Feeling home , the sea almost on the doorstep , vacation on the white island

Studio "Rhéa" for two persons

Relax and enjoy the perfect blend of tranquility and holiday experience in your studio on the Island "Ile de Ré".
With a short walk to the beach or to the city center of Le Bois-Plage-en-Ré there are many ways to enjoy your day.

You can relax in a bright little house with a garden, where you can cool down under an Umbrella pine after sunbathing or swimming and you can prepare regional delicacies on the brick BBQ.
Your vehicles are protected inside a gated area.

The beach is very quiet and located behind the dunes at the end of the road between two public sections of beach and is less frequented since it can only be reached by the residents.

Freshly baked croissants and baguettes for breakfast are just a few minutes away with a short walk to the city center.

A small supermarket is located before the market hall. Fresh fish, fresh fruits, vegetables and a variety of cheeses and other regional products are offered there.

During the tourist season the streets are filled with market stands. This is where artists, craftsmen and merchants sell their goods.

In small shops there are handmade soaps, jams and chutneys, clothing, furnishings and beautiful keepsakes which will remind you of your vacation for a long time.

There are small cafe bars which may easily persuade you to have a second breakfast, a typical French experience.

The island is well developed for cyclists and if you enjoy biking you will receive as many impressions as there are tones of white colored houses.

There are pine forests, vineyards, farmland and salt ponds which spread out like patch-work across the flat grass lands and there is a different beach on every shore.

Each location on the island has its own flair. You will discover streets lined with hollyhocks.

You can visit small art workshops in courtyards or restaurants and ice cream parlors near the sea.

Take time to marvel at yachts and cutters in the port or climb the lighthouse on the north-western tip of the island.

There is so much to admire, discover and enjoy.
Be welcome.

Comfortable and convenient. Great Location. Loss of WiFi disappointing
This was our 3rd visit and we were very happy to return. We had a great week which was spoilt by the loss of WiFi half-way through our holiday. This was due to a planned change of provider but we weren't warned in advance. The concierge did everything she could to help.

Perfect place for a holiday
This was our first trip to the Isle de Re and we loved it. We managed to cycle everywhere in the island- there is plenty to see and do and the bike trails are superb. Rhea was ideal - close to the beach, shops, cycle trails but very quiet with a beautiful, secluded garden. Well equipped and furnished with lovely colour schemes and excellent bedding. Coffee machine was temperamental - would have preferred a cafetière but that's a very minor thing. Lucy looked after us well and was available if we needed her. We'll be back.

L'endroit est identique à la description. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La location est idéalement située à 300m de la plage, et 300m du centre du village. Elle est parfaitement entretenue.
