    LES AMIEUX Just got back from two glorious weeks at the site, perfect for the family seeking a safe environment, good swimming pools, nice clean basic mobile home with nice size hedges to keep you private. This is a family site, so don't expect silence and you will have to compete for a sunbed. However the children do need to be entertained and there was no shortage of friends for them to play with, leaving me and the wife with our feet up enjoying the sunshine. Well positioned for the beach and a cyclists heaven!
    It is a family site and that comes with a certain amount of making do, that said if you can live with a little sharing and having to say hello and speaking with your neighbours. Then i am sure you will have the most pleasant fortnight like we had, weather providing.

    After all the bad reviews I was expecting the worst, BUT St Jean de Monts, Les Amiaux is not as bad as portrayed. The pools were good, Ok not the best lifeguarding, the bar was expensive but no more than others, just buy elsewhere and drink outside the van. Great location just north of St Jean. Good access to the Vendee cycle path at the back. This is as good as other sites we have stayed at (9 years of visits) and worth considering.

    We visited Vendee, St Jean de Monts, Les Amiaux this year (Aug) for a week and a day (to made clear why later) and was very pleased with it indeed. it's a very clean and well organized site, is a little on the costly side as far as the shop, bar and take out are concerned though.

    All facilities are clean and well looked after. The staff at times were "by the book" but on the whole easy going and coped even with my (really) bad french and when I gave up and resorted to english - the staff repli ...

    Just got back from Les Amiaux. Never again!

    We reached the site at 10.45 pm off a ryanair flight. The reception staff were hard to find but by the time we found someone, who didnt speak a word of english, it was 11pm and the barrier was down and they refused to open it to let us in. So we had to carry all our bags and find the caravan ourselves. No help offered.
    A catalogue of errors followed, including being asked to leave the bar while on my laptop unless I bought another overpriced drink. ...

    Having read some of the reviews I must be visiting a different site. We have been going to Vendee, St Jean de Monts, Les Amiaux for the last 5 years, this is a fantastic site, clean, large private pitches, friendly staff, not expensive, great location, totally relaxing. We visit at the start of the season June/July so have never seen the site full, I could imagine in August when its packed then I would see the site in a different light, which is why I don't go in August. If you want the kids ent ...

    We have holidayed on this site from 1997 nearly every year, the staff were always very helpful and the manager doesn't have any confidence in speaking English but always went out of his way to help. We even left a site down in Bordeaux that the staff were horrible and drove back up to here where we knew there would be a welcome!! My children aging from 15, 13, 10 9, would totally recomend the pools disco and campsite. I don't believe for one minute that the manager would not change a pitch becau ...

    If you like Butlins by the Sea, this is definitely the place to be! We should have stayed 7 nights, but only stayed one, that's how good the pitch was!! We had asked for a large pitch as we had a twin axle, this was booked months previously, but we were given a very small and tight space. We were also parked next to the 'dog poo' tree, where every dog on site must have been to do a 'poo'!! We asked could we be moved. but the Site Manager was incredibly unhelpful. So we moved ourselves the n ...

    We booked this holiday through Sandpiper on the recommendation of friends. Vacansoleil bought Sandpiper out in the meantime and moved the caravans around which left us on the edge of the main thoroughfare opposite a toddler park which became a meeting place for teenagers throughout every single night of our stay. Despite complaints from us and other holidaymakers the site did nothing and it was up to us to move them on every night, sometimes several times.
    We drove to the beach as the brochure s ...

    I would recommend this site to anyone with children. If you are after noisy late night entertainment then it probably won't be for you. There are excellent beaches close by so our choice not to use the pool did not hamper the holiday. I had read reviews from people before we left, some complaining about the condition of toilets or location of the tent but to be honest these were unfounded. As someone who is fussy, both myself and my wife could find no fault with the toilets or showers. In fact, ...

    This was our first and last holiday of this kind and at £1700 we could have rented a villa for far less. The pools were dingy, overcrowded and couldn't see any lifeguards. Plus unsuitable depths for small children despite the site being advertised as ideal for school-age children. The entertainment was a French clown who spewed a monologue, threw a teddy in the air then went off. Awful. The kid's disco was one (embarassed) man and his headset who clearly wanted to be somewhere far more ...

    Les Amiaux in St Jean de Monts in the Vendee is a large site seperated into two parts by an underpass. The second and larger side had a more open feel to it but both sides were very acceptable.
    An easy 10 minute drive or 45 minute walk along the beach to St Jean De Monts.
    All in all a great, relaxing campsite.
