We so enjoyed our stay in this fantastic flat. The property is even prettier and more comfy than the photos and the location is super. The flat was perfectly equipped for our holiday and our host was helpful and responsive. We’d love to stay again. Book with confidence. This property is an excellent one!

Christine and Thierry were extremely helpful before and during our stay. The apartment is spotless and they have thought of everything. The location is amazing with beautiful river views. The beds are comfortable. All in all a perfect stay. We hope to return soon.

We are on a whirlwind tour of France. Mostly 3-night stays in about 15 different locations. We chose to stay 6 nights in L’Isle Sur Le Sorgue to unwind after very long flights from Hawaii So glad we did, and so glad that we ended up in this VRBO.
L’Isle Sur Le Sorgue is a quiet town, except for market days, and this site offered a view of one branch of the river, and nearby parking. We’re visiting France for about two months, so our suitcases are fairly loaded, and parking right outside our window was ideal.
I’ve deliberately held off writing this review till we have experienced more VRBO rentals, in different locations, because I wanted to be fair and unbiased in my reviews. Certainly our impressions of the various VRBO rentals have been influenced, at least in part, by the neighborhood and surrounding cities we have visited.
Everything about this rental was top notch. Great location in a great little town with a lot of character. There is a kindergarten next door and we loved to hear the little ones playing. In the park out our window on the other side of the apartment, we saw and heard people playing pètanque, walking their dogs and lovers holding hands while strolling. We were serenaded one evening by a young man on a park bench opposite our window.
That window is in a 2nd floor apartment, which for Americans, means it is actually up two full flights of stairs. 42 steps. We schlepped all of our bags up there and back down. Big mistake.

I’m so glad that we extended our stay. We certainly enjoyed our first three nights in L’Isle Sur La Sorgue, and continue to enjoy the second three. At this moment, around 7pm on Saturday evening, we have a guitarist serenading us, the sounds of pétanque floating up from the park, and small kid voices and laughter coming from the town side. The nursery school next door provides entertainment on week days. If we ever get back to France, we will try to return to this site.

Great upgrade by the owners but not for anyone afraid of stairs. Super location for the less than 10 minute walk to many, many restaurants in L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue. Parking is across the street, first come. All appliances were provided along with coffee, water, etc. To get started. Pharmacy very close and supermarket was within 10 minutes walk. Keep in mind Mondays in town are VERY quiet, many restaurants are closed and Thursday market was very busy.
All in all a great location to explore the local area.

Apartment was in historic building in quiet location with views to waterway. Lots of free parking nearby. Kitchen and bathroom were modern and very well equipped. Apartment was tastefully furnished and had many thoughtful touches. Warm welcome from our host. A delightful stay.

There is almost too many good things to say about the place. The unit was even more than advertised. It was very clean and well appointed (it had all that we needed). What was nice was how open and airy the unit was. We could open the windows and enjoy the nice breeze. The unit has plenty of room to relax after a long day of exploring. Lots of helpful information provided by the host. Excellent location to use as a based to explore Provence.
Really enjoyed the local town of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue. Plenty to do there ranging from markets to a wide variety of restaurants. Plus there is always the waterwheels! Thank you for sharing the place!

Communication with Christine and Thierry was great through VRBO app and they always replied promptly, sent us lots of info for arrival and we easily found the apartment and car park opposite . Christine met us as arranged and showed us apartment which was lovely ,they supplied 2 large fans additional to air conditioning in bedroom as weather very hot . Tea ,coffee ,condiments and liquid for washing machine and dishwasher etc supplied which was great .The apartment is in a great location and a very short walk to centre ,antique shops and restaurants etc . It is quiet at night too and the bed was very comfy .We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it is a great town with lots to do and great places to eat . Would definitely recommend booking with Christine and Thierry in one of their apartments .

Unfortunately, our stay was uncomfortable, partly due to a lack of communication. Christine spoke no English and my French is poor. Thus, a lot of our questions went unanswered. She did give us an excellent recommendation for dinner at « Cafe de France. » We did not realize that we were located on the « wrong » side of the old town, as all the scenic street views, restaurants, and night life were on the other side. Maybe she told us but I didn’t understand her?
On the positive side, there was plenty of coffee and sugar, greatly appreciated. We did not cook but the kitchen seemed well-equipped to do so. However, no freezer, so no ice, or bringing home ice cream as was our habit. We appreciated that Christine arrived to meet us at the apartment with a park space, as finding the apartment was difficult due to the one-way street, and despite the free car parks in front, they were always full so finding parking whenever we came back, was an ordeal.
The apartment was HOT! Advertised as air-conditioned but it is not. The small unit in the upstairs bed loft blew barely cool air so did nothing towards cooling the living space. The bed was hard and we could not sleep due to the heat. Opening windows provided a cross breeze, but there were too many mosquitoes for that.
Three flights of stairs to the apartment itself no problem; advertised and expected. But the stairs to the bed are treacherous; the tread is way too narrow (my size 7 U..S. foot did not fit!) Much steeper than noticeable in photos and industrial METAL, textured as one finds OUTSIDE leading up to bridges. Needing shoes and descending sideways to use the bathroom during the night is unacceptable.
We did not feel as though we had privacy. Christine kept texting (in French, so I didn’t understand), and she knocked on our door Sunday morning when we were still showering and getting ready for the day. I can’t explain what reason she had for this, but we believe she would have entered the apartment had we not been there. We felt like we were being « watched » and « supervised » and hovered over, the entire stay. Once in an apartment, we want to be left alone.
Overall, we found this apartment to be below the standard of others we have stayed in around Provence for the same price.

My wife and were in Europe three weeks for our honeymoon and chose this apartment to stay in while enjoying Provence. We preferred the small town feel over Avignon and St Reme, although both were within a 20 minute drive. It was also closer to the hill towns of Gordes and Roussillon which is a real plus. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable. The owner was responsive and it’s location within the town was convenient. We would stay there again.

Very comfortable apartment with great amenities. Hosts are wonderful and helpful. Quiet neighborhood just a short walk from shopping and restaurants. Pick an alley to walk through. They are all fascinating. There are 42 stairs to the apartment so when you go out don’t forget anything!

The apartment was fantastic. Clean and well appointed. I appreciated the welcome book in English with manuals for the different appliances. In the morning we enjoyed opening the windows and listening to the kids in the school playground but if we wanted to sleep late it was not disruptive. In the evening we would sit on one of the benches across from the apartment and talk about the highlights of the day and what the next days plan was. I had a question about shipping something home and Christine responded promptly and then she dropped off bubble wrap...so thoughtful! I look forward to returning and exploring more of this beautiful area and will plan on staying at this fantastic apartment.

The apartment was very nice, clean, and perfectly located. Parking was easy and we could walk a very short distance from the apartment to visit restaurants, cafes and other sites in town. Christine was super helpful and met us at the apartment to show us around. We would DEFINITELY stay there again.

We loved our stay here! Exactly as pictured and described, but even better. So nicely done and appointed. Super comfortable and convenient to everything. Plus the hosts are so incredibly sweet and helpful. Highly recommend!

We stayed at the apartment during one of the hottest weeks ever. The average temperature was 97 degrees. The air conditioning was helpful. Christine and Thierry gave us a floor fan and then an extra fan. Very considerate. In addition, we arrived by train -- no car. So, Christine not only picked us up at the station, but also dropped us off at the end of our stay on a day when it was raining. Really went above and beyond. The apartment was very clean and had all that we required. We cooked a few meals there and had enough cooking items -- no problem. The location is quiet and still within a 5 minute walk from the center of town. One of the waterwheels was right outside our door. The third floor steps were a bit challenging with suitcases, but probably helped us keep off the pounds from eating in town. In all, loved the apartment and the hosts. Highly recommend. We will definitely stay there again.

Wonderful place with everything you will need. It was very well equipped with everything you could need, except for maybe a little freezer to keep some ice cold. Everything is well designed and you can feel yourself at home there. Perfect communications to the owners, lots of helpful information. The only little negative point is, that the air conditioning and the fans don`t bring the temperature down enough if it is to hot outside. But it is not possible to integrate a bigger AC due to the architecture,, so it is what it is. Would still book again without hesitation! Thank you agein for our nearly perfect stay!

There are not enough words to describe this outstanding property and the amazing hosts! We knew we would be well cared for as Thierry and Christine went above and beyond to meet us in town after hours to transport us to the apartment when we had to alter our transportation to L'Isle. We felt right at home from the minute we walked in the door. Chris and Thierry thought of every detail- water, plush towels, detailed instruction on the apartment/town, and lavender at the bedside. The location in town is perfect for exploring the restaurants, businesses, and of course the market! The apartment overlooks the canal and there is plenty of free parking outside the door. Unfortunately for us, the coronavirus pandemic globally escalated during our stay. We had to urgently return to the US. Thierry helped to facilitate our safe return by assisting us and arranging immediate taxi transport to Marseilles. His accessibility and willingness to help us during this time were exceptional. It goes without saying that we will not hesitate to stay here again when we return to L'Isle.

We stayed at this loft for two nights and we enjoyed it a lot. Kitchen is well equipped and the bedroom upstairs is very cosy. Christine was very kind and helpful when she welcomed us giving us good recommendations for dining, shopping and sightseeing.

Wonderful apartment, clean, comfortable and great location. Bed was very comfortable. Apartment is in the centre of town with a short walk to the church and market. Lots of free parking outside the apartment. Very thoughtful hosts, let us check in early and had water, olive oil, coffee and other necessities provided to start our stay. Would recommend to anyone to stay here and would 100% stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chris and Thierry's apartment in the beautiful village of L'isle-sur-la-Sorgue. The apartment is lovely and provided for all our needs and if we needed a rest during the day it was very easy to go home for a short rest (Which we never did...too much to explore). We will stay there again when next in the Provence area.

The flat is within an original old building right on the river and 5 mins walk to the town Square and it's great range of shops and restaurants. Always found parking near the flat and the kitchen is set up for cooking in, which we did a couple of nights. Don't miss the massive market that takes over the whole town on Sundays. We highly recommend this accommodation and the service provided by Thierry and Christine.
