surplombe les coteaux et la ville d'Avignon en vous offrant une vue sur le mont Ventoux que vous pourrez profiter tout aussi bien de la piscine ou du jacuzzi voir de là terrasse supérieur si vous voulez prendre de la hauteur.
Et pour finir votre journée, il vous suffira de vous glisser dans votre bain bulle a chroma thérapie pour récupérer de la journée éreintante que vous venez de passer au bord de la piscine.

Prachtige villa in een prachtige omgeving.
Wij hebben genoten van een 14 daags verblijf in deze goed uitgeruste villa. Alles wat wij nodig hadden was aanwezig. Het enigste wat wij miste was een buiten douche aan het zwembad, maar dat was geen probleem. Het zicht was fenomenaal : over de vallei met de Mont Ventoux op de achtergrond. Het was er zeer rustig en wij hebben dus volop van de rust kunnen genieten. Voor uitstapjes was het goed gelegen, wij moesten enkel even naar Avignon rijden en konden van daar uit alle kanten uit. In het dorp was alles aanwezig : bakker, supermarkt, ...Wij kunnen enkel besluiten dat dit een aanrader is !

Paradise in Provence
Our stay at Villa Alba was fantastic! The villa is amazing. It is impeccably clean. There is everything you need for an amazing stay in Provence. The sleeping accommodations were wonderful and very comfortable. The views were breathtaking. Our whole family enjoyed swimming in the pool after day trips to various sites and cities in the region. The grill was a bonus for Provencal dinners at home.
We were warmly welcomed by Jean-Pierre. He was helpful and responsive before and throughout our visit. We received a lot of information about the region from the Brunels.
We wholeheartedly recommend that you stay at Villa Alba while in Provence.

Superb place! - Mahtava paikka!
This house was built with love and it was also taken care by the owner Jean Pierre, who was really helpful and caring.
The combination of the modern architecture and gorgeous view to the valley and mountains makes a perfect mix. House is carefully designed to level with a free panoramic vista, all exterior design choices match with the location: dual gated car park for easy in-out driving, site used in three levels, sun directions and all details of places to rest, eat, grill, swim etc. We were just five but the house could have easily hosted 10 visitors and even more enjoying a party for example.
Site location is perfect for touring around southern France.
We can warmly recommend this place to any family or group of adults as a place to enjoy!
Erittäin siisti, viihtyisä ja hieno talo, johon 5-henkinen perheemme mahtui hyvin, mutta tilaa riittäisi jopa 10 hengelle. Talo edustaa modernia arkkitehtuuria, ja se on hyvällä maulla sisustettu. Pihalla on lämmitetty uima-allas, ja kahdelta terassilta avautuu upea näköala vehreään laaksoon ja vuorille. Talo sijaitsee viehättävässä kylässä, mutta sieltä on myös helppo tehdä retkiä läheisiin kaupunkeihin (esim. Arlesiin ja Avignoniin). Vuokraisäntä oli ystävällinen ja avulias. Voimme erittäin lämpimästi suositella taloa perheille ja seurueille.

Really impressive
The villa is really impressive, with unique view over the region. We - especially the kids - loved the heated swimming pool, the nice weather was a good opportunity to do it daily. Value for money! The location of the house is very central in the area of Provence. The house is very spacious and very clean. We'd love to come back.
