If you are looking for houses in Fontainebleau try www.bonarpart.org although most houses there are of lower quality (as in less maintained by less dedicated landlords in my experience) which charges no fee, or contact Executive Solutions through the Insead website. They are not fairly helpful and put together some little packages for you (also for mobile phones, car rental, etc...). I find Moretz sur Loing, Bourron Marlotte, Samois sur Seine and Barbizon lovely villages but I have not been to all of the places around here. I live in Chailly en Biere, half way between the lovely village of painters of Barbizon and Carrefour, or walking the delicate line between culture and consumerism.

If you are looking for accommodation in Singapore, the two places where most students gathered are Dover Parkview and Heritage View, both on Dover Rise, about 5 min walk from Campus. Some choose to live close to Holland Village ($3 for a taxi ride to Insead). Insead MBA Office can help you with a list of agents and you can use NetVestibule to find people to share with. If your agent is a crook, please report it to Insead so that they do not recommend this person anymore. Heritage is newer, looks nicer, has more pools but none of them are suitable for laps and smaller appartments. Dover Parkview is older, fewer pools, looks as crappy as a luxury condo can look, has a nice big swimming pool, terrace appartments and larger interiors. I lived at Heritage and loved it.
