The only negative relating to this stay was the weather, and we don’t hold the VRBO manager responsible for that. And the weather could have been much worse. It was really just a little too cold for those of us from Hawaii.
Hundreds, perhaps thousands, braved the cold to walk out to Mont St Michel, and there were people wading in the water to the side of the raised road and walkway.
We enjoyed a very nice dinner at the recommended restaurant just across the street in front of our house. The house, itself, was very well appointed with everything that we needed. With the manager living right next door, there would have been no problem getting assistance if we needed help with anything, but everything worked just fine.
The WiFi was a little bit weak in the house, but it worked. It did work better at the table just outside the back door, since the router is set up on that side of the house.
I would say that we hope to return some day, but at 76, living in Hawaii, that is a fairly unrealistic wish.

We hope that VRBO will take note and remove the listing.
My wife and I, both in our 70s, rented this unit for three nights, from July 5 to July 7, 2019. We rented based on the VRBO listing mainly because of the 40 on-line pictures and the promise that the unit is handicapped accessible.
Prior to embarking on our trip, we realized that there was something odd about the pictures: they depict more rooms than the unit was listed for, e.g., at least three different bedrooms, and two different kitchens. It seems now that the owner was mixing together pictures of two different units, a nicer, accessible downstairs unit and a very inferior, cramped upstairs unit.
We contacted the owner by email to clarify the situation. We
received no reply from him.
The on-line occupancy calendar on the VRBO site showed no other rentals of the unit for the weeks prior to our dates.
We arrived in Beauvoir on July 5 and proceeded to the unit that we thought we had rented---the nicer downstairs unit, depicted in most the pictures---only to find a couple from Austria already ensconced there. They said they had rented the unit from another site six months prior. The owner's mother came over and gave us a key to the upstairs unit. We protested that this was not what we rented, but she spoke no English and we could not understand her French. She said that the owner would come over in the evening to talk with us. He never showed up during the three days we stayed. We emailed him with complaints but he never responded.
Here are some of the misleading parts of the ad:
1. Of the 40 photos, only seven in fact appear to depict parts of the unit we were given---the pictures numbered 10, 12, 13, 24, 26, 31, and 32. As you can see, those pictures show a cramped upper-story unit, with eaves that make the actual walkable space in the unit extremely small. One cannot stand upright in most of the unit. My wife bumped her head on the walls several times.
2. The actual unit was accessible only via a narrow, tall staircase, which contradicts the promise that the unit is "wheelchair accessible".
3. The ad says that unit has two bedrooms, but it has only one. The ad says that the unit sleeps 6 people but there is only a single bedroom with a bed that sleeps two, plus a single day bed and a small crib. The ad says that the bathroom has one large sink for two people, but it had only a tiny pedestal sink.

We stayed only 2 nights in this charming little house and wish it was longer. This is a great location to visit Mont Saint-Michele and the surrounding areas. It was summer when we visited and the gardens were in full bloom and there was a nice sitting area right out front to relax. There was plenty of space for our family of 4 (2 adults + 2 kids). The kids enjoyed the trampoline in the yard. We were in the downstairs unit and someone else had the upstairs unit, but they had their own separate entrance and it's all completely separate and locked, unless you have a large group and then you can open it up. We couldn't even hear anything from upstairs the entire time we were there.
The owner is extremely nice and speaks English better than our French, which was helpful. He made some restaurant recommendations and explained how to walk up to Mont Saint-Michele. From the house all the way to the top of the abbey is 2.9 miles, but it's flat until you get to the island. You can also drive closer and walk or take a bus, but parking is 14 Euros and the walk was nice.
Overall I highly recommend this property and think it is even nicer looking than the pictures.

This property has been modernised and all the appliances in the kitchen and the bathroom function well. It is a few minutes drive to the car park from where you can catch the shuttle bus to mont st michel (it's not possible to drive all the way to mt st michel). There are also a few restaurants and shops just over the road and the owner lives next door in case of any issues. The house is divided into two (upstairs and downstairs) although no one was staying in the other part when we were there

We had a lovely stay. Hilaire was the perfect host! Just the right size of Home for our family and outstanding for children. Our host even let the kids collect their own eggs from his chickens! Walk a few feet and you can see Mont St Michele in front of you, even the little town where the home is located is so charming. Thanks Hilaire!
