I really wanted to love Vila Chaumieres because it has so many great features, like the charming location and lovely gardens. The staff were friendly and attentive, making me feel at home. However, the rooms left a lot to be desired, as they were not cleaned properly, and the restaurant had limited options that forced me to go into town for meals. If those issues were resolved, this place could truly shine.

My stay at Vila Chaumieres was a good experience full of warmth and relaxation. The beautiful surroundings and friendly service truly made me feel at home. Although the dining service took a bit longer, the fresh food made it well worth the wait. However, the location by the lagoon was not ideal for swimming, which was a slight disappointment.

The food was gourmet and delicious, with a great variety. My favorite was the chocolate mousse, but I did find that meals took a while to arrive due to the freshness of the ingredients.
