Nous avons passé 2 nuits à bord du Catamaran Astérix (Gilles nous surclassé car le Falbala avait une maintenance en cours). Accueil très sympa et précis de Gilles. Couchage confortable et fait à notre arrivée. Emplacement en bout de ponton appréciable: pas de voisins d’un côté. Nous n’avons pas pu faire de sortie en mer (imprévu personnel) mais la proposition de Gilles avait l’air très sympa. Nous recommandons cette expérience !

Calme et dépaysement

Superbe séjour sur ce bateau bien rénové. Espace minimaliste mais tout confort. L'emplacement sur le petit port calme de L'Epine est impeccable, au calme et bien orienté. Gilles est un hôte passionné et très attachant! Une très belle découverte de Noirmoutier.

Chouette expérience !

Nous avons passé une semaine à bord et sommes plus que satisfaits de notre séjour ! Le bateau est très confortable, très bien équipé, et super bien situé dans le port, en bout de ponton avec vue sur la sortie du port et la mer. En octobre, le temps est encore doux et le soleil chauffe bien sur le pont, il est agréable d'y boire un verre en compagnie des goélands et des cormorans. Gilles, le propriétaire et capitaine du bateau nous a emmené sur l'île d'Yeu avec nos vélos pour une journée, super expérience. Gilles est très à l'écoute de ses hôtes et fait tout pour qu'ils se sentent bien, belle expérience que nous avons hâte de renouveler.
