What guests say :

 

We had an amazing time in the villa and made some amazing memories.

J J F (August 2025)

We had a wonderful time. We loved the Villa and the facilities were great.

Jennie F (16/8/25)

The villa was great, both inside and out. Thanks for all your help to make it run so smoothly.

Greg B (23/8/25)

We had an absolutely fantastic holiday! 10/10! The villa was brilliant, it had everything we could possibly need… We didn’t want to come home and are thinking of going back next year.

Michelle G (23/8/25)

Fabulous holiday thank you, with excellent weather” – Julie W (23/6/24)

“Fantastic family villa. The villa exceeded all my expectations. It was clean, spacious and the pool and garden stunning. The complex is very peaceful and it was a great place for a family holiday. Everyone we dealt with from booking to our stay were extremely helpful. Would highly recommend.” Emma K 2022

“Fabulous first family holiday. Clean, tidy and spacious villa with own pool, our villa was not overlooked by other properties. Three good-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms (one en suite), and very spacious living/dining/kitchen area. We went with two very small children and the villa layout worked well for us. The pool is perfectly adequate for cooling off and playing with plenty of inflatables! The reception area has a small shop, where you can buy essential food provisions, and the nearest supermarket is a 10-minute drive away. Oasis Les Jardins is an attractive setting, about a 10-minute walk from the coast. There are flat, sandy beaches slightly further up the coast towards Les Sables d’Olonne, which are accessible via about a 30-minute walk, or a 10-minute bike ride. Lots of bike paths everywhere, the area is very well setup for cycling! We drove down and took bikes and bike trailers with us in the van, but you can hire bikes/trailers etc from the reception. We’re certainly keen to return again, it’s a 670km drive from the Eurotunnel, but in our experience the French motorways are quiet and you can make good progress. We drove from Oasis Les Jardins back to Bristol with two under 3-year-olds in 1 day, so it’s doable. Thanks for the happy memories!” Richard W 2022

Trip Advisor review : Excellent
“A fantastic location just minutes from the coast, the parc itself is immaculate and very well set out . Spacious villas and a great pool. Delicious coissants at the parc’s bakery. Great location if you want to cycle.” Cully,

Trip Advisor review : Perfect family villa
“Good size, modern villa, with pool and near the beaches. Also family friendly with direct access to the bike routes into Les Sables d’Olonne. The villa was very clean and a great location for a family summer holiday.” Seth.

Trip Advisor review : Comfortable and well managed
“We have stayed at this location 3 times now in 3 different villas and have enjoyed it every time. The location is perfect and the villas are all of a very high standard – well equipped and well looked after. The staff at reception are helpful and they speak several languages. The location is very good for young children as it is gated and all pools are alarmed and within secluded and private gardens.”

Les Sables d’Olonne (5km)

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, a single-handed race around the world.

Le Puy du Fou (93km)
With over 1.5 million visitors a year, Le Puy du Fou is the fourth most popular attraction in France. It is a fantastic attraction for all ages, and more than a theme park in the traditional sense. It offers a selection of wonderful historical shows ranging from Roman circus games to world-class falconry. The main show takes place in the evening on a huge outdoor stage behind the ruined castle. It tells the story of the 700 years of history in the area in the form of a memorable sound and light show.

St Gilles Croix de Vie (34km)
The attractive seaside resort and fishing harbour of St Gilles Croix de Vie straddles the River Vie. The resort has a beautiful promenade lined with shops, cafes and restaurants, with rocky coves and small beaches to the north of the river mouth and the main sandy beach to the south.

Noirmoutier (83km)
Noirmoutier is a delightful low-lying island just off the Vendee coast. Accessed by either an ancient tidal causeway or modern bridge this small isle has a real Mediterranean feel with its whitewashed houses with contrasting terracotta tiles and blue shutters surrounded by pine forests. The island makes its living mainly from the sea with oyster and mussel beds and small harbours with colourful fishing boats.

Ile D’Yeu (sailings from Fromentine 66km)
Ile D’Yeu is a small island lying six miles off the Vendee coast. It is a microcosm of the nearby mainland with a colourful fishing port, sandy beaches backed by dunes and pine forests, sheltered coves and low cliffs. The hour long ferry sails to Port-Joinville, a bustling harbour with and the main town on the island with a good selection of shops, bars and restaurants lining harbour side.

Marais Poitevin (77km)
Known as the ‘Venise Verte’ or ‘Green Venice’ the Marais Poitevin is a tranquil wetland made up of natural watercourses, man-made canals as well as meadows, dykes and fens. This remarkable area of marshland is full of wildlife and the dominant features of the landscape are the poplar trees, which shade the waterways, bending and rustling in the wind. The best way to discover this wildlife haven is by boat and these can be hired from several local centres, including the pretty village of Coulon.
