AMAZING!
We loved every second of this Villa. The house was clean, updated and large enough with multiple sleeping options and bathrooms/showers. The grounds were gorgeous - as pretty as the pictures! Our hosts (Fabien and Carol) were so incredibly friendly and were timely in answering any questions we had. We also had the extra bonus of hiring a local chef (Jean-Marc Larrue - email with his permission is jml.larrue@gmail.com) who had more than enough room to make amazing meals in the very large kitchen. Nothing but a "five star" experience. Would return at anytime!

5 Star Resort in an Ideal Provençal Location
Adult family reunion was dramatically enhanced by the accommodations and great care and service provided by Fabien and his witty daughter (who excelled in English). We utilized the entire array of amenities from the luxurious pool, to bolle in the large, groomed and private backyard, BBQ, sun bathing, cocktail hour on the patio etc. Equally important, the location just outside of Avignon, allowed us to make day trips to fabulous villages, wineries, and historical sites. We visited St. Rémy, Aix de Provence, Avignon, Roussillon, Nîmes, Arles, Orange, and several other “must sees”. Regarding the chateau, we were blown away with the modern and very elegant design and layout. The kitchen and community rooms were bright and first rate quality. Fabien and his daughter were gracious hosts. They even came out to assist our friends who had car trouble late at night on one of the country roads near the house. Now that’s service! We had a wonderful stay in Provence, in large part because of the special touches found here at this home away from home. Thanks, Fabien! Mark San Francisco Area

A Hideaway Resort
Fabien and his daughter were very welcoming. It is such a beautiful home with a lot of thought going into the design. It has a resort feel to it. On arrival a bowl of freshly picked nectarines from Fabien and a bottle of wine to greet us. The house has air conditioning and it was very much needed during our time. The highlight was the pool for everyone, very clean and well maintained. We stayed for two weeks and would have liked to have stayed another week. Our excursions were Arle, St Remy and Avignon, all within reachable distance. There is a bbq, which we used, a table tennis and boule set. Thank you to Fabien for allowing us to use your fabulous home!

Fab family break
The villa exceeded our expectations, and was even more beautiful than the pictures online show. Fabien met us with his family, his daughter can speak some English and so gave us the guided tour and showed us how to set the alarm, turn the pool waterfall on and work the air con. We travelled with our 2 young children (aged 4 and 1) and 3 grandparents. There was plenty of room and it was great knowing we had the place, more importantly the pool to ourselves. The children were able to play with toys, go in the pool and even ride some bikes which were available in the garage. There is a shower and sink available in every room except the children’s room which meant there were no long waits for the shower. 2 separate toilets too. The villa has been furnished beautifully and was very clean and tidy. The pool area and outside table and loungers were also exceptionally clean. The villa is a 5 min drive to the nearest supermarket in Chateaurenard, and Avingnon city is about 15 min drive away. We intended on having a relaxing break with family and that is exactly what we did. We would recommend staying here, great value for money, and a lovely setting for a family and children. Thank you Fabien, we will definitely be back.

Amazing
We had a wonderful holiday, the weather was terrific. Fabien was very helpful. A few pointer for next year for holiday makers We found it hard to turn showers down as the water was very hot, it would be more practical to have a door rather than curtain on downstairs shower as it stuck to you every time you showered. The main concern for us was that the pool alarm was not on and we were told to be vigilant. My father who lives nearby and worked for Interpol said that pool alarm should be on Other than that we had a great time and would recommend to other people

Terrific family holiday accommodation
We spent a very happy week at the delightful Mas Le Macaju in the first week of July. This is a property that will particularly suit a family with young children, looking for somewhere more contemporary than rustic, comfortable, safe and within easy reach of the towns and villages on the western edge of Provence, 20 minutes from Avignon and about an hour to the airport in Marseille. The owner, Fabien, speaks heavily-accented French and barely any English but is very accommodating and responsive, and clearly takes great pride in maintaining the property. The house was spotlessly clean and the facilities excellent - a beautiful pool, a lovely shaded outdoor bbq/dining area, a modern laundry and well-equipped kitchen. Lounging by the pool, reading a good book and drinking copious quantities of rose was no hardship here!

Can't Wait to Come Back!
Fabien's vacation home in Chatearenard is fantastic! The pictures are great but the reality is even better. The home is beautifully maintained and very well equipped for comfort. The grounds and pool are like a high end resort, but you have it all to yourself. The property itself feels private and secluded but is very handy to the town of Chateaurenard (great little shops for supplies) and only 10 minutes from Avignon. This is also an ideal location if you are interested in wine touring. In the heart of the Rhone and not far from coast it makes an excellent home base. Fabian is a wonderful host and truly wants his guests to have a memorable stay. I HIGHLY recommend this property at the risk of it not being available for our next visit!

Great location for seeing sights in Provence and a beautiful property with great amenities.
This home is situated near sights worthy of visiting: Les Baux des Provence, Gordes, Fontaine de Vaucluse, Arles, La Camargue, Parc du Luberon and Avignon. The house offers 5 bedrooms (1 is a small bedroom for children). Four bedrooms have a shower and sink. There are two toilets (WC), one per floor. We had 8 in our party and this arrangement helped us get out door quickly to see sights. The pool is magnificent - we spent days around the pool lounging. It was a highlight of our days. The owner was very responsive (he lives nearby) to our questions and always helpful. Our only feedback is that we recommend the owner put on paper in English the directions for pool (lighting, waterfall etc), water heater, regulating temperature of shower, and recommendations for nearby restaurants. This would allow renters to manage on their own. We would love to return to this property.

A stunning villa set in beautiful grounds everything we were looking for - delighted!!!
One is never sure what to expect- this villa met all and more than our expectations. The villa is only 4 years old and beautifully finished with everything we needed for our family holiday. It is surrounded by nectarine orchards and close enough to Chateaurenard to be able to pop in for any food, wine etc. The owner - Fabien- met us on our arrival to explain all we needed to know about the villa. He and his family- we met them later in the week- are absolutely delightful people, we had a couple of questions after our first day and sent him a message, he immediately replied and called in to the villa within a couple of hours to see us. We highly recommend this villa and will certainly book it again for our next family gathering.

Wie im Paradies
Es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt. Das Haus und der Garten sind mindestens so schön wie im Angebot beschrieben. Man kommt zum Grundstück, drückt auf die Fernbedienung und es öffnet sich das große Tor zum Paradies. Es ist alles wunderschön und liebvoll angelegt. Wir waren Anfang April dort und konnten bereits den geheizten Pool benutzen. Das Haus ist groß und geräumig. Die vier Doppelzimmer sind mit französichen Betten ausgestattet (1x180 cm, 2x160 cm und 1x140cm) und es gibt noch ein weiteres (Kinder-)Zimmer mit einem Einzelbett und einem Kinderbett. Jedes Doppelzimmer hat ein eigenes Bad, das aber jeweils direkt im Zimmer ist und kein WC hat ! Die WCs sind seperat (eins oben, eins unten) und es gibt nur diese zwei (kleiner Kritikpunkt). Der Wohnbereich ist großzügig und die Küche riesig und komplett ausgerüstet. Die Lage des Hauses ist ideal. Man hat im Umkreis von ca. 2 km alle wichtigen Geschäfte (Intermarche, Lidl, Super-U, mehrere Bäckerein) und das Zentrum von Chateaurenard ist auch nur ca. 3 km entfernt. Trotz dieser zentralen Lage ist es im Haus und auf dem Grundstück sehr ruhig. Alles in allem war es ein toller Aufenthalt und der Vermieter Fabien ein sehr angenehmer und hilsbereiter Gastgeber. Wir würden jederzeit wieder in diesem Haus Urlaub machen.

Super Urlaub für 2 Familien mit Kindern
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in einem traumhaften Ferienhaus! 2 Familien mit 3 Kindern, die den fantastischen Pool auch schon Anfang April dank Heizung genießen konnten. Wir haben schon ein paar Häuser in dieser Gegend besucht und waren hier positiv überrascht, wobei die Fotos ja schon viel versprochen haben! Ausstattung ist mehr als ausreichend vorhanden und alles war sauber. Fabien ist bei jeder Frage schnell zur Stelle, absolut unkomplizierte und schnelle Kommunikation. Die Lage ist für uns super, sehr ruhig und niemand fühlt sich von den Kindern gestört. Abends waren nur die Kröten in einiger Entfernung zu hören. Der nächste Urlaub hier ist schon vor Abreise gebucht worden. Wir kommen sicher noch einige Male wieder und freuen uns schon auf ein Wiedersehen.

Ein Traumurlaub in le Macaju
Wir waren zu neunt (eine Kochgruppe und ich) in dem wunderschönen Haus am Rand von Chateaurenard. Das Haus war in Wirklichkeit noch schöner als die Fotos und die Beschreibung vermitteln konnten. Im umzäunten Gelände fanden all unsere Autos Platz und wir waren umringt von Obstgärten, so dass ausser einem kleinen gesprächigen Frosch nachts himmlische Ruhe herrschte. Der wunderschön angelegte Garten mit dem Pool (der als Extra noch eine integrierten Jacuzzi und einen Wasserfall hatte) waren bei den heissen Temperaturen ein idealer Rückzugsort. Die Terrasse hatte sehr bequeme Stühle und war abends wunderschön zu beleuchten. Was mir als Köchin besonders gut gefiel war die große Küche, die zum einen sehr gut eingerichtet war und auch Platz für alle Kochwilligen liess. Den geschmackvollen Salon und das kleine Büro benutzen wir ob des schönen Wetters gar nicht. Alle Zimmer waren gleich groß und gleich schön, allerdings sollte ein Pärchen recht "kuschelig" unterwegs sein, weil es mit 140 etwas schmaler ist. Unser Gastgeber Fabien war ein Schatz! Nicht nur, dass schon gekühlter Rosé und hausgemachter Saft im (sehr grossen) Kühlschrank war. Er hat uns alles wunderbar gezeigt und erklärt, gab uns Tipps für unser "Sonntags-Poulet". Überhaupt waren die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten wie Supermarkt und Bäcker recht nah. Schöne Ort in der Nähe wie l'sle sur Sorge (mit Sonntagsmarkt) und ST. Remy mit seinen schönen Gässchen und natürlich Avignon machten den Aufenthalt zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Merci beaucoup Fabien et j'espere à la prochaine:-)

Wunderschönes Haus mit perfektem Pool und Garten
Das Mas «Les Macaju» ist ein sehr schönes Ferienhaus, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und in einem sehr guten Zustand. Der grosse gepflegte Garten mit einem fantastischen Pool macht das Anwesen perfekt. Das Mas ist für Ausflüge in alle Windrichtungen in der Provence bestens gelegen. Dank der ruhigen Lage an einer Nebenstrasse kann man auch einfach entspannt Ferien ums Haus machen. Wir haben eine Woche mit 3 Generationen verbracht und jede Altersklasse hat die Zeit in der Wohlfühloase gleichermassen genossen. Auch mit 8 Personen fühlt sich das Haus immer noch grosszügig an und man hat nie das Gefühl sich auf die Füsse zu trampeln. Jedes Zimmer (ausser dem Kinderzimmer) hat eine eigene Dusche was für eine gewisse Privatsphäre sorgt. Der Kontakt mit dem Besitzer Fabien läuft unkompliziert und freundlich ab. Fabien ist für seine Gäste erreichbar und gibt ihnen ein gutes Gefühl. Wir können das Mas «Les Macaju» mit gutem Gewissen weiterempfehlen und werden sicher wiederkommen. Vielen Dank Fabien!

Excellente expérience au coeur de la provence
Très joli mas dans un excellent état avec un jardin exceptionnel. La piscine chauffée est parfaite en pré-saison et on a pu profiter de la piscine même avec une météo officielle à 21 degrés seulement. Depuis la terrasse à l‘ombre d‘agréables voiles et bien protégé du vent, on a une belle vue sur la piscine et le jardin. Côté cuisine aussi tout le confort souhaité. Les supermarchés et un très bon boulanger sont à 3 minutes en voiture sur des routes calmes sauf sur les derniers 500m. Donc le velo (disponibles dans le mas) serait aussi possible. Notre hôte, Fabien était très accueillant. Une magnifique expérience et on reviendra l’année prochaine. Note 5/5.
