Arlette welcomed us warmly and showed us the lovely spacious apartment. The apartment was quiet, well equipped and perfect for a week to explore the Ile de Rè. We very much enjoyed the area, so close to the town and the beach whilst being quiet.

Rustig gelegen woning voor 2 personen. Goed uitgerust indien je zelf wil koken. Op 2 min. van het strand en de markt. Sympathieke gastvrouw.

Séjour top dans cadre zen !

The property was clean and in a good area. It was however very stressful trying to locate it as we were not given the house number. We spent over an hour walking up and down the street until luckily a passer by who happened to know Arlette put 2 and 2 together and took us there. We liked the apartment and the location. We loved our holiday on this beautiful island but the shine was taken off some what when on our return the property manager falsely accused us of not cleaning the apartment. On last evening we were told that we were expected to clean the property. We cut our evening short and rushed back in order to do so. We vacumed the entire apartment. In the morning we scrubbed the bathroom sink and shower, cleaned the toilet , emptied All the bins, stripped the bed and thoroughly cleaned the kitchen to include the oven, worktops, sink and fridge. All the utensils were washed up and put away. We did however accidently leave an unopened packet of cheese and half a bottle of orange juice in the fridge. The tiles throughout the apartment are white and show every speck of dust.. we must have swept the floor at least 3 times before leaving the apartment because short of crawling on our hands and knees and exiting the property backwards it was impossible to remove every speck whilst packing and preparing to leave. We have stayed in numerous properties prior to this and always leave the place as clean and tidy as we possibly can. In our experience proffesional cleaners always come in prior to the arrival of new guests to deep clean the apartment. If you stay in this property you will be expected to do this yourself and will lose some of your deposit if the manager has to spend any time preparing the property for the new arrivals . We were charged €40.00 despite spending the majority of our last evening hoovering and cleaning the apartment. It is rather alarming to think that this is left solely to guests and that the kitchen worktops and fridge are not properly disinfected by the property manager. If guests were unaware of hygeine issues pertaining to cross contamination and just wiped the fridge and worktops with a bacteria laden dish cloth this would go undetected, as the property manager takes no responsibilty in ensuring the area where food preparation takes place is hygenically cleansed. Also be prepared to pay extra if you want bed sheets and pillow cases on your bed and don't expect to be provided with towels. Very disapointed .
