Côte d’Azur : Charmante maison de vacances à Le Rayol avec vue imprenable

First of all, this place has an amazing view. As far as the living accommodations, they were pretty good. Comfortable beds, air-conditioning, a functional kitchen. Good location. This wasn't my favorite vacation rental because it wasn't stocked and for the price that we paid, we would've appreciated at least some garbage bags, dishwashing pods, or some hand soap. It was annoying to have to go shopping for basic supplies, for the price charged. There were some almost empty bottles of shampoo that we assume other travelers left. They did have a bottle of rosé in the refrigerator, which was nice, but I would've definitely preferred the basic amenities that I mentioned. I also appreciate a Nespresso machine when I go to vacation rental; this unit does not have one. While the kitchen did have a fair amount of tools, there was no bread knife for example, which was annoying. As far as decor, it was not very cohesive or provencal and felt random. There's a big boat stored in the parking area, which makes exiting challenging, and a bin of dirty laundry in the laundry room. For the price I was expecting something a little nicer and more thoughtful touches.

We had a wonderful stay at the house in Rayol. The house itself is very comfortable, with air conditioning in the bedrooms, a brand new kitchen, and a spectacular view. The walk to the beach is not too long, and the beach itself is very pleasant—not too crowded, with a good restaurant as well.The surroundings of the house are lovely. You will find all kinds of nice little shops, such as a bakery, butcher, and more. For those who enjoy sports, there is plenty to do: swimming, hiking, and cycling in the mountains. You can also rent sailing boats nearby.Last but not least, Daniel, the host, made us feel very welcome. We will definitely come back!
