The Marriott’s Village d’ile-de-France is situated in Bailly- Romainvilliers, 40 km away from the Charles De Gaulle Airport. This stunning countryside resort is also a golf resort with beautiful villas and townhomes perfect for a family vacation.
During our last visit to Marriott Village, and taking a break from writing in this blog and at kesihatanalternatif.com, we had the opportunity to stay at one of the beautiful townhouses. The townhouse is facing the pond and near the reception area. Since we came during the winter, we get to witness a beautiful moment of the whole area covered with snow. The decoration and amenities of the townhouse were excellent. You can also see ducks and swan wandering around the lake, and it was a beautiful sight.
Although we loved the place, we wanted to do more than just relaxing at the resort. Besides the city, which is a 55 minutes train ride from Chessy station. We wanted something else to visit while staying at the village.
We found out there’s plenty of great attractions to visit too.
Like taking a day trip to French chateaus, gardens and beautiful countryside, which are quite close from the resort.
Below are some ideas on what to do near Marriott Village.
