“Unique,quirky and superb.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 7, 2013

We instantly loved this little B&B, which was so much more than just bed and breakfast. As soon as you enter the most fabulous garden you feel relaxed and far from the busy city across the river. The bedrooms are like a mini apartment with, use of cooking facilities outside seating, and a small pool too. we visited in early March and instantly wanted to return again. The owners Tatiana and Jean-Phillipe are really nice, so friendly and make you feel so at home. Titiana makes the most delicious preserves from fruit grown in the garden, and the breakfast was always lovely and home-made. We only stayed two days and didn't want to leave, we hope to return to stay in late summer and would certainly return to L'ilot Bambou. Avignon is a lovely place and L'ilot Bambou is in a perfect location for the city and exploring Provence. We travelled by Eurostar and TGV straight to Avignon and the B&B is only 10 minutes from the train station. A wonderful place, loved it!

“Avignone in March”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 4, 2013

Only two words: beautiful place. Tatiana and Jean Philippe, two wonderful people.

During breakfast, that is spectacular and abundant, we were in company of them for talking about us, them and all the world.
The B & B is near the center of Avignon, so you can walk because the traffic is really terrible.
So beautifull B & B, ten points!.

“Amazing place - all should stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 14, 2012

Avignon is a tough city to navigate, especially in a car. Staying across the river and walking across the bridge was so pleasant and relaxing, compared to staying in a cramped room in the old city. Tatiana and Jean-Phillipe were super - they waited for my late arrival, made sure I was all set. Super big rooms, super nice gardens and grounds. Breakfast comes from their garden and was amazing! Recommended for everybody!!!

“A definite hidden gem!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 29, 2012

I can't recall exactly how we stumbled upon this B&B, but despite their not being any reviews online that I could locate, we took our chances and it turned out to be an absolute hidden gem!
Tatiana and Jean-Phillipe were very welcoming and friendly and our room was beautiful and spacious. The back garden area of L'ilot Bambou is such a peaceful, relaxing spa oasis - and when the weather was nice, we were even served our breakfast in the garden. Breakfast here was also great with a generous variety of traditional French and homemade goods to start our day. To top things off, this B&B is in a great location - on the Island of Piot, directly across the river from Avignon. Consequently, once we arrived here we were able to park our rental car outside the front of L'ilot Bambou and walk across the Edouard Daladier bridge into Avignon to do our exploring - the walk into Avignon took about 10-15 mins but the views of Avignon and the famous Saint-Benezet bridge along the walk are absolutely spectacular. We would definitely highly recommend staying here.
