Collioure - You Won't Want to Leave

Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Hi Sheila---Thanks so much! As I noted in the guest book in the house, we only found one thing wrong, and that was the fact that we had to leave! Your place is incredible, superb, fantastic……words can’t describe how much we enjoyed every minute. We did have 2 rainy days, but on those days we explored the countryside including an ill-advised hike up to Peyrepertuse which we don't recommend on a rainy day! Your roof terrace is where we spent most of our time, and we loved it. The beds were cozy and everything was even better than described. We would love to come back again, and we adored Collioure.

First and foremost we loved the apartment. It just couldn’t have been better. It is always so much fun to be right in the center of town, participating in all the action. When they held the Good Friday march around town with the hoods and statues we first watched from above and then went down and joined in the experience. That is something you can’t do just anywhere. And as Kristi mentioned the roof deck was our favorite place to sip a glass of wine at the end of the day. But most importantly, thank you so much for providing us with the opportunity to live in Collioure for a week. It was just a dream come true!Many thanks for sharing your wonderful home with us.
Kristi & Dan ~ 4th - 11th April 2009
Owner's Response: This epitomizes a holiday in Collioure completely! It’s wonderful when guests love the experience of staying at the apartment and being right in the centre of Collioure. We are delighted that Kristi & Dan had such a good time particularly as the weather in April is more varied.

We can thoroughly recommend Prud'Homie!

Review Submitted: October 29, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed in Prud'Homie (myself, my Husband and 10 month old Daughter) with my Husbands parents, my Brother-in-law and his Girlfriend, for a week at the end of August. We all had a truly wonderful week and we have fallen in love with the area. We could not have been in a more central spot in Collioure for walking through town and exploring the area. The apartment was very accurately described and we felt right at home from the start - it is very well equipped and wonderfully decorated. The bedrooms are all a good double size, we had plenty of room in our bedroom with the cot up. There is a separate toilet and a good size family bathroom, again all well maintained and nicely decorated, and very clean!! The living space is open plan with two lovely balconies to people watch from. If you don't fancy walking for two or three minutes from the apartment to one of the many local restaurants (because of all the sunbathing on the beach you will no doubt be doing - just two minutes away from the apartment!) then you can just as easily cook a wonderful meal with ingredients bought from the local market, and watch the sun go down whilst sitting on the roof terrace! We are proof that you can take a baby to Collioure and have a wonderful time. The apartment does obviously have stairs but we did not find this a problem. There were plenty of other families holidaying in Collioure, but we think the beauty of the place is that it suits all ages. It has a good night life, whether that be having a quiet meal or going to the quietly hidden local wine bars. Eating out is not always cheap - some of the restuarants are more expensive than others but I would say that we generally had a good meal wherever we went, and it is worth treating yourself, as with anything you get what you pay for! There is plenty of good sightseeing to be had within Colliore and surrounding local areas, I would say that you do need a car, unless you are happy to stay within Collioure itself - and there is enough to do in Collioure for a week without having to go anywhere else! Many thanks to Sheila the owner for providing a friendly, informative and helpful customer service from start to finish. We would recommend this apartment as a great place to base yourself within central Collioure. We hope to visit again soon!!

Great stay in Collioure

Mette & Rune Oslo, Norway
Review Submitted: October 28, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My wife and I have rented the apartment twice. The first time with 3 teenagers accompanying us, the second time with another couple. We are around 50 y.o. The apartment is perfect: Large, airy bedrooms, very cozy kitchen/living-room area and perhaps Collioure´s best situated roof-terrace, with views to "everything" and still discrete. The apt is well equiped, with all necessary electric appliances. We are definitely Collioure-lovers; We have visited this spectacular small fishing village at least twice a year for the last 8 yrs. And if possible - we will rent this apartment on all our visits in the future! Best wishes from Mette & Rune, Norway

airy and light flat in the middle of Collioure

Sybille Marianne Goslar, Germany
Review Submitted: October 25, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
This is an excellent place to stay in Collioure, right in the middle, beautiful views, airy and light. You have to climb three flights of stairs, so make shure, the luggage isn't too voluminous and heavy! The flat is on top of the house very light and airy, it might be sticky in the mazzanine on summer, but living room and the two bedrooms are full of fresh air. The kitchen is fully equipped, bathroom and toilette(tiny) separated. As a typical mediteranean flat there is terazzo on the floor, fresh in summer, maybe cold in winter. The roof terasse is wonderful: beautyful views to mountains, sea and village. Still you can feel private! The flat is calm, you can sleep with open window. You are in the middle of Collioure, the beaches are just nearby, a little grocer at the corner, the bakery 50 meters away and still its calm and airy up in the flat. We would love to come back.

Lovely apartment in a lovely town

Jane Kevin & Joe Hastings, East Sussex
Review Submitted: August 14, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The apartment is very homely and comfortable with everything you might need and in a fantastic position so close to the beaches, restaurants and nightly entertainment.
The weather was very hot during our weeks stay and it was so nice to be able to just nip to the beach for a swim in the beautifully clear, clean sea.
We ate out every night and every meal was really good, the fresh fish is to die for and the sangria is well ........tasty!!!
All in all a great holiday and the whole process from first inquiry through to our arrival was made easy and stress free by Sheila.
And finally how nice to arrive at a clean property with flowers and wine waiting and the beds all made up!
Many thanks
Owner's Response: It’s nice when the little extra touches that we do for our guests are appreciated so much and we get such lovely feedback from them – thank you.

We had a fantastic vacation in your wonderful apartment! The weather was perfect, the sea was already warm in the first week of June, the wines and food excellent and the views from the roof terrace exceptional.

A wonderful stay in a super apartment

Aytch London
Review Submitted: July 23, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Hi Sheila, One week back from holiday and it seems like an age away... Just a quick note to say thank you for an absolutely wonderful stay in your apartment. It looked lovely on the website pics, but the reality was even better whan we got there! We were so excited when we opened the door, and even more so when we went up on to the terrace.

We had a superb stay - the weather was mixed at first with some monsoon-like downpours, but it cheered up after a few days. We had loads of lovely food, and the most energetic thing we attempted was taking the coastal path to Le Racou and back again. I certainly hope to be able to visit the apartment again at some point in the future - it is a wonderful place!

Many thanks, Hannah & Miles, London
Owner's Response: How lovely when we seem to get it right for guests. We are pleased that these guests found the apartment seemed better in reality than shows in our photo's! Collioure's great for relaxing with the option of travelling around the area if you want.

Collioure Comfort & Cosiness!

Ingrid&Gary Rochdale
Review Submitted: October 4, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We stayed in this apartment during the first week of our Honeymoon in September 2008. Not to put too fine a point on it, it's fantastic. It feels like being at home, it's full of everything you need, the standard of decor and furnishing is brilliant, you can do you laundry, there's no washing up because there's a dishwasher, the roof terrace is outstanding for it's spaciousness and view, the beds are lovely and comfortable, really good bathroom facilities, top quality kitchen, 2 balconies from the living room / kitchen area from which you can view a trendy square and also view the town beach next to the clock tower. It's situated in the most perfect location - right in the centre of the village. I would sell my new husband to own this property :-) Collioure itself is captivating - an unspoilt gem.
