Location Maison Saint-Martin-de-Ré

Our group was 4 couples who recently retired and like to share trips together. I had been to the island 3 times before but never stayed on the island. I found the website: en.myhomein-ildere.com by luck and found the site really easy to navigate. Response times were in most cases within an hour. I chose Aurélia 's home VILLA SAINT-MARTIN-DE-RÉ because of the location at the harbour and also so central in St Martin yet so quiet it hard to believe bars and restaurants are within minutes reach. The house itself was a wonderful experience. This is the old harbour Master's house. Staying there lets you feel back in time where perhaps there might be an invasion about to happen. The island has lots of history and buildings like the prison https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Saint_Martin_citadel_1681.jpg. Il de Re has everything a visitor could want. Great food, bikes to hire and many beaches. So much so you will have to make a return journey to experience everything. Aurélia's house is well run and has an extremely well-fitted kitchen. You might need to bring a chef to make the most of it. The people on il de Re are proud civilized and warm. Not once did I experience bad manners or an overly commercialized feel about the island despite a huge amount of visitors here. What's not to like? Well perhaps that my holiday was only 7 days. Well done en.myhomein-iledere.com and Aurelia for our splendid stay at VILLA SAINT-MARTIN-DE-RÉ
