Quiet Villa with SPA, Pool, Gardens, WiFi, AirCo, beach at 600m

We had a fantastic holiday in the house it was just what we needed. Snug and comfortable the owner was increasable helpful throughout our stay If I was in Gruissan again I would.love to stay here again.

Villa Cosita is a compact hide-away, with total privacy and all amenities to make a week-long stay totally relaxing and most memorable. Nothing was more decadent than taking a dip in the totally private hot tub, after a day of exploring the sights in the area. (It was already too late in the season to take advantage of the mini-pool. The water was too cold. But not so for grilling on the deck and eating al fresco.) Ursula gave us a good base from which we could start our stay worry free. She coordinated with us our arrival and gave us a comprehensive and detailed orientation to the property once we got there. The few times that we had to contact her during our stay, she responded promptly and most accommodatingly. For two people, I can't think of anything that could make one's stay more delightful and low key at the same time.

This was a smaller home than we would normally rent, however the accommodation was in the area we wanted. From the start the communication from Ursula (and Julien, when we arrived) was excellent and extremely reassuring. Our initial impression was disappointment with the size, however once we'd settled in it was a lovely place to spend the week. The layout and décor has been carefully designed to maximise the use of space both indoors and out. There is even a small mezzanine floor with a desk and sitting area.There were plenty of clever storage options so everything could be unpacked and put away. The large fridge-freezer was a bonus and although there wasn't a grill, the induction hob and microwave/convection oven were more than adequate for our requirements. The Wi-Fi signal was fast and reliable and when the TV channels were limited we accessed many programmes via YouTube on the flat screen TV. Most of our time we spent outside, sitting at the table to read or relaxing in the jacuzzi, which was great. The front garden, though small, is completely private and location around the accommodation was very quiet. However the lively marina, restaurants, tourist information etc. are only a 10 minute walk away and the beach and old town less than 15 minutes. The old town holds a market twice a week. There are plenty of cycle trials around Gruissan and places to walk. In all, we had a great week and the accommodation really became our home, while we were there. Thank you Ursula & Julien for making it so.

Ursula was friendly and approachable. Apartment was in an ideal location. A quiet residential area within walking distance of the beach, restaurants and the (excellent) local market in Gruissan. Say " Salut from L'Ecosse" to the market seller who sells olive tapenade . Walking down to the patisserie to collect breakfast was most enjoyable. Apartment had all the kitchen facilities need for a summer break. The coffee machine is a Tassimo (for those who need to know) It was nice to cool down in the hot tub after a warm day. Overall - EXCELLENT.
