Stay at Villa Algues
We had a fantastic vacation in this house. It was perfect for what we needed. Spacious, great locality, proximity to the town, play parks near by, beautiful swimming pool (which was slightly heated which was perfect) and the "wow" factor. Solene greeted us at the property and she was very professional and helpful. The process and communication was fantastic. The house is suitable for all ages and had fantastic amenities. I would highly recommend a stay at the house and Solene as a Host.
Très bon accueil de Solene . merci Très bon niveau de prestation . À renouveler !
