i-escape Reviews 

La Maison Papillons in the tiny hamlet of Monteil, near Montclus, is as close as you will get to a little piece of heaven on earth. Described as a B&B, it is really a very stylish small hotel- only 9 rooms- where everything is just as it should be. Within minutes of arrival you know the stay will not be long enough, The welcome is warm with Caroline and Olivier making everything feel comfortable and relaxed and not long after that you feel as if you are family. The rooms vary in size and style but ours was beautiful, the pool a perfect size and the table d'Hote offered the night of our arrival a vegetarian feast. The surroundings are not exactly buzzing with attractions but if you are after a peaceful time in a beautiful part of France somewhere at the intersection of Provence, the Ardeche and the Gard this is your place. It won't disappoint, Caroline and Olivier and their lovely assistants in the kitchen and beyond will make sure your stay is unforgettable.

The location, the host and the view. Francesca could not have been more helpful. We would highly recommend San Giorgio Resort. We are definitely returning next year.

I've always trusted I-escape's taste in curating small hotels that combine charming ambience with value. Note too the staff helpfully tells you what you may not like, as no place is perfect this side of heaven

Just the most perfect escape, from the utter tranquility of the hotel to watching the swifts and swallow from the roof top
In the morning and evenings . El convento is pure heaven. Delicious breakfasts, friendly and welcoming staff. And Olhao itself also has so much to offer, trips to the islands and unspoilt beaches aswell as the market just a stones throw from the front door. No need for a car, we took the train to tavira for a great day trip aswell. The added joy of orange blossom scent filling the air.. plus we had wall to wall sunshine, this was at the end of March, I can’t recommend il convento enough. Can’t wait to go back!

Their locations and hotels are always special and usually also good value for money. They are one of my first ports of call when I plan a trip abroad.

Nice curated selection of properties which are generally good value for the quality of the accommodation. Descriptions are accurate. Efficient booking process and you do actually get a response from a person rather than a bot if you have any queries or issues, which is unfortunately becoming rarer.

All aspects combined to make for a really good holiday, but the company had a very straightforward booking process and had partnered with an excellent hotel.

Accurate reliable information on the two properties we stay at

Quinta dos Perfumes is in a beautiful & tranquil place, set amongst 21,000 orange trees, close to the coast and in easy reach of Tavira.

The rooms area a of a good standard, breakfast & dining excellent, and staff are exceptionally polite & very helpful.

Manoir du Guern is a beautiful place. We loved our room which was spacious, comfortable and tastefully furnished with antiques.
The owners are helpful and friendly. Breakfasts were copious, with homemade cakes, fresh bread, high quality jams, juices and coffee.
The only downside is that they do not provide evening meals and it is quite a drive to a decent restaurant along dark country roads. We are at the age when we don’t enjoy driving to unfamiliar places at night.

Great location and attentive staff.

Beautiful accommodation, just as described. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the pool was clean and inviting. An ideal base for a perfect holiday!

I-Escape is such a reliable source of great holidays.
I have used them for a number of years when wanting the reassurance of having a like minded person select possible holiday venues for me to choose from.
I particularly like the fact they flag up both the good aspects of a property as well as the bad. They scrutinise their selections very carefully and I suspect decline many of the properties submitted for inclusion.
I have never been disappointed.

Charming space, polite staff, good vibe.

Great experience. Highly knowledgeable staff which made the choices and booking process very simple. Would absolutely use again.

We have booked 5-6 places over the years through i-escape and they have never let us down. With a smaller selection of places for each location, it's easier to streamline what you are after and I trust their judgement. We have just stayed in Madeira and both hotels were exactly what we wanted.

Lanzarote retreat
We had an amazing time at house, very spacious and comfortable we loved the furnishings it was so rustic.set in the most bucolic surroundings so peaceful. Great base to explore the from , every day we loved the place a bit more. Our hosts were warm and friendly and helpful. If you’re looking for an authentic experience in peaceful surroundings this is the place for you!

A really well appointed, friendly Riad in the heart of the Medina in one of the more traditional neighbourhoods. The decor is tasteful and the staff friendly and very attentive, with multiple languages. The breakfast and traditional Moroccan food (I recommend the cooking class which includes a tour in the local area) are excellent. Like most riads, the bedrooms are tight - not much hanging space and no room for a case, so travel light! Also, the beds and pillows are very firm so if you need it soft, take a topper.

We suddenly had 5 days in the second week in September. Within hours i-Escape had fixed us up with Palmizana-Meneghella on an island off an island off Split in Croatia. It was great service, warm welcome, wild walking and superb swimming – five days of delight.

So far we've stayed in 3 iEscape-recommended boutique hotels (Italy, Morocco & India) and all three have been fantastic. The reviews gave accurate descriptions of these unique hotels we experienced. All 3 were so much better and cheaper than the bland chain hotels in the same areas.

We also used iEscape to book the Indian hotel which solved the problems we were having booking directly.
