Delightful family friendly villa with new private & heated pool

We (two families of four) stayed at Villa Alais in early August and had a wonderful time. The photos don't do the place justice, as the pool and back seating/BBQ area seemed further away from the house than they are - it's actually all really close/together and sociable! We had a lovely time, thank you!

Lovely spacious villa in a quiet, pretty village in the south of France. Spacious kitchen and indoor and outdoor dining areas made family meals a pleasure. Private salt water pool was lovely and made for a really relaxing holiday. Local town of St Chinian is charming and the surrounding scenery is outstanding. Host was really helpful. Thoroughly recommend the villa for a comfortable, relaxing stay in a gorgeous part of France.

Huge property. Loved the space, the big kitchen, the sunny pool, and the fact there are lots of eating areas so you can chase the sun or shade. Walked into the village for croissants, pizzas and did the wonderfully picturesque walk over to St. Chinian a couple of times for the market or just for breakfast. The bakery there is great! Visited Beziers and Montpellier and did beach sports at Valras. Also enjoyed doing a tour at Noilly Prat in Marseillan and the water jousting at Sete. It was also a great base for visiting the river Orb valley with its picturesque old villages and watersports. .

Avons apprécié l'espace intérieur avec une belle cuisine et l'espace extérieur avec plusieurs terrasses et la piscine, piscine qui nous a permis de résister à la chaleur. Un store ou un grand parasol sur une terrasse aurait été un plus. Endroit idéal pour partager de bons moments entre plusieurs générations

Beautiful and spacious house with an enjoyable various terrace. A modern and a great place to relax. An ideal base which is easy to reach. We had a good time. However, we have the feeling that the house is not well maintained. The heating of the pool was broken and could not be repaired. There was a broken pool filter (a danger for kids), and the BBQ was still very dirty from the previous guests. I must add that all problems were solved by the management office asap. thumbs up for this. Overall recommendable.

Large family villa with excellent outdoor spaces on the edge of a quiet village. There are wonderful terraces with table and chairs for outdoor eating, with a gas and charcoal BBQs. The stunning pool had plenty of lounge seating with a smart fence and lockable gates for child safety. The bedrooms were spacious with comfortable beds. The kitchen had plenty of equipment to self cater for a large family. Very useful baby/child equipment including a baby bath, toys, cot and a high chair. There were bikes and games equipment available which we did not use on this visit. Pleasant walk (40mins) or drive to St Chinian which has market days, cafes, shops and supermarkets. Bakery 5min walk into village for fresh bread for breakfast. Lots of interesting places to visit and the coast is not far away. We all enjoyed our stay in Villa Alais and would love to return for a longer stay. The owners have been very helpful before and during our stay answering any of our queries. We thoroughly recommend this villa.

If you love wine, great food and exploring ..it's hard to beat! The weather was ideal, great for sunbathing and swimming in the pool but not too hot (we had a baby with us). The house is ideal for families, and has all sorts of toys and equipment for children, which they adored. I particularly liked chatting with the locals(especially whilst wine tasting), visiting the markets and sightseeing in Bezier. A delightful holiday, enjoyed by all.

Well equiped villa in a peaceful setting surrounded by vineyards, kids had excellent fun in the pool, access to walks right outside the door. The property was well maintained and we had good advice about the local area from both the owners and the local contact. Delightful day spent in Beziers, Grottos and local markets all within a short drive.
