We stayed here in late May and the property and location exceeded our expectations. Nathalie was very communicative and welcoming. The villa was spacious, clean, well stocked with all the necessary utensils crockery and appliances you need. The layout of the rooms was great for us giving everyone thier own space and our kids really enjoyed the pool. The addition of the electric cover was especially good for peace of mind as we have a toddler. The local town is a delightful quintessentially French spot, with everything you could need and cycle paths and bike rentals are on the doorstep. We can’t wait to come back!

Very well equipped and a lovely quiet location. host was incredibly helpful and the house was spacious and well laid out. If we had to find a negative it would be the beds. OK if you like rock hard but absolutely terrible if you like medium.

Perfect accommodation with plenty of space for 6 of us for one week. Check in and check out all went well with great communication from host. Private outside area with a fantastic pool. Good location for exploring the island. Highly recommend this property.

Can only describe this beautiful house with a wow. From the minute we walked in and looked around we were amazed by the tranquility and surroundings. Attention to detail amazing, spotless,comfortable accommodation with lovely pool In the courtyard. Great location for exploring the local area and stunning Ile de Re. Bars and restaurants nearby. Made use of hire bikes locally to explore also. A couple of minor additions would be perfect, a fan in the bedrooms as was very hot and some plastic glasses for pool area. Thank you to Madame Leveque for your hospitality. We would love to come back again one day.

The house and pool were a very relaxing place to spend time and the electric awning is a great way of providing shade, although there were only four loungers available. Eating outside is available back and front. Our main surprise was to arrive and find an absence of basic essentials such as dishcloths, scourers, washing up liquid and hand soap in the bathrooms. This could be a great place to stay with a few more thoughtful touches.

This house is fantastic. Exceeded our high expectations. Very high standard and well equipped. Good location close to the sea and good restaurants. The owners very charming. We will be back!

A lovely week in a villa that was perfect for a family. Everyone had their own space which made the stay more enjoyable. The location is lovely and quiet.

We were very much looking forward to our week together as a family, having had to cancel this booking two years running because of the pandemic. The property is as described online, modern, secure and compact; good beds and a lovely covered area where we could eat outside. There are only 4 loungers outside though and as there were 7 adults in the party, we fought over these! What we were surprised about was that the only thing in the villa were 4 dishwasher tablets and ant killer. No dishcloth, washing up liquid, cleaner for spills, basic herbs or oil, soap or welcome basket. In our 14 years of renting family villas, we have not come across this before. It meant many trips to the supermarket! I found the owners slow to respond to emails or did not respond fully which made me very anxious about the rental. We were annoyed that there was no cot bedding when I had specifically asked if we needed bring our own. Some plastic glasses (we bought some after a couple of breakages) for outside and plastic plates for the children would also have been useful, otherwise it was well equipped. We didn’t particularly like Rivedoux. We had apparently arrived on a bank holiday weekend and the roads for two days were full, bumper to bumper, of traffic ALL day. As the town is next to the bridge to La Rochelle, there was a constant stream of traffic all week. We had a real issue getting to the villa as the number the owners gave us for a taxi did not respond/was unobtainable and no other taxi firm replied. There were no taxis at the rank when we arrived and again, none responded to calls. I’d advise anyone arriving by plane to sort this out beforehand. When texting the owners of the villa that we were stranded, they replied to let them know when we arrived at the villa and they would bring the key. My son and daughter arrived first and they sent over their teenage daughter who gave them basic instructions. Overall, we enjoyed our holiday - we had waited so long for it - but it could have been so much better.
