The owners Phil and Emma have gone to a lot of trouble to create a very relaxing and appealing space for adults and children alike.

The apartments are well proportioned and kitted out with everything you need and as we found if there is something extra you need you just ask . It’s very child friendly with plastic cutlery and crockery , step for bathroom and potty seats etc so you don’t need to worry about carrying kit ! Beach/ Pool towels are also thoughtfully provided alongside linens for the apartment .

The complex is very pretty and VERY safe ! The apartments are around a central courtyard which houses the communal bar ( we enjoyed that .. more later) and picnic seating and sofas and the kids club . There are 3 pools ( incl a kiddy splash ) and a very well set out playground with trampoline , zip wire , slide , ping pong , mini golf . The children loved it . Plus plenty of inflatables to borrow by the pool .

Catering wise a lovely brekkie of croissants with spreads, tea,coffee and juice and homegrown figs and grapes is laid out every morning . On arrival the hosts had kindly left us a welcome pack incl a meal for that evening and some drinks which were very welcome . The week we were there we also had one evening meal catered ( delicious fresh paella) , one pizza night ( made to order) and a BBQ one lunchtime . There is also a freezer with ready meals should you need but with supermarkets near by its very easy to purchase whatever else you fancy . BBQ facilities also provided with the apartment on the terrace which was handy .

Evenings can be spent in the bar , with children playing around you - it’s a secure complex so as a parent that is a big plus for us . Red, White and Rose is provided along with beer and my fav was the coffee machine also at the bar available all day allowing for a nice cup when kids were in kids club in the morning ! We also found our baby monitor worked outside so when kids were in bed we were able to sit outside with a glass of wine and chat to the other guests .

Kids Club is run by Emma and other staff - my two loved it as a host of activities to keep them busy as well as toys and arts and crafts. It gave us a couple of hours to lie by the pool and read our books .

The owners are very hands on and very welcoming and are keen to ensure you have all you need which is really lovely. There is also baby sitting provided one evening should you wish to avail of that .

All in all I would highly recommend IR for families with younger children . It’s so well set up and you will def get some relaxation time ... thank you Phil, Emma and the team for a lovely holiday . We hope to be back ! More

  Imagine Rousillon was just the holiday we were looking for. Fabulous location, it can be as quiet or as busy as you want it to be. Starting with Phil, Emma... read more and their lovely children, we felt so welcome and informed of everything. Especially when our...More

  We really enjoyed our holiday at Imagine. It’s a great self catering option in a beautiful and quiet setting which adds a few very nice touches designed for families... read more with young children. There’s some added extras such as the availability of a kids club for three hours each day giving parents a chance to have a coffee, read a book or relax by the pool. I was very impressed by the ladies that ran the kids club . The way the hotel is laid out means that most apartments converge on or overlook a central area which is close to the outdoor seating area and kids club. It’s very sociable while ensuring you still have privacy . We enjoyed a few glasses of wine with the other parents who were all like minded exhausted parents in need of a break. A welcome feature for us was the bbq on our terrace as we used this frequently after we put the kids to bed.
The apartments are beautiful and properly stocked with utensils etc including toys for kids and movies /dvds.
You absolutely need a car as it’s largely self catering and there is no restaurant on site and it’s relatively remote so you will need supplies from the supermarket a few kms away but we had some lovely evenings where the owners held a catered paella or pizza night . There is also a freezer with some pizzas etc There is a self service bar area stocked with tea/coffee and wine.

The location is stunning set in vineyards. Theres even a wine shop located next door selling wines produced in the vineyard.
Breakfast is coffee and croissants served at approx 9 am. Most parents are up much earlier so ensure you think about this. It was more of a mid-morning snack for us!

Lastly it offers the opportunity to visit some stunning locations and Phil and Emma gave us plenty of tips off the beaten track including an old village up in the mountains.

Its not cheap but if you can afford it , it will offer a relaxing holiday for parents and a safe and friendly environment for children in a beautiful location.
It’s made me rethink the type of holiday that I want with my family . No more large resorts with everyone fighting for beds at 6am for us!!

I would go back !

  A lovely little secluded resort. We have just returned from a week's stay with an 8 and 5 year old. Phil is very welcoming and accommodating. Nothing is too much... read more trouble. Emma ran a fantastic kids club every morning with well thought through activities that could engage all ages at the same time. She also ran fantastic personal fitness classes and gave a lovely relaxing free massage. The bar area was very welcoming. We stayed in Aigrette apartment which had air conditioning in the bedrooms that was very welcome. The main area of the apartment stayed cool enough as it has a high ceiling. It was nice for the children to have other children around them to play with if they wanted. It was well organised and very friendly. We could easily have stayed longer and hope to return. We miss it already! More
