What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
This is a practical, family-friendly self-catering option offering great value. Guests appreciate the secure environment, the enjoyable swimming pool, and the convenient location near Crique St. Lucia and the Esterel Mountains. While amenities are basic and air conditioning may be lacking, the cheerful atmosphere and helpful staff make for a pleasant stay.
"This is not a 5 star hotel. This is family cheap and cheerful deal where you have a flat and need to buy all the bits for all the meals you prepare. But it is family friendly, secure, there is a pool, a tennis table, a patch of common grass area for the kids to play, family members can chill, eat and it's not costing you a bomb. What else do you want?"
