    Me and my friend were supposed to be backpacking outside Europe but due to some unfortunate events we needed to stay in France for a couple of days and then get back home quickly. We booked Utopia home on a very short one day notice and I’m super...

Cooper
Utopia Island, also known as the House of Utopia, was constructed in the 1970s by the internationally renowned architect and designer, Marc-Held, and fabricated entirely in Corten steel. With 390 square meters of living space, this property, resembling a cruise ship, is perched on stilts amidst a 5000-square-meter pond surrounded by wild birds. A pool with a terrace overlooks the surrounding landscape.
Welcome to our charming guesthouse in the heart of La Vallée de Chevreuse. Here, we offer you a unique experience that combines warm hospitality, comfort, and local charm. Come to unwind, explore, and savor memorable moments. We look forward to welcoming you to our home.
In this residential neighborhood of Gif-sur-Yvette, tranquility reigns supreme. This entirely wooded area, just a stone's throw away from the city's historic center, is the perfect place to rejuvenate in a privileged environment. The town combines a village atmosphere with vibrancy, offering numerous shops and services in the city center. There are plenty of road and rail connections, allowing for quick access to Versailles and Paris.
