Elisabeth, you know how to make Provence accessible and heart-meltingly lovely for your guests. From the lilies in the common area to the basked of fresh breads outside our door each morning, to the N'Espresso machine, to the beautiful views, lovely private spaces, and perfect walk into Lourmarin, you have a great place in a great location with all the... more

Les Olivettes is a wonderful retreat within walking distance of Lourmarin and has the comfort, style and many of the amenities one might expect of a highly rated establishment. It is beautifully decorated and each apartment has its own special character. Every morning croissants and baguettes were delivered from a nearby boulangerie and there were always suggestions for things to... more

Given other reviews, it is difficult to find additional words to describe Les Olivettes. It provides extremely comfortable accommodations in an excellent setting. The views are outstanding; its location is only five minutes ( walking) from town and provides easy access to other tourist sites; and Lourmarin has to be one of the best small towns in which to stay... more

Expensive for our budget but certainly furnishings, access to good coffee (in shared living area,) terrace for breakfast and proximity to village , were excellent.

It was a perfect arrangement for a group of friends. We used the Winn's guidebook and tried several of the day trip suggestions - we recommend all of... more

There is not much more one can add to all the previous comments posted about Les Olivettes. Once visited, it will be forever one of those places that you will want to return to time and again. From the hospitality to the views, the comfort, the morning croissants, the power shower in the bathroom, the list of superlatives is endless.... more

We love Les Olivettes for it's comfortable rooms, lovely grounds, pet-friendly policy and proximity to the best village in Provence. With 16+ village restaurants to choose from, and easy shopping nearby, staying at this self-catering property is a breeze. The owners are great, and Joe in particular is easy to talk to and full of great information about the area.... more

We wanted a central location, close to many villages, historical sites, markets and other interesting things to see and do. Lourmarin and Les Olivettes was exactly the right spot. We wanted a clean, quiet and spacious location and Les Olivettes was all that and more. The pictures and description on the web site got us interested and raised our expectations.... more
