we had the 1 bed cottage ,worked out just fine for a family of 4.  The owner is very helpful and the place is spotless and comfortable

The Air conditioning was very effective , very important in August ,  twin units in the living room plus another in the bedroom

There was a BBQ to use ,  plenty of bikes , and the pool was sublime.  It is unheated but our two small kids spent about 90 mins daily in it , there are trees which shade parts of the pool in the morning and part in the evening, and there are stupendous views from the pool area.  If you can't relax here , you need a good psychiatrist

as good as it gets

We were initially booked in the owners hotel in Apt, but due to a booking error we ended up in La Tomate apartment at La Providence. While we had planned to stay in town for the immediate access to restaurants and bars, we ended up loving the quiet tranquility that La Providence offered. Will break up the review into sections:

La Providence:
It is 5 minutes drive outside of Apt town center (too far to walk) and is off the main road and surrounded by lavender fields (which in late July had already turned grayish)and rolling hills - very pretty. It (a hamlet) is composed of several buildings - one that the owner lives in and several holiday rentals. The grounds are well kept and the owners friendly dog paid us a visit each evening. Breakfast is taken in a building in the center of the hamlet and is composed of croissants, baguettes, yoghurts, fresh fruit, juices, and an espresso machine. All very nice and provided a good start to our day of touring. All buildings have been wonderfully restored and tastefully decorated. There is a very nice pool and some deck chairs with shade available. Pool was great as it was so hot! The only note is that the flowers surrounding the pool invite bees but don't bother them and they won't bother you.

La Tomate - the apartment:
Great size for a family and nicely decorated. On the main floor is a sitting area and a kitchenette (fridge, sink and small microwave). It was perfect for light meals. The toilet is also located off of the main living room. Additionally the main bedroom is located on the floor with a nice ensuite and a big shower. Bed is comfortable and plenty of room to move around. Being an old building the walls are very thick and while they made the interior cooler than the outside during a very hot July it was still warm. Would suggest that some fans be added (or on request) to make it more comfortable especially as leaving the windows open at night invite mosquitos inside. On that note - you are in the country and there will be bugs -- but it was worth putting up with them for the location and how nice the property was overall. Upstairs in the loft there are two twin beds that were perfect for our teenage boys. Down a few stairs from the kitchen was a interesting cave like bathroom with a massive tub. What was great though was the terrace where we enjoyed wine, cheese and snacks while enjoying the beautiful view. Great way to end a day of touring the Luberon. 

Jerome the owner was a gracious host and provided touring ideas, including where we could still find lavender before it was harvested - tip head to the higher elevations around Sault if late into harvest season. 

Location:
We found La Providence and Apt to be a great central location from which to explore the Luberon. The towns of L'Isle Sur La Sorge, Lourmarin, Menerebes, Sault, Roussillion, Gordes, and everything in between were 10 to 40 minutes away making it a very central location. We also ventured a bit further to Gigondas - easily doable and a beautiful drive.

Would recommend La Providence especially if you are looking for quiet and serene with beautiful views to go with your wine.

Beautiful country lodging

The owner cencelled my reservation 4 hours before my arriving.The reason why hotel cencelled my reservation is I DELEYED 4 hours  not to phone them. Reservation was made by booking.com,  andI I had documant. No mail  to me as cencelletion.   
My comment is the expression of my experience with hotel staff..My information is not second-hand information, rumors, or quotations from other sources in my review. and coming from my expiriens with the stuff of hotel. . Everything I wrote is true. and can be confirm by person at the reception from where i Phone hotel. 

 Where we should sleep and look for another hotel at 21 h. And yet rhe owner  TOLD ME That is my problem. Very uncultural conversation  was from his side.
I beleve that somebody again will stay in the middle of night at the street, becouse hotel calculate that sombody else is bettter. And for sure it is important information for the people who are  going to make  reservation in this hotel it does not  mean they will sleep in it. And yet, it can happen just before their arriving.
