September, the best season
Septembre, la meilleure saison

The sea is still 24 degrees, the beaches empty out, the cours Lafayette market finds its regulars again. My favourite time of year.

Through the seasons

September, the best season

The sea is still 24 degrees, the beaches empty out, the cours Lafayette market finds its regulars again. My favourite time of year.

Why I rent directly

Pourquoi je loue en direct

No commission, a contract signed with me, and a person who answers. That is what this site is for.

The house is ready

La maison est prête

The work is finished, the beds are made, the pool is filled. This morning I walked through the house with my camera — thirty-eight pictures, room by room.

To be completed — drafts for Mélanie to approveThese three entries are proposals built on known facts: the renovation, the photographs of 12 August, the opening. She reads them over, rewrites them in her own words or deletes them — a journal signed “Mélanie” publishes only what she has written.
The journal's rule
By date, never by category.

What is true all year round lives in "Things to do nearby". What is dated or seasonal lives here, signed, with its date. A journal sorted by theme hides its age — and age is exactly what you are looking for.

Par date, jamais par catégorie. Ce qui est vrai toute l'année est dans « Activités aux alentours » ; ce qui est daté ou saisonnier est ici, signé.

Hear about the next entries
A few lines each season, and the opening of the next two homes. Nothing else.
Enjoy your stay!
