Pros:

I had a really lovely stay at Villa Authentique. The place feels cozy and authentic, with a clean, comfortable room and a nice garden to relax in. The staff were super friendly and made me feel welcome right away.

Great location too, easy to get around the island by bike and still quiet at night. Breakfast was fresh and tasty every morning.

I’d definitely stay here again!

Bien mais trop bruyant le matin
Pros:

L'emplacement est génial tout comme le service de location de vélo.
Personnel au petit soins

Cons:

La literie avec le matelas à ressort laisse à désirer.
L'insonorisation inexistante (bruit des disqueuses du chantier à côté, bruit des coqs à 5h, bruits des personnes dans le couloir ou voisines)

Pros:

Yann et son équipe sont très réactif, professionnel et à l’écoute. Des vrais solutions sont apportées pour aider les hôtes présents (chambres tampon en cas de départ retardé avec le ferry, navette jusqu’au port gratuite, service de vélos rapide et sérieux). Je recommande fortement surtout que sa localisation est également un point fort.

We had a fantastic 2-night stay at Villa Authentique. The location is excellent—there are very nice beaches nearby, plus
Pros:

We had a fantastic 2-night stay at Villa Authentique. The location is excellent—there are very nice beaches nearby, plus plenty of shops and great places to eat right around the corner. The best part was that they had bikes available to rent right at the property. We rented them and used them to explore the whole island, which was incredibly convenient. Highly recommend

Excellent séjour, accueil chaleureux et emplacement idéal
Pros:

Nous avons adoré notre séjour dans cet établissement.
Nous avions une chambre située dans l’une des maisons à l’entrée, avec un petit coin balcon très agréable.
La propreté est irréprochable et le personnel est absolument adorable, toujours souriant et attentionné.
L’hébergement est très bien situé, à proximité de tout et notamment du port. Gros point fort : une entreprise de location de vélos se trouve dans la même cour, ce qui est extrêmement pratique.

Cons:

Point d’amélioration possible : prévoir une lampe de chevet. Les lumières principales sont assez fortes, une lumière plus tamisée permettrait de lire tranquillement pendant que l’autre personne se repose.

Pros:

Uns hat die Gegend sowie die Anlage super gefallen. Sehr grüne Anlage.
Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber, das Bett war unfassbar bequem und die Klimaanlage hat auch super funktioniert.
Das Badezimmer war überraschend groß und die Handtücher haben sehr gut gerochen: finde, das ist immer ein wichtiges Sauberkeitsmerkmal :-)

Das Frühstück war super. Es gab eine Auswahl an Eiern (Spiegelei, Rührei oder Omelett), viel Obst sowie Toast und Marmelade. Uns wurde auch Nachschub angeboten, was aber nicht nötig war, weil wir gut satt geworden sind.
Die Lage war wirklich perfekt!! Man konnte zum Hafen laufen und alles Umliegende ist sehr nah.
Ein Supermarkt ist direkt um die Ecke (ca. 20 Meter).

Fahrräder kann man hier auch mieten, die Preise sind auf der ganzen Insel identisch.
Der Besitzer und das Personal waren unfassbar freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir wurden mit einem Willkommensdrink begrüßt, uns wurde jede Frage beantwortet und ein Waschservice für unsere Klamotten wurde ebenfalls angeboten.

Danke für den tollen Aufenthalt!

Cons:

Alles war perfekt.
