Le Mazet de Manon in Provence
No sooner did our April cover story about the world's best villa vacations hit newsstands than did A&K Villas, the luxury home rental agency, alert us to an intriguing Easter week deal being offered by Adam Coats, one of the specialists recognized in our piece as an expert on homes across Europe.
In recognition of the holiday, as well as the Royal Wedding, A&K Villas is offering 10 nights for the price of 7 in 11 homes across Italy and France, including the lovely Mazet de Manon in the heart of Provence, pictured. While some of the properties can sleep a crowd, others have as few as three bedrooms, making them appropriate for a smaller group of travelers. The full list of options, which range in price from $3,248 for three bedrooms to $15,650 for seven for the full 10 days is on A&K's Easter special page.
There's no book by date for this deal, but the travel dates are firm. For Italy, they're April 22 to May 2; in France, you'll need to visit April 23 to May 3.
With A&K's local representative's on call and providing tips and advice, these are incredibly good deals.
