A charming 3-bedroom home with private pool in the heart of La Noue — 400 metres from the ocean, 5 stars, 18 reviews.
Set on a quiet residential street in La Noue, this spacious family home sits at the centre of a private courtyard garden. The pool is lined with tropical plants, flowering oleanders frame the terrace, and the surrounding walls give it a sense of complete seclusion — guests say it's more private than it looks in the photos.
Inside, the living space is open and bright, with painted beams and a high ceiling that keeps things cool on warm afternoons. The kitchen is fully equipped and opens directly onto the terrace — perfect for cooking while the kids are in the pool.
The garage stores bikes, surfboards and bodyboards. The outdoor kitchen has a proper charcoal and wood barbecue. There's an electric awning for shade, two private parking spaces, and WiFi throughout. It's been set up to feel like home rather than a rental.

"Really lovely house in a great location — edge of town, quiet, but easy walk or cycle to everywhere. Photos do not do it justice. Private courtyard feel, plenty of outside space to lounge, great pool area. The outside kitchen was a big plus — BBQ every night. We stayed for almost two weeks and would happily have stayed longer."
"Me and the family absolutely loved Martin and his family's property. We have children aged 2, 3 and 11 — the swimming pool with the security gating was great for peace of mind. Plenty of room for everyone. Martin and his wife were so friendly and helpful with recommendations. Will definitely be coming back next year."
"The house is laid out very well for a family — you can cook and see the gated pool at the same time. The pool is warm and great fun for the kids even when overcast. The property is not overlooked and the view is of large trees nearby. Very peaceful. We have stayed in this area before and would happily come back."
The house is in La Noue, a quiet village on the south side of Île de Ré — one of France's most beautiful islands, sitting just off the Atlantic coast near La Rochelle. It's almost completely flat, which makes cycling the natural way to get around. The island has 80km of bike paths.
The village centre is 750m away on foot or by bike. There's a pretty main square with restaurants, a bakery, a fishmonger, and a charcuterie. A daily market runs through the main season selling local produce — oysters, salt, wine and fresh fish.
