Just perfect
Review Submitted: September 20, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
Another year, another great holiday in Les Sables and another ultra relaxing time in a great apartment.
The view is so good that you just want to sit on the balcony and watch the world go by. A good book, a glass of wine ... what else could you ask, this is what holidays are for.
The weather was superb and the town seemed to be busier than ever. We ate out less than in previous years (strong euro, weak pound this year!) but this did not diminish our enjoyment.
We have already booked for next year and strongly recommend you try the life on this part of the West coast of France.
The apartments (we have stayed in both) are ideally placed. The stroll into town is not taxing and the places to visit are an easy car journey away ... traffic is generally OK at this time of year.
The journy from Caen or Cherbourg is only about 280 miles and the roads/motorway network are very good.
All who visit are most complimentary, and it's not difficult to understand why.

Owner's Response: Once again we are more than delighted that the magic of Les Sables d'Olonne is rubbing off on this year's visitors in particular . We too wish to draw attention to how vibrant this busy West Coast of France seaside town really is , with not only much to interest all , but significant plans either already in hand or under consideration that are and will make Les Sables even more special . The nesessary works are being carefully planned so as not to disrupt the main holiday periods .
Communications to and from Les Sables by both road and now rail - TGV from Paris no less - are exceptional .
Additionally , greater emphasis is being given to enhanced facilities for both pedestrians and cyclists which is very forward looking .
We remain as enthusiastic as ever about Les Sables ; we have been regular visitors there ourselves for some 30 years . What more can we say .

Caraibes is a spacious, clean, well equipped apartment in an excellent location with large swimming pool and great views. We have stayed there twice now and have already booked for next year. Underground secure parking is a bonus! The sea is minutes away and shops and restaurants are within walking distance. The perfect place to relax. We love it!

Arrived home after having had the most perfect holiday yet! Apartment was 100% perfect, very clean and comfortable, totally secure with underground garage, wished we had taken the bikes! The area is 100% perfect for whatever your interests, perfect for families, our children loved it, especially the beach, just 5 minutes drive away.
Very reluctant to write this review as we would like to keep this perfect place a secret.
Re-booked for next year.
Perfect, what more can i say apart from thank you Roger & Nancy for you help and for sharing.

Fantastic Les Sables
Review Submitted: September 25, 2008
Date of Stay: August 2008
This was our second holiday in Les Sables (we were in Corail last year and Caraibes this year) and we had another fabulous time.
The apartment is very comfortable and has fabulous views. Sitting on the balcony and watching the world go by with a glass of wine in your hand is hard to beat!. The sun blinds are a welcome addition, giving relief from the sun once it moves round the sky just after midday.
The apartment is very well equipped and is a superb base for a holiday in what we have come to regard as one of the most beautiful areas of France (we can't wait to return next year and have booked already!).
The seafood is fantastic and there are so many first class restaurants to choose from both in La Chaume and across the water (by water taxi) in Les Sables.
There are great beaches and many places of interest worth visiting (there are pamphlets in the drawer telling you what is on offer).... explore the area by getting off the beaten track and discovering the flour mills and gardens of the Vendee.
The information pack tells you all you need to know and the local agent is extremely helpful.
We have been to various parts of France but think that Les Sables is a fantastic place to relax.
We just love it ... you will too.

First but not last visit to the Vendee region
Review Submitted: July 23, 2008
Date of Stay: July 2008
We recently returned from a wonderful holiday in Les Sables d'Olonne, Vendee - the first time we have visited this area of France. The apartment was excellent, spotlessly clean, with good furnishings and the double balcony overlooking the pool and sea really made our holiday. We were blessed with excellent weather - unbroken sunshine all week so the balcony and sun blinds were a welcome bonus! There are some excellent restaurants in the area and the water taxi from La Chaume to Les Sables adds to the holiday experience. The beaches are wonderful, the shops varied and open most of the day and there was evening entertainment in the streets and local squares. The owner was extremely helpful in providing information before the holiday and in the Information Pack sent to us before departure. We will certainly return to this area again and we would definitely recommend this apartment.
