The apartment is ideally situated in the Var region so within a couple hours to Provence, Cote D'Azure and the Luberon. The community-shared swimming pool is large, clean and ideal for families with kids, but with many rules and limited hours so be sure to follow accordingly.
The apartment is clean, charming, and fully-equipped. The Internet was strong downstairs, but a bit spotty upstairs. The AC saved us during the month of August. The village is absolutely wonderful. "Le Cafe" is ideal for an aperitif, the Bistro Gourmand is delicious and perfect for families, and the Auberge is the quintessential french goumet experience, so a robust appetite is a must. The locals are extremely kind and welcoming. Our kids could freely roam, discover, whilst practicing their French in the grocery or boulangerie.
The village is nestled among vineyards and greenery, quiet, and perfect for young families, retirees, etc. The proximity to St. Tropez makes for a good day trip, but the daily traffic in August can be daunting. There are numerous wineries, beaches, and medieval villages surrounding La Mole, so we had something to do or see all thirty days of our adventure.
We visited nearly every beach in the Var and our favorite was Pampelonne near La Sirena so away from the craziness. The water is clear, there is ample beach space, and if you arrive by 10:00 am, there is no problem for parking. Other beaches require hiking, parking difficulties, and the water is not as clear and blue.
We would absolutely return to La Mole, and we truly enjoyed our stay at this provencale haven. We thank our hosts who were most gracious, helpful, and accommodating, and we thank La Mole for its incredible hospitality and beauty.
We would recommend for all.
