Incredible experience

We had an incredible stay in Miramas, the apartment is located in a medieval town about halfway up the hill; nearby are some great crêperies that we went back to many times. The balcony was the highlight of the apartment, with an incredible view over the water and every sunset. Gabriella was a gracious host and always available to answer questions, she also was quick to say hello every time we saw her. With four people the apartment was a bit cramped but I would stay here again in a heartbeat if I was planning another vacation in Provence.

Merveilleuse!

Cher Michel Thank you for a wonderful stay in your charming house in Miramas le vieux! We loved sitting on your patio with fantastic views of the surrounding landscape & l’Etang de Berre. Visits from Romy, the affectionate black kitty, were an added pleasure for us! The quaint village is busy with foot traffic for the ice cream shops but otherwise very very quiet. The apt. is well stocked with a perfect kitchen, large walk in shower & more great views. M le vieux is centrally located for various outings in Provence & the Camargue. We highly recommend a relaxing stay at Michel’s! Merci beaucoup! Rebecca & Mike, Suisse

Fabulous views from light and airy apartment located in mediaeval village

My husband and I spent 3 months over summer at Gabriella and Michel’s apartment in Miramas le Vieux, a mediaeval village located at the northern tip of the large Étang de Berre in the south of France. The apartment is light and airy and true to the photos, with an independent and secure entrance via a huge, private terrace. Gabriella and Michel are wonderful hosts. They respond to requests very quickly but are respectful of privacy. The apartment is well supplied for a short or long stay and has the bonus of a private parking spot next to the apartment within the village. Both the apartment and the terrace have amazing views over the Étang de Berre and the countryside, while the terrace is the perfect spot for daytime and evening meals, entertaining or just relaxing. We had a lovely time; thank you Gabriella and Michel!

Property Miramas le Vieux

we were disappointed by this property and only stayed one night of the 7 booked. we did not feel it was cleaned to a good standard. it felt old and tired compared to the pictures. we did not expect to be upstairs from the owners or that we would be sharing the terrace. the priate parking was behind the owners car in a tight space on a steep uphill. there was no mention in the description that there were 3 cats on the premises. the check in process was strange as we had to meet the owner in a car park by some recycling bins to then get access to the village through the barrier. we noted other favourable reviews but we were disapointed

Quiet apartment, adequate for our family of three. The living room is quite big and even though we had the sofa bed out the whole time, it didn’t feel cramped as there was another sofa for sitting on. Washing machine was convenient. Gabriella and Michel are both friendly and very helpful. Car parking was easy and hardly tight. You just slot in behind the hosts’ car and they always leave enough space. The balcony was shared but the hosts respected our privacy. During the whole time we were there, we had the exclusive use of the balcony. But note this is downstairs and not on the same level as the apartment.

Super Lage mit schöner Aussicht und sehr netten Vermietern

Schon ca. 1 Woche vor der Anreise nahm die Vermieterin, Gabriella, mit uns Kontakt per Mail auf, um die ungefähre Anreisezeit abzustimmen.Wir reisten am Samstagnachmittag an und waren sehr überrascht, als Gabriella uns auf Deutsch begrüßte. Es sei zwar schon viele Jahre her, aber etwas Deutsch könne Sie aus der Schulzeit. Sie zeigte uns die Ferienwohnung und wo wir alles finden, was dazu gehört. Beim Ausräumen der Koffer fanden wir dann noch Seife der Vormieter in der Dusche. Wie wir später im Gästebuch gelesen haben, waren diese erst am Vormittag ausgezogen. Dafür ein Stern Abzug bei der Sauberkeit. Sonst war alles TOP, die Terrasse bietet eine tolle Aussicht über den Salzwassersee und das Umland. Gabriella und Ihr Mann, Michel, sind sehr freundlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit gewesen. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und wären gerne länger geblieben und werden bestimmt wiederkommen.

Beautiful spot to relax

The positive reviews are all correct here, we absolutely loved our stay. Nice location for day trips, easy drive to the beaches of the Mediterranean, or to Arles. But most of all we enjoyed relaxing and reading with the breeze of the étang flowing through the windows. The terrace is amazing and we enjoyed having drinks and playing cards while soaking in the view.

A fantastic apartment - spotlessly clean, very well equipped and comfortable. There is a wonderful and large terrace with amazing views over the village and surrounding countryside. Lots to see and do in the area - close up Arles and other lovely towns, plus the Camargue. A very friendly and helpful host - many thanks. Highly recommended.

Es ist alles vorhanden. Das sehr kleine Dorf bietet 3 Restaurants und 2 Eisdielen, jedoch keinen Lebensmittel-Laden. Man deckt sich lieber vorher in Miramas ein.

Nous avons pris cette location pour profiter en 1er lieu de la terrasse car nous connaissions très bien la région. On a pu recevoir nos amis sur la grande terrasse abritée toujours ventée avec des rideaux si besoin en fin d'après midi. Les propriétaires qui sont sur place sont charmants et discrets. Le gros plus : le parking à proximité de la location. Manque plus que le jaccuzi ! Nous reviendrons sans hésitation en famille pour revoir nos amis.

Lovely views, special town

I didn’t know much about Miramas-Le Vieux, so I was confused about directions to the apartment at first. But once we got there, the place was great. Gabriella met us at the entrance to the village and brought us to the apartment on a steep hill of cobblestones overlooking a huge lagoon. It was great to have our own parking spot. The apartment was clean and everything we needed was provided. Just note, the big terrace is shared with the main house, and the owners do have cats. They’re not allowed in the apartment, but if you have more sensitive allergies, they could affect you. Very helpful hosts and a special place to stay!

Fantastic view of lake and countryside

What first strikes you on arrival is that the view from the huge veranda is better than the pictures. Our hosts Gabriella and Michel were very helpful and friendly. The apartment is very spacious, open plan kitchen, lounge, diner, separate bedroom and bathroom with a very good shower, great for the two of us and our dog. The property is in the middle of Mirmas le Vieux ideal for local restaurants and bars, also perfectly placed to explore the area around the lake 'Etang de Berre'. We particularly liked Salon de Provence, there are lots of pretty small towns with historic interest and plenty of restaurants just remember lunch is noon to 2.30pm and dinner 7.00pm to 9.30pm in a lot of places.
