Pointe Milou, and the sunset it is known for
Pointe Milou is a quiet residential point on the north coast, set on rock with no beach of its own. What it has is the west-facing horizon, and Danse des Étoiles is built to face it, the reason to take a house here is the light at the end of the day, not the sand. The nearest beach to swim from is Lorient, a short drive off, and the restaurants of the north coast are close. If your trip needs a beach at the door, this is not it, and I would rather tell you now.
What the house has
Five suites sleeping ten, bedrooms with their own bathrooms, which is part of why groups of adults like it, though I will confirm the exact layout for your party before you book rather than assume. There is a private pool, a fitness and massage area, a full kitchen, air conditioning, wifi and high-speed internet, and a television. An airport shuttle is included, and the house is oriented for privacy and the view.
Practical notes before you book
Rent cars. Pointe Milou is residential and on rock, so nothing is within walking distance and ten people will want more than one vehicle. With no beach on the point, the pool and the terrace are where the days happen, and the sunset is the fixed event of the evening. Lorient beach and dinner are a short drive away.
Who this house is really for
A family or a group of friends who want privacy, five proper suites, and the sunset as the centre of the trip. Ten guests suits a couple of families or a group of couples who each want their own bathroom. The fitness and massage area makes it a house you stay in and use. If waking up onto a beach is what you are after, choose a beach address and I will help you find it.

Common questions
Why five suites rather than five bedrooms?
Each of the five bedrooms has its own bathroom, which is why groups of adults or several couples tend to like it. I will still confirm the exact layout for your group before you book rather than assume it fits.
Is there a beach nearby?
Not on the point, Pointe Milou is rock, and Danse des Étoiles is about the sunset and the view. Lorient beach is a short drive for swimming, and the north-coast restaurants are close.
What is the fitness and massage area?
There is a dedicated space in the house for fitness and for massage. I will confirm exactly how it is set up, and arrange a therapist on the island if you would like one, when you send your dates.
Rates and availability
Rates depend on the season and the length of stay, so I quote them case by case rather than publishing a figure that would be wrong half the year. Tell me your dates and who is travelling, and I come back with the real number and what is still open.
