Peaceful Provençal Paradise
A delightful and well appointed two bedroom apartment unobtrusively adjacent to the owners property. Two patio/terraces at your disposal to chase the sun or find the shade; with a pool to cool off. Bernard was a charming and helpful host, with tips and recommendations for local and nearby attractions and places to visit.

A visit to Pagnol Country
Our visit to Le Gîte La Safranade was an absolute delight. Bernard and his partner, Christine were generous hosts whose advice about the area served to augment our enjoyment of summer en Provence. We hope to return to La Safarande!

Magnifique séjour au paradis des oliviers!
Mon mari, ma fille et moi avons adoré notre séjour chez Bernard! Le gîte est muni de tout ce dont nous avions besoin, et il est décoré avec goût. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine, située sur une terrasse avec une vue spectaculaire sur le Garlaban et sur des champs d'oliviers. L'emplacement du gîte est idéal pour ceux souhaitant visiter Cassis, Marseille, La Ciotat, Aix, Bandol...toutes des destinations qui sont à 20-30 mins maximum. Quel plaisir de faire tous ces "day trips" pendant notre séjour et de revenir en fin de journée dans cet endroit calme, magnifique, paisible....merci Bernard pour toutes vos recommandations. Nous reviendrons sans hésitation.

Lovely house, close to all the sights!
My husband and I had a fantastic holiday at La Safranade with my sister and her family. Bernard and Gilda were wonderful hosts, very hospitable and gave us great advice and local recommendations. The house itself was very well equipped, tastefully decorated, and impeccably clean, as well as had a lovely terrace overlooking the Garlaban (we dined and breakfasted al fresco almost every day!). The swimming pool was great for the children - the cover acted like a greenhouse and kept the water nice and warm. All the sights are within a half hour drive (Marseille, Cassis, La Ciotat, the Calanques), so it was great to see the tourist sights and retreat back to the countryside for some peace and quiet. La Safranade was just perfect for our visit to Provence - we had a family holiday there we will never forget. Merci beaucoup, Bernard et Gilda!

Très beau gite, bien soigné, bien aménagé. Fond de cuisine exceptionnel, toutes les installations fonctionnelles. Très jolies terrasses. Propreté impeccable. Et par dessus tout l’accueil remarquable et la disponibilité de Bernard qui s’est avéré un guide touristique avisé et des plus précieux. Bref nous avons été traités avec beaucoup de soins et d’attention. Toute notre reconnaissance à Bernard. Jacqueline et Michel du Québec

Séjour compliqué
Emplacement de la maison agréable dans un secteur très calme. Notre séjour a été marqué malheureusement par des morsures/piqures d'acariens ou d'insectes très rapidement pour toute la famille. Même si l'hôte a été réactif ( intervention d'une entreprise spécialisé le lendemain du signalement) et dans un premier temps à l'écoute, le mâl était fait… Piqûres sur les jambes et le dos et cette envie constante de se gratter tout au long du séjour. Des excuses timides/gênés de l'hôte et beaucoup d'incompréhension de sa part. Aucun remboursement/compensation proposé, pas même le remboursement d'un bombe antiacariens acheté dans un premier temps par nos soins, nous avons eu le droit à une consultation d'un proche de l'hôte professionnel de santé et de passage dans la région 3 jours avant notre départ qui a constaté des piqures/morsures sans identifier exactement ce que c'était. La seule chose identifié et évidente était que plus de 150 morsures/piqûres présentent sur le corps n'étaient pas celles de moustiques. Bien évidemment, nous ne procèderons plus à une réservation dans ce lieu et ne recommandons pas. L'hôte est responsable du lieu qu'il met en location. Au prix de la réservation, ce genre de problème ne doit pas exister et nos corps restent encore marqués et un préjudice réel est présent ( photos/certificats médicaux à l'appui).
