Three cities, three quartiers

We only stay where we walk.

We bought the first key in 2015 in Paris. Eleven years later we open doors in three cities — and we still do the marché every Sunday.

Direct booking

The same maison,
−10% in fees.

You can find some of our apartments on Airbnb and Booking. We list them there because that's where travelers look. But the platforms add fees on top. Book here and the difference comes to you, not them.

Example · Marais 3-bed · 7 nights

On Airbnb €1,715
Book direct €1,540

Same apartment, same dates. €175 in your pocket — and the host actually picks up the phone.

What guests said this year

"We've stayed in three of their apartments now. Every time the keys are exactly where they said, the place is exactly as in the photos, and someone is texting back within ten minutes if we ask anything at all."

"The flat in Le Marais was beyond expectations. Sophie from the équipe came to greet us, recommended the boulangerie down the street, and we ended up going there every morning. The kind of stay that makes you want to come back."

"Easy booking, no commission scam, fair price. Self check-in worked at midnight after a delayed Eurostar. Apartment was spotless and exactly as shown."

"We did Bordeaux for our anniversary. Beautiful Chartrons flat with a vélo waiting at the door. The team's recommendation for dinner at L'Univerre was perfect — small details that turn a weekend into a memory."

"Booked through Lavie Maison directly instead of Airbnb after a friend recommended. Same apartment, €80 cheaper, and the host actually picks up the phone. No reason to ever go back to platforms."

"Our second stay in Nice with them. The Promenade flat is even better than the photos — and they remembered we travel with our dog. Animaux acceptés is not just on paper."
