Villa Vivante

Stay at Villa Vivante in Fontainebleau, France

The most stunning, shared house available exclusively to INSEAD MBA’s. Created by INSEAD Alumni for INSEAD MBA’s. Attention to detail from personal experience.

Welcome to Villa Vivante...

Villa Vivante was launched in 2002 as we identified a Huge Gap in the market – There were always shared houses with 3 or 4 bedrooms but being INSEAD Alumni we knew that a Large shared house of 10+ MBAs , provided it was big enough,  would work – the other change was to put all the bills in the company name and offer an All Inclusive rent – this had never been done ….now it is the standard  –  An extensive renovation recently of the entire outside of the house has finished. There is a stunning open plan kitchen / dining room leading out onto a sunny courtyard;  11 large well appointed bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, 12 wc, 2 kitchens,  spacious shared living areas, large garden ( 1,500m sq) & off street parking.

Great Connectivity

4 Fibre Optique WiFi routers with the fastest speed possible –  In a great location, 200m from Carrefour supermarket; 100m from a Post office and 800m from the Train Station; regular buses into town for INSEAD; 15 min bike ride  

Spacious Living Areas

Set over Four floors, with amazing communal areas for relaxing & entertaining; huge garden for summer gatherings and BBQ; 2 kitchens for convenience; now in its 22nd  Year 

Affordable Rooms

Room rates start from € 700 per month and include most of the usual bills. There are no surprises
