Pet Friendly Résidence le Clos Vauban

Jacky was an excellent host and very helpful. The apartment is simple in its layout and furnishing ( not a criticism as it is very characteristic of apartments in the Clos Vauban area). The apartment is well equipped which was also very helpful. The apartment is also very well situated as a base for exploring St Martin de Re and other parts of Il de Re

The apartment is very nerby the harbor with it's restaurants an shops. The appartment was very clean and the place is enough space for 4 persons. The host was very friendly. Everything was pefect.

Lovely property in fantastic location… everything you needed was in the apartment. So lovely and quiet… and amazingly comfortable beds - we all slept like babies every night! Thank you :)

Perfect perfect perfect. A magnificent two bedroom apartment with a spectacular private walled garden in the fortified city. The apartment is a gem and the location is unbelievable, steps to the port, to the charming old city, great restaurants and charming shops.

Loved the property and its closeness to the centre of Saint Martin. Nice little chill out area at the back. Just right for the 2 of us and our dog. One problem however was that we ran out of Bandwidth on the WiFi so lost out on Netflix and some of the internet for a few days. Apart from that we were very happy with the accommodation.

The property was as described and as commented upon by other customers. Could not find fault. A shower enclosure would have been better but the hand held shower was fine ; especially with a helper. The restaurants in Saint Martin were very expensive and of poor quality . We went to Ars and Les Pontes and had very good meals at half the price of Saint Martin and La Flotte and much , much higher quality. Bikes and bike routes were excellent and well sign posted.. A very good holiday. Jacky and Arlette were welcoming and available. A memorable holiday.

We are just back from a fabulous stay in this apartment. It was our first time abroad with our 20 month old so we were a little anxious that the set up would work for him. It turns out we chose the perfect apartment in the perfect location. Jacky sent an email to us offering to collect us and bring us to the airport as well as provide extra linen, towels etc for 60 euro. We availed of this because the idea of organising taxi with all our luggage, pram and baby was stressing me out. He collected us from the airport. He was lovely, very warm and friendly. This extra offer was worth every penny. When we arrived at the apartment it was spotless. The decor is really lovely and makes the apartment very homely . They provide plenty of everything from pots and pans and cups and plates. There is a dishwasher, washing machine, hob and microwave as well as a coffee machine. It was the little things that are not always provided that really helped like shopping bags, pegs, detergent and more that made our arrival easier. He even provided a bucket and spade for the baby. Everything was working really well. There is plenty of space too and lots of storage. The windows have shutters which were great for blackout for baby and the travel cot was great with extra linen provided. The shutter also kept the apartment cool because the weather was very hot. In the back garden there was a big awning that kept us in the shade at meal times. The location is amazing too. The bike shop is at the end of the street ( 1 min away) so we hired bikes for the two weeks from there. We cycled to a different beach every day. Saint Martin is literally 2 mins walk away. There is a market in the mornings so we would get nice food there. The supermarket is a 10 min cycle away although there is a small one in Saint Martin. Plenty of lovely restaurants too. Every evening we got ice cream and sat watching the activity in the port. There is a park just across the road with a small playground and amusements. The tourist office is right beside that and a courtesy bus that brings you to other parts and the bus leaves from there every hour or so. It will bring you to the main bus stop Cognac Jay which has a bus going to the north side of the island or to Rochelle. We did a trip on bus to the other end of the island one day and a trip to the aquarium in La Rochelle on another day. €2.50 to LaRochelle and 1 euro to the north island. This really was the perfect holiday for us . Thanks to Jacky

We had a lovely early June holiday. The apartment has 2 double bedrooms which are smartly and tastefully decorated in a seaside theme. The lounge kitchen is a good size but compact if you need to dine inside. The courtyard garden was great for lunch and early, evening dinners. The galley kitchen worked fine but you needed to plan well to make the best of it. For our family of 2 adults and one young teenager it was perfect. Centrally, located in St Martin and everything was easily accessed by bicycle. Supermarkets are 10-12 minutes away by bike and you can walk to the restaurants in 5 minutes. St Martin is a beautiful sailing port and the "centre" of the island. Other great villages such as La Flotte and La Courade are just 15 and 20 minutes away respectively by bike. The two boys managed to cycle to Les Portes in 65 minutes to glimpse the other end of the island. Lots of fun for the active family. The surfing beach of Plage de Gros Jonc was a steady 25 minute cycle. Jacky the owner helped us immensely with our late arrival into La Rochelle airport. Despite the late time of our arrival he facilitated the letting fantastically. What a fantastic host.
