Aug 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Maison tout confort Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette jolie maison. Elle est située dans un village plein de charme, et proche de toutes les commodités. La piscine est magnifique, la terrasse donne sur le marais, de quoi profiter du calme ambiant. Quant à la maison, elle est équipée de tout le nécessaire ! Thermomix, kitchenaid, nespresso, et tous les ustensiles de cuisine dont on a besoin. La literie est exceptionnelle, nous avons tous très bien dormi. Chaque chambre a sa propre salle de bain et toilettes, ce qui permet à chaque famille d’avoir son intimité. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour !!! ##### Marine M. Stayed 11 nights in Aug 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nizar J. May 18, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Une Agréable Maison & Un séjour Parfait Nous étions agréablement surpris par cette superbe maison. Tout est parfait. - Un très joli décor moderne et chic - Un set complet d'équipements récents et hyper pratiques mis à disposition des hôtes - Une literie PARFAITE pour un séjour très reposant et relaxant - Des jeux mis à dispo des enfants (entre 1 et 7 ans). Chacun d'eux a trouvé son bonheur - La piscine Chauffée et la Jaccousie sont également un GRAND plus pour des moments de joie et détente pour toute la famille. A ces superbes qualités de la maison, s'ajoute l'accueil Sympathique de Laure et Marie qui étaient hyper gentilles, et très accueillantes (un super apéro à l'arrivée en plus de la confiture fait maison et du miel produit dans la région pour notre premier petit dej). Finalement, je ne peux sans doute pas oublier le cadre général du séjour : Arçais un superbe village magnifique calme et beau avec sa Venise Verte (on a passé un agréable moment à bateau). De plus, à 40 minutes on trouve la Rochelle avec son joli vieux port et son centre-ville authentique. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour et on a vraiment hâte d'y revenir. Merci Laure pour votre accueil et à très bientôt :) ##### Nizar J. Stayed 3 nights in May 2021
