We really loved our stay. The house is the perfect oasis and jumping-off point for excursions. We went to the Porquerolles and swam at Plage Nôtre-Dame, but my favourite swim was probably at Île de Rédonne—an amazing place for snorkelling. The house is well-situated, close to groceries and a cafe/bar and several restaurants.
We really enjoyed our stay. Great location for walking to the local restaurants, shops, beach…Parking in the local car park.The house is well equipped, spacious, clean with terraces and most importantly decent Air Conditioning helping to survive 30-37C outside. Our favourite was Plage du Pontillon (well worth a trek/hike) peaceful, secluded, beautiful…Thank you for lovely stay.Andrius Family
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour !La maison est magnifique, moderne et très confortable. Nous étions avec un adolescent qui a beaucoup apprécié d’avoir sa propre chambre avec salle de bain privée. Depuis la terrasse, la vue est tout simplement splendide.L’emplacement est idéal pour découvrir la région. Nous reviendrons l’année prochaine avec grand plaisir.Un grand merci !
Sehr gut ausgestattet, fussläufig zum Bäcker/kleiner Supermarkt/Restaurants, schöne Terrassen plus Panorama-Fenster mit schönem Ausblick, sehr nette Kommunikation
Maison très proche de toutes commodités
Pour visiter l île de porquerolle c est très simple grâce au bus
La maison est très agréable à vivre
…un petit havre de paix
Parking juste à côté et gratuit
En plus du confort du logement, qui est tres bien équipé, le gros point fort est la vue sur la baie - splendide et dont on peut bénéficier sur les deux terrasses. De plus l'appartement est situé a 3 min à pied du village avec les commerces, et a 5 minutes de la plage
Appartement comme une maison dans le centre de Giens
Joli appartement avec deux grandes terrasses, très bien situé dans le centre ville avec de grands parkings à proximité. Petites criques et restaurants typiques. Très mignon.
Belle maison, bien agencée, avec tout le confort nécessaire.
Vue mer magnifique.
A 2 pas du centre du village de Giens et de la plage de l’almanare, tout se fait à pied. Le parking gratuit au pied de la maison est très pratique.
Séjour fait en famille avec enfants, mais le logement est parfait en couple ou entre amis.
Nous y retournerons
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour à la Toussaint. La maison est très bien située (5' à pied de la plage et d'une école de planche à voile et 2' à pied du joli centre de Giens). La maison est très bien équipée et la vue très belle. Le seul bémol serait l'isolation sonore des chambres : la chambre du bas ferme avec une porte coulissante mal isolée et la chambre du haut n'a pas de fermeture vis à vis de la salle de vie. Pas très pratique quand les réveils sont échelonnés.
Sinon, tout était parfait et nous recommandons cette location.
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Kommunikation war hervorragend, unkompliziert und wir haben schnelle Unterstützung erhalten. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
Tolle Lage* - 6 min zu Fuß zum Meer - herrlicher Blick auf die Küste und das Meer - sehr gut ausgestattete Küche - sehr freundliche Vermieter - ... ' werden wieder kommen ;-)
*angrenzenden Straßen waren kaum befahren

Nur bedingt zufrieden
(Sie müssen das nicht unbedingt in die öffentlich zugängliche Bewertung aufnehmen, es soll eher der internen Qualitätsverbesserung hilfreich sein)
Das Haus ist sehr originell und großzügig, zumal wenn man nur zu zweit darin wohnt. Das EG Schlafzimmer mit direktem Toiletten und Dusch Zugang ist ebenso witzig wie gewöhnungsbedürftig.
Ein wenig ist das Haus "in die Jahre" gekommen: Siphon oben riecht, unten manchmal Wasser am Boden (woher auch immer), die Schiebetür klemmt, beim letzten abschließen ging das Türschloss kaputt, das Geschirr war nur bedingt sauber.
Die drei Terrassen/Balkone sind allerdings super. Der Blick aufs Mittelmeer ist großartig. Die Nähe zum Dorfzentrum ist sehr nützlich.
Unser großes Problem war der Verkehr und Verkehrslärm, selbst im Mai, insbesondere von der unmittelbar vorbeiführenden, ansteigenden Straße, auch unten vom großen Parkplatz. Das haben wir total unterschätzt. Hinzu kam die ungebundene Freude der Franzosen beim Hecken und Bodengras schneiden, Strassen kehren und Laub pusten im Innerort mit unüberhörbaren Instrumenten.
Meine Frau wurde nicht müde mir vorzuwerfen, dass ich das alles (als Stadtplaner) hätte wissen können. Sie hat recht.
In nachhaltiger Erinnerung bleiben die schönen Fahrrad und Wander Ausflüge auf der Insel oder mit dem Auto in der Region, dazu das tägliche Schwimmen am Nordoststrand.
Für unseren VW Bus haben wir übrigens immer einen nahen Parkplatz gefunden.
Schöne Grüße von Rosi und Bernd Fahle aus Hinterzarten.
Petite maison sympathique au pied du village de Giens avec vue sublime sur la côte et l’Almanarre.
La chambre du bas étant moins spacieuse et sans vue, comme indiqué dans un précédent avis, il me semble plus adapté à une famille qu’à deux couples, d’autant que les pièces communiquent au niveau sonore.
Cuisine parfaitement équipée, lits très confortables et personne très accueillante et réactive, sur place, pour le séjour.
Nous avons apprécié le calme du mois de février et les longues balades sur le sentier littoral, l’authenticité du village.
