A TRENDY CHIC ISLAND TAILORED TO HUMAN PROPORTIONS: This beautiful exclusive beach home is located on Ile de Ré, a popular summer resort on the western shore of the Atlantic. The tiny island (30 km long and between 100 m and 5 km wide) possesses many navigable waterways, a varied coastline with the largest beaches along the southern coast and yachting harbours on the sheltered northern side. The “White Island”, as it is also known, is linked to the busy port of La Rochelle by a 1988-built bridge stretching in a gentle curve over 3, 5 km. It is located 500 km from Paris and is reached daily by direct plane from Paris, London-Stansted, Birmingham and Southampton; by TGV in 3 hours or by the motorway in 4 and half hours from Paris.
Bordeaux, the ancient city and wine centre, is 150 kilometres away.
Ile de Ré is best visited by bike. (for rent everywhere). It is home to 16, 000 islanders who have chosen to live there year-round. It boasts 10 communes, all distinctly genuine villages.
VINEYARDS, SALT, OYSTERS AND POTATOES: In the 17th century, boats exported wine and salt from “Ré la Blanche” so named for its saltmarshes. The second part of the 19th century proved disastrous: phylloxera destroyed the vineyards and the salt- marshes were ruined by bad weather and competition from imported salt from the East and South of France. The population fell by half.
Today, vineyards occupy five times as little area as they once did. However, they still produce the traditional Cognac, Charente table wines and the excellent “Pineau des Charentes”.
Farmers grow a type of early potato, for which they have managed to gain an Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (A.0.C.). Oyster-farming made its appearance around 150 years ago when people learned to cultivate the “Fines” and “Spéciales de claires” which so far they had been content with gathering.
Salt production had very nearly disappeared. A new generation has now rolled up their sleeves to prepare saltpans and revive the harvesting of “white gold”.
SIGHTSEEING ON THE ISLAND: The 10 typical villages of the island (Rivedoux,-Plage, Sainte-Marie de Ré (labelled Station Verte de Vacances), Le Bois Plage en Ré, La Couarde sur Mer, Ars en Ré, Saint-Clément des Baleines, Les Portes en Ré, Loix, Saint-Martin de Ré, La Flotte); Saint-Martin, the historical capital with its beautiful Unesco-listed precincts fortified by Vauban; 12th-century Cistercian Abbaye des Châteliers; old royal buildings dating back to the British and French periods and the French religious wars (13th and 17th centuries); small museums such as the Hôtel de Clergeotte in Saint-Martin, or the Musée du Platin at La Flotte; one of the biggest European wild bird sanctuaries: Lilleau des Niges; salt-marshes where salt is still harvested before your eyes, oyster-farms, vineyards; the alleys between the green-shuttered whitewashed houses and their hollyhocks; numerous cycle-paths, windmills and thousands of other surprises – and finally, the bustling protestant city of La Rochelle with its museums and restaurants.

Summary: Really lovely large villa with unbelievable views to the sea. Excellent place for a large group with children. Easy cycle to la Flotte and st Martin almost all on cycle paths. Very highly recommended
Peter N. Jun 5, 2019 01:15:00 AM
Summary: We had a most enjoyable spring stay at the villa with six children and six adults. The layout is suited to the family with a granny wing and family annexe either side of the heated pool. The facilities provided like table tennis, table football and bikes(extra) were superb for introducing young children to new skills. An amazing collection of toys were hidden in various drawers and the overall sense of being lived in and not pared down for rental was very welcoming. The owner and managing agent could not be more helpful.
Cathy O. Nov 16, 2018 07:54:12 PM
Summary: The Villa was everything we had hoped for. The layout was perfect for our large family of ten adults, giving comfort & privacy to all. The ample garden was lovely, leading right down to the sea where we played boules in the evenings as the sun went down. The swimming pool was gorgeous & a really good size & quite warm enough considering it was October & the electric cover was a really nice addition too which seemed to help keep it super clean. The table tennis room was a huge success & the ample dining options were ideal for some lovely family meals. The location was great for cycling & walking. La Flotte & Saint Martin only a short drive or 15 to 20 minutes (gentle cycle) on the bikes. We had a really wonderful & memorable holiday at Les Ensemberts & hope to return again very soon.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home on Ile-de-Ré so very much. It was all the right things in all the right ways. We felt so at home. We made good use of the pool, the BBQ, the table tennis table, the beach, the bicycles... The house is very comfortable and well equipped and has wonderful flow and connection between the outside and indoor spaces. Catherine, our host, and Romain who provided concierge services were both so helpful and pleasant to deal with. The area around the house is peaceful and calm. There is a charming market, boulangerie and other necessities in La Noue - an easy 10 minute bicycle ride from the house. I would thoroughly recommend Les Ensemberts and I hope to return. Thank you, Catherine and Romain for a wonderful holiday.

Summary: The house is truly lovely and has everything a guest could possibly need. The position is wonderful and we long to return to enjoy the pool and garden right by the sea in better weather. Perhaps some of the beds were a little too small; we do tend to need our beds to be 190cm wide. However, the master bedroom was extremely comfortable and the many bathrooms and toilets was marvellous I would love to bring my grandchildren to stay here with the huge number of toys and the table tennis is a joy. Madame you have thought of just about everything. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and we loved the new restaurant you recommended . The weather was obviously unfortunate but it has not stopped us wanting to return.
Alastair R. Aug 28, 2016 04:37:24 PM
Summary: We have just returned from the most wonderful holiday in the villa. It is absolutely oustanding. From the moment you walk in and gasp at the view to the moment you set off off, the villa is outstanding. Morning cycles to the beautiful village square for breakfast, crabbing on the rocks, building sandcastles on the deserted beach, swimming in the glorious pool, sundowners at the end of the garden, cycle trips to the beautiful ports for superb meals. What more could you ask for? We stayed with 3 families and easily has enough room. Lastly, as with previous reviews, we found all of our dealings with Catherine and Romain the agent to be a pleasure. Everything done as promised with a smile.
Jim W. Aug 4, 2016 04:54:35 PM
Summary: Our family stayed at the villa in July 2016 and found the house, the facilities and location to be perfect. The villa is perfectly positioned in a quiet cul-de-sac a short cycle to the village square (La Noue), and about 30 gentle pedaling minutes to St. Martin. Regarding the 'business' side of our stay the owner and her agent were very easy and friendly to deal with, and everything that was promised was delivered with a smile. I couldn't recommend the villa enough for a visit to this paradise island.
Bronwen L. Jul 12, 2016 04:01:03 PM
Summary: We were a group of 4 couples in our 60's and 70's, so a mature group! The villa was a perfect base from which to explore the island. We took our own bicycles although we could have used those provided. The accommodation is of a very high standard, and well equipped, probably the best we have ever had. The garden and pool are a delight. We all wish to return again.
Frances T. Aug 2, 2015 06:40:00 PM
Summary: Ile de Re is an island geared towards the holidaymaker - it is where you can escape from the world for a short while; and Villa des Ensemberts really is the perfect place in which to do this. This sounds like an advert but it really is true - we had a perfect holiday and the villa was set up to make the most of this. There were six of us (2 adults; 4 children) and we had a huge amount of privacy, not only from the outside world but from each other as well. The facilities suited us very well indeed; everything worked and was well cared for; the beds were very comfortable; the pool was a good size and clean; and we were wonderfully cared for by the people who manage the property on behalf of the owner. Really, no complaints; and 'yes' we would definitely go back.
angela m. May 31, 2015 06:40:14 PM
Summary: Dear Catherine Thank you for allowing us to stay in your gorgeous villa. There were three distinct groups of us and absolutely loads of room for the children to play both inside and out. The weather was reasonably kind in the first week with the pool being used each day. It was cooler in the second week but almost always bright and sunny. You generously provided lots of indoor activities for both children and adults, which came into their own at some point during the holiday. We were also able to enjoy the activities of the wind surfers and kite skiers in the evenings with a superb view of the ocean over the swimming pool. Always better to watch than participate - for me at least! We would all like to visit again but in the summer; perhaps one day we will do just that! Thanks again for a memorable holiday. With our very best wishes Angela, Howard, Stephen, Matthew and Louise , Sam and Alex.
