Beautifully Restored Property with Heated Pool in Small Village

Beautifully restored, 3 bedroom 19th century property with stunning views of the Alps, private garden and pool located in the middle of the Luberon – ideal for relaxing, exploring and sport activities. Montjustin has 54 inhabitants, no through car traffic, no noise and no pollution. In the village there is a small club organizing weekly cultural events.

La Fenice is the original “mas” which has been carefully restored and tastefully decorated, with a stone fireplace and terracotta floor tiling throughout. The villa and the grounds, at the top of the village (the lane stops just past your back door) with incredible views of the Luberon national park were part of the old castle compound . The large garden opens into a panoramic view of the Luberon and the Alps. At an altitude of 600m, the nights in Montjustin are clear, beautiful and comfortable, even in the warmest summer days.

Two interconnecting stone vaults (wonderfully cool in summer) give the house a unique character. The kitchen, sited into one of them, has all modern amenities. The second stone vault is a combined living/dining room with open fireplace. Behind the kitchen there is a huge utility room.

There is ample living space. In addition to a combined living/dining room with open fireplace on the ground floor and a self-contained sitting or play area in the extension, there is a big upstairs lounge, also with Provencal fireplace, picture windows and doors on to one of the spacious terraces.

Outside, the quarter acre (1000 sq. m) garden offers panoramic views over the beautiful Luberon countryside and the Alps. It contains a 8 x 4m landscaped, heated floodlit pool treated with salt with night blanket, surrounding terraces and plentiful garden furniture.

Standard bookings are Saturday to Saturday. For other dates, please contact owner.

Magical house on a hill
If you are looking for a get-away from it all, Meir’s beautiful home on Montjustin is your place! The town is tiny - just a few residents - and you need to drive to nearby Cereste or Reillane (or longer drive to Manosque) for supplies, but once you’re stocked up, this very French and roomy home with a pool, petanque, yard, and more is the perfect spot. We loved making it our home for a week and hope to come again. One word of caution: lots of steps and hard surfaces - fine for us but wondered how a family with young children or elderly parents might fare. Another gem is the multiple dining areas - we tried them all! Breakfast on the balcony, lunch by the pool, and dinner on the front patio. House is well stocked and laundry machine and DW make living a breeze. The town is quiet - not a sound unless the local bar has a band. Happened once while we were there. Cool music and atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Beautiful location
The property was a very nice traditional French house on top of a ridge in the small village of Montjustin. The house was clean and tidy with everything we needed for the weeks stay. The pool was refreshing and lovely to dip into during the hot summer days. We played boule in the garden before walking to see the sunset over the luberon hills in the evening. The walks around the area are stunning and there are many beautiful villages, towns and sites to visit. Further away are lakes and activities (>1hr) away at the Verdon gorge and lake of Sainte-Croix. We also had a great night at the little restaurant in montjustin with live folk music. A great peaceful retreat for our party of 5 (4 adults and a 4 year old)

Unfortunately, overall a disappointment
When we arrived and met the local property manager, the pool was very dirty and the house musty smelling. We raised with the owner and he arranged a pool clean, but we were left with the feeling that the house is relatively uncared for, in terms of renting out. The local property manager really should've checked and prepared the property for our arrival, to make sure it was spick and span for our arrival. The pool by the way, collects insects and debris from nearby bushes very quickly, so once cleaned, it needs cleaning again within 15-20m minutes. This amount of cleaning really should be catered for by the owner, or at least, made very clear on the property description, so prospective renters are forewarned. The kitchen is well stocked but is grubby in places and touch points generally are a bit sticky with grime. The interior is dated generally, and whilst the fabric of the building could be described as nicely restored, the accommodation, pool and pool area are dated and tired. Also, the garden backs onto the local village Marie and square, where events happen most evenings. We found these pleasant, and we joined in on some, but the noise and lateness of hour could be considered intrusive for others. Monjustin itself is beautiful with amazing views of the Luberon and instant access to PR and GR routes. We enjoyed, as we're walkers. To sum up, we felt the rent was expensive and definitely, the description should be more clear about the issues, all mentioned above.

Truly special!
This is an absolutely beautiful property in a really special place. My husband and I and a friend spent a blissful week at La Fenice, in the tiny hilltop village of Montjustin and we wish we could have stayed longer. The house is rustic and charming and very well-equipped for guests. It's set in a large property with a beautiful pool and plenty of areas to sit and soak up or avoid the sun at all times of the day. The reservation, check-in and check-out processes could not have been easier (despite the fact that none of us speak French) and we felt like welcome guests from the minute we sent the reservation request. We would all love to return to La Fenice!

Excellent vacation 24 July - 1 August
We have just returned home after a great vacation at the Montjustin Fenice villa . The villa was very well equipped and clean, the swimming pool and the garden was great and the surroundings were breathtaking. Great early morning and evening walks through amazing local trails. The village is very quiet and relaxing. The location, in the middle of the Luberon area is very good - mostly short drives (1.5-2 hours drive at the most) to the great attractions of PROVENCE.

True Provence experience
If you would like a place that combines green surroundings, beautiful views and a "taste" of famous Provence, this is the place. As for accommodation, excellent in all respects - clean, comfortable and with (Provencal) style.

Great villa, great location
We spent a couple of weeks at the La Fenice villa, which we found on the web. Based on the reviews we had high expectations, which were exceeded by the reality. Wonderful, old restored house, with modern amenities, comfortable furniture, excellent beds, very well appointed kitchen, clean, well maintained property, including the pool. Even that it was the second half of October, the weather was great. Sunny and warm during the day, cool but not cold in the evenings. We took advantage of the small bistro next door, for a nice ( and cheap ) meal and drinks and enjoyed there a lively evening of French and gipsy music. Also, we made explored the numerous attractions in the Luberon, some we found out about in the “house book”. And of course we went to the famous Provence markets - the biggest and most traditional is less than half an hour away. The village is small and quaint, no commerce but the bistro which is open on weekends. We bought our baguettes and croissants in a village 15’ away, where there are 2 boulangeries, a very decent supermarket and other shops. As we speak some French, we could communicate with the locals, who were very friendly. In summary, we plan to come back!

Amazing stay!
I can't say enough about this villa. It was wonderful. The villa is situated atop a mountain with amazing views of the Luberon valley. The house was perfect for our stay. It was equipped with everything we could possible need. The house is spacious and private. The surrounding area is very peaceful. There are some great walking trails. Cereste is minutes away by car and has some very good restaurants. We spent Monday morning at the Forcalquier Market which is about one half hour away. We were met by Lauren who was very helpful and the owner Meir was always available by e-mail. I would definitely go back!

A best holiday in the heart of Provence
The house is located in a the peaceful village of Montjustin, with stunning views all around. Location is excellent for visiting the highly recommended Provence villages within no more then 0.5-1.5 hours beautiful scenery drives. We loved the house, the garden, the swimming pool. The house is best equipped for a convenient holiday. This time of the year is recommended for it's beautiful nature and agriculture views- green of the forests with the red carpets of the poppies, the yellow color of the acacia, the beginning of the Lavender blossoming and many more spring colors all over.

Schitterend huis in een schitterende omgeving
Midden in een piepklein dorpje, bovenop een heuvel, staat een bijzonder mooi huis. Vrijstaande villa, mooi gerenoveerd en van alle gemakken voorzien. En met een fantastisch mooi zwembad (zout, dus niet met chloor, dus beter voor je huid en ogen ). Erg vriendelijke mensen in het dorp. En een fantastisch mooi uitzicht vanaf het dorp naar de wijde omgeving. Lekker gewandeld en gefietst. Zeer vriendelijke eigenaar. Wij komen hier graag terug!
