Loix- Ile de Ré- Maison pour 5 - Vacation Home

😊: This is a very nice little house, done up to a high standard, with a large garden and five minutes walk from the centre of the village. I paid 513 euros for four nights in the second week of June, which represented good value for this standard of accommodation. Three negatives, however: there’s an 800 euro security deposit required which was laborious to set up and rather unsettling; the main bathroom is at the bottom of the garden, which I discovered only on the day I left (it wasn’t obvious); and three days before I arrived, I was asked if I wanted bed linen and towels, which was an extra 24 euros. When I arrived, I had to make the bed myself. This, I’m told, is not unusual in France but most non French visitors are likely to find it irritating. Finally, the house is at the end of an L-shaped cul-de-sac, which makes it difficult to find. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that all the houses have two numbers. Both door locks are fiddly and I never really got used to them. If you can put up with the negatives, this is a very nice property and good value for money..
