We had a wonderful 8 days. Having the little village nearby was a huge bonus, so we had a couple of evenings there as unfortunately I suffered a back injury, so was not up to walking to many places.
I will try to be concise in this feedback, so invariably my comments should be taken as a “broad brush” approach !
Good points:
1) Good value for money for what we had. Maybe because it was not ‘high’ season?
2) Good position (we are no longer big city people, so did not really take to Sable d’Olonne, but loved the little village of Pironiere just on our doorstep. It had everything you need on holiday, including great pizzas, a friendly bar, fresh veg, post box, stationary etc!)
3) Very spacious lounge and kitchen area, well stocked with good quality utensils.
4) Good free wifi access to the villa.
5) Great restaurant on site for a ‘treat meal’, fabulous food. I can see why they are so well booked.
6) Lovely to have hot croissants and bread on site first thing in the morning.
7) Ten out of ten for cleanliness all round.
8) Very private, even though there were so many villas (we did not get our swimsuits wet all week !!)
9) Great to have ones own car parking space and private boules court next to the villa.
10) Excellent staff, very attentive, language no probs, even when we tried our poor French, we were understood.
11) Having a heated pool for €20 a day was a real bonus, especially first thing in the morning.
Not such good points:
1) Bedrooms very cramped, difficult to get into very low beds, so we only used downstairs bedrooms
2) Metal bed frames were a bit unforgiving, resulting in a few bruised shins!!
3) Understandable, but nearly all TV, videos, books etc. in Dutch!
4) I can’t think of any other negatives, and these 3 were the only minor gripes.
