Résidence calme et très bien entretenue. Beaux lauriers en fleurs, lavande...
Epicerie/bar symphatique
Village Olonzac et son marché le mardi matin - artisanal - très agréable - A pieds à travers les vignes depuis la résidence (environ 7km A/R)
Ballade autour de la résidence au milieu des oliviers, lacs et le long du Canal du Midi - Magnifique
Belles ballades à vélo possible également
Séjour de 5 jours...pas assez long car région très riche de choses à faire/voir.
J'y retournerai pour profiter également de l'histoire Cathare, Carcassonne, Narbonne, des vignobles avec visites et dégustation...

Un buen sitio para visitar la zona de carcassane, canal su midi y castillos cátaros, El sitio es muy bonito y agradable. El apartamento esta muy bien con su terraza y la gente del complejo es muy amable,aunque la limpieza y el mantenimiento del apartamento es un poco justo. Te lo tienes que limpiar tu o pagar 50€ en concepto de limpieza, sabanas y toallas no están incluidas en el precio 8€ por persona, fuimos con nuestra perrita por lo que pagamos 24€ más ,pero la perrita estuvo muy a gusto en general ir con perros por allí es muy agradable los aceptan muy bien. Disfrutamos mucho de nuestra estancia en Port Minervois

séjour agréable
séjour agréable seulement pour un court séjour car à part la piscine il y a pas d'activité gratuite car tout est payant, l'équipement fitness très vétuste, la situation géographique est pas top car il y a rien au alentour,pour le prix je trouve que c'est cher car rien est fournie dans la maison (pas drap, pas de papier toilette, pas d'éponge ni de liquide vaisselle) pour un court séjour de 2 nuits et vu le prix il aurait du faire un effort. en plus il vous demande 300 euros de caution non restituer à la fin du séjour

Establishment location very good, well kept site, nice village on the Canal du Midi, quiet environment. Extra charges for bed linen and towels not what one would expect. Gated community with controlled entry, safe. Comfortable and convenient for visiting local towns. Reasonably good value for money.

This is NOT a hotel but a vacation rental!
You need to bring your own sheet and towel (or rent this at a hefty price). This is a vacation rental - very plain and boring I must say. The check-in procedure is complex as you must check the inventory of your apartment, which is just a hassle. You need a key to go pretty much anywhere as there are locked gates all over the place - very inconvenient I must say. Horrible place basically. They nickle and dime you to death here. You are responsible for cleaning as well - and there are no cleaning supplies...

How to survive with no hot water, and other things
We arrived at the propertyl later than Reception hours. From the information we were given on the booking website there was no indication of the check in times. No phone number was given on our booking confirmation sheet so we were unable to contact the hotel.
The next morning maintenance staff undertook electrical work in the apartment and removed a lamp fitting. The next day we had luke warm water, and for the rest of our three day stay we had no hot water. We mentioned this matter to Reception but it was a Sunday and this may have been the reason no action was taken.
Although the bed was comfortable it felt cold and slightly damp. This may be due to the plastic lined mattress protector and the plasticised covering on the mattress.
It was not made clear on the booking website that we would be charged extra for apartment cleaning unless we undertook the cleaning ourselves.
It is true that Internet access is available in public areas but reception hours are limited and we would be expected to purchase drinks or food if we used the bar or cafeteria. So Internet was not always available unless you sat outside.
From the time of arrival until the final check was made of our apartment and its chattels it was hard to escape the feeling that as guests we were not trusted. A full list of each item present in the apartment as well as the condition of every possible fitting and fixture had to be checked by us soon after arrival and signed off at Reception. Then the whole process was repeated when we checked out. This is not the way to make guests feel welcome or to encourage recommendation of the property to their friends. The final straw was the 300 euro bond to be held by the property for eight working days after departure - information we did not have until our arrival.

Cost effective base for seeing area
The stay was very good value and staff were helpful and polite. English TV would have been nice and earlier opening of shop. Needed sun shading over patio. Generally no complaints allbeit off season.

Résidence mais pas hôtel
Ce lieu est une résidence de vacances avec différents pavillons mais il n'y a aucun service hotelier, les draps sont payants ainsi que les serviettes de toilettes, ceci majore pas mal le prix , 16 € par pers, Ok pour une semaine mais si c'est seulement pour 2 jours, c'est un peu cher.
En fait, ceci ressemble un peu à un motel comme aux US mais en moins bien.

RESIDENCE PORT MINERVOIS - HOMPS
petite maison très confortable et spacieuse (nous avions réservé une villa 3 couchages 6 personnes).
Terrasse agréable avec un bémol : pas d'auvent pour se protéger du soleil. Et comme tout est ensuite payant, la résidence monnaye également les parasols publicitaires. Les barbecues aussi sont payants. L'équipement est plutôt très bien dans l'ensemble. Néanmoins dans la cuisine, il aurait été bien d'avoir au moins 2 poêles (surtout qu'il s'agit d'une villa prévue pour 6 personnes). S'agissant des équipements extérieurs, les jeux enfants sont un peu limites (un toboggan inaccessible pour les tous petits, car pour grimper à l'escalier il y a une marche d'un mètre!). La piscine est également plus petite qu'elle ne parait en photo. Enfin, endroit très calme et agréable pour les familles avec jeunes enfants. Pour les ado, peut être un peu trop calme même si animations quelques soirs par semaine. Environnement général tres joli avec le canal du midi juste à cote.
