Private Heated pool - walking distance from Saint-Rémy-de-Provence

More than 75 very appreciative reviews, thank you to all our charming hosts who shared the pleasure of staying in our house dedicated to seasonal rental, and that we wanted to be like "home away from home" by its decoration and its comfort.

This house has many advantages: it is close to the town centre, it has leisure equipment such as a heated private swimming pool, a petanque court, a tennis table, bikes availabe, free Wi-Fi connexion, satellite TV and a film library.

About 10 min away by walking from the Saint-Remy-de-Provence town centre, 20 min drive away from Avignon TGV and 50 min away from the Marseille International Airport.





The single-storey house includes 140sq.m of living space, a beautiful lounge with comfortable space, a contemporary and cosy decoration, opened to the inner dining room. It also includes an well equipped kitchen. The main bedroom leading to the pool is equipped with a 180 cm bed and shares its separate bathroom (basin and bath) with a second bedroom that can be adjusted depending on the choice into a double bedroom with a 180 cm bed or two 2 x 90 cm beds and separate toilet.

La maison de Pegomas is ideally situated to profit from all the very best Provence has to offer. Located just ten minutes walk from the beautiful St. Rémy-de-Provence and within half an hour’s reach of the towns of Avignon, Arles, and L’isle sur-la-Sorgue, to name but a few. There is a wealth of cultural and historical attractions within an easy drive. In Arles, you can see the Roman ruins, the Museum of Arles and Provence or go to the lively Saturday market.

In Avignon, there is the Palais des Papes, an important medieval gothic building, boasting one of the largest gothic fortresses in Europe.

You can take a leisurely boat ride on the canals that pass through L’isle sur-la-Sorgue, a small but vibrant town, particularly visited for its many antique shops and where you can see working water wheels throughout.

Alternatively, you may wish to sample local wines and visit Château Romanin in St. Rémy where you can enjoy a tour of their vineyards and see their cellars.

Leisure activities around the area include horseback riding tours in Egalières, or avid golfers can tee off from either the Servants, Pont Royal or Manville courses nearby. For those feeling more adventurous, hire a bike for the day and choose a challenging long distance mountain bike trail. Whether an easy or vigorous route, cycling is one of the best ways to experience the breath-taking vistas of the Provencal countryside.

For family days out with the children, there are a variety of adventures to choose from. Rent a canoe in Avignon and view its historic buildings from the river Rhône, or take the steam train of Cévennes from Anduze to Saint-Jean-du-Gard, passing through the typical landscapes of the region or spend the day at the Zoo in La Barben, where you can see a huge variety of creatures: elephants, giraffes, crocodiles, wolves and yaks.

Beautiful Sanctuary in the heart of St. Remy
We loved this house!! It's nestled into a quite, safe neighborhood with only a 5 minute walk into lovely St. Remy with all of it's shops and cafes. The house opens up with several french doors to a private yard/ garden full of flowering plants, outdoor dining table and a nice sized, heated pool with comfortable loungers. We enjoyed that each room had a king sized, comfortable bed including bedding. We didn't know that the house didn't come with TP or paper towels so make sure to pick those up at the store before arrival. Julien was very responsive to all of my needs and questions. Would love to stay here again!

Julien's place was a perfect to stay in St Remy. Just a few minutes from the city center to restaurants and shopping, groceries and more. The house was well equipped with everything that we needed and the beds were super comfortable. Loved the back yard and look forward to using the beautiful pool on our next stay.

Perfect 10
La Maison du Gecko is an idyllic oasis located a short 10-15 minute walk to the center of town and the perfect home base from which to explore all of Provence. We stayed for one glorious month and found the home to be updated, spotless, spacious, impeccably decorated, comfortable, and outfitted with every amenity necessary for both short and long-term stays. The well-maintained, heated salt pool is simply wonderful. Julian is a welcoming, gracious, responsive, and superb host. His thoughtful gestures, such as mailing a forgotten, left behind ring and eyeglasses to the US, showcased a level of hospitality that extended beyond our departure. Nestled in the Alpilles in the heart of Provence, St. Remy has much to offer with shops, restaurants, art galleries, historic sites, and walking & biking trails. The Wednesday Market is not to be missed. Julian’s home was an ideal choice for us. Highly recommend!

Family Holiday
We had a wonderful time in this beautiful house for a special family holiday - the accommodation had everything we needed and was spotless when we arrived . There are so many interesting villages to explore nearby and we very much enjoyed walking easily into Remy for the market and meals out . It was then lovely to come back to the house to relax by the pool and in the evenings to eat under the beautiful arbour . Julian responded quickly to any queries we had and we would very much recommend staying here .

Tasteful and well equipped home
Lovely stay at this conveniently located and thoughtfully decorated villa. The pool is delightful and there’s a shady table for dining outside. Julien has selected very comfortable and stylish furniture, and the art is an unexpected bonus! For our stay, check in and checkout was “hands free” which can actually be more convenient than a rendezvous on a long travel day. Cleaning during our stay was much appreciated and Joana was very helpful. A good find!

Highly recommended, a fabulous stay
Many, many thanks to Julien for our wonderful holiday. We highly recommend this villa. The property was as described & shown in pictures. Key things we loved: - the property is stylish but still comfortable, everyone relaxed so easily - wonderful pool and garden, fully private and not overlooked - St Remy town massively surpassed our expectations, it is a BEAUTIFUL town, a short walk away (under 10 mins) , small & contained but large enough to have plenty of places to visit and enjoy. Lots of restaurants and cafes, sorting food for the family was easy. Big supermarket a 10-ish minute walk away or a 2 min drive - easy check in and departure, Julien's instructions were clear & easy - property was well looked after, with cleaners & pool cleaning during our stay - modern & well stocked kitchen The whole family agreed the property was our favourite of all our summer holidays this far, and we plan to return

Wonderful family vacation - fabulous spot in St. Rémy
My husband and I stayed at this property with our four kids (ages 11 - 18) and our parents. Everyone had a great time and there was plenty of room for all. There is a great outdoor table, and totally functional kitchen, and a great pool. Everyone loved relaxing in the pool after our days of sightseeing. The house is about a 12 minute walk from downtown St. Rémy. If we ever get to take a trip to St. Rémy again as a family, we would love to stay at this house again.

A great home-base for relaxation and for enjoying Provence
We were delighted with our stay. The house was quiet and comfortable and the beautifully maintained swimming pool was fantastic. The walk to the town center took less than 15 minutes and other sites are easily reached by foot as well. You will need a car to explore Provence and Les Alpilles more widely. We enjoyed our daily outings and made sure to return home in time for a refreshing swim. We would love to return someday.

The Provencal home is very well-located within walking distance of Saint-Remy-de-Provence. Well-appointed kitchen, as well as outdoor cooking areas, which were great. The yard was very nice and the pool well oriented and protected from the wind. Would highly recommend this house to a family or group of friends looking to experience life in Provence.

Perfect Base for Exploring Provence
Five of had a wonderful week here, using it as a base to explore Provence. Such a lovely home. Charming courtyard and outdoor dining table. The carriage house was the perfect sleeping arrangement for one of our crew's adult son who traveled with us. Janelle was extremely helpful with getting in the house, arranging for a private chef one evening, giving us dinner suggestions, etc. We loved being able to walk into town, and we enjoyed many of St. Remy's fabulous restaurants in the evenings after exploring all day. I hope to come back one day!

The perfect place to use as a base while exploring Provence!
La Maison Du Gecko was, indeed, the perfect place to use as a base while exploring St. Remy and Provence. It has spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, a huge living room/dining area and a great laundry room. The entire property was spotless when we arrived. The owner is in the process of remodeling the kitchen, so it will be even better when that is completed. The covered outdoor dining space is wonderful. We used it almost every night to enjoy dinner after picking up food at the many St. Remy's "take-out" stores or the nearby grocery store (called Inter Marche). The property is a short walk to the heart of St. Remy and all that this charming city offers. The owner, Julien, and his right-hand assistant, Janelle, are both extremely helpful and very nice people. We heartily recommend La Maison Du Gecko. You will not be sorry if you decide to book a stay there. Dan

Wonderful stay
We spent two enjoyable weeks exploring St Remy and the region from this property which was ideally located for the purpose. The home is an easy walk to the center of town and very comfortably accommodated our family and a friend. It is well laid out and well-appointed, although if you are coming from overseas (as we were) be prepared that you may have to purchase some basic supplies - and be aware that the big Intermarché is closed on Sundays. The pool was also a lovely respite on hot afternoons. The landlord is very responsive. Would be happy to stay here again and highly recommend.

Wonderful Home in Beautiful St. Remy de Provence
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Julien and Lucie’s wonderful vacation rental. The house has everything you need to ensure a relaxing vacation...from the spacious and comfortable bedrooms, to the heated in ground pool to the fully equipped kitchen to the fabulous harvest table under the pergola. Everything was just perfect. The house grounds were well manicured and looked after. Poolside there are lots of comfortable lounge chairs to relax and enjoy the sunshine. There were six of us sharing this space and we never felt crowded or in each other’s way. Maid service twice weekly was a nice treat and Joanna kept everything in tip top shape. Julien was a very receptive host and attended to our every request....even one to see his Dad who is a doctor! We couldn’t have asked for anything more or have been treated better. We hope to return to this home away from home in the future. Thanks Julien and Lucie for an unforgettable vacation! Sincerely, Scott & Co.

No Refund
We've stayed 1 1/2 day instead of 7 and the owner decided not to refund us any amount. Garage doors wasn't closing, some doors in the back couldn't be locked, we found some little crawlers in the kitchen, and spots of mold in the master washroom that was taking care when we left. It is too bad, we would have been happy to take a small loss but we took the full loss. It is unfortunate since the property is well located near bakeries and beautiful town.

Our family of four had the best week at this beautiful villa. Perfect villa, garden, terrace and pool area, and couldn't fault a thing. It was fully equipped with everything we needed and a high standard. The house is in a quiet residential area and a nice 10 minute walk to St Remy. This was our first visit to St Remy, which is a lovely town with lots going on and the market on Wednesday was great. Definitely one of our favourite houses by far! Lucie an Julien were both really welcoming and helpful before and during our stay. Thank you so much!
