Fabulous time in the Vendee
We had a great time at Villa Sophora. The facilities at the villa were excellent both inside and out. The garden and pool area were well designed allowing us to maximise the outside area for eating, relaxing and playing. Big thanks to Christophe for answering my questions and helping with last minute changes to our plans. We would definitely return and use Select Villas again.

Comfortable, large villa
The villa is beautiful situated in a small park from where you can walk or bike to the coast/beach of Sable D’Olinne. The villa has a large livingroom with a view at the green lushy garden with swimmingpool. We had a wunderful stay with our family here.

Excellent Holiday Accomodation
Jardins D'Olonne is situated in a quiet area about a five minute car ride from the lovely town and beach of Les Sables D'Olonne. The villa that we hired had its own pool which was not overlooked by any of the other villas. The villa itself offered fantastic accomodation with good quality furnishings and modern kitchen equipment. Booking in was easy, and we were in fact, able to book in early which was a real bonus. Upon arrival all the beds were made and the accomodation was spotless. The people on reception were very helpful and very pleasant. We hope to visit again in the future.

The villa was amazing with a large private pool which our kids loved. Situated on a spacious and beautifully maintained holiday parc near to the beach and numerous attractions. I would highly recommend.

Great Holiday!
Fantastic holiday at Jardins d’Olonnes . Our Villa was spacious, well presented and well equipped, with a lovely swimming pool. The on site staff were very helpful, and we were close to lovely beaches and Les Sables-d’Olonne, which is very attractive and has plenty of restaurants, shopping and a lovely market. Christophe at Select Villas was very helpful and attentive. Thanks very much.

SUPERBE
le domaine est très beau, très bien entretenu. La villa était superbe, tant intérieur qu'extérieur et il ne manquait rien. Nous y avons passé d'excellentes vacances et espérons y retourner. Seul petit bé-mol peut-être : nous sommes arrivés un samedi et personne à la réception. Les renseignements y étaient, nous avons tout trouvé mais comme le classeur mentionné n'était pas dans la villa, nous avons dû nous débrouiller. Pas de problème majeur néanmoins sauf l'alarme de la piscine ..... Mais en résumé, tout était parfait, même le temps. Félicitations

Perfect place to relax.
This is a luxury holiday park. The villas are secluded and separated from each other so it does not feel like you are close to others. Our villa had everything we needed, including UK TV (BBC1 & BBC2) so we could also catch up with the Olympics in the evening! Pretty much everything you need is on site, including a great restaurant (one of the top ones in the area) and a snack bar/ bakery shop. There are plenty of activities on site like tennis, table tennis and a large pool. We had our own smaller pool which was great to dip in during the hot weather we had. The coast is very close by and we rented bikes so that we could explore it. We had a very relaxing time here and will probably return

Fantastic place for groups/families with children
My family - a group of 14 people ranging in age from 2 years old to 77 - booked two villas for a two week holiday in July. We would definitely go back if we were holidaying in the same area again. The accommodation was perfect with basic but perfectly adequate rooms, big living/dining areas and good pools. The bakery on-site was great - the kids loved getting up early in the morning to go and get the baguettes and croissants for breakfast. The shared playground and swimming pool were also great - a good option if you wanted to get out of the villas. Because it's a gated community it felt very safe and the kids could wander between villas without the worry of fast cars/roads. The local beach was a short drive away and was great for rock-pooling and swimming. We found a great restaurant - Anguilla Beach - which was wonderful when we rolled off the beach at the end of the day in need of a beer and some good food.

About the neighbourhood
Les Sables d’Olonne is Vendee’s best known and largest resort. With its long promenade, choice of wide sandy beaches and excellent quayside restaurants, it is a popular destination for a family seaside holiday. It has a thriving fishing port and world class marina which is the start and finish point of the prestigious Vendee Globe sailing event. With over 1.5m visitors a year, Le Puy du Fou is the fourth most popular attraction in France. It is a fantastic destination for all ages, and more than a theme park in the traditional sense. It offers a selection of wonderful historical shows. The main show takes place in the evening on a huge outdoor stage behind the ruined castle with a memorable sound and light show.
Access
Car advised
How to get there
One of the reasons for the popularity of Vendee to the British is the relatively short driving distance to sunshine. For many in the south of England, Vendee can be reached in a day, albeit a long one. The much improved roads across the north of France offer a short sea crossing from Dover with a 6 to 7 hour drive. Alternatively, a longer (and less frequent) crossing to Normandy or St Malo means a shorter drive of between 3 and 4 ½ hours once in France. Vendee is well served by flights from the UK. The nearest airports are: Nantes (driving time approx. 1h15min) La Rochelle (1h40min) Poitiers (2h)
