Great Location In A Great Town

Great location, steps from center of Paradou, and interesting property, which has been heavily upgraded. Owner should work to insure that it is cleaner, and better maintained. We had no soap, a dirty cleaning towel in the bathroom, air conditioning controllers with dead batteries, a few light bulbs that were dead. Once WE fixed these, things were far better. I would recommend a better cleaning before renting it out, otherwise a really nice property.

Black Mold

The house had mold in the living room behind furniture and we had to leave after one night. The person who met us did not speak any English so there was a communication problem. The owner refunded 5 nights stay. We could not get out of there before 10 am, because we had no where to go. Luckily I found another VRBO. I paid two nights and cleaning deposit, plus host fee and taxes for 7 nights because I wanted to escape. I should have gotten everything back because it was a health hazard, it would have been a kindness from the owner to refund all the money. I lung problems and I am on oxygen 24 hours a day. Serious health problem for elderly people.

Jolie maison pleine de charme située en plein cœur du village au calme des voisins avec un jardin spacieux ombragé et une grande terrasse baignée de soleil. Les commerces boulangerie au top, boucherie, épicerie, restaurant en face de la mairie sont tous accessibles à pied. La région quand à elle est tout simplement magnifique ! Que de choses à voir et à visiter, des randonnées exceptionnelles ! Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir. Merci à Myriam pour sa gentillesse et son sourire.

Charmantes, altes Dorfhaus im Grünen

Wir haben unsere Ferien in diesem Haus in Paradou sehr genossen. Es liegt sehr ruhig, etwas versteckt aber trotzdem zentral im Dorf. Die Ausstattung ist wie beschrieben und war ausreichend für Urlaub mit 4 Personen. Die Terassen mit dem grünen kleinen Garten sind das besondere an diesem Haus. Man sollte wissen, dass es ein altes Gebäude ist, bei dem etwas Staub, Knarren und die ein oder andere Insekten dazugehören. Uns hat dies nicht gestört. Angenehmer unkomplizierter Kontakt zur freundlichen Vermieterin. Empfehlenswert!

Schönes Ferienhaus, ideal für viele Orte in der Umgebung

Das Ferienhaus ist sehr zentral gelegen, dadurch kann man viele Orte besuchen z.B. Nimes, Avignon, Marseillie, Arles, Aix-en-provence etc. und es gibt unzählige Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Nähe. Es sind alle nötigen Utensilien im Hause vorhanden um den Aufenthalt so angenhem wie möglich zu gestalten. Einzig die Auffahrt in die Garage ist für etwas weniger bodenfreie Autos nicht geeignet, aber freie Parkplätze in der Nähe sind vorhanden.

Ideal location, very cozy home.

We have stayed before and recommended to others who have stayed. Great location - 45 -60 minutes to all the highlights of Provence. Walking distance to very good restaurants, bakery, butcher and convenience store. Comfortable and well furnished. Lovely shaded yard with several seating areas. Also, enclosed sunroom.

Heerlijk weekje genoten van dit kleine maar complete huisje met super buiten-ruimten waaronder groot zonneterras. Auto keurig in eigen garage (waarvan de oprit behoorlijk steil is). Alle benodigde faciliteiten aanwezig, incl. gas-bbq. Rust en mooi weer was volop aanwezig.

Maison très agréable dans une région magnifique !

Maison très agréable, offrant de belles prestations: véranda, terrasse ensoleillée, salle de bain/salle d'eau dans chaque chambre, climatisation (ce qui s'avère vite utile dans la région!)...Le jardin est très beau. Idéalement située dans le village du Paradou, au calme tout en étant à un jet de pierre des commerces de première nécessité, cette maison est le point de départ parfait pour découvrir la région (Saint Rémy, Mouriès, les Baux de Provence, Arles, Avignon, le Luberon voisin, les chemins de randonnées dans les Alpilles...). Merci à Doris pour la facilité des échanges au moment de la réservation et à Nathalie pour son accueil chaleureux.

En tant qu’habitants de l’IDF, nous sommes plus habitués au slogan « Ici c’est PARIS ! ». Nous avons découvert « Ici c’est le PARadIS ». Merci à Jean-Luc pour la qualité de son accueil. Quant à la maison... Elle correspond en tous points à la description. Tout marche... sans aucune difficulté. La terrasse (solarium) est parfaite... Grande, plein sud, avec une vue magnifique sur les Alpilles. De plus l’endroit est au calme mais bénéficie des commerces de première nécessité à 300 mètres, dans le village. Just préfect !!!

Eine Terrasse für Sonnenanbeter

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit diesem Feriendomizil. Als Ausgangsort für alle möglichen Touren ideal und auch inerhalb des Dorfes ein charmanter Platz, vor allem mit der großen und kleinen Terrasse und dem Wintergarten, auch mit den fußläufig erreichbaren Geschäften. Leider fanden wir das Haus nicht gleich, weil man uns die Adresse mit "Rue..." und nicht mit "Route..." angegeben hatte. Da konnte uns die Navigation nicht helfen. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur litt darunter, dass der 24 Stunden-Zeitraum, innerhalb dessen ein Eigentümer reagieren soll, jedenfalls am Wochenende zu knapp bemessen ist, so dass wir uns zwar direkt mit der Vermieterin auf eine Terminverschiebung verständigen konnten, aber mit der Agentur alles neu angehen mussten. Das war lästig. Leider waren auch gerade ringsherum heftige Bauarbeiten im Gange, insbesondere auf der Straße und der Zufahrt sowie in der Nachbarschaft - sehr sehr viel Baulärm. Wir hätten das gern vorher gewusst. Das Fazit aber bleibt: Wir würden hier in ruhigeren Zeiten gern noch einmal hinfahren und haben es daher unseren Kindern und Freunden empfohlen, nicht zuletzt auch wegen des Direktkontaktes mit der liebenswürdigen Eigentümerin.

Fabulous location

This property is wonderful. Two comfortable bedrooms, both with air conditioning which we appreciated in August. A nice living room and kitchen, also washer and dryer. The outdoor areas are special, but it was so warm we only used them in the evenings. The house is a five-minute walk from the center of the village, where there is a good bakery, small SPAR supermarket with everything we needed, and a friendly cafe/ bistro with lots of indoor and outdoor seating, Bistro Castillon. Seemed popular with locals and visitors. The food was excellent. We also ate at Bec restaurant, which is more upscale. There is a on-star Michelin restaurant also, called Le Bistro du Paradou, but we didn't get a chance to try it. The nearby town of Maussane has lots of good places to eat on the central square, a very lively place. Less than half an hour away are some vineyards and Chateau d'Estoublon. The three of us had a great week there. A negative was the four locks that had to be locked and unlocked every time we left, which made it tricky if one of us wanted to stay behind, but it was a small problem. Also, be sure to get a little car because the garage and driveway are very tight. It's a wonderful location.

Great vacation home at the foot of the Alpilles.

Doris' home in Paradou met all our expectations. It was comfortable - especially the mattresses! - and well-equipped for our week+ stay. The neighborhood is quiet and Paradou is perfectly located for day trips to the sights of Provence, from Orange to Cassis; from the Luberon to Arles, and beyond. Highly recommended!

Idéalement placé pour la visite de la région car très central ( les baux de provence, les carrières de lumières, Maussane, Fontvieille, Arles, Eygalière, St Rémy de provence) personnellement nous avons tout fait à vélo (aux milieu des oliviers) sauf l'escapade à la mer au grau du roi ( 1h en voiture). Très bonne literie. Nathalie et son mari nous ont super bien accueillis sur place.
