Laroque des Alberes Villa with large Private Pool, Languedoc, Pyrenees-Orientales - Great location with Views Reviews

Lovely area
We loved our stay at this great flat the area is great 20 min to beach at Argelès-sur-Mer and 30 minutes to Collioure which is really beautiful coastal town.The walk into Laroque-des-Albères is a short 10 minutes with several bars and restaurants to choose from, we loved it there and ate there on several occasionsThe apartment has everything you could need for a stay only downside was there is only air con in the lounge area which does not cool the bedroom so sleeping in the heat wave was difficult.The pool areas is beautiful and gets the sun from morning until late in the evening, but the mosquitoes were a real nuisance could not eat down there as they were buzzing around during the night and day, this could again be due to the hot weather.Overall we had a wonderful time.Kim and Graham

Not what we expected
Unfortunately the condition of the kitchen left us feeling very disappointed with our stay overall. We were not advised until after we had paid that the kitchen was being replaced at the end of our stay and nothing was communicated to us as to the actual (filthy) state of it. We spent our first day cleaning it and sadly we have still not received any response from our host 8 weeks later after contacting him about it. I have marked each category as 2 star in order to give the overall rating a 2 but the location was excellent, the check-in process was straightforward and other communications were prompt. It was very expensive for what we experienced; the main bathroom has not been finished properly, the tiles were dirty, the bedroom carpet needs cleaning, we had to buy a saucepan big enough to cook pasta, smashed freezer drawers, chipped crockery etc. etc. We would stay in this area again, just not here.

Lovely stay
Villa with everything you need, outside space is particularly fantastic with lovely views and a great pool. Location is great with a very short walk to the village with its numerous quality eateries, highly recommended!

A little paradise!
Beautiful, peaceful rental with a superb view of the Albères mountains, which we love so much! The hiking trails are practically at the doorstep. The pool and wooded grounds are very pleasant! We also appreciated the two bathrooms, one newly built this year and the other renovated. The village of Laroque des Albères is very lively, with lovely restaurants. Finally, a special mention for the kindness of the owners, who were helpful and attentive from the moment we booked on the website until the end of our stay in Laroque! Carolyn and Martin, it was a pleasure to share a coffee with you, thank you again for the pastries, and see you very soon! We will be back!! :) Nadine and Alain.

Stay in Laroque
Martin was very helpful and easy to deal with. The property is in a very convenient location 10 mins walk to the village (15 for oldies like us) The garden is very well maintained. The biggest drawback for us was that the sun canopy was awaiting replacement so to eat outdoors everything had be taken downstairs.( It was very hot during our visit) , hence 4stars instead of 5 we would have given it

Great stay!
We had a great time in this house in the lovely village Laroque des Albères. Particularly the pool-area was very nice where you could find shadow under the beautiful trees and swim in 28-30 degrees water. Be observant of mosquitoes though that bite you even during daytime.

Great place to stay!
Really enjoyed our stay here - very quiet, very clean, well equipped and within 15min walking distance of restaurants, bakery and small grocery store. Good place to start hikes in the nearby mountains too, no need to drive first. Great pool area, beautiful view from balcony, lots of privacy - neighbors not too close. On premises parking available, larger cars can be parked curbside w/I problems. The owners Martin and Carolyn made sure we had all the information we needed and provided lots of useful recommendations about restaurants etc. Communication via email and WhatsApp was prompt and smooth. Thanks Martin and Carolyn! Definitely planning to come again.
