Hear from Our Guests

“Incredible service!!! Highly highly recommend. We booked with Julien last minute for a private dinner at our Villa and he exceeded our expectations. Not only did he and the chef provide an incredible dinner but he helped us all throughout our stay. From bringing us pastries from a bakery we couldn’t get to, to finding vegan gelato, the service and communication was amazing. We didn’t have to go to the supermarket once. We will definitely be using them again!”

“Villa Prestige Services looked after us very well indeed”
“Villa Prestige Services looked after us from start to finish.The service was very professional and made our holiday effortless and hugely enjoyable.”

“Three generations of my family spent a magical week at Casa Lycka in June 2023. Fantastic location and perfect view of L’Escalet. The house was well stocked, had all the amenities including a lovely private pool, 2 outdoor dining locations for a big family, 1 indoor location and a nice grill. Conveniently, there were 2 clothes washers and 2 dryers. Far and away the best part of our stay was the service of Villas Prestige. Cyril, Clementine and Victor were there for our every need - from concierge services like restaurants and activities to late night club recommendations and even for a brief health emergency. Highly recommend as this is best in class experience.”

“Trusted Advice and Terrific Service”
“From research on villa options to the booking process, to event planning / reservations, and to the actual experience of a relaxing family vacation in Ramatuelle, VPS was absolutely amazing. We appreciate their overall professionalism, personalized approach, deep knowledge of the local area, and attention to detail. Well done VPS, you deserve five stars !!”

“Our family just spent a magical week at Casa Lycka. It’s the perfect house; it is very nicely furnished, well equipped, with a gorgeous view, a terrific pool, and is right by the beach. The Villas Prestige concierge service exceeded all expectations; every activity they planned for us was fantastic. They sent us out for adventures with Gregory, a top-notch activity guide, and the restaurants they recommended were spectacular. The chefs that came to the house were outstanding; Florence for dinner, who remembered my brother likes fish heads and saved them for him, and Roman’s breakfasts - particularly the scrambled eggs - are unforgettable. The concierge service responded immediately to any questions or requests and could not be nicer. Thank you, Clementine, Cyril and Victor, for an unforgettable trip!”
