Historic fully renovated 16th century home in the hearth of a Medieval city

We had a wonderful stay in this spacious apartment in the old medieval village in Vaison la Romaine. The unit includes four levels, so if you’re up to going up and down stairs a lot this place is not for you. Otherwise, we loved it. The rooftop patio has marvelous views of the town and surrounding countryside, all the way to Mt Ventoux. The main bedroom was very comfortable and the bathroom fully equipped and spacious. The living room and kitchen are on the first floor, one level up from the entrance. The kitchen is small but very functional and well equipped for meal preparation. We rented e-bikes while we were staying the (highly recommended!)and were able to store them comfortably in the sitting room on the street level.The host was very responsive when we had questions, and their local manager, Marie Christine, was very helpful in getting us set up with internet,etc.We would give this place our highest recommendation, so long as you don’t mind stairs, and being a bit of a walk from the main part of town.

We spent 10 glorious days at Casa Vasio & hated to leave! This is a gorgeous home w/4 levels of space to enjoy. Beautifully decorated with provencal furnishing & art, it was a real joy to relax on comfortable sofas & chairs, sleep on a perfect mattress w/fine linen & blankets, & have plenty of hot water & thick, fluffy towels for long showers. We enjoy cooking & I must say this kitchen is incredibly well-stocked with all you need including the best chef's knives! After hiking during the day, we enjoyed evenings with wine on the roof deck before dinner. Beyond the conveniences of laundry, etc, there are so many small touches in this home that are not reflected in photos or this review---it really goes beyond perfect. Owner Gil was responsive immediately to our booking & we took his advice to not miss the Tuesday market in Vaison (outstanding!), plus there's plenty of books & info on things to do in area to be found the house, including a photo book essay on the house itself! And, we are eternally grateful for meeting Marie J, who will orient you to the house, as she is an exceptional lover of the arts & all things Provence, a lovely human being and fun person who lives nearby & goes way beyond simply helping one to settle in. Merci to Gil and to Marie! We hope to return to Vaison & Casa Vasio again soon!

Wir hätten es nicht besser treffen können. Liebevoll restauriertes Haus. Alles vorhanden für das tägliche Leben. Wir können es nur empfehlen.

We stayed here again during August and early September, and couldn't recommend the property more highly. Pictures don't even do it justice: the home is incredibly bright and well lit, even on the occasional cloudy day. The owner is super helpful and responsive. The fountain outside your bedroom window lulls you to sleep each night, and the morning sun wakes you up. Five stars for sure.

We have stayed here before, and everything was perfect as always. One big improvement is that the house now has fiber internet, and speeds are really fast. If you need to do any work, 200 Mbps speeds (just tested now) is more than enough! I should also mention how beautiful the house is from the outside as well as inside. We went to look as some postcards yesterday, and it is kind of cool to see the house you live in be one one of the cards!

Ein sehr schönes Haus in schöner Umgebung. Wir sind rundum zufrieden und freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Aufenthalt.

We've stayed in this property several times before, but only in the summer. Not only is Provence great in late October, but the property was perfect too! Some places we've rented before are not well heated, and we are always cold. This property has many electric heaters, and every room was exactly as warm as we wanted it. Also, the many large windows on the square face east, so it is wonderfully bright in the mornings, which is very nice during the shorter days. Even on rainy days, the house was comfortable and bright, and we enjoyed staying in and reading! Although it was too cold to eat on the rooftop patio, the main room dining area was perfect for dinners in as well: we ate at home seven of our eight nights! We'll almost certainly try another shoulder season stay here again!

This is a stunning house done over beautifully to include all modern conveniences. It faces a charming old square centered on a huge tree and a trickling stone fountain. The handsome stone stairs were a challenge for us, no longer young, but worth it. Be aware that parking is not easy and food shopping requires a car. This area is primarily residential. But if you want an authentic experience of life long ago, this is it.

This is the fourth time we have rented this property. We love it that much, and everything about it is perfect. Check out our other reviews if you want details, but the above says it all.
