Un petit coin de paradis.
Il s'agit de notre quatrième séjour au Paradou. Séjour tout aussi merveilleux que les précédents. Cette villa est devenue notre paradis, outre l'accueil sans pareil de Philippe et Véronique, c'est le lieu idéal pour se ressourcer et recharger les batteries. La villa et ses ondes bienfaitrices invitent à la sérénité. Le confort y est total, avec la piscine ombragée et la chambre climatisée. Outre cela, le village d'Allauch offre des ballades délicieuses dans un décor on ne peut plus charmant. Nous ne pouvons plus nous passer de ces parenthèses enchantées.

Un coin de Paradis en Provence
La location est parfaite, extrêmement propre, bien entretenue avec les facilitées de haut standard ( lit et oreillers ergonomiques, wifi, piscine avec remous pour la nage, stationnement privé etc...) Un acceuil irréprochable de Phillippe et Véro, attentionnés mais discret avec de bons conseils. La location offre des vues merveilleuses de Marseilles et de ses couchers de soleil de la terrasse. Allauch est un petit Village en montagne, très accueillant avec tout à quelques pas de marches de la location ( 7 restaurants, dépanneurs, 3 traiteurs, 3 boulangeries, pharmacie et plus). Le Village est calme en soirée mais il est situés stratégiquement face aux axes routiers , pour visiter la Provence dont en autres La Sciota, Cassis, Marseilles, Aix, Les baux et plus). Simplement ¨La Totale¨ pour un séjour Parfait en Provence. Robert (Québec)

eine Woche im "Paradies"
Wir verbrachten eine (leider) abgekürzte Woche im kleinen Paradies von Phillippe über den Dächern von Allauch und Marseille. Ein wirklich besonderer Ort voller Magie - wie uns Philippe kurz vor unserer Abreise durch kleine Anekdoten über das Haus bestätigen konnte. Phillippe empfing uns voller Herzlichkeit und führte uns durch das wunderschöne Haus. Angefangen vom Pool mit Gegenstromanlage auf der schönen Terrasse mit Sitz- und Liegeecke und voller mediterraner Bepflanzung nebst kleinem Koiteich, über eine moderne, voll ausgestattete Küche und großem Wohnzimmer mit Panoramafenstern ging die Führung weiter ins Obergeschoß mit Massageliege, modernem Bad und gemütlichem Schlafzimmer (sehr gutes Bett) mit Blick über Marseille und einer weiteren Terrasse mit Sonnenliege und Hängematte. Wir waren überwältigt von der Atmosphäre, dem wunderbaren Ausblick und der Ausstattung der Wohnung. Alle Elektrogeräte (Herd, Backofen, Fernseher, Hifianlage, Internetzugang,..von gehobener Qualität sowie die gesamte Ausstattung voller Esthetik. Dieser erste Eindruck sollte sich auch während des gesamten Aufenthaltes nicht ändern. Man merkte der Wohnung wirklich an, dass sie vom Vermieter selbst teilzeitlich bewohnt und mit viel Liebe und Können gestaltet wurde. Philippe selbst war für jegliche Fragen und Wünsche immer sofort erreichbar. In dem kleinen, alten Dorfkern von Allauch kann man zu Fuß seine Einkäufe (Bäcker, Metzger, Bioladen, Gemüsehändler, Supermarkt,...) erledigen, die Windmühlen, eine sehr schöne Kirche oder direkt oberhalb des Hauses die alte Burgruine nebst Kirche und der vergoldeten Notre Dame spazierend erkunden. Wunderschöner 360° Blick von dort aus über das bergige Hinterland (auf den Spuren von M. Pagnol) und Küste - traumhaft! Einen großen Dank noch einmal an Philippe - bisher waren wir noch nie ein zweites Mal in einem Ferienhaus - kommen aber bestimmt hierhin zurück!

Simply the best
This is a unique and outstanding property but our stay was made extra special by the attention and entertainment provided by Philippe. As a life long fan of the Rolling Stones, this review is dedicated to him... We arrived somewhat "shattered" after going "around and around" nervously in the "brand new car" the hire company had given us and having just narrowly missed the "black limousine" that was "driving too fast" on such narrow roads – "terrifying!" A little "the worst" for wear, "torn and frayed" we were therefore very "happy" to be greeted so warmly by Philippe at the entrance to his wonderful house. Although we had "no expectations", it became clear as he showed us around that this was a little piece of "heaven" in the very "respectable" hills above Marseille. Philippe took us and our luggage upstairs to the large "luxury" bedroom where we would "sleep tonight" with its wonderful "undercover" terrace and views over the tree "tops" down to the city. "Coming down again" he showed us how everything worked in the kitchen and lounge area from the wifi "connection" to how to "flip the switch" to make the pool lights "come on", nothing was too "complicated". We then went out to the patio and garden, full of exotic "flowers" and "dandelion" seeds wafting gently in the breeze, which offers plenty of privacy so you "can’t be seen" by the "neighbours". Philippe told us he had to go out with his "family" that evening but before leaving did not "hold back" on giving us the "low down" on what we could do and see in surrounding area. "Little by little" we settled into our "summer romance" with the French way of life and I soon felt I knew the village like the "back of my hand". The house really is ideally located as you just go "down the road a piece" to get to all the shops, restaurants and public transport you need, although "you can’t always get what you want". We really did have such "good times" in Allauch and as our week drew to a close it was with an "empty heart" that we had to face "going home". "Congratulation" must be given to Philippe for creating such a wonderful place as, "anyway you look at it", this is one of those rental "rarities" which exceeds your wildest "imagination" but offers great value for "money" – our "biggest mistake" was not booking for longer. Alas it is a "sad day" as "it is all over now" but "it won’t take long" until we plan a return trip. I don’t think this will be "the last time" we visit Paradou.
