We had a wonderful stay in Montesquieu-des-Albères and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the house with the entire family. The house itself was exceptionally clean, well organized, and very well prepared for our arrival. Everything felt thoughtfully arranged, which made settling in easy and comfortable from the very beginning. The host was super friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. We particularly appreciated all the recommendations for things to do and places to visit in the region. The suggestions were spot on and really helped us discover the area. There is so much to see and do around Montesquieu-des-Albères that, even during our stay, we still had a long list of places we would have loved to visit but simply didn't have enough time for. The location is also fantastic for anyone who enjoys hiking. There are great trails starting right behind the house, ranging from around 2 to 6 hours and offering different levels of difficulty. It was wonderful to be able to step out of the house and have such beautiful walks right on our doorstep. The pool was another pleasant surprise. It was deeper than we had anticipated and large enough to actually do some light swimming, making it a great place to cool off and relax. For groceries, Le Boulou is only about a 10 to 15-minute drive away and has everything you need, while some essentials can also be picked up at the local shop, Le Local. The surrounding area itself has a lot to offer, and the French Mediterranean beaches were a particular highlight for us. Even during the main summer season, we found them surprisingly uncrowded and very enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. We felt very comfortable, enjoyed the house and the beautiful surroundings, and had a wonderful time exploring the region together as a family. We would happily come back and would definitely recommend the house to others looking for a relaxing stay with plenty of nature, activities, and great places to explore nearby.
