Plan early for the perfect holiday
/As holiday celebrations wrap up, and in the Northern Hemisphere we brace ourselves for the chillier weather, summer vacations can feel like a distant dream. However, booking your holiday rental in Southern France early in the year and especially ahead of the Spring rush, can yield rewards in the form of greater availability and more options for Provence vacation homes, taking the stress out of pulling together the perfect summer travel plans.
The trend to book earlier is advancing every year. At Roumanille, we are increasingly taking bookings for a year in advance. Many are repeat visitors, but new guests are also keen to get a jump on the best dates while there is still availability. Once the right accommodation is secured, travelers can also get ahead on making arrangements for high demand Provence experiences.
Location is a top priority for those looking to experience the real Provence. Roumanille is conveniently located within 15 minutes of Provence’s culinary capital – Lourmarin. Home to a handful of Michelin starred restaurants, the best tables during the peak seasons are hard to come by if you haven’t pre-reserved. Domaine de Fontenille vineyard is a stone throw from the home, where tours, tastings and exquisite meals are a local delight. Advance reservations are recommended especially for bigger groups.
A perfect summer holiday is easily fulfilled with a Southern France vacation rental with a pool. Accommodation comparable to Roumanille is few and far between. Villas in Provence with a private pool are not as common as one would expect, and the vast open natural area home to a retired olive grove and to fresh Provencal herbs that are part of the property is also a rarity.
If you are considering a vacation in Southern France we encourage you to get ahead of the game and book your holiday villa in Provence early, to ensure the best experiences on offer.
