Private 2-bedroom vacation home in Sainte-Marie-de-Rã©, France

We had a lovely stay here, shared the two gites with another family. Garden was ideal with the kids and the pool was great and ideal with the fence around it. We had a bbq one night too.The location is very quiet and a small cycle to local beach or bakery in St Marie and about 15-20 mins to other nearby villages like St Martins which made exploring easy for the soutern end of the island. We rented bikes from beach bikes on a nearby campsite which is a 700 m walk away.Hosts were very friendly and accomodating once we arrived. Kitchen was clean and pretty well equipped. The gite was warm in the evenings and mosquitos prevented us from having the windows open which is something to consider. Hope to return again.

This is a spacious and very peaceful home. The kitchen is well equipped and it was spotlessly clean. As mentioned in other reviews, the ceiling height upstairs suits it better to people that aren’t that tall and the upstairs of the property can become hotter. The property adjoins a second self-catering rental home with which you share the grounds and pool. Dominique was very friendly, helpful and accessible. It was great to have the barbecue set up for us when we asked. The fenced pool is brilliant and the garden is very large. There’s plenty of space to park on a separate gate-controlled driveway. We could cycle to the beach and a great bakery in less than 10 minutes. We wish we’d had 2 weeks and not one…!

Really happy, great location, helpful hosts on site. Lovely pool. Lovely gite, Very clean and modern. Would definitely return.

Enjoyed a wonderful 2 week stay here. The owners are very nice, kind and discreet. Our side of this holiday house was perfect for a family with children. Teenagers might find upstairs area too low though it is cosy. Living area is compact - kitchen with large table, two arm chairs and TV. Bathroom and bedroom are spacious. Everything nicely decorated, new and very clean. Well-equipped with nespresso, oven, microwave, dishwasher, large fridge, lots of crockery, cleaning equipment, basic supplies etc. The coffee pods were a nice touch. And the kids enjoyed the Netflix! Only downside was no washing machine and quite small terrace. Trimming the hedge could make more space. Shared garden is spacious and beautiful and we often had pool to ourselves. Owner was very accommodating in setting up the barbecue whenever we wanted. We didn’t find the proximity to the neighbouring villa an issue, as the terrace has high hedges. Bugs weren’t too bad but we did have to keep windows closed in the evenings. A couple of big spiders outside but nothing more than would expect in such a location. When it was hot, fans would have helped. Location is very peaceful as away from the main villages, though few amenities in walkable distance and many places too far by bike with kids. Les grenettes beach is close by bike and Les grand joncs is possible. The longer trips we did were great adventures though. Overall we had a very peaceful stay thanks to the lovely house, quiet location and nice owners.
