I cannot express enough how much we enjoyed our stay. Villa Belvedere is a truly special place, and we would definitely like to return. The house was perfect for 4 adults, 3 children; incredible views; the most well-equipped kitchen I’ve ever come across (!) We loved cycling around the countryside visiting several hilltop villages as well as playing with our children in the pool. The concierge also prepared a delicious meal for our friend’s birthday so thank you for this wonderful recommendation :-)

Villa Belvedere was excellent. The location is great, the view is extraordinary. The house is well designed and nicely furbished. It offers a lot of space, a very nice living room. It's a place where you feel at home after half day and where you would like to stay longer!

The house was in great condition and very well appointed. I would love to stay here again, appreciating the view from the terrace whilst drinking a glass of wine. Every facility you would expect at your disposal and an well equipped kitchen. I have no reservations in recommending this Villa.

The accommodation at the villa was excellent and we had a wonderfully relaxing time. The living spaces and bedrooms were generous and the kitchen well equipped. Villa Belvedere is well placed to achieve what I had hoped to do and that was to visit the hilltop villages of the region without long drives.

We enjoyed a wonderful holiday in Villa Belvedere. The house was beautifully decorated, very well equiped and located in a very quiet area. We will never forget the breakfasts/dinners with such a great view on the Luberon valley, and the time spent with our kids in the pool and on the petanque court. We hope to come back in the future!

We had a fabulous time at Villa Belvedere. It is a quite amazing house - so good, with such stunning views from the terrace that we probably didn't see as much of Provence as we should because we couldn't wait to get back to the house. Our best holiday for years, We have been to many places in France but have fallen in love with the Luberon. I can't wait to come back - we have never been so 'triste' at the thought of coming home! A bientot!
