Why Moliets?
Moliets is known as something of an oasis amongst the endless pines of western Europe's largest forest. It's basically a big playground! Activities include: surfing, cycling, golf, tennis, adventure parc, horse-riding, kayaking, etc etc. Many places of interest are within an hour's drive. It's an ideal destination for an active and varied sea-side holiday.

A smart, modern and very well-equipped holiday villa.
Villa Aliénor is a detached property on a development of 50 villas, 800m from Chênes-Liéges beach (a lovely 'Plage Verte' with reduced access for cars, the one locals prefer), and approx. 1.5-2 kms from Moliets-Plage central beach. It's half-French, half-English owners have taken care to give the villa many extras compared to other villas at this site, by including DVD player, baby equipment, fenced swimming pool (can be heated), wifi, modern kitchen, and by using very good quality, modern furniture and furnishings. It adds up to being a very good, and more homely, alternative to Moliets' 'Villa Resort' villas.
Entrance:
Outside a driveway leads to parking for 2-3 cars in an underground garage, where there's also storage for bikes, surf boards, etc. (A second 'drinks' fridge is also located down here.) A short set of steps lead to the front door.
Inside:
Inside, the villa comprises: good-sized hallway with room for luggage, shoes, etc, leading into a very spacious, double-height lounge and dining area. The dining table sits in a bay window overlooking the garden; it seats up to 8 people. The lounge area includes fireplace, and three sofas (two 3-seaters and one 2-seater one), TV & DVD player. A gallery-style kitchen is separated from the lounge at one end by a breakfast bar, with bar stools. It is fully equipped, including dishwasher, microwave, fridge-freezer and washing machine.
The living dining/kitchen area is in the centre of two corridors providing access to the bedroom/bathroom areas on either side. On one side is a master double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, and a twin bedroom with en-suite walk-in shower (new for 2019 season). On the other side is a second double room, another double room with double bed (can be separated into singles) and bunk-beds, and family bathroom (with jacuzzi bath). The bedrooms are quite simply but comfortably furnished. The bath and shower rooms are modern and good quality.There are 2 separate wc's.
A staircase leads from the living room to a mezzanine 'play area' level with a selection of toys, small TV with DVD player, and sofa. (Can be closed off by stair gate if needed.)
Overall the interior is approximately 140m2 altogether, and feels light and spacious.
Outside:
Glass patio doors lead from the living room to the enclosed rear garden overlooking the golf-course. It comprises: a large decked terrace including covered area with garden table and chairs, 5 sunloungers, fenced 10m x 5m swimming pool and small grassed area to the side. The pool depth ranges from 1m - 1.9m. The pool is unheated and open from April to October (the water is fresh in the early part of the season!) Currently naked-flame barbecues are banned in Moliets, so a particular plus of Villa Aliénor is the plancha (electric grill/barbecue) so you won't be denied the pleasure of cooking outside.
In all, Villa Aliénor is a ideal place for one or two families to enjoy the forests, beaches and activities of a lovely part of Aquitaine.
