Villa with pool just a few minutes' walk from the beach and the Old Port

The location of this typical Rochelle house is exceptional: a few steps from the beach and the seafront, the old port, rue St Jean and its restaurants, the casino. On the edge of the park, in a quiet area of beautiful mansions, 200 m. from the promenade du Mail.

Park your car for free in the rue Jeanne d´Albret and forget about it. Everything is done on foot: beach, walks by the sea, shopping at the market, city tours, restaurants and bars. If you prefer, you can also go by bike, these are easy to store in the private alley bordering the house: beautiful walks from the casino along the cliffs to the beach of Chef de baie or that of Les Minimes (15 minutes), oyster villages or towards the Ile de Ré (10 minutes by car, 30 minutes by bike, easy trails).
The immediate environment is privileged: street classified as historic monuments, beautiful residences in the surroundings, very popular district, access to parks in 1 min (mini-zoo, playgrounds, rides, mini-golf), pedestrian downtown accessible by 10 mins on foot or a few minutes by bike.

The house was completely renovated in 2017 by an architect and a landscaper. The traditional charm has been preserved, but a refined and contemporary decoration brings it comfort and refinement.
Everything is new, furniture, bedding, appliances, dishes.

The landscaped garden, a real green setting in any season, with its olive tree, cypress and flower beds is not overlooked; the heated swimming pool, the garden furniture and the dining area create a unique holiday atmosphere compared to the situation of the house.

Cleaning is included as well as sheets, towels and kitchen linen. A TV space is available in the attic room, with a large corner sofa for movie nights.
Wifi accessible everywhere in the house and the garden.

Two fridges are available, one for food (with separate freezer), the other for drinks; Nespresso machine, full kitchen equipment, cocktail kits; bench in the pool; blade of water in the pool; logs for the fireplace provided; very good bedding; outdoor dining area designed to be protected from wind and sun without parasol; mini table tennis table with mini rackets…

Night lighting of the swimming pool, the garden and the terrace.

This rental may not be suitable for young children due to a steep staircase to the room in the attic.

Fantastic property in a great location

We travelled as a family of 6 and had a fantastic week in August 23. The property is extremely well refurbished and has a fantastic outdoor space. The location is ideal being a 8 - 10 min walk to the marina and old port where are all the restaurants, bars and main shops are. A quieter retreat to get away from the later night hustle and bustle of the main town. Local shop 2 min walk has all the produce you need for the week if you don’t have a car. Old town market is also fantastic and a must. Nicholas the house owner is extremely friendly and expedient in answering any questions. We met Laure on arrival who was so nice and explained everything. We are so grateful for letting us stay in a beautiful house and La Rochelle is also an amazing place with very friendly people and lots to see and do.

Multi generation family stay in La Rochelle

Great location for easy walking to markets, water, park, beach, and active port area. There was plenty of space for all of us (8). Pool was well needed, as this was a HOT week and the home has no AC. This hot weather is very unusual for the area, but nonetheless without AC or fans the third level sleeping area was not possible. Kitchen was well stocked. Host was very friendly and helpful on arrival. Bedding linens, pillows need an upgrade, especially third floor beds, but all sufficient.

A Beautiful House and Garden in the Centre of La Rochelle

We really enjoyed our time in this house. The garden was a perfect, restful space. It was great to come back to the cool shady areas around the pool and relax after spending time exploring the city. The house is set up with everything you need to enjoy your holiday. Whether it is relaxing by the pool with a drink, or cooking for the family. Despite the open plan design of the ground floor, everyone could find a quiet space to do their own thing. The house is located in a fantastic part of the city. You are a few minutes walk from the old town and port, lots of independent shops stocking local produce, parks, beaches, everything was on the doorstep. A real jewel of a house in a fantastic location.
