Mas de Capelou

We stayed here for 4 nights and loved this place. It's very quiet. The rooms are spacious and well furnished. Valerie and her son are very hospitable. We loved the breakfast in the mornings - fresh croissants, eggs made to order. The peach nectar/juice (local) was delicious. It's a great location to explore Provence. There were a lot of pretty and interesting towns within an hour's drive.

This was the most charming place to stay at during our travels. The owners are so lovely and helpful. The grounds are just beautiful. So many nooks outside to relax. Our room was beg and very nice and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. We had a magical stay. Thanks so much.

What a wonderful location to spend time at. Easy drive to Avignon and surrounding areas, excellent surroundings and rooms, very good air conditioning and wonderful hostess/owner. Wish we did not have to go home.

Just can recommend this place. Very nicely located, very quiet. Only 7km to the city center of Avignon. Very friendly host. Large garden with swimming pool, restaurant and different places to relax. Typical french breakfast including brioche and croissants

We stayed at May de Capelou in May 2022. It is a beautiful farmhouse but it has a problem - mosquitoes - and lots of them. There is no mention in their publicity that the property is located on an island. Nor do they warn guests of the issues when they check-in. We were encouraged to book at their outdoor restaurant La Brousse on our first night, surrounded as it is by woodland and orchards, and we were eaten alive. The mosquitoes were everywhere, swarming over our heads and in our faces. The hotel don't mention either that that have 6 machines in operation to try and control the population which clearly don't work. My wife was severely bitten in spite of the fact she was dressed in long trousers, lace up shoes and a long sleeved top. Her leg swelled up and we were forced to leave after 2 days of a planned week. The manager Valerie was not sympathetic, giving the equivalent of a gallic shrug. When we informed her that we would be leaving, my wife spent the entire day in our room. At no time was there any enquiry from the hotel staff as to her welfare. Not a visit to the room or even a telephone call when they knew she was unwell. When we checked out at 1700 which the hotel were advised of, I felt sure that this small boutique hotel which is marketed as being "like a private house" would at least give us a personal farewell. I would expect that under normal circumstances let alone after our experience. Not a single member of staff appeared, yet one was clearly visible sunning himself at the hotel pool. We left alone without a single word from the hotel. In summary I don't believe this hotel really cares for it's guests. They certainly did nothing for us in the wake of our experience showing a casual disregard for our wellbeing. I wrote to the manager when we returned home and gave them an opportunity to make a gesture of goodwill towards us in view of what happened. They were not interested except to say they would consider refunding something if they re-let the room Think very carefully before you book this hotel and consider the pitfalls.

(+) charming property, well maintained (+) rooms offer everything you need (dish washer, laundry, air conditioning, fully equipped) (+) high Performance Internet available in the entire property incl pool area (+) wonderful hospitality and great friendly service, both by owner family and staff (+) everything is uncomplicated but to high standards, it feels like being in a high end private serviced residence rather than in a hotel (+) seems to attract other pleasant guests

wonderful stay-amazing accommodations~lovely friendly people....can't even begin to describe....so much fun and creative and clean and comfortable..... if you can afford it--stay here!!!! Maxense and the others are simply the most gracious and best hosts we have come across in France...

A very nice, quiet and relaxing place in Avignon. The host Valérie and her staff are very welcoming and friendly. We stopped for one night on our was to the cost in South of France and we really loved it! We will definitely come back again for longer time! Thanks Valérie for your kindness and hospitality!
