Children loved the pool
Our French and the Villa Manager’s English was poor so welcome was not easy. However, the owner dealt promptly with the initial issues raised and even arranged for a plumber to come next morning who was excellent and sorted out a problem with one of the showers.
Guests need to be aware that only one bath towel is provided per person and no hand towels or pool towels are provided.
Only four chairs around a table in the living area but plenty of outside chairs and sun beds by the pool.
Great location, 5 minutes drive to Racue beach, Port and one euro bus from Eric Cantona stadium (near Port) takes you to Collioure (well recommended).
Plenty of markets around including a night market around the port.
Children loved the pool and we all had a great holiday.

Spring in the south
We found this villa in Argeles very comfortable and convenient. It was perfectly clean and described accurately on the website. Arrival was straightforward and we had been given all the information we needed. Soon after we arrived in fact, someone called to the door to make sure that everything was okay for us. The owner was easy to contact at all times before and during our stay. It is a convenient spot for exploring the whole area and we visited the local market in Collioure and also the fishing villages of Port Vendres and Cerbere. We didn’t have children in our party but I can imagine how they would have enjoyed the pool at the villa, and the long sandy beach close by.

The sleeping arrangement in the property was odd and downstsirs looked grubby and was not comfortabl
Generally the property was ok - good location for local shops and major roads. Nice swimming pool and outdoor seating area. None of us liked the downstairs part of the house, which is essentially a garage/storage area with 2 bedrooms. In one bedroom there was a washing machine and in the other an entry door. The downstairs bathroom was smelly and generally the whole area looked grubby. I didnt enjoy sleeping down there and it was extemely hot at night.

Superb Villa with fabulous pool
Lovely villa with everything you need.Great space inside .The pool and garden area were fantastic.The boys were in the pool two or three times a day and with the hot weather it was the perfect way to cool off.I loved swimming at night with the pool and garden lights,magical.Easy walk to old town for bars ,restaurants,small but very well stocked supermarket and bakers for fresh bread (and cakes!!)Lovely tourist train brings you to the new town and beach if you want a more livelier atmosphere.Villa in a very safe ,peaceful area.We didn't do any day trips as we had been to Disneyland the week before but plenty of places locally to discover if you wanted.We had a great holiday and highly recommend this villa.

great villa, very spacious, everything you need
Lovely villa in a great location. The housekeeper was very helpful. Lovely outside area with good pool. Easy access to Argeles Ville and Port and a 5 minute drive to the plage. All we needed was in the villa and we were very grateful for the air conditioning as it was over 30 degrees for 12 days. Would definitely book again
